Has anyone ever noticed that when Uli went down at 1:50 he scuffed his shoe and you can see him look down at his shoe to see the damage at 2:01 but plays it off when he is really like WTF.
malmsteen gets all the recognition and respect for neo classical shredding i think ppl need to realize uli jon roth pretty much pioneered that style of playing
@louielovett Its because he never sold out to the devil, thats why i think he didn't come to the US with the Scorps. The Scorps are the best band I have ever heard then UFO band is close behind.
tell me i am not expert for electrict guitars........this guy with white electric guitar.....he is moving silver stick up and down....why? :/ tell me pls
@Shomi701 this silver stick is called tremoulo and have the ability of putting the falseto in the sound of the string...or turn the sound of the string lower or higher with a sleezy sound :))))
Attention fans of scorpios: Klaus Meine ZEIT MAGAZINE spoke to the band will make the last tour before stopping. Let's see more videos of them to keep the legend alive
This song makes me so nostalgic. It reminds me of being in high school and putting up photos of 70's and 80's bands on my walls. I'd almost hope that they'd jump out of the pictures and say to me, "I'll bring you to the show, little girl. Come to see me today," just like in the song. It's just a magical feeling, and this song brings it all back.
If you have been around [45 years and can't remember how many times around the world you music will change, if you don't you will be a one hit wonder] you have to change with the time, like all their music and any music if it's good, but this song is one of thow song you just can't seem to get out of your head. And to all you people out their, how many bands had the brains to keep their mouth shut and hang with the same lead singer for atleast 40 years and put out music out almost every year ?
there is and always will be two legions of scorpions fans. one legion involves lonesome crow up to tokyo tapes. the other involves the newer music with matthias jabs. who cares? both sides are talented in their own ways. sure, the beginning with uli jon roth was amazing, then after he left, they were up shit's creek. they re-enlisted rudolf's brother, michael, who was drunk a lot during the tour for Lovedrive. So, they enlisted Matthias, and history for the Scorpions goes on from there.
@EmbryonicSyringes actually there are 3 eras... the first that you are talking about , the second that is from Lovedrive till World wide live and the third from savage amusement till now... I go with the 1,2 eras...
Man, the guys look very 70s here. For my money, the definitive version of this song is the one from their "Tokyo Tapes" live album - never sounded better. The guitars are just insane.
Woo, remember my brother coming out of the Air Force, playing this tape for me , I was about 14. Love them ever since. Man were we stoned that day lol. Times change, Scorpions rock my world today too.
This was one of the ONLY bands that could swap personnel and NEVER lose their edge and professionalism!..seen'em 3 times growing up,including the '83 US Fest,which they owned!
trying to pick favorite between michael and uli is like trying to pick which of your kids is your favorite !!! they're so diferent style anyway so why choose !!!
We all like Uli... Matthias is a good player, too, but he doesn't have the artistic sensibility of U.J.R., so those two are completely different players...
I can't say anything else but I DO LOVE THIS SONG MAN! ... i'm gonna see them play in Santiago the next month and this would be one of all the lots of songs i wanna hear... anyways, i love this song either
omg....the early scorps.......Ulrich Roth on the guitar....Herman Rarebell on the drums and Francis Buccholz on the bass...wait....that doesn't look like Herman?!
