- My daughter and I have been watching this music video a lot on TH-cam. Unfortunately the only version of it online is a 320x240 tape transfer.
I decided to restore the video using HD footage from the movie's Blu-ray. I reassembled the footage cut by cut. I got most of it... I am missing a few obscure shots that were not in the movie.
Optimus Prime rolling into Autobot City to turn the tide has to be one of the greatest heroic moments in Transformers and cinema history.
The amazing thing is, he singlehandedly turned the tide
Optimous prime off the chain wrecks anyone in his way, even megatron.
@@TheKyrix82 exactly
I definitely agree!optimus was like my step father!
i loved that scene as a little kid...know i get goose bumps every time i hear this song
Optimus Prime = Most iconic hero ever. That's anyone who is 40+ today and saw this in the theaters is not ashamed to admit they cried when he died.
I seen this in 1990 on vhs. I think I stopped the tape and didn't want to watch the rest after prime died?
@1tiercel And I can only imagine the social media outrage this would cause if this toon movie were made and Prime died today?
I saw this in my home when I was like 8 and I cried
I'm 40 in 2 months and his death hits me every time I watch the movie.
I didn't cry for Optimus in the movie (Spock, on the other hand...). But check out the two-parter "The Return of Optimus Prime" - which also includes a piece of The Touch, btw. The storyline basically became "28 Days Later" - a rage virus infects both sides and Prime's hull (corpse?) was the vector, IIRC. But the matrix (or maybe it was the allspark, it's been 20-something years since I saw it) restores him and he uses it to heal both sides. That act of selflessness still gets me verklempt. :) It's exactly why your right about OP.
I lost my dad recently and this was our favorite movie to watch together. His name was Daniel, and he called me Hot Rod all the time. He really loved this song specifically, and would always sing along really loud. I could tell he was directing the message to me. This song will always make me smile.
I'm sorry to hear of your loss, man, I sing it to my son now, and yes -- the message is for him. You've got the touch, my boy, you've got the power. I can only imagine that your old man might've felt the same about you!
You hold the matrix now Rodimus Prime
Glory to him
Arise Rodimus Prime, the matrix will light your darkest hour
He was a great father.
To whoever disliked this, they must be stopped! No matter the cost.
Optimus Prime: Let them come

They don't have the touch.

"Transform... and roll out!"
The spirit of the 1980s summed up in a single song.
Damn straight.
Hell yh to that
Andrew Vrba Not enough coke,
Andrew Vrba if only the 80s were a poem...
Bro when you hear this in
-The 1986 movie
-Fall of Cybertron
-The Bumblebee movie
You know how good this song really is
The song was in the Fall of Cybertron?
fxranger326
Yes in the credits
Also in Boogie Nights sung by Mark Walberg
American Dad uses it for scenes that call for an 80s face-off theme like Roger working out to lose weight or Stan in a bike race.
The 2007 version was in Regular Show
As a 42 year old kid, I'm proud to admit this song combined with Optimus dying can make me cry like a baby, and I do it with joy in my heart!
21 year old kid on the same page
6am. Lifting weights. Looking for inspiration but with tears in my eyes cause of a stupid cartoon character dying 40 years ago. Yeah. Impactful.
This and, that scene, 43, yeah, it will always wreck me.
Definitely!
1982 need to say no more!!! Salute you bro!!! 80's babies Roll OUT!!!!
Transformers helped this girl as a teenager back in 2007 starting to come out of my shell to become a nerd and now at Medical school. Thank you Transformers.

@@gabrielblanchard3081 Thanks
Inspiring kids 20 years after it came out. That is the touch.😁
I miss you mom, thanks for introducing me to 80's music and movies since I was kid and share many things we both liked, despite being a young mother you really got the touch. Thanks for being a mother, a father, a teacher, a friend, a confidant, a guardian and a leader strong enough to be gentle, and even now continuing to light my darkest hour. I love you more than I miss you and that's why even when I don't feel worthy of the life you gave me this early and I'm afraid of having to face whatever lies ahead of the road without you, wishing to give up everything to follow you, I will continue to live, cause you'll live in my heart and everytime I hear this song I will remember that you always knew I had potential. Transform and roll out mom, I'll keep moving forward to a new era and upholding everything you cared for, this is not a farewell, until that day mother... till all are one
Stay strong man
Stay strong man
Till all are one!
Amen. Arise Zirilo, you now have the Matrix of Leadership. May your mother be remembered fondly.
She is one with the matrix and is praying you arise in life and live happy
The 80s will forever be missed, such an incredible time to be alive.
It was a great time to be a kid
Its because they were the last years where kids could still dreams and just being kids. Than technology took over our private lifes and we dont remember how it was before
Thats why nostalgia never being this strong within our pop culture. Everything try to recreate the past
I'm feel extremely lucky to have grown up then, before smartphones and the internet
@@peterluck3154 tech brought with it so much good, but it really has ruined so many things in our day to day lives imo

Sure do
There's FOUR guitars playing at one time. Understanding how conplex this song is, is mind boggling
Lmao
@@johndillinger1918 glad someone got the joke😆
And ironically, after ALL this time, it's still the best Transformers movie!!!!!

The song’s been through a lot but still got the Touch on us.
Seen him do this live at TFNAtion...still an epic sing along.
you had me at Stan bush is a living legend
You got the power!
yea you will
Optimus Prime’s entrance and turning the tide for The Autobots, his final stand against Megatron and The Deception is badass, chilling and downright heroic. Even 40 years later it’s still one of the most heroic moments in cinematic history, although his death was and is still shocking and heartbreaking it was very honourable and gave The Autobots a chance at victory.
You can hate the Movie, but I am willing to FIGHT anyone who doesn't enjoy this SONG!
Wait was he really "dead for good"? 🤔
@@jimnfl7134 It's go time! 🤣 It is classic!!
When Optimus enters to this🎶, separates from his trailer, leaps up and takes out 3 or 4 Decepticons... Awe. Some!
Take it from an 80's kid. The 80's was the greatest time to be a kid 🙂 I have nothing but the best memories ❤️
Christmas Day opening a brand new Optimus Prime! 😭 The best!
Got in a lot of trouble but had a lot fun being a rowdy kid back in the 80's.

As a African-American kid growing up and did not listen to rock music, this is the first song to open my ears to a whole new world of music. The 80s has some great rock music, and as a life long Transformers fan since G1 this song still gives me goosebumps especially the verse it’s in the blood is in the will it’s in the mighty hands of steel when you’re standing you’re ground., and you never gave in when your backs to the wall gonna to fight to the end and you’re taking it all !
As a white dude I appreciate you for letting us appropriate your music and sell it in a crappier version. Blues and and jazz and R&B are the greatest “American” cultural exports we’ve ever put out!
@@zackamania6534 pretty racist to say that one races music is better than the other.
@@doom5895 no it’s not. It would be racist to say that one race is naturally superior to another. Come back when you graduate high school.
@@zackamania6534 The thing is, they're a collective American effort of all races; Link Wray invented the power riff, and jazz/R&B have a history of white and Latin performers contributing, too. The standard drum progressions heard throughout rock also have strong ties to American Indian tribal drum beats, and blues rose out of an amalgamation of cultural white hymnal music and African influences. America is a melting pot of influences creating three distinct music forms that have become adopted universally worldwide: rock, blues, jazz. No one race created the forms, we all did, and it's inaccurate to say race anyways as it's more accurate to call it a mixing of cultural influences (Southeast American, African, Euro, American Indian, First Nations, Mesoamerican, Mexican).
Same! It was Van Halen that turned me on to Rock and Roll though 😁
To this day, one of the darkest movies of my childhood, and also the best. New kid movies need to not shy away from this
I'm a 90s baby and my dad bought this movie for my brother and I, this was probably after the 1st michael Bay transformers movie came out. I balled my eyes out when Optimus Prime died! I mean look at him... he's such an icon and defines what it means to be a leader and hero! I have been rewatching the original Transformers TV series and I love it!
You know a song is eternal when it sounded great before, and still sounds great now.
And so epic that Stan Bush has remastered it for EVERY Transformers video game released over the last 20 years!!
@@danielhaire6677elaborate ??

@@danielhaire6677 super cool. Wish I played the game. Unfortunately I’m a super G1 design purist. But I’ve been watching all the live action movies in order of release; they’ve done a solid job. I am watching bumblebee as we speak and there was a “The Touch” reference. I lost it.

utter dedication
What a Grand Dad.
What a fantastic time to be a kid in the 80's.
Transformers,Thundercats,G.I. Joe, Starwars.
Gawd I miss the 80's..
It was a simpler time
Don't forget about Voltron and He-man.
and THUNDERCATS, HOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
How did you forget Galaxy Rangers/Centurions/Bravestarr/Visionaries/Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors and Ulysses 31? i'm sure i missed some too though, so many great kids shows back then
Has anyone taken time to realize how incredible the animation of the 1986 transformers movie was
Like one of those epic Anime Mecha Movies of the 80's and 90's
I think it was animated in Japan.
The movie was animated by Toei animation.
@@drifter402 No wonder the flow looks flawless and smooth.
yea its so great critics hated it while they praise the shitty animation of the shat movie the great detective mouse that films such crap compared to this glorious toy commercial
Saw this on cinema aged 6 in 1986, cried my eyes out when I got home, due to Prime's death, to the point my father said he wouldn't take me to see a film again. I still get goosebumps listening to this now. The scene where Prime drives off "Megatron must be stopped, no matter the cost" gets me every time. I'm 38 & Prime is still my hero.
Exactly! :)
I feel you, my man.
41, Prime is still my hero as well!
Fuck Hotrod lol
My Account primes death was stupid. Killed by a stick smh
I’m lucky that my father showed me this when I was younger, I’ve loved it ever since.
As someone in 2024, this song is still amazing and this movie is still a national treasure
5 live action Transformers movies and all those combined don't equal how epic the fight and death scene of Optimus was in this movie.
Dude if they literally made this film live they would have dominated
Marky that's fucking 80s...and axiomatic as well...
Marky Nope ,Not even close.
they would have adapted in live THAT movie, with just some corrections for taste, removing silly dances scenes for something less random but still fun, keeping the epicness, grounding it sincerely in awesome stuff for kids, and respecting the original design, it would have been grandiose.
maybe not an awesome « teen and everyone come to see the girl’s pants » movie but at least an awesome for kids movie.
anyway, I’ll wait a reboot, I have Pacific Rim for now :)
Chalky I agree!!
The animation of this movie truly transcends time.
All by hand, even the cels are hand painted. IIRC they outsourced the animation to Toei. Yeah, *that* Toei. I've been watching old anime OVAs lately and this one felt like it.
Literally 1 of the best movies of my childhood! Gahd damn my friends and I were going CRAZY at the show watching this when it came out! Anyone else ever think back in 2005 and say shit, this is when it's all spose to go down?? Lololol godlike memories! This song was legend, but Literally the whole soundtrack was EVERYTHING!! ❤🙏🏾
This is literally one of the greatest jams of all time. People can go their entire lives creating music and never come close to making a song this good
They played this in the Bumblebee movie, my life is complete
It was in it briefly, but it was an awesome addition!
I wanted to shout out YES
Really? When?
@@redknight759 When the girls tried to get Charlie to jump in the water, Bee played this song
@@ghostexboi2380 thank you (starscream)
2:24 Optimus Prime's entrance and initial assault against the Decepticons still sends chills down my spine. If there was ever a heroic final stand for an animated character, this was it. I really hate how they cheapened Prime's sacrifice in later iterations of the series by bringing him back.
the kids wanted him back
blame the children
Amy Young It was returned solely at the request of the children, as no one expected this. This is not uncommon. For the same reason, Gaara was returned to Naruto. And that's the only reason Conan Doyle didn't kill Sherlock Homes. Since he was tired of Homs and he did not want to become a hostage of one book, he decided to kill Homs with the hand of Moriarty. But ... it caused such an uproar - that he had to return Homs. This is very visible. Since the stories about Sherlock Homes after their meeting with Moriarty became much worse. After all, the writer wrote through force.
Yeah..Prime was like, you get a laser blast, you get a laser blast, a laser blast for you and you.
@Carey Yang I agree if they want him back the should make him a ghost helping rodimus Prime similar to how Ben kenobi to Luke Skywalker
We offer our belated thanks to all the movie legends we lost that helped make this movie and the original cartoon iconic. Orson Welles, Lionel Stander, Leonard Nimoy, Robert Stack, Scatman Crothers, Jack Angel, Don Messick, John Stephenson, Chris Latta, Casey Kasem, thank you all for bringing Transformers into our hearts
My son loves this movie, and this song.
This dude freaking remastered a music video for his daughter to enjoy. Dad of the year right here
Watched it tonight with my 2 sons ages 10 and 6. We cried. Not embarrassed. Best animated movie of my lifetime and this goddamn gem of a song makes it next level.
I still vividly remember back in 2006 when my dad showed me and my brother this movie on the 20th anniversary dvd. I was five at the time. We were both completely enraptured by this movie, and it remains one of my favorites to this day. And I know my dad was happy to share a lot of what he grew up with with his sons
Not sll trars are evil ( gandalf Lord of the rings ) good dad . My old man took me to see this when it came out . I cried like a baby. . Think I was 7 .
I love that this guy saw something was lacking on youtube and took measures into his own hands to deliver a quality version of the video/song. Nearly 10 million views. You Sir, got the touch. 🙌
It was.
These 80s cartoons that got me through the hardest time of my life. I had lost my grandfather and I was living with my parents in a homeless shelter in San Francisco, California.
“One Shall Stand, One Shall Fall...”
“Finish Him Off Prime, Do It Now!”
Fuck, I’m now 37 and this scene and song (followed by Prime’s death scene) still makes my Eyes water :(
You ain't the only one. Same age here and yeah, that damn scene makes me hate Hot Rod so much more...but Prime could have just finished Megy and be done with it instead of pausing to talk...well...80s logic but damn, nothing beats Japanime and this one movie outdoes the modern movies from Bay. LOL..
Don't think you're alone mate. I'm 40 and I still love this movie. I have the DVD, the CD in my car (which I play all the time) and I even have the old VHS tape of it that I was lucky enough to find a few years back. This movie was legend back in its day and still is today IMHO.
I'm 38 and I still remember being pissed that my uncle forgot to take me to see this movie in the theater when I was 4 years old. Still one of my all time favorite films, animation or not!
Right there with you.
eeiko321 bruh I remember watching this movie when I was little and seeing optimus die was pretty sad watching it again
this movie will forever be the best Transformers movie. RIP Orson Welles.
And all the rest of the actors no longer with us
Rest in peace Leonard Nimoy.
To true
Luckily I have it on dvd
DANIEL FREY you need to get the remastered Blu-ray
I was a lucky kid to be gifted this movie on DVD in the 2000s. I was blessed with the scene of Optimus charging thru the Decepticon army while this song played. Genius.
The best part about this song, aside from my childhood coming back and saying hi is that this song is the most 80s song that the 80s have ever 80ed.
A tear came to my eye here when hot rod held up the matrix "light up our darkest hour". Best transformers movie without a doubt! This song was perfect as well.
I still get chills, when I hear Optimus say "Arise, Rodimus Prime."
August 8 1986 was the premier of The Transformers The Movie. 30 years ago. AND IT STILL HAS THE TOUCH!
Thirty years?! No f-ing way!
THE TOUCH -pokes- NOW I HAVE THE TOUCH WHACHU GOING TO DO NOW?
Best cartoon ever!
one of the best movies ever.
certainly the best transformer movie, and this song is the most motivational song ever.
Seriously, all the live action films combined fail to conjure even a fraction of the dramatic tension from Optimus' pronouncement 'Megatron must be stopped, no matter the cost' and confrontation with same.
The lyrics are just beautiful. They always bring a smile to my face
no matter all these years
no matter how many times listened to
i still grin
You know it's a good Transformers movie when The Touch plays.

You never get too old for cartoons unless you think that.
I'm 40 years old and I still watch cartoons but that's just the old ones from the eighties and nineties on DVD AND when I have the time to do it.
And to be clear,it's not like I'm some man-child,immature loser who just sits around watching cartoons and who doesn't do anything.
I'm also an aspiring comic book artist and writer,I'm self-supporting,independent and a mature adult,I just like what I like(I feel like it's very important to make that kind of clarification because once you say that you're an adult and that you still watch cartoons,people are guaranteed to take it the wrong way) .
Agreed.Also,you never get too old for cartoons(in my opinion and also,it depends on what kinds of cartoons they are).

Sentinel Prime: "You must understand why I had to betray you"

Leonard Nimoy and Peter Cullen
Ironically sentinel prime is voiced by late Leonard nimoy who did voice galvatron the evolved form of Megatron in transformers the movie

Loved this movie ...still watch it . What a great song
The symbolism and message of this movie. Is out of this World. As a child I lived and breathed this movie. Watching it today as a 42 year old just wow.
I'll say it to my dying day, this is absolutely one of the best movies ever made with a kick ass soundtrack
At the movies as a 12 year old boy who recently got into metal, hearing the Lion Transformers theme kick in was so badass.
I gotta watch it again now. IT was SO GOOD... And still is
Greatest movie ever. Better than Starwars even
It's got Orson Freaking Welles as a giant planet-destroying robot. This was his greatest role, and raises the movie from not just a space opera but to a space classical epic.
This proves that the 80s is a Golden Generation
My first son was just born, and listening to this song i cry. Looking into his little face and knowing that hes already a hero. Im already proud of the man hes going to be, whomever that may be.
I blasted this song back in the 80's and 90's still to this day
Just saying, my daughter loves this song and I posted it on her Facebook page. Stan Bush, bringing fathers and daughters together since 1986. :-)
Logan Cracraft That's sweet. =)
the 80s are strong with this one
They will never die (the 80's, that is).
The 80s are never over! -Jack Howitzer
noob man long live the 80's the best Era for music like this
Apparently, Stan Bush sings to a toy truck.
But he actually sings to every boy and girl to stay firm and strong in the face of the hostile world "When the hell breaking loose, you'll be right in the eye of the storm!"
It was about knowing how to listen
HAPPY 40TH TRANSFORMERS ANNIVERSARY ❤
I have never watched anything transformer's related in my life.
This song makes me want to watch all of it!
...or at least the 80's show...
Why is this so stupid cool!?
This makes me want to watch the 80's show and the 80's movie luckily the 80's movie out on Blu-Ray now
True, but there was that awesome scene where this first plays in the movie. Prime should have never suffered that fate at the end though.
watch/play/read/the whole franchise! but start with this series
TheNoobofHearts because. It's the 80's. everything was badass then.
TheNoobofHearts There is no time waste buddy.
Watch it!!!!!
Transformers was the greatest cartoon in history. So iconic.
You can still watch some old episodes right here on youtube.
It was the greatest time in my life. A kid growing up in the 80s. They cant make cartoons like this anymore.
I really feel for the generation of kids born in the 90s and onwards.
They have all missed out on an iconic era of entertainment.
I'm still annoyed from the time when I was doing a Christmas quiz in school and this song came on and we had to guess what movie it was from , I put 'transformers' but the answer was 'ready player one'.
God dammit
Should have showed the video and prove to the idiot teacher it's from 1986 Transformers Movie lol
Ikr
I think that the fact this song is in Ready player one is a reference to this film for sure.
Nobody can be _that_ stupid in the life, I mean, it's obviously from Transformers, it was made principally for the 86's movie.
This movie was way ahead of its time
This movie/ song holds an important place in my childhood, my dad is my hero. I want nothing more than to be a dad
Being a dad is awesome 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I used to work with and mentor troubled and abused kids. This song truly helped along the way and has meant so much to many different kids! WIsh kids today in general had more positive music like this instead of the vile emotionally desensitizing crap that's far too often shoved down their throats.
Mr. Extreme I'm not so sure about Dare to be Stupid though...
Mr. Extreme I'm not so sure about Dare to be Stupid though...
DGneoseeker1 ha ha ha "Dare To Be Stupid" = IF ADHD was a song. LOL
I always thought the message was good. 80's power ballad. Power ballad because the message is suppose to be strong or powerful and ballad because it vaguely recounts a story of some sort. I agree too, about emotionaly desensitizing lyrics and themes. It surrounds youth these days it seems.
+Mr. Extreme But what about Katy Perry's "Firework?"
However I must point out that you earn the Touch by always giving it your all and never backing down, but you can be a Firework just by existing.
I watched a ton of Transformers and if you really think about Optimus Prime, as a character, he was only ever really 1 thing. The 1 thing that defined him and made people love him. He was a decisive leader who lead by example. That is literally his entire character from the original series summed up and yet that was all it took for him to become one of the most beloved characters of all time. It speaks a lot to how much people can, will and do look up to good leaders.
And you can partially thank Peter Cullen's brother for that. Cullen's brother was a US Marine NCO. Cullen, landing this voice role, talked to his brother about what traits the Marines looked for in an ideal leader. Cullen then used that to create the personification of the character we would all know as Optimus Prime.
And then he got the BESTEST ideas to die and undie, like series after series!
@danielhaire6677 Wanted to give special emphasis to the important part his brother, Larry, mentioned. Finding a source was tricky, so I settled for this quote attributed to Peter in some featurette for the Rise of the Beasts movie (emphasis with asterisks my own):
“When I voiced Prime for the very first time, I was living with my brother Larry, who was a Marine. I said, "I'm going to an audition. I'm gonna be a truck.' And he started to laugh and he said, 'A truck?!' And I said, 'This is a leader. This is a hero.' And his demeanor just changed. He just went, 'Peter. *If you're going to be a leader, be strong enough to be gentle.*' And I got to the audition and I said, 'My name is Optimus Prime, from the planet Cybertron.' I had no doubt that this is what a hero should sound like, and I was convinced I was gonna get that role."
@@danielhaire6677 "Be strong enough to be gentle."
He was also the best vehicle, alongside Bumblebee, and had that kicka$$ sword and rifle.
I am not an80s kid. I was born in 94 but I grew up watching Transformers as a kid in Nigeria and I remember hearing this song when I first saw the movie on TV. It was amazing🤩🤩
My dad took me to see this and i will never forget it. We parted on bad terms and now he's been dead 4 years. I can remember this movie with great fondness. Prime dying gets me everytime.
Couldn't finish the video. My face melted from the extreme awesomeness
