"Reach Out" is a single by American rock band Cheap Trick, released as a single from the soundtrack album for the 1981 film Heavy Metal. It was the band's only single of the year and the second of four singles from the soundtrack.
Background
Released on the film soundtrack in 1981, the album peaked at number 12 on the Billboard 200 chart. Although both the lead single "Heavy Metal (Takin' a Ride)" and third single "Working in the Coal Mine" were successful singles from the album, "Reach Out" was not a success and failed to chart on the American Billboard Hot 100.
The song was written by Robert James and Pete Comita. The executive producer of the soundtrack album and the song was Irving Azoff, whilst the song's producer was Roy Thomas Baker. Comita was the band's bassist of the time, where he had replaced Tom Petersson. He recorded five songs with the band to contribute to two movie soundtracks. "I'm the Man", "Born to Raise Hell", and "Ohm Sweet Ohm", which were produced by Jack Douglas, went to the film Rock & Rule, whilst "Reach Out" and "I Must Be Dreamin'" went to the film Heavy Metal. Comita left the band after completing the 1980-81 World Tour that promoted the "All Shook Up" album and was replaced by Jon Brant.
"Reach Out" is a song recorded by American singer Hilary Duff for the planned re-release of her fourth studio album, Dignity (2007). It was written by Martin Gore, Ryan "Alias" Tedder, Evan Bogart, Mika Guillory and produced by Tedder. The song was released on October 20, 2008 by Hollywood Records as the first and only single from Duff's first greatest hits album, Best of Hilary Duff (2008).
Background and production
The song was produced by Ryan "Alias" Tedder and co-written by Tedder, Evan Bogart, and Mika Guillory. It is built around a sample of Depeche Mode's 1989 song "Personal Jesus". On the last episode of Total Finale Live, Duff described the song by saying that "[i]t's different for me. It's a little dancey, and there's a rapper named Prophet who's on it who's really cool and kinda fresh".
Duff said in September 2007 that a previously unheard song on the Dignity Tour's set list, "Reach Out", would be released as a single. In an interview with Joe Bermudez in November 2007, Duff revealed that her fourth studio album Dignity would be re-released. The re-release would feature remixes of the original songs alongside "two or three" new recordings, including "Reach Out" and "Holiday". While "Reach Out" and "Holiday" were already completed, Duff hoped to write a third new song for the re-release, but this never came to be. Duff revealed that she wanted "Holiday" to be either the first or second single from the re-release.

Reach out was released on the Heavy Metal soundtrack and is 1 of the 2 studio recordings to feature new bassist Pete Comita. Also released as a 7" single with "I Must Be Dreamin'", both in 1981.
As ever, this is just my version of how I would play this song - a quick youtube search will reveal that Rick rarely plays songs as they were recorded in the studio. That's how I like to roll too, lol 😂
The guitar is a 1981 US made Hamer Graphic Special, the amp is a Kemper set to a Michael Britt Marshall JCM800 patch. I did the main solo on a 1996 Orville LPS-75/LD.

Aparentemente su estilo era inocuo (una mezcla de Hard Rock y Power Pop) pero lograron influenciar a toda una generación de nuevas bandas que los mencionan siempre como una fuerte inspiración en su formación musical: Weezer, Smashing Pumpkins y Fountains of Wayne entre otros.
