1. still there is no "transitional fossil" its made up, to make it look like there smart
2. Hello friend. There is no 'macro' evolution. Only 'micro' evolution. Crickets have always been crickets. And, 'micro' evolution doesn't explain where life came from. Only God can fill those 'shoes'.
3. Um, no offence but you don't seem to know about evolution. Evolution does not nessicarily mean 'progress'. As LilBlackWolff said, it's a case of "if it's not broke, don't fix it." Crickets have changed over time, but retain a body that works for them. Check out evolution.berkeley. edu/evolibrary/misconceptions_teacherfaq. php#a3 (remove spaces)
4. LMAO, really? Learn 2 Google. Search for 'transitional fossil'. (The term "missing link" is a bit of a misnomer.)
5. and the fact that in 200 years, and thousands of days of searching, not a sigle "missing link" has been found
6. if its not broke don't fix it. 
7. Because they hoped ancient crickets would play something like classic/pop music and then sell it to lady gaga
8. I find it rather strange that we can recognize something '165 million years old'. If evolution is true, crickets should have evolved into something completely different by now.  Once a cricket, always a cricket. No such thing as evolution.
9. Wow. This is possibly the most USELESS and STUPID video I've seen in a long time. A minute and some of a guy fatuously reading copy. SHUT THE HELL UP AND LET ME LISTEN TO THE DAMN SOUND ALREADY!!!
10. And this matters because?

Jurassic Cricket's Mating Call Recreated From Detailed Fossil

It's a song 165 million years in the making, played on the world's smallest violin. Scientists have recreated the chirps of a cricket that was last heard 165 million years ago. Working from an incredibly complete fossil, the team was able to reconstruct the sound based on the cricket's wings, where one is dragged against the other in a scissor-like motion, which they described as similar to playing a tiny stringed instrument. By comparing the size and shape of its comb-like instruments to living cricket species, they were able to discern the frequency of its musical tone, which they discovered was relatively low-pitched when compared to modern bush crickets. Professor Mike Ritchie from the University of St. Andrews told BBC Nature, "People thought singing in crickets probably evolved later from a startle reflex, but this suggests that [very early on] they were already ... producing these lovely, pure tones to compete for a mate." Serenading your love interest: it's even more of a classic than we thought.
