This song definitely means a lot to people who lived through that time. 🤘
true! that's why i am writing this comment with tears in my eyes ... *peace
Remember when this came out. I watched on MTV over and over crying. I remember the real footage and the hope in my heart. True unity. I have a piece of the wall! Ronald Reagan, standing in front of the wall, “Gorbachev ! Tear down this wall!“. Gorbachev, Reagan, and John Paul, the second working together! Imagine generations of families, reunited! How many years we had spent at school doing drills for nuclear fallout! Brings Hope me for future now.
The day the wall came down ! My hubby & I were invited to celebrate at our friend's house he was from Germany so it was really personal for him and it was a special place in history for us all and I'll never forget it
This song should be played on radio stations around the world. We need some PEACE
I was there in Germany at the end of 1989, when the reunion of the two sides happened, it was an amazing feeling!
The optimism of those few months, I swear. Took me back.
I never paid attention to history because I can't stand it. I don't know anything about this. Thank goodness I keep out of world issues

Iconic song for one of the most iconic moments in history.
So much hope in this song. Some songs are more than just a hit on the billboard charts. This song will always be a time capsule for those of us that lived through it. The whistle sets the mood better than anything else could have.
This event was a BIG FUCKING DEAL
To you.

@@danmullins8480 I don't care. I have no regard for events in this world. Honestly people get over it. Some people just have to live life and not worry about others.
If you don't care, then why comment? Strange...
this is the most brilliant and powerful song I have ever heard.
Historic song……such an amazing moment in history. We were euphoric. It is tragic that we didn’t support Russia in getting a solid democracy going……Instead they got KGB officer Putin and went right back to a dictatorship…and now we have Ukraine. Lost opportunities…
more worried about the united states democracy
not looking good right now
You can't impose a leader or even a system on a country, especially one like Russia. Many other former communist countries transitioned to a democratic system, the difference being that Russia feels it's better than them because it has nuclear weapons and a big army and used to subjugate surrounding countries to serve it. Russia had all the natural resources and even when investment to become fully integrated into the world order but instead it's leaders and even oligarchy wants to go back to the past. If it hadn't been Putin it would been someone else. In the West we have people like this, Trump and Boris Johnson spring to mind, who want to turn the clock back, the only difference being we do have some checks and balances, although I guess they thought that in the early 1930s in Germany.
I'm italian
I'm so scared and worried about this war that don't stop... 😢

Always makes me cry I'm 63 now
Same here. I'm 56. I was hoping to see others comment that it makes them emotional.
Really??? why?????
@@crk802 The cold war was scary and when the wall came down it was light coming from darkness. I Was in Berlin pre and post "Wall" and the song resonates with me. Thank for asking.
Cool. I was stationed in West Germany when the wall went down and the two halves unified. I once drove a Dodge Caravan road-tripping from Gdansk Poland to Berlin in 1991. Historic times....
"Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!"Ronald Reagan(President of USA ) called for the General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev, to open the Berlin Wall, which had encircled West Berlin since 1961.
This was during a time of uncertainty, mistrust & the long-standing strained relations between the Soviet Union & the West. I had only been in the military a few years before the wall came down. When everything fell apart, it sent shockwaves, yet most I feel didn’t realize the impact. One of my favorite bands, with an historic song…& you’re right, when you take another listen, the words really hit.
I was lucky enough to see them live in Toronto in the early 90s and they were incredible. This song was so Historic when the Berlin Wall finally came down ending the Soviet occupation of Berlin. I get so emotional every time I see this. Especially now because this peace is now gone again and Russia and the USA are at it again. It's sad really. Great reaction as usual and Peace out 🙏 ✌️ ☮️
When musicians were so in sync with real events.
Good stuff, man. Klaus Meine has one of the classic rock voices, perfect for ballads. When I first heard this song on the radio, I teared up. I still do sometimes. Now, though, I think it's because the hope for the future that the song and we ourselves envisioned didn't last. We went from an all too brief time of togetherness back to almost the same old Cold War with only slightly altered players.
Always give me chills.
One of the great and unforgottable moments in history.
I was in Germany 1990 and could feel the change in the air.
Growing up in Finland at that time and then going to both Russia and germany during that era makes this song so personally profound. I have a piece of that wall at home, still..... chills
The other two songs you should definitely check out by this band are "Still Loving You" and "Rock You Like A Hurricane" this man has an amazing range and control of his voice.
But it's so sad that their mainstream popularity is only based on these few singles. They're one of the greatest heavy metal bands of all times. All of their other ballads from the '70s and '80s are better songs than "Wind of change" and "Still loving you" (which are very good-iconic songs already).
@@danbal4185 They're not heavy metal.they're Rock. Pure Rock. Rammstein are Heavy Metal,or Metalica.
@@danbal4185 Yes, you are right; it is very sad that I/we don't know more songs by this amazingly gifted band. There are times when we can be very limited by what the radio and music channels played during the height of their popularity. And that's a shame.
@@xScooterAZx they're one of the bands (alongside Judas Priest, Ufo and others) that practically invented classic heavy metal in the '70s. Rammstein are industrial metal, Metallica invented thrash metal in the '80s.
@@danbal4185 Oh,..another sub genre. I cant keep up with them all.
I love the Scorpions! This is one of my all time favorite songs ever.. this is so timeless and we need this right now.
Having lived through this time period, I loved (and still love) this song. I felt such hope for a better and unified world. I cried so much watching this video and listening to this song over and over.
POWERFUL SONG totally awesome group...
Hope is definitely what I feel when I hear this song. The world was so hopeful at the time.
Great reaction Salvo! As a longtime Scorpions fan, AND a person with German heritage, this song touched a nerve! I was in my early teens when the Wall fell and the Iron Curtain collapsed. This song became a beacon of hope to a unified Europe! Klaus Meine(cl-ow-se mine-a, if said phonetically) penned a beautiful piece, not to mention his immaculate whistling (seriously, try hitting the notes he does!). Powerful ballad - to all of humanity!
Cheers.
I remember this song but had no idea what it was about back then! New appreciation for the song!
Love the Scorps, Klaus’ vocals, and this incredible song!
I was 15 in 1989, when the Berlín wall fell. I had a basic idea of how historically important that and the Perestroika was.
The thing I was really aware and care about with all that was that the fear of being blown-up any minute by a nuclear blast was over.
We were so positive back then that we were entering a period of peace when the Berlin wall came down. Shame it didn't last. Capt.Bob, SV ( Sailing Vessel ) 27th Chance, Tampa Fl, USA 🇺🇸
It has lasted in Germany, and many other former communist Central and Eastern European countries. Russia was always going to be a problem wanting to get back to being a superpower despite not having the economy to back this up. I don't know what more the West could do, but I fear more for democracy in the US than I do in Germany.
Dude 😎😎😎🤯👍. Thanks for letting the song play all the way through. Every other reaction channel on TH-cam, as you may or may not know, has a great song to react to from their followers request. No problem. My problem they pause through the song, sometimes several times, to voice their response. My point: I appreciate that you waited until the song was finished to give your reaction. Brilliant! I wish I would have found your channel a long time ago.
Beautiful song by the Scorpions!❤❤
Still loving you
Rock u like a hurricane
Blackout 🤘🏽
Still Loving You is AWESOME. Going to listen to it right now.
I was sent to DE(that's Germany), shortly after the wall came down. It was so cool.
Love this song , I remember watching the wall go down live on tv ,still blows my mind that David hasslehoff was touring over there and got on the wall and was singing the freedom song
The line that always gets me is when Klaus Meine sings "like a storm wind that will ring the freedom bell for Peter Meine" then the guitar solo starts. The way I understand that is he is singing for a relative stuck in East Berlin.
How about a Godsmack song? In the video they teach a group of middle school kids the importance of music and show them to play and sign in the video.
Godsmack - "Unforgettable" 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Awesome suggestion
LEGENDARY moment in music history!!!🎵🎼🎶💜💜💜
This Song Gives Me Goosbumps Whenever I Heard It..
I was waiting for your reaction to the guitar solo, so many other reactions I have seen with no mention of the solo, yours was the first. It's the thing that really cements the song for me, fits so well, and beautiful in its own right!
Love this song. Oddly enough, it was also my 5th grade graduation song.
Chokes me up every time
I know you said that it wasn't emotional for you, but having lived during that time, it always is, every time, for me 👍
If you want a more impressive performance of his Voice You should listen to "Still loving You"....
Key references in the lyrics:
(1) "Moskva" is the Russian name for both Moscow and a river that runs through Moscow.
(2) "Gorky Park" is a major park along the Moskva River in Moscow.
(3) "Balalaika" is a Russian guitar-like instrument with a triangular base and (usually) three strings.
PLEASE REACT...eminem biggest freestyle in the world , Tim westwood tv.
🔥🔥👍
The very first time I heard this was while watching a Filipino cover band in Singapore. They nailed it, (including the whistle) I had been at sea so didn't get to hear it before that.
I LOVE the Scorpions.
I rock with them, but this my favorite song.

Back then, this was a song of hope. We thought the world would finally get its act together. Now, it just makes me sad. Klaus Meine is one of the greatest rock voices ever. Delivering mindblowing vocals for 50 years.
I found China White on your vid list - that might not be the best example for his vocals 😂 If you want to be impressed, to listen to older live versions from the late 70s of In Trance, or We'll Burn the Sky. His voice blows you out of the water. Or Send me an Angel, Always Somewhere, When the Smoke is Going Down. Incredible voice.
The first time I heard this I was working at East Kent Packers,in Kent,England. It's a huge fruit packing plant.
This song came over the loud speakers and it was like you could suddenly hear only the machines. Everyone has stopped talking and just listened.
**There's another song that will give you one of the deepest feelings. It's "Tell Me There's a Heaven",by Chris Rea. I cant watch it without crying. I just cant do it.
Here's thst urk if you want to watch it:;

What a beautiful time that was. As one who remembers Tiananmen Square, E. Germany, & the USSR, it was an absolutely AMAZING time in history. Freedom is popular. They put a short video of the "tank man" during Tiananmen in China. I've heard China won't even allow pics nor the words "tank man" to be posted on the internet. The people have gotten around it by posting edited photos of the "tank man" but they put a row of rubber duckies over the tanks. There are various edited versions to get around the censors.
I love this song and video so much! I graduated from high school in 1989 and remember seeing many of my favorite bands of the era traveling to Russia and performing at the Moscow Music Peace Festival on the Mtv. What an amazing time to be alive and coming of age...Peace & Love to All from the great State of Georgia (US)!

I was 22 when all of this happened. I didn’t pay a lot of attention because I was in college and working and busy. Music was always there, though.
YOU NEED "Is there anymore out there" by Scorpions!
Watch the Scorpions at HELL FEST PARIS
It's Great
Dat song reminds me of d times bk on d day ....I'm 44 ughhh shhh lol but very nostalgic
This was a time when there was serious hope that the world could become a better place. Unfortunately, we missed the chance. Klaus Meine changed the lyrics after the invasion of Ukraine.
The thing I Love is new blood watching the best of the best

For a similar vibe react to "When The Children Cry" by White Lion. So touching 😢
The reunification of Germany was a big story in human history. I remember watching all this happen and later learning on tv that a lady gave birth to twin sons in Russia and named them Mikhail and Ronald/
Was für ein wahnsinnigen Song... Ich bin 1985 geboren, ich habe diese Veränderung als kleiner Junge in Westdeutschland erlebt. Ich habe gefühlt, dass da etwas grosses passiert. Dieses Lied erinnert an die Zeit, an den kalten Krieg, an den Frieden. Gerade in der jetzigen Zeit ist dieses Lied so bedeutsam um zu zeigen, wie weit wir waren und wie jahrzehntelange Konflikte friedlich beendet werden können. Ich spiele dieses Lied meinem Sohn vor, erkläre ihm was vor 35 jahren passiert ist und auch er versteht und spürt mit seinen 12 Jahren diese tiefe Bedeutung des Liedes...Die Scorpions haben die Hymne des Friedens und der Menschlichkeit überhaupt gebracht. Diese Band ist unglaublich! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
I love the scorpions since I was in h8gh school when they got really popular. Awesome ❤🎉
I’m so worried about our democracy here in the United States. 😢🇺🇸
Nobody ever wrote a song this powerful to celebrate people losing their freedom - only gaining it.
Check "Still loving you", "Rock you like a hurricane"
Yeah... we thought, when the wall came down that, with Russia, we were seeing a more peaceful future working together. It was a nice time.
I'm German, and i HATE this Song!!!!
We had hope at the end of the 80s and start of the 90s. Or maybe I was just young.
Let your balalaika say what my guitar wants to sing! Is the line I like.
Unique moment in rock history and also a disappointing song which has a curiously great solo. It's because of this song particularly why this band is not known for their heavier and also more creative albums and songs, which were mostly from the 70s. I'm a huge fan since 25 years ago and since I've had the luck and the patience to go through their discography at that time, it didn't take me a long time to realize that this song is hugely overrated and their legacy, in a way, is basically tarnished, since people kind of only know their easier, pop stuff, whether it is a rocker or a ballad. Well, at least I'm glad they sold many albums and are rich. As for "Wind of Change", it doesn't do the band justice for sure.
you see people enjoying this song and getting emotional about it's meaning and you feel the urge to say it's kind of sh*tty just to stick out. What can I say, you sound like you're 12 or something
I've been there ... that's why I got tears in my eyes! I rember it very well!
I always associate this song with one-hit wonder Jesus Jones' "Right Here, Right Now," a band and song with which they have absolutely nothing in common other than being about the same topic, and that they both topped the US charts at approximately the same time. I think I bought both cassette singles in the same trip to the record store, actually.
Jesus Jones weren’t one hit wonders in the UK. Right Here Right Now wasn’t even their biggest hit here.
I left Germany in 83 ,went to the 101 and got out late 84 after my 4 and when that wall came down I thought about all my German friends who were going to be able to see their friends and family. There's a huge piece of that wall at THE MOST Syracuse NY. 8 miles from my house
Now react to "live is life" by Opus
Great song! Sails of Charon is a must to listen too!
Klaus is pronounced as in "at". Not Klos.
Great and meaningful song. 😢
still makes me cry and yes had the cassette
It was an amazing moment for EVERYONE!! It felt GOOD to FEEL GOOD about a POSITIVE THING HAPPENING in the world!! I know I cried!! This song is such a GREAT TRIBUTE to the WARM MEMORY!!! Just SO AWESOME!! GREAT REACTION!!! :) HUGS!!
The last wall which you saw coming down. Was from Rodger Walters concert, after the Berlin Wall came down he came up with the idea recreating” the Wall ( Pink Floyd album)” with various artist, as he had split from Pink Floyd. The scorpions played at that concert. They sang in the flesh, and run like hell with Rodger. Van Morrison , sinead O’Connor , Brian Adam’s to name just 3. There are clips on TH-cam. But you have reacted to most of the artist on your channel.
I must have been asleep when this was popular, but I feel like I'm hearing this for the first time and not sure how that's possible. I like it. Beautiful song.
We dared to hope.
Scorpions could capture "the air" of what people were living through that time so that We can still feel it now, amazing...
I hope humanity can learn from that epic moment. Thanks Scorpions and many thanks for reminding us this video
Scorpions was the epicenter of my teenage years…. From Blackout to The Zoo and everything in between. I feel so lucky to have had those years in the 80’s as my youth. I can really appreciate how great it was now, when I see what the world has become.

When are you gonna start Boston's 3rd stage?
Love this song. Love his voice. It has so much meaning.
One of legendary songssss ever madeeeeeee,,,
Hey G dog, try something a little more harder from them. Try Dynamite, they closed their shows with it for years.
🤘🏽Dynamite rocks🤘🏽
One of the best songs of Scorpions..
