Professor Of Rock has shared the new video below, stating: "What if our parents were actually as weirdly cool as we think we are? 70s classic 'Surrender' by Cheap Trick is about that very thing. It was conceived when guitarist Rick Nielsen found out his parents were members of the KISS army when he was 14. With an electric vocal by leading man Robin Zander, the story of how Cheap Trick made it big in Japan first and how their live album, Cheap Trick At Budokan, changed everything, is up next."
