Possible metasong... - Feinan - 02-03-2006
I've recently been listening to a large amount of music during the day, with the acquisition of a new audio player. Came across this in the playlist, and it got me to thinking. I know you wanted more metasongs and other-person power songs, Bob, and this looks like a good possibility.
The Touch
Stan Bush
You got the touch
You got the power
After all is said and done
You've never walked, you've 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 when the goin' gets rough
You've been put to the test, but it's never enough
You got the touch
You got the power
When all hell's breakin' loose
You'll be riding 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 your back's to the wall
Gonna fight to the end and you're takin' it all
You got the touch
You got the power
When all hell's breakin' loose
You'll be riding 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 fightin' fire with fire
You know you got the touch
You're at your best when when the road gets rough
You've been put to the test, but it's never enough
You got the touch
You got the power
You got the touch
You got the power
I see several possibilities for this one. First, it might just grant the target some range of powers. Given the lyrics, it could be a standard brick powerset (possibly including a metal transformation as well) or you might have some flame powers given the "fightin' fire with fire" line. However, I could also see this as something similar to 'I'll Play For You.' If played first, the next song played can be transferred to a target instead of affecting Doug, as long as it's one of his offensive powerset songs.

Quite honestly, this is the third or fourth time someone's suggested this song. I'm starting to think there's something to it. I don't think anyone's ever suggested it for a metasong or power-granting song, though, and your idea is really interesting...

The Transformers soundtrack is a wonderful album, even considered without the series behind it.Wire Geek - Burning the weak and trampling the dead since 1979
