Kick ass song. What is Klaus signalling at 1:53? Telling the roadie to get that chick backstage!

[MrFatboy361]

@megaphisto i used to roadie for judas priest back in 81 82 and a finger point meant that chick gets a backstage pass for fun after the show,did it 1000 plus times for k.k and glenn and then us roadies got the left overs.GOOD FUCKING TIMES MAN!!!!!!!!!

[megaphisto]

@MrFatboy361 Ha ha, knew it. Hope you didn't have to pick out dudes for Rob.

Rock on, brother. You must ride a Hog?

[MrFatboy361]

@megaphisto no didn't have to do that for rob,he had his own little group.if u know what i mean !!!!

[megaphisto]

@MrFatboy361 Yep, not for me to judge however. JP kicked ass back in the day. Eat Me Alive!

[akaaccount]

Klaus has some pipes

[JM13121]

BLACKOUT!....Love the Scorpions!!!!!

[LEGIONARIO1970]

It's fun to see how most of the teenagers today like their UGLY "music" made by their plastic and flat bands (they all sound the same)

Back in the 60's, 70's and 80's music was very good and bands had a lot of power and personality!!!

[tednugentlives]

Very Few bands sound Spectacular live. Scorpions is one of them. Texas Jamm '85, '88 and sounded better live than on record. World Wide Live is a fantastic sounding LP. Thanks for posting..

[superficker2000]

yeaahh awesome SCORPIONS

[terrybinh1]

Question? What is your fav. scorpions album?

[AXEFLYERFV]

@terrybinh1 That is a very hard question to answer, there are always great songs on every album,!

good question but hard for me to just name one album!

[lovemaker1972]

@terrybinh1 LOVEDRIVE but BLACKOUT was great too.with ULI J Roth i must say they did many great albums but more hippie experimental progressive rock stuff.what is great too.buti like the rock sound from the scorpions when they released lovedrive,animal magnetism,blackout and love at first sting.

[guitarcomet5]

@terrybinh1 ....LOVEDRIVE ! 

[CowboyBJ87]

@terrybinh1 "Face The Heat"

[alkimst13]

fly to the rainbow was my first scorps album back in 74 or 75, so I've listened to them from Michael, to Uli, to Mathias. Michael Is one of my favorite guitar players of ALL TIME, but when Mathias teamed up with Scorpions it seemed to be what put them over the top. That's just my opinion.

[PureSinX]

shame that, he cnt sing it like that nowdays :( Epic song...

[SecretLoserBG]

1:30 rudy and matthias go wild

[smithbonz]

One of the best hard rock songs ever. The relentless guitar riff during the chorus is one of the most powerful guitar riffs ever. Jabs' lead solo takes off like an MX missile. Listen to the studio version cranked with a good set of headphones .It was great when popular music was based on guitar riffs. That's why Cream, Hendrix, Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Sabbath, Aerosmith, AC/DC, the Scorps, Priest,

Whitesnake and others of that ilk, blow away most of the crap that came later.

[JoeAnthony1963]

@ TheDragonAgeGuy ..try listening to the guitar ''riff'' halfway through the tune

[ARxXXxAR]

Matthias is so underrated!

[elvengadorcerocho]

klaus' voice hasn't changed at all...

[metalbassjensen808]

i know why this song got alot of attention...ITS BADASS!

[hurrican417]

Rock never Dies!!!

[SuperTonystreet]

Who ever didnt like this song , they didnt have a clue of whats a real rock and roll !! Scorpions you ROCK !!! L&R \m/

[TheDragonAgeGuy]

Not to be judgemental (I love Scorpion, and i love both metal and rock.) but I can't see why this song gets so much attention

[AXEFLYERFV]

@TheDragonAgeGuy Could it be because you weren't even born when Scorpions was making the transition from 70's/'80's Music style with Uli Roth /Michael Schenker /Jabs!

this album was huge back then, I know, I was there !

thnx for your input!

[soulous1]

@TheDragonAgeGuy You have to realize that scorpions were their own music .... Nobody and I mean Nobody even came close to what they were doing at the time ... I mean fricki'n nobody even came close..... In the year this came out this was the ultimate kick-ass rock-metal of all the bands that were trying to be these guys!!1

[TheDragonAgeGuy]

@soulous1 There we're plenty of bands that crossed Scorpions fame, such as Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Helloween(well kind of), Deep Purple ect.

[soulous1]

@TheDragonAgeGuy The reason is simple... in a morass of heavy metal at the time there was SCORPIONS!!

[TheDragonAgeGuy]

@soulous1 I said I liked Scorpions

[TheSpartiatissa]

@TheDragonAgeGuy BECAUSE KLAUS MEINE SINGS IT!

[TheDragonAgeGuy]

@TheSpartiatissa He sings 'Action' aswell, but that song hasnt got half the fame that this song has.

[TheSpartiatissa]

@TheDragonAgeGuy I know .. I am a big fan!

[msctommass]

@TheDragonAgeGuy If you have an opportunity, listen to the studio version of Blackout. The mix on this video is not balanced as you can barely hear the guitars. The studio version is fantastic though. Even more so, if you can hear the remastered version (I think it's a 20 bit digital remaster), it is extraordinary.

[TheDragonAgeGuy]

@msctommass Just listened to the studio version and it is better actually, i still don't really like the chorus. But the guitars in the chorus are really creative :) thanks

[MusicmanfromGA]

@TheDragonAgeGuy I figured it out...it's because of the guitar riff just after they sing the words "Black Out".

It's a great riff!

[PghAquaman]

@TheDragonAgeGuy Because it kicks ass.

[Decapitater]

@TheDragonAgeGuy The lyrics simply do it for me, just like in Foreigner's Double Vision. Somehow it gives me goosebumps every single time I listen to it... Just saw them on stage performing this song a few days ago in Cluj-Napoca, Romania on the opening party of Universitate FC's new stadium and I have to say, they still ROCK!

[dudeblues10]

Very cool video, thanks for posting. What the hell was that neck pick up in Jabs' guitar. Looked like a smaller split bass pick up???

[ColtraneTaylor]

Great song. Klaus' hair just isn't the most inspiring though. Bit painful to watch ...

[superrickyflores]

awsome song ! i love it! they really know how to jam in this one!

[JM24168]

Damn me for being born in 92. I would have loved to see this band live!

[MrTURBOJOHN]

This is the best scorpions music, with the best solo and best vocals

Its freakin awesome

[clbaumer]

Come on man! I just fucking hate it videos dont show the guitar soloing. Why would I not want to see Jabs jammin??

[tomitstube]

they sound awesome here.

[roggerdiegokottak]

Matthias put a black tape on your guitar! this is not a pickup! hahaha

[GenerationXT]

@koldusopera Whats horrible is that cheesy ass techno cover of a Beetles tune you uploaded that I found while checking your profile.

[arthurkitchen]

Great vidro! I remember seeing The Scorpions, Iron Maiden, and Girls School in Indy in the 80's!! What a killer band!!!

[keaton121]

Glad I got to see them on their farewell tour.

[VideoNowRecords]

"I saw these guys in 1984 and they totally rocked man "

[Aiyoros]

wow, 26 years from this song, and Klaus sings this song like the first time, his vocals are awesome!

[motrock2]

This is how you jam on the guitar! Wicked live performance of a great song! Thanks for posting all of this great stuff!

[mcbtex]

LOVE THE DANCE @ 2:40 !!!!

[bergerfry]

Fucking awsome. 

[JiveAss666]

nice hair fuckin kraut 

[owl1970]

@JiveAss666 I take it you prefer "Fall Out Boy" ?

[hojorocks3]

Do people watch videos they hate just so they can put them down? I personally look for videos I want to see. It just seems to make more sense. Great vid, awesome song.

[AXEFLYERFV]

@hojorocks3 Good point,unfortunatelly Youtube overflows with Trolls,Haters,etc & they are desperate for attention!!

I get a few here & there so is not that bad,at least on this page!

on other pages of mine "They are Alive"..lol!!

Thnx for tuning in man!

[88mpny]

@hojorocks3 YEAH no doubt..... I'm also sick of people talking crap about looks and hair who gives two craps about that stuff. its about the music first and foremost ALWAYS HAS BEEN ALWAYS WILL BE....

[TWarchildT]

one of the best songs from the matthias era...but the songs with uli are better...monster of a band

[chimus123]

los amo putos jajajjaa

[koldusopera]

[AXEFLYERFV]

[djmm1397]

@AXEFLYERFV you messed up the beginning

[AXEFLYERFV]

@djmm1397 what are you talking about?

[nonotc]

@AXEFLYERFV tu as raisons !! qu'importe les idiots qui n'aiment pas tel ou tel genre de musique, ces gens là n'on pas a mettre de critiques sur de vidéos, cordialement et amitié...

[cartoonking3]

[minuto02]

:-))))))))))))))))))  buena

[wakomura7]

Tasty solo....

[diaonerocks]

Dude! Saw them at Conocti Harbor in California two falls ago! Klaus totally rocks the leather pants.

How do I translate the above? Anyone know?

Scorps sound just as good! People laughed though when I yelled to the bus driver who picked us up from the parking lot..."Driver, take us to school! Rock School!" That was serious stuff man.

[chicasemi]

de poca esta es mi rola fovorita de the escorpions.

[deslandes430]

Holy shit, Klaus was the devil! sooooo ugly LOL

[ronaldsteff]

Scorps in their prime....nuff said!!!

[SavaFun]

1:36 lol Rudolf headbanging!

xD

[CrzyClst]

The Crazy World Tour was awesome too

[srvrip1]

Matthius plays some of the best shit imaginable behind the vocals (and solo)-vicious stuff. Definitely in the top 10 of rock guitarists.

[brunobb1]

[thingplate]

[AXEFLYERFV]

I didn't bother to reply for a couple of reasons that are not worth to even point out,it sure was a really bad useless comparison & comment!!!

[FLy1n6V]

[ZODIAKFV]
