HIP HOP FAN'S FIRST TIME HEARING 'Scorpions - Wind Of Change' | GENUINE REACTION

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ต.ค. 2024
- Here with another Scorpions reaction. Before Wind Of Change, the only Scorpions song I had listened to was Still Loving You. A lot of people told me that isn't their usual sound so I decided to try something else by them. Their sound so far has been impeccable and the lead singers vocals are a 10 out of 10! Let me know what you think of this one!
Here is my reaction to hearing Scorpions - Wind Of Change for the first time. I hope you enjoy it!

I feel like this song needs to be heard today and everyday because of our current conflicts around the globe. This is such a beautiful melody and sentiment. I hope the new children of tomorrow may still have dreams to share and adventures to take.
exactly--still relevant today, and we need another wind of change. Recorded 30+ years ago, but still relevant in 2024.
Totally agree...
Reality is far gone
The true Emotion has been Lost...
Take care....✌🕊
Ditto and I concur!
It's been pretty impactful since its release in 90. I was 12 when it premiered on MTV (back when mtv was actually *music television* 😉) although I've not yet heard the updated lyric version that Scorpions now perform.
I’ve seen Scorpions 2x in concert. Amazing group.
I am old, I am german ... the pictures you saw ... I was there! ... I always have tears in my ears/eyes, when I hear this song. A song of hope! *peace ♥
We can dream, can’t we?? Peace ❤
Peace ! ❤
thank you for sharing this!!!^^^
How awesome
I was in Germany right before the wall came down! I cried then and when I saw in come down I cried like a baby!!!🤘💜
Song is about the fall of the Soviet Union and the fall of the Berlin wall. Now, it seems, those wall are going back up. We all need this song especially now.
I'd already posted before I saw your comment. Remember it too well. Watched on TV as the panels were pulled down by the crowds in Berlin.
November 9, 1989. I remember it very well. It happened on my 11th birthday.
I lived in Weisbaden , Germany when the Berlin Wall was dismantled and I have a piece of it.
@@EastCoastGal66 hahahah bro keeps that piece as a teddybear, cuddles with it every night
@@EastCoastGal66 We have a piece of it as well as a constant reminder. That night was something to remember.
I'll never forget this, when East Germany and West Germany were reunited. I still get emotional.
Today's youth did not experience the Cold War between the NATO countries and the Soviet Bloc. This song came out as the Soviet Union was collapsing, and the two Germanies reunified and became one Germany. This song was so emotional, so hopeful, for a world that was changing.
" RHYTHM OF LOVE", "NO ONE LIKE YOU", and " ROCK YOU LIKE A HURRICANE " are all bangers.
Songs from Savage Amusement don't get much love. It's a solid album. Referring to Rhythm of Love.
Hell yes, do em Mol.
This is when the West was starting to get it's shit together... How far we have fallen.
Yes. Due to the globalists trying to form a World autocracy. The destination is Brave New World unless we fight against it.
Scorpions the zoo 🤘🤘🤘🤘
best cruising song ever recorded
Iron Maiden's version is 🔥
Boomer here who grew up during the Cold War. I visited both West and East Berlin in May 1988, thinking I’d never see the Berlin Wall come down in my lifetime. 18 months later, people were dancing atop the wall and tearing it down with pickaxes and their bare hands. My first reaction was, “They’ll be shot!” But no. In a moment, it seemed, everything had changed. It was a beautiful, thrilling moment that I’ll never forget.
the history is about Germany and the fall of the Berlin wall but more importantly, about the end to all wars. They are a German band so it would be heavily referenced by them seeing as they were together as a band and played through that time period.
It is about scorpions playing in Moskow, in August 1989 in front of 300.000 russians! The berlin wall came down in November 1989.
He learned this in Russian and sang it when they played in Red Square. Scorpions are and always will be some of the best musicians of all time.
The fall of the Berlin wall was such a happy time for the western world, I still have to fight back literal tears every time I see and hear this video.. especially in light of what western governments have become since. I was in 10th grade #GenX
No One Like You and Rock You like a Hurricane.
Probably their most signature songs, yes!!
Rock you like a Hurricane is such a banger
A significant song for a German band like the Scorpions. A song about the reunification of Germany. Being able to reunite with lsot family and friends.after many years of oppression under the Soviet boot of retaliation after WWII. A song of freedom and brotherhood.
Scorpions have a pretty diverse catalogue. You won't be able to pin down a "characteristic" sound style for them, because they don't have one. They just make music, and are much less concerned with the marketability of a consistent sound.
Keep in mind, they've been going since 1965 (and are still recording and doing shows today). So these guys are right up there with the Beatles and the Stones.
Most of their early songs are about Sex and Love, with a few exceptions sprinkled in, but that only continued into the mid 1980s, and everything after that has been a crapshoot, the subject could be anything.
Since vocalist Klause joined in the late 70s, (he's the singer on all their studio albums), they have been regarded for rock ballads, but that is by no means all they do.
Notable songs:
"Bad Boys Running Wild" (put them on the map)
"Rock You Like A Hurricane" (their most famous)
"Animal Magnetism" (most commonly cited by other musicians)
"The Future Never Dies" (Best live recording, not overdubbed)
"The Zoo" (A fan Favorite)
"Humanity" (Revitalized the band with younger audiences)
"Rock Believer" (that one came out less than 18 months ago).
"Love is the Answer" - MTV Unplugged (Hear the band founder, Rudy, sing... yes, they have two accomplished singers, even if you normally only hear the one).
The band however will celebrate their 60th anniversary next year, so their discography is massively larger than this, many hundreds of songs. Also tons of guest appearances on other artist's albums as well. I especially like the track Klause recorded with Avantasia.
They are, by far, one of the most influential rock bands ever. They make everyone's top-10 list for most influential bands, along side The Stones, ACDC, Skynyrd, Zepplin, etc.
Scorpions - "The Zoo" should be your next reaction by them.
"Rock You Like a Hurricane" is always the best bet.
@martinsv9183 it's a commercial type of song. He should explore some older Scorpions tunes like The Zoo and Blackout. Hell actually even earlier Scorps than that.
Absolutely
@@metalmaniac1244 If you by "commercial" mean that everyone likes it, then yes. And that's why you start with those types of songs. Instead of doing the same misstake that I predicted with ZZTop.
This came out shortly after the fall of the Berlin Wall, but it was equally about peace and the brotherhood of man, Nice tune
The guitarist is Rudolph Schenker, who formed the band in 1965. Things did not come together till 1970 when the singer Klaus Mein and Rudolf's younger brother, Michael (15 years old) joined the band. Two amazing and ground breaking guitarist from same family.
Michael Schenker was just 16 when The Scorpions recorded their debut album in 1972, but Michael left in 1973 to join UFO (another band you need to check out). He did briefly return to The Scorpions in 1978 before forming his own band, MSG (Michael Schenker Group).
UFO's live double album is amazing! Need to listen "Rock Bottom" live.😊
November 9, 1989 and I cried. No Border, no wall between me and my cousins.
It´s so sad that the wind has changed again. Isn´t it incredible how music can get to the heart of a message.
I served in russian army in 2010-2011, Scorpions was favourie band of my commander and he loved this song. He was born in Kyev. He is good man, he retired from military service in 2011 too. Don't even know what he feels today.
It's about the end of the cold war. I was in Germany when the wall fell and this song holds a special place in my heart.
We had so much hope back than🙏🙏
Cheers from Berlin 👍🍀😎
We were stationed in Wiesbaden WEST GERMANY when the Cold War ended and got to celebrate with out German neighbors and my German coworkers. It was an amazing AMAZING time to be living there. Great reaction !
Quintessential 80's bruv I think we take for granted how great this music is because we grew up with it. To see a new generation embrace and enjoy it is truly a beautiful thing.
Scorpions is such a beautiful band to listen too. No props or fancy stage just pure beauty 😘 I love how you feel so much when you listen to the music of the past ❤️
"Blackout" is a Scorpions must!
I 2nd this request 🔥🤘🏽🔥
Rock you like a hurricane is a good one
Congrats!!!! Thanks for taking me back bro!! Scorpions, " Rock you like a Hurricane"
We had so much hope when the iron curtain fell. I was in the U.S. Army at the time and it was like we were all brothers and sisters. It hurts my soul to see how it’s all become divided again. We had a chance, I don’t think we will get another in my lifetime. This song alway reminds me of that special moment.
I see it as a happy song. Winds of Change are changing things for the better.
I’m from Wales, went to watch the wall come down. I still have my piece of the wall. We were so full of hope & love. But here we are in a world with way too many wars 😢 I still choose HOPE & LOVE! Great reaction as always xx
This is for poetin and all other warmakers🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
This is a brilliant song. Such an important piece of music that is still relevant today. They played this at Hellfest 2015, and it is absolutely worth a reaction. It's a fantastic rendition and will give you goosebumps. Also should listen to Still Lovin you, it's a great song which they also played at Hellfest and was a great performance.
Yesss - The Scorpions are one of the exports from Germany that have been very successful beyond the country's borders - even in the USA.
We are very proud...
For the Scorpions at their best, listen to WORLDWIDE LIVE. All the bangers, played perfectly.
Agreed, one of the best live albums ever! 🤘😎
When I was a youngin, my dad was stationed at Checkpoint Charlie on the wall...I have a photo of him relieving himself on the wall and giving his russian shadow the finger...he brought home a chunk of the wall from when it came down plus a ton of Polish Solidarity stuff...cool shit, breh!
Rock you like a Hurricane has got to be your next Scorpions reaction
Great scorpion songs to start with are The Zoo, Big city nights, Rock You Like a Hurricane...
THIS SCORPION 'S SONG USED TO MAKE ME CRY 😢 SOOOO MANY AWESOME TRACKS MOLLYBOY!! AWESOME REACTION MOLLYBOY 💙 AND THANK YOU WHOMEVER REQUESTED THIS GEM 💎!! 😊💓🤘✌️
CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN ON YOUR 50K + IS AWESOME!!
My generation of 60,s and 70,s had talent
A timeless song. This and Silent Lucidity by Queensryche and Wish you were Here 3 of my favorites of all time.
That solo is so simple, but so perfect
The wall coming down was a magical moment in time. Freedom feel of peace! Gets me every time. Beautiful song….
Any One in the Military during the Cold War especially in the 80s.....US Navy Here USS Stark FFG-31 Finds this song heart felt
this song makes grown men weep. i'm not sure how much of the song's composition and release timing was a PR stunt. the Scorps, unlike any other german band, had become the "rock ambassadors" of Germany - no other band could've appropriately presented this song. but in hindsight, it doesn't matter. maybe it was really the band that genuinely felt like creating this - they were, after all, among the few that had played behind the Iron Curtain. whatever - what matters are the memories, the magic of the moment, and the beauty of the song. :-)
Yeah, the timing on this was flawless. It was recorded before the wall fell, but only by a few months, and the video was released just after the wall came down.
The cracks were starting to show with the Soviet Union, so it was assumed the wall would fall at some point, but nobody knew exactly when (it was kind of a surprise when it finally happened, even if it was seen as inevitable, it really happened fast... kind of by mistake, lol... interesting bit of history there, lol). But there were years of building anticipation leading up to that, which is what the song is really about... not something that had happened, but something that was anxiously anticipated.
I remember it well. Not their best work musically, but socially their most important
“ When the smoke is going down” another amazing song by them.
I just traveled back to the 80's, where most of the bands had the perfect solo, you don't need to pull off a 1000 notes solo for it to be good, this is a clear example of what I'm talking about, just beautiful and perfect for the song, there couldn't be a better solo, no way.
Please react to "I'm still loving you" also from Scorpions, another masterpiece out of the 80's.
SCORPIONS ROCK!! SO GOOD: LIVE!!! ENJOY the JOURNEY, MOLLYBOY!! :) HUGS!
There's another "banger" that this band with the world: "Rock You Like A Hurricane". Amazing riffs and you get to hear the "other side" of their lead singer, Klaus. I believe they're still performing. Great song choice.
They had a bunch of great songs - Rock You Like A Hurricane, Rhythm Of Love, The Zoo, No One Like You, Still Loving You are just a few good ones!
I was stationed in Germany when the Berlin Wall was torn down and East/West unified. This song was out around that time and captured the zeitgeist.
When I was a kid, we learned in European Geography about East Germany and West Germany. Now for many years, just Germany. This song came to be associated with the fall of the Berlin wall. I enjoy watching younger people like yourself hearing these uber-popular bands and songs for the first time. I've heard this tune hundreds of times. good show!
Scorpions: Holiday
One of the few rock songs dad liked. So much optimism after the Wall fell and 35 years later we've gone and mucked it up as only we can...😔
This song is special to me, my Oma and Opa (Grandparents) came to the US from Germany (East) the way people had to live over there during that time was very hard. I always remember my grandparents stories when I listen to this.
I miss you Oma and Opa 💔
Still Loving You is my favorite Scorpion's song, but they've got plenty of good ones. Love Klaus's voice.
The message Imo is timeless, and generation importance
No one like you, in trance, loving you Sunday morning, Arizona, all bangers.
This is a song about hope. It is perfectly fine to love it. It is certainly still impactful when you think about it in terms of today’s world, but when these events in the video were happening, it hit even harder. It definitely gave me hope as a teenager. I hope today’s youth in areas under these same things get their chance to hope soon
This song holds a special place in my heart. Summer of '90 I was 14 running around with friends getting into all kinds of shenanigans met my first girlfriend. It was my teenage summer, and this song was the anthem. Had no idea how much change was coming...
You have covered many great 80's bands. Scorpions were one of the best concerts I ever went to. If you want another cold war song, Tesla's Modern Day Cowboy is great. If you like 80's rock guitar shredders Tesla's Love Song will blow you back even further. Enjoy the journey!
This was a great time in history. Watching the wall go down and the reunification of Germany was awesome. Lot's of your generation don't even know there was an East and West Germany.
Brilliant choice ❤😊
One of the greatest bands ever they have no weaknesses
This song always takes me back, first time I heard it I had just gotten my first car and was taking a drive when this song came on the radio, it literally stopped me in my tracks, I actually had to pull over and listen to the guitar solo....that was a long time ago. I'm a middle-aged man now.
No One Like You and Blackout are 2 of my favs from the Scorpions
Mollyboy,the Scorps ROCK! I saw them in 1988 at the Monsters of Rock concert! The spectacular lineup included Van Halen,Dokken,Kingdom Come( a Led Zeppelin cover band),Scorpions,and Metallica!8 hours of unbridled music!🎛🎸🥁🎹🎙🎶🤘😎
You are now entering the World of Rock Ballads....
Scorpions were around forever, before having a major hit, outside their native Germany. Damn near 15 years into their career, they started to have hits with the 1979 album Lovedrive. The Blackout album in 1982, was their first huge breakthrough, that made them a household name. From 79-92, they did really well. " rock you like a hurricane" was the biggest, besides this. You've likely heard " rock you like a hurricane" its been in tons of movies
The Scorpions - Sails of Charon with their original guitarist Uli Jon Roth is a banger. He is an amazing guitarist, and to think the Scorpions "second guitar player" is still awesome says a lot about the talent in that band.
This was the Hymn of the 90ies
I was fortunate to see these in the early 80s they were brilliant
Classic SCORPIONS ...rock you like a hurricane and when you came into my life great scorp songs...
Scorpions are a great hard rocking band that also threw in softer songs that both men and women could enjoy (some girls don't like heavy rock). You picked two softer ones thar are awesome and make sure to check out the harder stuff too. You'll like it. The Zoo. Blackout, Rock you like a hurricane. No one like you. Big city nights. Other soft melodies that must be heard are Send me an Angel. Holiday. Loving you Sunday morning. All hits! Keep going down that rabbit hole.
This is one of those songs that touches your heart! 💜
Perfect whistle intro...touching and heartfelt 🤘🏽
Loving you Sunday morning , make it real , no one like you , rock you like a hurricane , we'll burn the sky .
[lighters up]
This came out when I was in high school, and it gets me EVERY FN TIME.
My first Scorpions song I heard was “ Speedys Coming “ from the mid 70’s. Total Banger !
Scorpions have a lot of “Save To Playlist” Bangers 🔥❤️🎸
Great reaction MollyBoy!! To fully understand this song is to know what was going on at the time! The USSR, Soviet Union as we knew it was falling apart - the Iron Curtain was coming down. Germany was being reunified, the Berlin Wall was being dismantled - Scorpions being from Germany understood the impact of this - families that had been apart for decades were now able to reunite! It was huge - and there was a beautiful feeling of hope!
This song was more than just a ballad - it was a love song to the peace that was happening at the time - unfortunately, we need this again - how fragile peace can be! Let's hope a Wind Of Change comes through again! Cheers!
Scorpions have many hits.You have to check out that is a slow ballad song
This song still kicks ass
The Legend *Scorpions* with the legendary voice of *Klaus Meine* and a legendary song that is timeless, we so need a song of hope and music can do that, bring us all together from all over the world. Great channel and reactions as always, you are awesome 💖🙂👍💯Thank you.
No one like you is a great song as well. This one you just played is so beautiful
This is such a good song. His voice is something else. Next try Still Loving You.
Believe in Loveis my favorite Scorpions somg. Grew up in this era.
This song was so prolific during the fears of the Cold War era! I remember when it was released and how important the words and video were; it still to this day, hits me right in the feels ❤❤
The guitarist has a brother with a great band "This Michael Schenker group". Killer guitar.
The sound of the Cold War ending. Truly classic. More than a song, this was us watching the social constructs of the world evolving before our eyes. Now, The Zoo is my favorite Scorpions song.
Ah man, today would’ve been a perfect day for Cold Chisel’s “When the War is Over” (live 2003) - such an emotional trio of songs!
Strongly recommend Scorpions "Rock You Like a Hurricane" an 80s rock classic
Legends and in the day, 1 of the BEST LIVE BANDS EVER...! ( It gives me Chills to this day...) l remember ... lm 54
Oh there will definitely be winds of change in the very near future.
You have to listen to rock you like a hurricane!
Great reaction my Man!
The 1960s, 1970s and, the 1980s was the greatest generations of
music of all time. Period.
SO GLAD you are discovering this. We need People just like you to
carry on these decades of music and never let them die.
Rock on!
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.
10/03/2017 Grand Sierra Resort Reno
I remember when this album came out, riding the bus to elementary school 😂 Z104 was the radio station and it takes me back to the smell of the bus seats and diesel fuel exhaust smell😊 good times
I love that you’re learning. 70’s and 80’s rock is truly amazing. There’s so much more for you to learn. More Heart songs, Boston, triumph, journey, foreigner, pat benatar another great female voice, queen, Styx, Kansas, bad company, the cars, the police, it’s unending great stuff.
All Scorpions did was put out great songs❤
