You can never go wrong with Scorpions, one of the best band ever. They have so many amazing songs!

His voice just pierces straight into your soul!

They are a German band- Klaus Meine the lead singer has a great voice and English is not even his first language....

This is one of their best but their rabbit hole is immense. Also try by them: Send Me An Angel, Big City Nights, No One Like You, Walking On The Edge.

Check out "Rock You Like a Hurricane" and "Send Me And Angle" also. For example.

Properly the best rock band to ever come out of Germany 🇩🇪 they could rock hard or make emotional Ballard's like this and Holliday or winds of change. Klaus had great vocal talent.🤟👍

Have you heard of Mono Inc? A different sound than the Scorpions, but pretty good. I discovered them a couple of years ago.

Scorpions are a timeless group...👊👍😎

Scorpions' hard rock songs to check out - 'No one like you' ... 'Rock you like a hurricane' ... 'Rhythm of love' ... 'No pain no gain' ... "I'm leaving you" ... 'Arizona' ... 'Bad boys running wild' ... 'Tease me please me' ... 'Lovedrive' ... 'The Zoo' ... 'Make it real' ... 'Rock believer' 🔥🔥🤘🤘 and Scorpions ballads - 'Wind of change' ... 'Holiday' ... 'Believe in love' ... 'In trance' ... 'Send me an angel' ... 'Woman' ... 'When the smoke is going down' ... 'Humanity'... 'When you came into my life' 🔥🔥

Scorpions are 1 of the longest running rock bands, an original from W. Germany... Thanks for doing the unedited version of 'Still loving you' (the music video is edited) and Matthias Jabs' lead guitar solos really get your attention on this track! 🤘🤘🔥🔥Scorpions music had both the hard rock songs for guys, and soulful ballads that appealed to women. When English rock became popular in W. Germany in the 60's, guitarist Rudolf Schenker formed his own rock n' roll band, the Scorpions in 1965 ... he met another aspiring singer named Klaus Meine and they became friends in separate bands. Rudolf's kid brother Michael Schenker showed promise as a lead guitar player and joined Klaus' band... In the early 70's, Klaus Meine joined the Scorpions as the vocalist and Michael Schenker as the lead guitarist. They felt singing in English (despite not being their native language) would give them more appeal. They got a chance to record w/ a German label and recorded a 'space rock' debut album 'Lonesome crow' in 1972, inspired by Jimi Hendrix... In 1973, Michael Schenker left to join the U.K. hard rock band U.F.O. and made a name for himself. Despite the band's split, Klaus Meine & Rudolf Schenker reformed the Scorpions in 1974 w/ lead guitarist Ulrich Roth (now Uli Jon Roth) and recorded a string of rock albums in the 70's, but could only tour Europe. By 1978, Roth announced he was leaving the Scorpions after the band's first tour of Japan... Michael Schenker briefly returned in 1979, only to quit once again... Matthias Jabs (lead guitar) officially joined the Scorpions in '79 w/ Klaus Meine (vocals), Rudolf Schenker (guitar), Francis Buccholz (bass) & Herman Rarebell (drums) and finally scored a gold-selling record in the US w/ 'Lovedrive' that year. Scorpions secured a platinum record (1 million copies sold) in the US in 1980 - 'Animal magnetism' ...but in 1981, the band was forced to take a year off after Klaus was diagnosed w/ vocal polyps. After surgery and months of recovery, Klaus returned to the studio in 1982 and delivered the 'Blackout' album that was another platinum hit... 'Love at first sting' was their biggest album in 1984, selling 3 million copies in the US... Scorpions played everywhere they could around the world - N. and S. America, Europe, Asia and Australia. In 1988, Scorpions were touring for the album 'Savage Amusement' when they got the chance to play Russia, a country that had once banned rock music... The experience touring the USSR in the late 80's inspired the next album 'Crazy world' in 1990, which sold 2 million copies in the US and scored a massive hit ballad 'Wind of change'. However, the 90's decade was not welcoming Scorpions' brand of hard rock... Francis Buccholz (bass) quit in '92, Herman Rarebell (drums) left in '95... Klaus, Rudolf & Matthias kept the Scorpions recording & touring into the 90's, despite their declining popularity. After 2000, the band had American drummer James Kottak and Polish bassist Pawel Maciwoda... the Scorpions surged in popularity once again after 2007 and wanted to end their career after the album 'Sting of the tail' in 2010, but the band had renewed popularity and opted to carry on after 2014... In 2016, Mikkey Dee (drums) replaced James Kottak and the band has a new album 'Rock believer' due out in 2022.

And Rock Believer is another great album by a great band.

The ultimate power ballad! The last 2 minutes of this song are perfect, between Klaus' great vocals and the crying wailing guitar!

Great Power Ballad. Have an older friend in his 50s who d play this and Rock you like a Hurricane all the time. I knew of them and I have a live video of them doing this song from a few years ago but never really got into them till my friend started really playing their music for me. Much ❤ and appreciation for always giving us great music keep on keeping on .

This is one of the best ballads of this time! Love it! ✌❤

A lot of reactors make the mistake of choosing the video version of a song, and most often than not, the song gets edited to death. I'm glad you picked the original version w/ lyrics (which in most cases, is the best way to go).

Scorpions is great talent and songwriting across the board. One of the great vocalist and soloists you'll find and you can listen to countless of their songs. They have great ballads and then songs that will rock the hair off your arms and everything in-between. If you really want to crush it there is No One Like You, Blackout, The Zoo is a great tweener, or Rock You Like a Hurricane is fun many many others. They recorded their amazing live album Tokyo Tapes in Japan very early in their career because they got busted trying to bring weed into the US and were banned from playing here for a few years. I saw them in Seattle up front on the wall many years ago and it was 2.5 hours of pure energy. I've never been so exhausted. This song stood out just right in my face.

One the best power ballards to ever come out of the 8o's....still gives me the chills .....definitely check out No One Like You!!! ❤️

it's the bst power ballad to come out of any decade, it's the best of all time. period.

This is my all-time favorite power ballad. I think they just came out with a new song. Here's a story. Back in the olden times, I went to see "Champions on Ice" at Boston Garden. This Russian pairs team I had seen on TV in the recent Olympics, and couldn't stand, was about to skate. And then Gordeeva and Grinkov skated to this. After that I liked them a lot. RIP Sergei Grinkov 🙏🏼

THANK YOU!!!!!❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥 DUDE, I've been a fan of these guys since '78. Seen them in concert 8 times, 3 in the States and 5 in Germany. They ARE The Rock Gods of Germany! Keep reacting to them. They got ALL Kinds of FIRE!😎🤘☕🇺🇲💯

Their absolute best! His vocals give me chills. They have so many wonderful songs. Classic 80’s. ❤️

Classic ballad from the Scorpions. For a banger by them, heck out Rock You Like A Hurricane. Guaranteed to get your head nodding…

They have so many great songs...."Wind of Change" official video!!!! Beautiful song beautiful vibes!

I'm proud to say I've listened to this song since its infancy. It's always been one of my favorites, and is likely the best power ballad ever recorded. We Generation X'ers were so spoiled with great music. And The Scorpions were a hit machine!

This is a hot summer nights driving in the car song. Start it when you leave the house kinda quiet getting out of the neighborhood with the windows up and the A/C on. By the end you are on the highway doing 80 with the windows down and the stereo full blast.

A real classic! There's many good power ballads from the 80s! One of my favorites you should check out is The Price by Twisted Sister

One of the most influential and powerful hard rock/metal bands ever. Gorgeous power ballads and hard driving songs. Huge rabbit hole, more like a cave.

Great reaction to a fantastic power ballad and one of the most legendary, emotive songs ever written. Scorpions is one of the very few bands for whom every song released is objectively good. From their foundation in '65 through the 70's, 80's, and 90's, and now again with their new album coming out this Friday in three days, they reign supreme. To suggest a single song would be to exclude so many others, but Winds of Change, No One Like You, Always Somewhere, and Send Me an Angel are some excellent choices, as well as anything from their new album like Shining Of Your Soul, which could very well have been from the late '70's.

Welcome to the world of power ballads. The Scorpions rule in this area. Try Loving you Sunday Morning and Vacation

At 73, singer, Klaus Meine still has his vocal skills

THIS IS A BANGER

I am 53 years old and the Scorpions and Judas Priests were my top favorite bands when I was 15 and 1983. MTV when they still played music was a major influences on me for appreciating rock and heavy metal.

One of the most underrated bands nowadays, but man were they huge. I’m leaving you, no one like you, rock you like a hurricane, blackout, the zoo, animal magnetism. Unless you knew it, you’d never guess these guys are all German

They a top 5 band for me. Check out the song the Zoo. Its about their first time touring in NYC.

Nice reaction I was introduced to Heavy Metal by this group and this group is my Fav group in this genre. Can you'll React to Scorpions "The Zoo" & "There's No One Like You" Ty both.

This was a date song/tail puller back in the day no cap!

One of the 80's best bands.

It's crazy that he's singing so damn good in English, which is his 2nd language

You should also react to Send me an angel, Wind of change, and Rock you like a Hurricane.

PLEASE do Wind of Change by Scorpions

More hit songs from them, Rock You Like A Hurricane, The Zoo, Wind Of Change, Big City Nights, No One Like You, Bad Boys Running Wild, Blackout.

Love Scorpions big guy! This is my #1 song. Right behind this is "No One Lie You". Other greats are: "Winds of Change", "When the Smoke is Going Down", "Loving You Sunday Morning" "Big City Nights" and "Bad Boys Running Wild" "Holiday" "Believe In Love" "Rhythm of Love" and "Passion Rules The Game"

I was 9 I think when they sang that track, the big hit of the year... That reminds me of party's we did in the afternoons, you dance with the boy you like, shaking... The first feelings of love for a child, innocent and beautiful... I love that song, the voice(s), the guitars... Yes you're right... Thanks for your reaction. Love from France 🇫🇷😘

Scorpions kings of the power ballads !!

YEAH....Scorpions are one of the best man!! Check out No one like you..it kicks ass and along with Rock you like a hurricane, their most famous soung.

Scorpions usually do "buildup" through key changes, emotional vox and Guitars literally "weeping"!

A band filled with so much talent! I don’t feel like they have gotten the recognition they so deserve 🖤🖤🖤🖤

Love The Scorps. Try "The Zoo" you'll love it. 😁❤🤘

This ballad was one of the most powerful song's who put the heavy metal music up on 80's. For me when I was 15 years old (1984) I saw this lyrics as a story between a lost love of a couple. But in our days I can see it as well as a political song. When back that time was RDA and RFA, so two Germany's divided by a wall, all the lyrics could express the love between the two dived Germany's, wanted to be together. So for me the song "Winds of Change", it's the part II of "Still loving you", after they decide to broke the Berlin Wall and unify the two Germany's in one in 1989. 🤘

This song is unique in that the chorus happens at the very end...just like "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey.

Saw them live twice - amazing performances!! "The Zoo" is fire!! Also "Holiday" is my favorite ballad by them.

Scorpions have a LOT of amazing music!!😍😍

Check out some stuff from earlier in their catalog. They've had a bunch of different guitarists over the years. All of them excellent. This song features Rudolf Schenker on the outro. He hardly ever takes leads. His brother Michael overshadowed him in that department. Michael was also in UFO and is a legendary player. But Uli Jon Roth is my favorite Scorpions guitarist. Try Sails of Charon. You will not be disappointed.

That last guitar solo gives me chills and goosebumps ever time

Best Scorpions album is Taken By Force (1977). It features greats songs like We’ll Burn the Sky, Riot of Your Time, and my personal favorite song Sails of Charon.

Best sounding live Band 🎤 🎸 🥁 🎵 🎶 🙌

Scorpions were my favorite, had the CD on repeat.

You should check out "Winds of Change" its 👌! Scorpions rock❤

I saw them on their North American tour in 1984 right after this album came out. It was one of their all time famous concerts. Their concerts sounded like their albums only better.

Scorpions never disappoint. Nice reaction guys.

I remember ehen this first came out in 1984 and had the album/cassette. After experiencing a divorce after 23 years the song relates more now than it did then.

This is by far the best power balad from the 80's! Done by a bunch of Germans.

Yeah, you are right, it's 80ties. Isn't it great how some tell deep love-stories only through "Vibes and Vocals" and take you on a "dream-ride" ?!

I played the Scorpions on my boom box all the time. Good memories.

I'm so glad you listened to the full version. This song is the "hell no we're not breaking up, I'm fighting for this relationship" song

Another power ballad by them similar to this is "Believe in Love". 🔥🔥

This song ROCKS!! I've seen the Scorpions 4 times, in Germany while stationed there in the 80s. They sound just like the studio tracks while live! Is it me or does this guy's girl always just sit there? I mean how can anyone listen to the Scorpions, of all bands, and not bop your head? Somebody wake her up!

Mattias Jabs destroys it at the end. Painkiller-by Judas Priest next. Killer 2 guitar attack and badass drumming , vocals. Bass kills it too. So damn Metal.

A favorite band of mine. Not to mention they are fantastic live

Thank you for doing the longer version of this song. One of the best power ballads, if not the best, ever!

I like how y'all enjoy the music on a lot of reaction videos younger people have a tendency to only want the words and music together and anytime there's too much music then it's like this is boring but let me tell you something there's something that can be done during all that time that there's just music between people that love one another or just want to love on one another

80s metal bands had some great ballads. This is one of them.

This song was on every mix tape I gave a girl in the 80s lol. so damn good

Winds of Change is an amazing gem. The background stories will be just as amazing cuz there's a lot of history about this song and video

The live Oakland 84’ concert footage- please check that out- Rock you like a hurricane or anything else; there’s a great instrumental in there too….enjoy! ❤️🎼🎶❤️✅

Another great Scorpians classic I highly recommend that you react to is "Send Me An Angel" 🎧👍

Seen these guys in concert in 92 Missoula, Montana 🤘🔥🔥🤘!!!!

scorpions -,, when you came into my life,,

Its a power ballad.

MASTER PIECE.BEST BALLAD EVER. PERIOD

And now I can't get the picture of you holding up the boombox having your Lloyd Dobler moment out of my head...

You nailed it on the part about the guitar standing out man. And that's every scorpions song too 😍 while Klaus has that amazing and unique voice, the guitars still steal the show every time

Goosebumbs!!! Did she hear the song? Not a single facial expression. No feelings at all?

It’s actually becomes a duet between the singer and the guitar. The greatest metal ballad ever…

Scorpions for sure were legendary in my day, such a deep collection of songs. Try "Arizona" for some awesome guitar licks and for another rock ballad try "Always Somewhere." Love the channel, keep up the good work.

Listen to Make it Real, a power ballad with the message that you've got to turn your dreams into reality. Great guitar by Rudolf Schenker

This is so raw and emotional, like love is.

So great to see your first exposure to the Scorpions. They have SO many great songs to choose from. China White, When The Smoke is Going Down, Rock You Like A Hurricane (I'm pretty sure you've heard that before), Always Somewhere, The Sails of Charon. The earlier Uli Jon Roth period is much different than the period where they became a huge international band in the 80s. A great band that has put out a lot of great albums, not just songs.

Having seen them live in Portland a couple of times in the 80's this is still the best ballad of that Era! Great vid fam ☮❤☮

Scorpions - Sails of Charon, with the original guitarist Uli Jon Roth...the Guitar is just killer and the drums will blow your head off!

One of the best German rock bands ever. If you want an up tempo song check out Rock You Like A Hurricane.

The 80’s was a great year to group!! I love them!!

One the greatest bands ever!!
