It is amazing how a huge band like this, knew, and was trying to tell us what was coming. The very reason I have always loved this awesome band!!! WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!
Actually the "Lonesome Crow" album is mostly unknown to most Scorpions "fans", yet it's the most awesome piece of music to have ever been recorded....PLUS Michael Schenker played on it!
Simply one of the heaviest songs that I've ever heard. Love the relentless groove, crushing drums, and otherworldly lead guitar. Listening to this still gives me goosebumps 40 years after hearing it the first time.
Rudy shakers are excellent guitarist.Klaus I said unmatchedYup I was seventeen and didn't grasp the concept of this song Just love their music.The two times i've seen in concert that may thousands of thousands of times i've heard their music or just their really unique and original love storps
Nobody ever comments on Rudolf's haunting backing vocals. My favorite Scorps song! Such a powerhouse tune with plaintive, epic lyrics and impassioned singing from Klaus.
This songs retains some of the dark deranged vibe of the Animal Magnetism album while being heavy as f..k all while describing the evil of that horrible drug and someone's view while going through addiction .They are right the world IS evil more today than any other time! DAMN drug dealers! Brilliant album all round!
I saw the Scorps on this tour in 1982. Girls School, Iron Maiden and Scorps at Memorial Coliseum in Portland for $12.50! What a show! Still have the ticket stub!
Sometimes it seems the good times never will return A lot has changed, babe 'Cause evil rules the world You said you're looking for a place where there's no hate Oh, babe, it really makes no sense to escape How long will it take to make the world a flaming star How long will it take 'til they stop their senseless wars How long will it take 'til everybody will understand That we need to fill our hearts with love again The only future we've got exists right now Let's take the time, babe As long as the world is turning 'round How long will it take to make the earth a fireball How long will it take 'til no more life exists at all How long will it take 'til everybody will understand That we need, that we need to fill our hearts with love again It's up to you to fight the evil in your mind It's up to you the more love you give, the more you'll find The more love you give, the more you'll find It's up to you to fight the evil in your mind It's up to you the more love you give, the more you'll find The more love you give, the more you'll find Don't make the world a flaming star Stop, stop with all these senseless wars How long will it take 'til everybody will understand That we need, that we need to fill our hearts with love again

If ..I'm not mistaken, I belief R. Schenker does the lead break here. Later stating there were two different solo versions. I bought this in 1982, had Tokyo tapes, animal magnetism, lovedrive etc prior. I actually didn't care for this album back in the day, even tried to return it to the record shop by intentionally placing a deep scratch on the disc lol. So, I gave it to a friend , focusing more on my other new buys. Maiden, number of the beast. Priest..screaming for V. The good ole days of never ending great bands/music. I still (today) prefer those two over blackout.
Your correct on both. I’ve heard both versions and it’s really no difference except one small part. Your the absolutely first person I’ve heard that doesn’t care for this album while many believe this to be there best. Never got to see Maiden which is BIG disappointment. Priest is another band that is tight onstage.
3:37 This guitar solo was on the USA release. The European version is far better in my opinion. As far as I can tell, both versions were released on March 29th 1982.
Uma obra-prima atemporal e extremamente subvalorizada na discografia dos Scorpions, bem como pela mídia em geral. Para mim, um greatest hit, bem superior a muitos hits badalados de várias bandas famosas na história do rock.
I remember that tour , i was in Los Angeles and coming from work i saw the big screen in LA Forum ...Scorpions tonight ! plus Bon Jovi , i was a young boy from Mexico and not a single hope to see them , with the years , i saw them 5 times , even in my country , Mexico.
Que gran banda Scorpions aca tiene similitud a black sabbath como suena este es un discazo ! Es pesado con buenos riff espectacular el bajo y la bateria

Simply the best Scorpions song...ever!
This is the song that brought me into the fantastic world of heavy metal. Still one of my favorites.
Suprising how many Scorpions fans dont know this song, we should all share this beautiful song
NO...we know it quite well.
Been listening to this song since high school. Early 80s!!
i know it..yeah
They're not true Scorpions fans then.

Absolutely SMOKIN ' RIFFS
Why I love the scops. They just keep on rocking hit after hit after hit .

This song from "Blackout"
It is telling everyone to wake up and see what is going on around you. WAKE UP!!
This is the Scorpions "Bridge of Sighs". 🎉
@@duster691Duster, you can only be !AWAKE ! for so long. 🎉

I'm addicted to this song.
Try animal magnetism if you haven't. I'm addicted to both
Its up to you, to fight the evil in your mind!!!!
Amazing Klaus, voice wonder & Scorpions band .... 💯 ⚡👍🏾👌 ✍
Masterpiece ever. Pure heavy metal. Great.
Sometimes it seems the good times never will return
A lot has changed, babe
'Cause evil rules the world
You said you're looking for a place where there's no hate
Oh, babe, it really makes no sense to escape
How long will it take to make the world a flaming star
How long will it take 'til they stop their senseless wars
How long will it take 'til everybody will understand
That we need to fill our hearts with love again
The only future we've got exists right now
Let's take the time, babe
As long as the world is turning 'round
How long will it take to make the earth a fireball
How long will it take 'til no more life exists at all
How long will it take 'til everybody will understand
That we need, that we need to fill our hearts with love again
It's up to you to fight the evil in your mind
It's up to you the more love you give, the more you'll find
The more love you give, the more you'll find
It's up to you to fight the evil in your mind
It's up to you the more love you give, the more you'll find
The more love you give, the more you'll find
Don't make the world a flaming star
Stop, stop with all these senseless wars
How long will it take 'til everybody will understand
That we need, that we need to fill our hearts with love again
👏👏👏👏👏👏
Much Love to the Scorpions! Listening to your music has made my life much better. Thank you.

How could anyone ever sing this like Klaus? It would be almost impossible to cover this live, and do it justice!
3:37 This guitar solo was on the USA release. The European version is far better in my opinion. As far as I can tell, both versions were released on March 29th 1982.
Yep, they split the difference across markets because Schenker couldn't choose between his solos but honestly, the European version is clearly better.
I am the master and the ruler of the world - Sid Vicious
R.i.p
The More Love You Give, The More You'll Find. How much easier does it get! Love you all!🤟🤟🤟
I discovered this song through NWA (National Wrestling Alliance) as the ring entrance theme for the tag team The Skyscrapers.
❤ Stupenda 👍 questa è la canzone preferita del mio Amore americano 🌍😢❤
This is the sky scrapers theme. Sid vicious and Dan spivey
Fantastic band !
Great Song, Great Album ❤
Loooove this track!
Только Скорпионс вызывает биение сердца, любимчики мои, респект вашей группе❤
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🇵🇱
Translation : Only Scorpions make the heart beat, my favorites, respect to your group♥
Four words that r so true.. evil rules the world..😱😱
Ecw, skyscrapers,intro music. Nuff said.
This would be excellent entrance music for the NY Mets’ closer Edwin Diaz!’
I am... the man... who rules the world!
R.I.P. Sid Vicious!
Damn!👊❤️🔥
It is time to FIGHT!!! WAKE UP!!!

Evil doesn't rule the world. Sid rules the world.
This song says it all. Listen.
This song slays and deserves crankage at full volume \m/
We are living this awesome song right now. Darkness to Light. WAKE UP!!
Sabbath vibes
a hidden gem in their marvellous journey !
SCORPS MONSTERS SOUND🦂🦂🦂🦂🦁
Monsters of Rock 1988
Being led to the ring by their manager, Theodore R. Long. From Metropolis. "Dangerous" Dan Spivey & Sid Vicious. The Skyscrapers!!!
Das beste album Scorpions - Blackout 👍
It sounds like they are trudging through maple syrup lol awesomeness!
Relatively slow paced, but utterly relentless...most of the slower paced hair metal tunes were power ballads, not this one
Play it loud and proud.
Good old days just bad ass company music and party's awesome concert too be safe God Bless you all 💯✌️♥️🥂🥂
Timeless.
Sid Vicious and Dangerous Dan Spivey The Skyscrapers!!!!!!!!!
Very good memories ☮️☮️☮️☮️
