It was originally from their second album, In Color, released in September 1977. It was the first single released from this album, but it wasn't charted in the United States. I Want You To Want Me was the number one single in Japan. [2] [3] [a better source is needed] His success in Japan, as well as the success of his previous single Clock Strikes Ten paved the way for Cheap Trick concerts at Nippon Budokan in Tokyo in April 1978, which were recorded for the band's most popular album Cheap Trick in Budokan. A live version of I Want You to Want Me from cheap trick at Budokan was released in 1979 and became their biggest selling single, reaching #7 on the Billboard Hot 100. [5] It was certified by the Gold Recording Industry Association of America, representing sales of one million records. In Canada, it reached #2 in the national RPM chart, staying there for two weeks[6] and was certified Gold to sell 500,000 singles in September 1979. [7] It was also the band's highest single in Britain, where it reached #29. Years later, Rick Nielsen and Tom Petersson criticized the light production of I Want You to Want Me as it originally appeared on their second album, In Color. Cheap Trick went as far as basically overwriting this album in 1998. Producer Tom Werman explains, I Want You To Want Me was a fabulous dance type of song, and the perfect pop tune, and it was supposed to be a little campoon. I put --- played by a guy named Jai Vinding. I remember asking the band what they thought of it, and Rick Nielsen kind of shrugged his shoulders and said, You're a producer. Next: It was a burlesque song, like the number 30s. That's what they wrote it as. [required citation] Differences in versions Studio version has a guitar by Jay Graydon. The live version has a higher tempo than the album version, which contributed to its success. However, the album version has echoes on poems Not Me, I haven't seen you cry. This echo does not appear in the live version. The crowd, however, emulates the echoes by chanting cryin'. The live version consists of two guitar solos, while the studio version has a piano fill as the second instrumental. Between 1976 and 1977, Cheap Trick recorded a version played in style that they did at concerts in 1975 and 1976. He played with dramatic vocals, high tempo and two guitar solos. It was released in 1996. The oldest version of the song was played in 1976, almost identical to the alternative version (closer to the version they originally played), except for a slightly different song structure. This version was released in 1998. [Quote needed] 33 years after the Budokan version became the first Cheap Trick Top Ten hit, the band recorded a celebratory version of the song with the same arrangement, but with slightly altered lyrics, called I Want You for Christmas, included on A Very Special Christmas: 25 Years Bringing Joy to the World, in 2012. [9] Critical reception In Shake Some Action: The Ultimate Power Pop Guide, a section on Cheap Trick featured reviews of the band's top 20 outstanding tracks. One track included I Want You to Want Me, where author John M. Borak wrote The color version lacked anything resembling bullets, but it was corrected to a hit version from the groundbreaking Cheap Trick on Budokan's disc. A piece of history and a bold cool tune to boot. [10] Billboard magazine found that the live version is high energy with infectious melody and clumsy guitar work.
