The Touch is a song by Stan Bush. It was originally featured as an insert song in The Transformers: The Movie and again in the final episode of The Transformers season 3, The Return of Optimus Prime, Part 2, earning its place as an anthem for Transformers fandom, along with the oh so memorable original Transformers theme song.

Stan Bush created a re-recorded version of The Touch from his album In This Life for inclusion in Transformers (2007), but wasn't included in the movie, nor the final soundtrack. He also recorded a remix, known as "Sam's Theme," to promote Revenge of the Fallen, which was also included in the credits of the video game Transformers: Fall of Cybertron.

Lyrics

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

Touch!
