    Joey was only 17 when this song released. He also wrote the song. Very talented kid!

    Class of '88. It was the most amazing era to have grown up in. Went to so many concerts because there were so many great bands that it wasn't unusual to be going every weekend. Thankfully tickets back then were nothing like today's prices because back then they made money off of album sales, not the concerts like they do today. Concerts were used to drive album sales. Now that the songs are all digital and traded, the sales of the music isn't enough to support the tours. And the tours are getting so expensive that the average person isn't able to attend one show a year let alone several. I feel sorry for today's younger people who will never experience what we did in the 80's.

    We had some of the best music. Bobby Brown, M C Hammer, Bon Jovi, Poison, Def Leppard, Aerosmith, Run DMC, The Beastie Boys, too many to name. Just fun music to sing and dance to

    Ahhh the decade where I was 4” taller thanks to Aqua Net Extra Super Hold hairspray and a curling iron. The higher the hair the closer to God, baby!! 😁
    I was in Jr High in the 80’s but still remember those days fondly. I was a fan of the hair bands like Europe. I loved Def Leopard, Motley Crue and Van Halen. Then we had the beginnings of rap music where even the white guys like The Beastie Boys and Vanilla Ice saw fame. There were great pop artists like Huey Lewis & The News and Robert Palmer too. I’d love to watch you watch the Peter Gabriel video for Sledgehammer, it’s a pure 80’s classic from the days when MTV was young and still actually played music videos. Folks didn’t get so easily offended back then and didn’t make a big deal out of the things they do now. Some even had manners that they minded. Those were the days!

    Rock the Night is another banger from them, & I second you checking out Wasted Time by Skid Row. I also want to request Storytime live at Wacken 2013 by Nightwish 😊

    Hello,
    A song that brings me back to the 80's it's a trip down memory lane there were so many good groups in that time the music was so good and they were all wonderfull thank you to react to this one. Love the 80's
    Greetings from the Netherlands

    I only learned this is an actual song when I started watching reactions! I just knew it as the song that played when the Pistons were being introduced at home games back in the day

  • @LostDove74
    @LostDove74 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Rock the Night by Europe is another one of the bands best. Notice the continuous flow in both tracks. No wasted time on filler noise. All the riffs and melodies flow into a life of their own. Good flow and energy!1 The band still has all original members to this day and they're all high school buddies from a small Swedish town. They dreamed big obviously with a name like Europe, and they wanted to be a world touring band. This track opened the door for that and their high school dream manifested quickly. Been a fan since the first time I heard this song. Peace.

    So Jared Padalecki (Supernatural/Walker) tells a story about being in a crowded men's room. All stalls filled. He starts playing The Final Countdown on his phone. Stalls empty out quickly.

    @LifeOfNigh 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    I was 10 when this song came out. My cousin and I (2 10 yr old girls) would be playing with our dinkies on the bed with all the Lego buildings lined up, and then we'd play this song during an "earthquake" in our dinky word (shaking the bed, lol). One of my most remembered 80s songs.

  • @nicolekastner7607
    @nicolekastner7607 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    I love this song. 80’s/early 90’s hair bands were my thing back in the day, but I am not sure if this band had any other hits. I may be wrong, but I think they might be a one hit wonder. At least as far as I remember. An internet search might prove me wrong. If you want suggestions for 80’s hair bands, Tesla would be a great one, Warrant too, more Bon Jovi (I posted a whole list for them before). Great White, more Def Leppard. That’s enough for now.

    I remember The Final Countdown from Europe first came out in the 1980's and it was huge all over the world, The band Europe came from Sweden which is in Europe just like my country of England. The Band Europe won a platinum Album for The Final Countdown which sold millions of records all over the world for the band Europe. If you have never ever heard this song then you must have been living on another planet. 💂‍♂️💂‍♂️🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿💙💛🇺🇦🇺🇦🇸🇪🇸🇪

    OHW. But if that's all you get it might as well be cool like this one.
    "Carrie" made a tiny mark, but this is pretty much it in the states.
    I can't believe they didn't get more love than this.
    I had hair like that when I was 19, but the Navy changed all that.

    Meu deus, como as pessoas são desenformadas em plena era digital! O Google está aí para nos informar sobre tudo. Os meninos da Europa tem muita música boa, o que acontece que the final conntdow impulsionou eles para o sucesso, durante a carreira deles gravaram onze albuns, e já estão no Studio gravando o décimo segundo álbum, nesse mês de setembro comemoraram 40 anos de banda com os integrantes originais, é um privilégio de poucos. E ainda gravaram um novo singles esse mês. Hoje não existe mais a cabeleira, mais o talento perdura. 💯😉🎆😎🎸

    Please, please, please! Do Rick Astley! He's from the 80s. I double checked your list of artists you've already done. Please! His vibe at the time was not the same as some of the other bands you've listened to, more Pop than Rock. However, he's also covered some Foo Fighters more recently, which was a pleasure to listen to as well.
