So, I saw Transformers: Age of Extinction this weekend. I know, I know. I’ve become part of the problem and not the solution. For that I am sorry.

My road to redemption begins today with this post of the greatest superhero theme song ever made. It’s Optimus Prime’s theme song from the best Transformers film. Live-action it is not, but the animated film which came out during the mid-80’s.

Stan Bush pretty much made his career on this hit single which remains a nostalgic favorite of the 80’s crowd. This is a song which kids of my generation sung over and over right up to now and we don’t see ourselves stopping anytime soon.

Without further ado, here’s “The Touch”.

The Touch

You’ve got the touch, you’ve got the power.
Yeah.

After all is said and done, you never walk,
you never run, you’re a winner.
You got the moves, you know the streets,
break the rules, take the heat, you’re nobody’s fool.
You’re at your best when the going gets rough,
You’ve been put to the test but it’s never enough.

You got the the touch, you got the power.
When all hell’s breaking loose,
you’ll be right in the eye of the storm.
You got the heart, you got the motion.
You know that when things get too tough,
you got the touch.

You never bend, you never break, you seem to know
just what it takes. You’re a fighter
It’s in the blood, it’s in the will, it’s in the mighty
hands of steel. When you’re standin your ground.
And you never get hit when you’re back’s to the wall
gonna fight till the end and you’re taking it all.

You got the touch, you got the power,
when all hell’s breaking loose,
you’ll be right in the eye of the storm.
You got the heart, you got the motion.
You know that when things get too tough, you got the touch.

You’re fighting fire with fire.
You know you got the touch.

You’re at your best when the going gets rough,
you’ve been put to the test but it’s never enough.
You got the touch, you got the power.
Yeah.
