  • Winds of Change are blowing and they are not good.

    When was it ever like it currently is?

    Soon we will see history repeat itself and it will not be good.

  • das war ne schöne Zeit damals. Gott sei dank kam die Wende.

  • As someone who was there when 'The Wall' fell, I can tell you that no matter how many times I hear this song, it'll always bring me back with a tear in my eye. This song will forever be evergreen to me.

  • It's an amazing song.

  • what is this song about again???

  • this song is about the wall of berlin and how it was destroyed

  • @ JOSUE14400 it's all very nice what you're talking about, but when you have to spend an eternity in perfectness, won't it be boring? it's overcoming the obstacles in life that make us happy, the bigger the obstacle, the happier you are when you've overcome it. i think heaven will be quite boring, if there is a heaven...

  • perfect <3

  • What happened to the freedom we were promised?

    что произошло на свободу было обещано нам

    Was geschah mit der Freiheit, die wir versprochen

  • There is no freedom under the guise of American liberation. Even America's freedoms are gone. Welcome to the new world order of a one world government blessed by the muslim named Obama. All you people were fooled. I saw it coming years ago, which is why I stayed out of the U S military. It is over. Die to live.

  • what the fuck are you talking about? i'm quite shure there is more freedom under 'muslim' obama than with bush as president... what does it matter if someone's muslim? there is no freedom under the guise of American liberation when people like you become president...

  • ahhahaha nicee nice best world

  • great song great band

  • I know the lyrics since I was about 7 :)

  • fuck u

  • Legendary Evergreen Song :)

  • evergreen in west st paul,mn??? i used to work there too..in the summer we make the cherries for the winter wreaths...

  • Much respect for all who have lived in a former communist country, as an American with family in Estonia and Slovakia, I do not take what freedom/s we have left here for granted.

    Peace to everyone that reads this.....

  • This song is about toppling down the communist governments and a change for the better in Europe.

    "Distant memories

    Are buried in the past forever

    I fallow the Moskva

    Down to Gorky Park

    Listening to the wind of change "

    This song is completely anit-communist you dumbass american.

  • Hey i understand clearly i am not no dumbass american, cant say there is many dumbasses every where. Yes a change in Europe but also the entire world. We do need peace which i dont believe it would ever occur. That is live, American Government sucks, I have a saying you go in with empty pockets and leave your term with full pockets. Its sucks to say that being an American Born,. But its the plain truth. Go Scorpions songs bring me back with sweet memories.

  • Are you illiterate?

  • i think so many things about this video all the time.

  • love this song and the meaning as an australian i cannot imagine being seperated from my loved ones by a 20 foot wall and living in fear in a brutal evil police state like east germany

  • Please allow embedding!

  • "wind change" began in Poland... no more communism in Europe

  • Avevo 13 anni quando è caduto il muro... non scorderò mai quella serata!

  • peace brothers i havent bord when that happened but every time i see that i smile and i know that every goal can be reached =)

    long live germany

  • i was 3 years old!!! and i remember vaguely watching the fall of the berlin wall on tv

  • This should be on the front page every day.

  • PEACE !

    PAZ !

  • I was 8 years old and I still remember, but a that time I could not understand what was happening. Why must people be separated.

  • I was 15 when this happened, it is still raw emotions I feel when I view this.

  • ... to think it has been 20 years since East Germans have had a taste of freedom and democracy. Germans, was reunification worth it ? Only you will know, outsiders can only guess - and even speculate.

  • Realmente impresionante!! SCORPIONS FOREVER!!

  • FABULOUS SONG, FABULOUS VIDEO, FABULOUS SCORPIONS. the biggest word in the world???  LOVE

  • Actually the biggest word, in english, is supposed to be FLOCCI­NAUCINI­HILIPIL­IFICATI­ON.

    Good song though.

  • lol what does that even mean? XD

  • It is defined as the act of estimating something as worthless.

    Longest non-techincal word and even in dictionaries.

    Longest technical word is the chemical name of titin, the largest known protein and it consists of 18.819 letters.

    Science!

  • ...Damn.. lol

  • I Wonder Why Did Obama Get The Nobel If He Hasn`t Done Anything Big Yet. Un Like Ahtisaari Who Worked For Years.

  • WHO ISS ATHISAARI????

  • WIND OF CZELENDŹ !!

  • awsome!

  • Just Awsome!

  • Короче все мы братья и сестры =)

  • lol at nevermind the buzzcocks

  • i saw it too lol :L

  • that was the most amusing part of that mediocre episode imo =P

  • i love scorpions and i am only 11

  • I was only 11 when this song came out;)

  • I was 9 ;) Wow, 20 years on and the echoes of an era are still there, in this brilliant song that marked the end of the Cold War and the fall of the Berlin Wall... 20 years ago, this day

  • Thank you Scorpions, yyou`re the best for me!

  • scorpions i love you...

  • I love life and not scared of death ...But I Do Not Wanna DIe Tonight ! peace

  • A beautiful song.

  • Brilliant! Superb lyrics with a message and a great track.

  • Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!

  • ¿ que haciais en esos momentos? yo recuerdo que era una peke ( que años antes habia nacido en la antigua rfa,bochum) y ver con mi padre las noticias y verlo emocionarse.Gran cancion y letra,no puede evitarse nostalgia,buenos recuerdos,y lo que significo para nuestra Europa,genial

  • j adoreeeeeeee!!!

  • I agree too, but I think that the most important is to act to make a better world.

    And I think the world now is better than 5 years ago (remember Bush...).

  • This wonderful song reflects the genuine wave of hope and optimism that greeted the fall of communism in Europe. It still stirs my soul, but yes, I am saddened at how liittle has really changed, how old evils remain, and how new evils have emerged. Wind of

    Change is a brilliant snapshot of a brief time when anything seemed possible. We now return to our regularly scheduled cynicism and bitching...

  • Very well said; solidifies my previous observations.

  • You're comment has describe prefectly the situation in this modern world after the fall of Berlin Wall and the made famous of this song. I just hope that some how we the human will be able to reach to that dream describe in this song. A peaceful place to live and to grow old.

  • someone who afraid the system of social equality in my opinion can be

    characterized fascist..because communism teaches that everyone must be payed on the basis of his needs not on his ability...also speaks for no aythorities, that the masses have the power to control everything...that's why the "big heads" talk about shit for communism beacause they want people to adopt this opinion so they can keep them calm by stop thinking of social fair system&keep buying the products they want to sell...

  • very true

  • mate you can be my social affair minister for britain when i overthrow the government

  • you mean you want to kick the queen out her palace?

  • I don't understand. Why do I only buy products that I want, reguardless of what the big heads want to sell. Besides. Masses control everyone. What about special circumstances. Shouldn't people decide their own fate, not the masses? Why stop at social equality? Reach for the stars!

  • Who is a true communist?

    He who faithfully reads the works of Marx and Lenin.

    Who is a true anti-communist?

    He who actually understands them!

    no further comments...

  • Love the song :>

    As for the kids discussing shit on this website: Listen to the music and enjoy it. Don't have anything nice to say? Don't say anything...cranky fucking people.

    Thanx for the vid

  • The song is about much more than that if you allow it to be :) rock on Shenker and band. A great song of helping to make the world a better place.

  • Scorpions best in rock!

  • Very very very good and emotional song, this is the first rock I liked really good ... bravo !!! scoripoons

  • This song is HAUNTING TRUE for our times!

  • My favorite rock band of all time. Period.

  • This is the first Rock Song that I've Love!!!

    Thank you Scorpions..

  • essa é a musica !!!!!!

  • This is one of the most moving song + video ever. I would feel fine crying for something like this........

  • the very best ever!!!!!!!!!!

  • it was ment to be a eply to vbj25b

  • Americans have no right to talk about freedom!! Their nation is built on occupied land. They are dictating who has the right to have nukes and they are still the only nation to have used them. They dropped more bombs in vietnam than all bombs used in WWII. And now they deploy troops all over the world to protect their economical interests. "Do as we tell you or else.." shut the f*** up and give the "indians" back their land!!

  • Scorpions are a Germany Band, why you are speaking about the Amercans, friend?

  • MonDieu72, I'm surprised that a Swede would feel that way. Re the USA, by now we all have Native American blood in our veins. How can we give ourselves back our own land? One thing we have done regarding Natives who didn't choose to intermarry is allow them exclusive rights to build casinos. It lets them rip off the non-Natives who come lose all their money. I think it's a revenge thing.

    I see you are very passionate about nuclear weapons. How do you feel about biological weapons?

  • this song makes me soul cry

  • For those that don't understand the idea is unification by people that care no matter where you are in the world the internet has brought the freedom we know in America to every country in this world and their learning from it. The idea of freedom is now blowing free like the wind no matter where you are. The Scorps get it do you?

  • This may come as a shock to you but most 1st World Countries are free. The idea of freedom is not an American concept.

  • music is awesome, but still song didnt change anything.

    And you, IMO, are 15 year old since you use such words

    Grats

  • to malang I grew up near the end of the Cold War. I was 10 when the Wall tumbled. I feel as much as I respect Obama He's leading the world down the same path as the one we've all traveled by giving in to the russians and dismantling the Missile shield.

  • DIOS KE HERMOSA CANCNION

  • my favorite scorpions song by far!

  • I like this song

  • This music is great, but all events that happened did not make people to learn. People still repeat same mistakes... World is not better...

  • one of the best!!!!!! take me to the magic of the moment <3

  • I said it before and I will say it again; America wanted that wall to come down only to eventually subject its own people to the same injustices that the Soviet pact nations were inflicting on their people. America does not want any competition. I see the winds of change coming to America, and it is not the freedom that people once fought for.

  • You are obviously a product of our government education system - read a book ever so often (one without lots of pictures) - You Voted for Obama right?

  • Actually no, lol. I did NOT vote for Obama, and that was part of my point. He stands for the communist way of thinking; which is why I said that I have seen the winds of change in America, and they are not good. I am actually self educated, and way far above what the public education system could ever give me. That is also my point. The public education system is communist. The whole thing I meant was that while they were gaining freedoms, we are losing ours.

  • freedom when it fall to into the hand such as yours it will flourish, 'cause i see that you are wise and educate yourself of how to use that 'freedom'. but feedom is also dangerous 'animal' when it fall into the hand of unwise person, me perhaps, because human/people want is endless, without boundry. so some of us, people, get together and form a collective thingking and create man made boundry, which is law. law govern people's act so that everyone freedom will not over power each other

  • well said

  • yes!

  • Awesome song!

  • awesome.... no other words to discribe it......

  • doesnt seem like much change has happened since this song came out, still the same problems but i love this song.

  • the song that changed the world. awesome..

  • this song changed nothing - we still got wars, hate, poor people, lonely hearts, crying children...

  • anything can change it. it's impossible. and that song didn't want to change anything. it's a tribute. some kind of tribute. it's beautiful and it have to show us what can we do. and we can integrate to each other.

  • Genial......son vientos de cambio que precisamos hoy en dia .....

  • =YES SCORPS ROCK= ! ! !

  • lmao

  • haha

  • slow blues guitar donottawaguitar

  • every generation witness a war i am afraid that we will face the third global war that will put an end to most of us or destroy us completly.

  • beast rock song eveer

  • Communism... never did any good, never will

  • Richtig..

  • Comment removed

  • communism rose as an answer forautocratic system of government that has gone bad. the system preffer the wealthy and ruling society most than the commoner. the first generation eagerly accepted and embraced the ideology, but overtime, abuse, coruption and manipulation conducted by the very people ' incharge', communism gone bad, very bad, worst than autocratic system. so communism hasn't live up to its promise, and yes it's not good.

  • 1:56 ella no es elena ceaucescu; ella fue ejecutada junto a su esposo. Estos soldados tienen rasgos físicos orientales.

  • no sé inglés pero la primera vez que escuché esta canción me hizo llorar, ¡es tan hermosa!, ahora veo imágenes y es más profunda aún. Amo a Scorpions.

  • cosa dire....

    stupenda e basta!!!!!!!!!!!

  • scropions version of man in e mirror!!!

  • i never thought i will ever see romanian flag in one of the scorpions video. That's the moment when communism died!

    Amazing song and video that will live forever.

  • Communism hasn't died yet. It's just downsized. Put in a more managable proportion. One day it will rise again if many of us hasn't done a good job at explaining why communism was not a good philosophy, at any level of human interaction, be at private or government, specially government, to the younger generation. Hope you, all of you, the next generation won't experience what many of your parents, uncle, etc, experience.

  • Best song ever

  • This is one of my favorite videos of my life! It reminds me so much things!

    Thank you and long live Scorpions!

  • Does anyone know what is going in the video at 1:56? It looks like an execution, but I have never seen the video.

  • Hi! I think it's Elena Ceausescu's execution, I'm not sure, but I have seen that video when was the ten years anniversary of the so called revolution here in Romania.

  • the more things change the more they stay the same

  • dont u all see its about a change in communism / thats my interpretation

  • People are not expendable. Government is

  • Leaders draw the line... "tear down this wall"... sopported by the strong and fair, and then everybody else jumps up and claims credit...

  • Comment removed

  • Oh lord, let me keep my big mouth shut until I know what I am talking about and don't let me look like the pseudo intelectual I am posing myself.

  • This song was made of think about everything...

    People must be generous if not will be in the end of all.

  • ur rite

  • We are at the end. We change, but we just change the past into the present, with music movies etc... Barely anthing is new these days. Just recyled things, just for quick money, ring tones stupid dance songs, more dancing, more puff daddy influenced remixes of bull. Its sad. Its like we are devolving.

  • I'm sorry you feel that way then...there's so much changes in this world. You're not that wrong though, but still, it's unfortunate to see things that way in my opinion.

  • I frakkin' love this song--still beautiful to this day.

  • I wouldn't go quite that far, Trackerman. But it is true that government in general finds their job much easier if people have less liberty. That has always been the goal of governemt: reduce liberties as much as they can, as long as the people don't riot. America had a good thing going at its creation, but it has changed. Now, we must attack vigorously any attempt to reduce our freedoms by todays politicians. Don't be paranoid, but don't be gullible, either.

    Great song, by the way.

  • How to do it in these day on age , how not to be paranoid yet also not be gullible, because trust, believing of someone honesty and integrity of their 'believe', is the back bone for this ' not to be paranoid and not be gullible' idea. because trust among human has been none existence. so what to do.. where, or who to trust nowadays.. everyone is an expert of something... have you seen those 'expert on CNN.. talk about ' intelegence'..

  • the person who thought of the whistle is a genius!

  • It is funny that when the U S was telling the Soviets to give people more freedom the U S was actually trying to take those same freedoms away from its own citizens. The U S does not want any competition when it comes to suppressing and oppressing people. May be why the U S helped to bring down the Nazis; the U S did not want any competition. As an American I see the winds; and they are not good. America is the beginning of the end.

  • I hope you were drunk when you wrote that, Wtrackerman.

  • ♥

  • the best song ever!!

  • oh ya thanks for the post!

  • i love this song so much because every place he talks about i have been to gorky park, the river moskva. I was born in russia and moved to america when i was 7. My dad was american guy who had a buiness trip to germany but decided to visit russia where he met and married my mom, so if the berlin wall hadn't been torn down he would have never been able to go and met my mom and i wouldn't be here!

    I love this song listened to it every day when i was a kid!

  • WOW... My childhood song.

    This song is the reason I whistle so well today.

    Thanks for posting.

  • i love this song......spanish version too

  • The song express the feeling at the time. The fall of Berlin Wall was the height of and the end of Cold War. Now, the change has been in progress for over a decade, what have we done so far? Any progress.....

  • The wall coming down after so many years was so moving at the time. And that lone student protester in China, that stopped the tanks from going into tiananmen square by standing in front of them. Will never forget that.

  • the wind died down a long time ago unfortunately.

  • So true em0drumz...but by chance if someone is able to revive 'the wind', will it be a breeze, where feeling calm and secure and satisfy are produced or will it be a typhoon wind where chaos and disaster followed. And who, would brave to do it.

  • right now I don't think anybody is. I just finished reading Fahrenheit 451 for the second time and now that I get it, I realize that society today is slowly moving towards that future. Sometimes I feel like we've already come to that future except the first ammendment still exists

  • Love it... My father used to play it in the car when I was a child...

  • SPECTACULAR!!!!

  • One of my favorite songs. Thanks for the post.

  • I learned this on the guitar the other day. This is my all time favorite song by the Scorpions

  • BEST song ever from SCORPIONS!!

  • adoro...

  • what a song :)
