#Scorpions #BigCityNights #Remastered #Rock - เพลง
I was in Sea Bright, NJ at The Peninsula House beach club where part of this video was shot. The brunette shooting pool in the beginning of the video took me upstairs to meet the band, and they couldn’t have been any cooler. They took pictures, signed autographs and drank beer and let me hang for an hour like I was one of the guys (even though I was merely a 17 year old fan). Some of the best guys and best memories of my life.
WOW!
But It was shot in Cali...wtf
I think that brunette is the drummer’s wife
Cool story man! What an experience.
@@johnburkhardt462 Yup! Wife at the time, Tammy Ventrella.
I believe that somewhere in the world, there are people who feel the same emotions that I feel when I listen to masterpieces like this song.
Right there with you. This song and video sums up the energy of the 80s in one shot. Lots of memories come flooding in every time I watch this.
Right here. Greetings from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Nauseous ? lol
born in the wrong era.
Ou yes ! "Big City Nights" are bending time and space :)
Todays youth really missed out … 80s and 90s were the best.
Wow, People having fun, the 80s are far cry from the sad mentality of today.
So blessed to of been a teenager in the 80’s. A great time to be alive.
1980s = One of the greatest times to be alive.
2020s = Also one of the most incredible times to be alive. We’re bearing witnes to the collapse of the deep state. 💪🇺🇸🧂🧂🧂
You dam right 🙏 these kids these days don't know what it is to have fun and party. To many phones.
You're goddamn well right about that. 🤘
i wish i was born in the 80's fuck my generation
Amen my friend, you echo my sentiments exactly. (Are you Steve Elliot from Def Leppard
I was a US Marine back in the 80's you wouldn't believe how big the Scorpions were in Asia. I used to rock out to them in a bar called the Sierra club in Olongapo City Philippines back then. What a great time, cheap beer, hot chicks, rockin tunes!
Chris Cline Been there. Across Shit River and into the strip. Stopped there on our way to the Persian Gulf.
Thank You both for your service. ✊✊✊👊👊👊💪💪💪💪
What he said. ^^
Thank You!!!
Westpac!
I probably hoisted a San Miguel with you...hope you are still rocking it!!!
Kid in the '70s, teen in the 80s, what a time to be alive, some of the best concerts and music.
REALTALK, SAD FOR ME😢
Back when men had BALLS!
Was 18 in 81 and seen a lot of just wicked concerts. Best years ever...
Me too!!
Loved the bands from my teenage years.
What a masterpiece of the Scorpions. The 80"s still rules .
I think it's fair to say there will never be any job cooler then being an 80's rock star......damn.
Time machine, please.
What Up Jeff!
Your comment has had me thinking for the past two weeks. What an era of amazement! As I am an old man (born in '71), this depicts the time of celebratory being. I've not seen a time of such equalization since! WOW!
Scott Carter You're not old.
@@MidosujiSen I was rocking the Scorpions in my early 30s and I am 68,,,now that's old !
No shit huh lol
Call me. We can arrange something
One of the greatest bands of all time.
Top 5.
LMAO 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
For me one of the best bands of ever ! Real talent, great songs, excellent live performances !!!
Music like this I truly miss
These guys f-ing killed it. God does todays music suck!
It really really does doesn't it
@@edwardscott46
Yes it does!!! But there are some great up and coming bands working hard to keep rock alive💙❣
The World sucks these days.
The 80's were there Best....Saw I Scorpions with Iron Maiden now 35 years later saw them in Chicago one last time. The day these bands retire will be very sad....they just don't make music like this anymore. Thank You Scorpions for all the Great Concerts.
steve monti scorpions won’t retire until they’re all dead trust me. And that won’t happen for a long time. I’m 15 and will probably be able to go to one of their shows someday.
A-M-E-N! In my opinion, the '80s WERE, and ALWAYS WILL BE, the "PINNACLE OF CIVILIZATION!" Why everything "went down or downhill" in the '90s is ANYONE'S guess.
@@AngelofAnguish
90s grunge was the start of the downfall. 2000's was worse. There are now some potential bands around. Let's keep hope alive!!
Nothing beats out numbers of the beast
@@richardlacey4923
😘😘😘
This song kicks ass and I can't wait to see scorpions live in concert in 2023
Those were the days!!! Being a teenager in the mid 80's... just words can't express!! Awesome and meeting my teenage girlfriend at the Scorpions World Wide live Tour Movie in 1985!!! I wish the younger people now could have experienced what it was like living those times!!! Long live the 80's!!!
Ahhh, man I miss the good times associated with this music. No one acting all Hard or drama filled. Just enjoy the moment and live to the fullest. Long Live The 80's rock!
underrated comment,im from this era...i agree
Very well put 👍🤘
It is nearly impossible to describe being on my 20's in the 80s and the SCORPS being my all time fav rockers. Saw them 3 times in Calif. Fresno, Oakland, and Orange co/Irvine. Seeing Klaus belt out awesome lyrics and Mattias smile and SHRED with Rudolf the best Rock Rhythm guitarist is like being on the best drug induced euphoria u can imagine. I am blessed beyond belief to be alive during the 80s. The memories, the girls, the drugs, the live concerts. I will never forget these highlife years. Long live rock and the SCORPS.
Scorpions music + '80s hot girls in bikinis = heaven
Valhalla !!!
hell yeah!
Cássio Amaral dorgas too
+beer
Yes
This gets my blood pumping every time
late 70's through early 90's was the best time
I'm only 10 and i love all of the 80's music. Bless my parents
This tour was the Scorps at their best. They always had great energy and sounded phenomenal. Not sloppy live, that was for sure.
YUP, they were the best ive ever heard live , definitely not just a studio creation like most bands
I saw them in 83
That was the song that made me fall in love with Rock n Roll as teenager in the 80's ...I still hold that feeling, the goosebumps, I mean....I still can feel EVERYTHING! I got this record from my uncle for X mas back then 1985, it changed my life FOREVER ! Scorpions always gonna be one The Best rock bands EVER ! The years has pass and they STILL GOT IT ! Long life !
I love this video. It always makes me wish I was around in the 80's. I'll still take being 24 and jamming out to Scorpions while everyone else is jamming out to The Weeknd, long live hard rock ànd heavy metal!! 🤘
Nothing wrong with the Weeknd but The Scorpions are awesome
Love both!!!
Nothing wrong with The Weeknd, just wish most kids these days appreciated what music influenced today's hits
Right on
Trust me the 80's rock ROCKED!... looking at past decades and band, and there were good bands for sure but, the 80's was a hell of time 4 me ')
Matthias and Rudolf have written some of the sexiest guitar riffs in the history of classic rock! Amazing duo.
Another thing I like about their style is that their songs are full of those small, "mean" licks during the verses. Basically in every verse of the song you can hear some different new lick, and this applies to all of Scorps' songs! This adds so much to the songs. Amazing, simply amazing talent from these guys.
Been a fan for years now, and I think I'm not that good with words to describe the feeling that overwhelms me when I hear some of my favorite songs by them.
I know exactly what you're talking about :)
Nonmewon
I love bands that have twin attack guitar riffs.
"Lovedrive" ,"Is there anybody There?", "Another Piece Of Meat",
"Holiday", "In Trance" I could go on......😍💋👢
Matthias is the king of the fill.
Wow! There's enough electricity in that crowd to power a large city!
😢 Sad Scorpion news...
Farewell James Kottack, drummer for the cosmos.
Long live Rock N Roll ❤
Praise the Lord!!!
Music from my teen years. We all used to rock out to Scorpions on our Sony Walkmans back then.
I remember once when I jogged from Hayward to Oakland California and back in Converse All Stars with a Sony Walkman and this album on cassette and Bad Companies, Bad Company album on cassette as I was jogging with my waist mounted neoprene Walkman holder.
@@davemoss9505 that’s so cool to hear man! i’m from Hayward🤘🏼 my dad raised me on this stuff! He graduated from Moreau in ‘85
he has an unmistakable tone of voice
Klause Meine!
I just love the way that man sings!!! LOVE HIM!!!!
English his second language
👍 Yeah,....he sounds just like the Scorpions Lead singer :p
He sure does. It’s unmistakable!!
Uwielbiam tą witalność życia, radość na koncertach, piękne tańczące dziewczyny, wspomnienia młodych czasów. W trudnych chwilach dają wytchnienie. 56- latek z Polski Pozdrawiam 👋
When I was little boy I saw this video when it was in its initial run and when i saw Rudy with that damned flying v I was hooked. I have about 25 flying Vs now because of him and the Scorpions' kickass music.
That's cool. Thanks for sharing, we all have a couple 3 classics , I know I do. Back to the tunes...
Man the 80's were FUN🤘🏼
Sure was.... I was there....Lived it and Loved it!!!
Yes they were
Totally.
Yes, drugs, misogyny, violence, racism, bullying, poverty... VERY FUNNY :)
@@mcxandy6003 because that doesn't exist today right!
I’m only 20 but ima a classic rock addict. Always have been. I was born in the wrong time and in my opinion Scorpions are one of my favorite bands and probably one if not the most underrated bands of all time
Sou jovem fui criada ouvindo músicas antigas eu gosto muito
Wow aren't you so special and quirky 🤪
The war was in phillspine
@@kiolube Are you ok?
The band is fairly popular, but it’s their non-hit songs that are underrated. This song is better than Rock You like A Hurricane in my honest opinion
ALL I CAN SAY IS NOT MANY BANDS LAST 50 PLUS YEARS! SCORPIONS ROCK AND RULE!😀
My absolute favorite rock group. Love my Scorpions!
FUCK!!!!!! I MISS THE 80's!!!!
Me too and I was born in that era. I barely remember it but it was definitely a better time.
+TH-cam Renegade That's cool. Great music never dies. Keep rockin' !!!
I was fortunate to be a teen during this time. The music, movies etc. Although rock better in the 70's.
wow you guys are lucky:) because todays music sucks and thats in every genre.i which i was in that era but i was born in the 90's.
Dad Rock Mic drop!
Fortunate to have been brought backstage, fed, given a pass, a drumstick, a guitar pic AND THEN driven in one of their two limos, with the band, back to the Sheraton Hotel in Harrisburg, PA following their City Island gig on this tour. I wore my ACCEPT tee from a recent tour and they all recognized me from the audience. Bob, the tour manager and I listened to The Alarm's "Declaration" and The Smiths' "The Smiths" on cassette before the after-party started. We had many Scorpions albums in the '70s and into the early '80s so this was quite a thrill. THANK YOU SCORPIONS!
Quit bragging!
😁
@@GD20254 ;-)
😍😍😍
Lucky
I get goosebumps every time I see this video because I miss the 80s so bad. I feel really bad for the teenagers and younger adults of today that arrived too late to the party.
They can’t party now without shooting and fighting because everyone now is unshakably self centered.
Underrated guitarists the whole band
Marty Callner - 'I did a video for the Scorpions called Big City Nights. MTV rejected it because there were too many girls in bikinis. So, I added 7 more shots of girls in bikinis and I sent it in, and they aired it.'
i did a groupie after scorpions party
hahaha
@@leftyzappa
8ñuñry
When MTV was MTV!
Rudy on that flying V
Jabbs! one of the most underrated guitarist! Anywhere you read about Scorpions you always hear about Uli and Michael Schenker...but Jabbs and Rudi are one of the greatest guitar duos like Adrian and Dave or Glen and KK. Rudolf has the tightest rhythm. And when he solos, Boy! he delivers!
arunashamal agreed but jabbs is my inspiration
+arunashamal VERY WELL SAID!!!
Scorpions haven't missed a beat and as long as they can play those oh so sweet guitar riffs, rock will never die!!!!!
I Like ULI
i'm 14 and the scorpions are my favorite band
You have a very good taste. Congratulations from an 60 years old german guy.👍
Bravo
Rock on ....saying hi from Germany...
I only slept 3 hours yet this video and song reenergized me !!🎵🎼🎶🥁🎸🎤💕
And WHY ? Only 3 hours hmmm
@@bobravenscraft5376 I esa probably in a home cleaning rampage 🤷♀️don’t recall lol have a safe day ☀️☀️
@Justin B most likely !! 🤘🎸 have a safe week !! 🙏☀️☀️
Pure Rock & Roll! How many of my days in my teens were spent hauling ass in my Camaro with the Scorps blasting on my fine stereo
greatest hard rock band ever
one of the best.
@@albertchandler2 sorry motley crue is #1
Damn! You can tell these dudes had FUN!! Great tunes, HOT CHICKS! And after parties that are legend today! Time machine anyone?
🤟😃🤟🎸🎸🎸
I have a tardis.
I was a US Infantryman stationed on the DMZ in South Korea in the mid 80's. This band got Me through some very tough times, thanks
87-88
This is how we kept warm during winter in the 80's. Rockin out to the Scorpions!
Scorpions concerts in the 80s...now those were one helluva show!
Definitely, i think i seen them at least 6 times back in the day and most recently around 2006ish. Detroit Rock City Baby.
I sometimes think I’m in the wrong generation
@@williamsizemore98 I've only seen them 4 times, I need to step my game up.
I was at the May 21st Rosemont Horizon show, Klaus said do you see all the camera's? we are filming a video! it was an awesome show
The Scorpions were a kick-ass rock band, until 1990, when Klaus Meine started to whistle.
hahahahahaha...is true
agreed but wind of change is a good song
One of the greatest guitar intros into a song ever!
The zoo 1st
Love this song and video. 80s ruled!
The Scorpions helped make the early-mid 80s Awesome! Totally Awesome! 85 was, by FAR, the best overall year of my life. Remember how computers were all the rage, but they never once mentioned, computers would track and spy on, your entire lives.
1982- Judas Priest - Electric Eye. LOL
Up here in space
I'm looking down on you
My lasers trace
Everything you do
You think you've private lives
Think nothing of the kind
There is no true escape
I'm watching all the time
I'm made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean
I'm elected electric spy
I'm protected electric eye
Always in focus
You can't feel my stare
I zoom into you
You don't know I'm there
I take a pride in probing all your secret moves
My tearless retina takes pictures that can prove
I'm made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean
I'm elected electric spy
I'm protected electric eye
Electric eye, in the sky
Feel my stare, always there
There's nothing you can do about it
Develop and expose
I feed upon your every thought
And so my power grows
I'm made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean
I'm elected electric spy
I'm protected electric eye
Protected. Detective. Electric eye
@@scooterss2112 yeah, I too thought the song prophetic!
@@scooterss2112 Priest rules!!!
Jesus those beach women in the beginning. No personal trainers, no fitness obsession, no supplements, no plastic surgery... and still looking perfect. Those were the days.
No seed oils or tons of sugar in food back then
@@EkaitzIturbeltz More like less food in the first place.
Thin was in
Did you miss all those fake boobs?
“No supplements”…..u less you count dexitrim.
Saw them last night in Toronto, incredible concert. Scorpions rock forever...
those 80's baby!
Bikini's, Big hair, Killer Camera Poses and Good Jams keep a Big City Up at Night.
Feel the Scorpion Sting - in twenty Nineteen ;)
Mathias Jabbs, a true metal guitar master!
Will always be one my favorite bands.
This was cool...took me right back to the 10th grade...played the absolute hell out of that Blackout cassette...sounded killer in my lowered 84 Nissan lil truck.....Lil Trucks Unlimited....dam..those were fun times!!..))
Master shake did really well on this one

I envy you guys that lived in this era....The 80s was kick ass
I've grown to like this band even more in anticipation of my trip to Germany last September. But I was always a fan back in the early 90's.
saw them 2 times...soooooo loud and spot on..they blew the roof off the place...
they were touring with acdc...party
Hands down my favorite Scorpion song.They are such great performers.One of the best concerts I’ve ever seen.Sound great live.Miss 80’s Metal!
Agreed my favorite band and I seen them in 84 or 85 Love at first sting tour bon Jovi opened up for them scorps put on the best performance I've ever seen and I've seen alot of concerts
Good song. My favourite of theirs is As Soon As The Goodtimes Roll. My life description it is.
My dad passed away this year. This song big city nights is his anthem. I never knew my father but when i listen to this song its like he is still alive and im finding out who he was. His jams are my jams now.
This video makes me wish I was a rockstar.
Great. Try it
One of my room mates in Germany partied with the Scorps in a bar in Heidelburg. They were really cool and gave him an assload of autographed swag.
Thing is, Klaus Meine has a voice that cuts through like a trumpet. I saw them in Nashville around 86 or 97. They were excellent.
"You see these microphones....? We're doing a live recording tonnnnnnnnnight!" Scorpions live is phenomenal.
When I was a lad, we sang Big Tltty Nights! This video makes me nostalgic for the 80s like nothing else. It was a great time to be alive! We thought the good times would never end.
I’d like to thank my dad for always playing bands like the Scorpions, Metallica, Guns N’ Roses, etc. when we went on road trips. Really got me into this kind of music!
What kind of music? It's the ONLY music :D
All the youngins'. When you see these 80's vids, and see the smiles, huge concerts, bands running wild w/ laughter. I'm gonna' tell ya' . This sh*t was real, what a f'n amazing time it was (70's were cool too). Man, if we could've seen how the 21st was going to be. I don't think we would have believed it. What a f'n difference....I'd give it all to back, just for one day....RnF'NR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Take me back please, take me back. 1968 Texas baby here. Such sweet times back in the 1980's, hard but fun
Me too bro Me too!! 🤘
Life definitely was a beach back in those days. Miss it too bro.
@@funkster007 for real bro!
I wanna go backkkk😭😭😭
was there ever such an awesome time to be alive? thanks for the memories scorpions!!!!!
Saw these guys at the OC Fair in 2005 when I was 21. Amazing still. Loved the Scorps since I was a kid. They rock.
Orange county fairgrounds in Middletown NY or in Orange county CA?!
Seen them in 91 here in Kingston PA Holy Shit Ballzz they were incredible and Great White b4 them ya can't beat it ! Awesome
Why couldn't I have been born in the mid 70's so I can enjoy the 80's? :'(
Great days.... Long before I-phones, GPS and constant Social media.
You would have had the time of your life! I know I sure as hell did! God I miss those days!
you didn't miss much.
What a loser Darren! You have to have been a total stiff not to enjoy the 80'S. Great women and good drugs
Man, are you twisted. You actually think if you like Slayer or Metallica that you're going to hell? C'mon,ask any preacher, priest, etc. That's ridiculous. Plus, we were talking about the 80'S. That decade ended 37 years ago. I am sure Jesus loves music too. Look up dancing and celebrating in the Bible. If you were a good Christian, you wouldn't be judging other people.
Hey Kiddies of today. This video = A good time! You all should look at it to see how it is done. No drama, no shootings, no one being all 'Hard" to impress their friends. We just had a great time back then. It's called partying right.
Amen.
plus, they actually treat their ladies much better than today's singers/rappers/musicians. and they never take themselves seriously.
and even if you did get in a scuffle, it was over shortly and you usally were friends after.
not just yea!!! hell's yea!!!!!
Well said :-)
Scorpions, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest were all huge bands for me and my buddies in the 80’s. Good times! Every paper school book cover I had I drew these three bands logos on them.
No Van Halen?
That's how real rock stars did it. I seen the Scorpions in 1984 in Harrisburg Pa. It was freaking awesome.
Damn I would of went but I was only 6 years old
Seen them monsters of rock in Indianapolis , one of the hottest days of the year and they came through like the great musicians they are. Thank you SCORPIONS
god i was born to late man, this is real music man
I've watched this video a good chunk of times and I just noticed at the very end he says, "California, you give me money!" The bass player smiled after he had said that. Great stuff!
This band is out of sight. Tremendous song & performance. I'm 70 & still Rockin' out to the music in the '60s, '70s, & '80s.
"Big City Nights"
When the daylight is falling down into the night
And the sharks try to cut a big piece out of life
It feels alright to go out to catch an outrageous thrill
But it's more like spinning wheels of fortune
Which never stand still
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
When the sunlight is rising up in my eyes
And the long night has left me back at somebody's side
It feels alright for a long sweet minute like hours before
But it's more like looking out for something
I can't find anymore
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
Always yearning
There is no dream
That you can't make true, if you're looking for love
But there's no girl
Who's burning the ice away from my heart
Maybe tonight!
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
Always yearning
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
Always yearning

The best Rockin’ band i never got see,.. but, i can still press play any time i wanna on Worldwide Live!
bruschetta.... bruschetta nights..owwww!
I saw the Scorpions on their "Blackout" Tour. That was the album BEFORE this one. '82 Who opened for them? Iron Maiden "Number of the best tour" Mega who?? Never heard of em. Those two albums were released within a month of each other. Ticket had no seat number. Get there early, get a good seat. No seats on the floor. Standing. If ya wanted to go up to the stage, ya just walked up there.
We didn't know what a mosh pit was. We just headbanged. One thing gone is the sea of 80's hair, headbanging to a jam. When the lights would flash on the crowd it looked like a sea of waving hair in unison. Quite the spectacle. No cost to park. Ticket was $7.50. The show was phenomenal. You ain't heard loud.. Oh, we could smoke too. In the building. Lights off there were no smartphones. Bic lighters man. Even people that didn't smoke had the lighter.
Yeah I saw that tour too, first concert in my life, pretty much blew my mind. Girlschool opened the whole thing lol and pretty much got boo'd off the stage, silly girls what were they thinking.
You nailed that description bro! Been to hundreds of metal concerts starting in the late 70s all thru the 80s/90s & Im slowing down a little in 2020! Im 58 & yeah i lived thru all that great shit! The tunes the babes the big hair along with a little alcohol & substance abuse! Wish i had a freaking time machine!
Japanese fans are still as hardcore as they were in the 80s and 90's it seems, judging from these videos from way back then.
Some people recognize good get up off your butt music
Awesome band. I saw them 5 times. Those guitars, Klaus's vocals, the rhythm section. Just gets your blood pumping wwwwoooo. Love it to death.
Im 27. Dad raised me and my siblings on the Scorpions this bad rocks!!!!!
Over 11 million, yea can't be wrong ya know! This song always has and always WILL KICK ASS!
I was fortunate to spend the night with the Scorpions during this time after a show in Boulder, Colorado at the Hilton Harvest Hotel. Being a professional acoustic drummer for many moons myself it was truly an honor and a blessing to spend quality time with my favorite band.😊
So what were they like?
Песня...приятные,,воспоминанияотех....временах.
what a solo by Rudolf Schenker 🦂
Ah the 80’s. Loved them then. And love them now. Best era to be a teen and grow up in. This video encapsulates everything that made that decade so amazing: Music. Style. Attitude. Life.
😍😍😍
I have listened to scorpions and AC/DC my whole life and I'm a 14 year old girl two summers ago scorpions played here in San Antonio and I went it was fun
Here is a cool trick: 13-14+1=0 and that is the amount of fucks I give
Nice
Emerald Torres you good keep it up.well done.
Thanks
But I'm just a 14 year old freshman at holmes high school I suck at algebra I'm barley passing with a 70
Big city nights !!!!
I was stationed in Germany in 1984... seen them in concert ...they sang in German.... and it was still freaking awesome.. man do I miss the '80s
