But beyond their influence, Cheap Trick has always been about creating songs that are just plain fun to listen to.
Cheap Trick is always great listening. Great show band. If you understand music, you understand why they're great.
Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird. Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away. YEAH YEAH...
One of the greatest rock songs ever written. Thanks Rick!
This is clearly Cheap Trick's best song! It is insanely catchy and simple. Most people don't understand that even simple beats are hard to come up with, especially ones like I Want You to Want Me.
Okay, except maybe for Surrender, this is Cheap Trick's biggest song.
Pretty much everyone feels this way at some point in their life.
My two-year-old son danced to this one in the store, and we sang it together loud and clear as we danced in the living room - a memory I'm keeping forever!
This is clearly Cheap Trick's number one song. How can it be number two? The lyric and the tune of this song are too good.
I can't even count how many times I played this within the two months since I first heard this song. Absolutely brilliant!
This song is just magnificent. It has this amazing change of atmosphere, from totally positive to darker, almost haunting. Great song.
I just love this song and the YouTube clip of it. They were a true rock band of the late 70s, and Rick Neilson, you still rock today.
Whenever I suffer from insomnia, I can't stop thinking about this song.
Seriously, guys, this is one of their underrated songs. It's one of the best power ballads of the 80s. It was huge in Australia!
Awesome song with a great chorus.
Great song because of Rick Nielsen singing on it.
It's simply melodious, sweet, and beautiful. Makes you swoon over it. You'll fall in love with this piece of amazing.
The Newcomers
Great song with a great edgy intro, from the film Roadie. This song is an all-time favorite!
Their greatest song of all time. I love this song with the weird helicopter sounds and keyboards. This song ROCKS!
Should be higher than Surrender.
Great cover by Cheap Trick of the epic Elvis song.
The live version at Budokan took them to another level altogether!
Such a good song, I can't even describe it.
Remarkable song! The way the pace changes throughout is nothing I've heard before.
How did this song not even make the list? Definitely the most fun of their songs. Perhaps not necessarily as good as Surrender or Dream Police, but it definitely deserved to be, you know, present.
This list is terrible as I'm having to try to add Downed and Taxman, Mr. Thief. Who are these people voting on here anyway? For newbies to Cheap Trick, you must check out these two tunes immediately!
