[@k.i.7955]

Did you ever think we, could be as close as brothers!!..... Hit's me every time!!!..... One luv, amen!!!

My husband is an army vet, he was there when they tore down the wall, he still has a piece of it to this day

Unwelcome occupying force ?🤔 I wonder what unwelcome occupying force is to blame for America being there in the 1st place . . . . Germany !

[@xoxolovechristielynn]

Remedial Gash go back to school and stop listening to racist radicals.

[@xoxolovechristielynn]

Remedial Gash what’s funny also is that Scorpions are German lol. They were not for the Berlin Wall and while they hated the war, so did the soldiers. Since you don’t understand anything, why don’t you go listen to some Nickleback or something.

[@scottking7260]

The Scorpions are German. This song was released less than a year after the Berlin Wall came down. That whole time/experience was very personal to them.

[@radiomanjk]

The Scorpions are infact Brittish and they had a hit in the 60s with a Fats Domino cover named Hello Josephine, that's the reason why Scorpions never used The in front of their name. But yeah Scorpions are German and were scoring hits throughout the 80s, I really like still loving you though.

[@Mertaranta]

It was actually released in January 1991, over a year after the Berlin Wall came down.

[@stirbjoernwesterhever6223]

The was wirtten in late sommer of 1989 after the Scorpions attended a rock festival in Moscow and they felt the first time, that Gorbatschows policy of Perestroika and Glasnost had a real impact on the life in the USSR. It was released on the new album in November 1990 and on Single in January 1991. Soon the song became the soundtrack of the reunification of Germany and the end of the cold war.

[@jgilbertify]

@@radiomanjk Huh??!!!

[@radiomanjk]

@@jgilbertify What don't you get there, there is a band named THE scorpions and a band named scorpions. The first one scored a hit in the 1960s kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z16yp6Nnp8pqj8k and were from the UK and this one is a German band, but without "THE" in the name. I don't know if they were aware about the other band when they decided about the name, but if you talk about The Scorpions and you want to be strict about this, you're not talking about the German band.

[@Doodsy1975]

I was a kid in the 80's, and I wish I could be a kid again, to go back and live those times again.

[@schokischlecki1980]

I was a kid in East Germamy. I have no wish to go back in time, even though I had a beautiful, careless childhood there and a lot of things are simply gone and there's no going back to revisit.

Klaus Meine is SEVERELY underrated as a singer! He is right up there with Freddie Mercury, Robert Plant, etc., etc.!!!

[@calipop_9253]

This song always makes me cry. I was a freshman in high school when the wall came down. My uncle had a German exchange student at the time and he was so happy and also terribly heartbroken he couldn’t be there to witness it in person.

[@montrelouisebohon-harris7023]

I never get sick of hearing this song and I can listen to this and Send Me an Angel all day long.!!!❤❤ the words to their songs are so meaningful and if you listen to more of their music it's all written like this..

[@dillodefense]

Sometimes, you have to look beyond the lyrics to find the world events in that period of time. That was a huge moment. Germany was united once again.

[@uwerieger9793]

[@sombergirl2886]

I remember watching the news when I was a kid & seeing them tear down The Berlin Wall it was a groundbreaking experience the very first time I heard this song I got chills

Klaus Meine actually does the live whistling on this song. great singer and the guy can whistle too.

[@josiec3804]

One of my favorite songs...it"s my ringtone. Watching the video and hearing it gives me the chills every time. The Scorpions distinctive sound makes this song unforgettable.

[@lacyinmon1004]

I was a child when the Berlin Wall came down

[@dalehammers4425]

I was 12. I remember it clearly. Was one of the marks of the end of the Cold War. Was a sign that the fear could be lessened at last. I remember watching my grandfather in tears watching it crumble.

[@NefariousKoel]

Was a teen in High School. It was huge indicator of change.

[@raymondmanderville505]

I was a kid when the wall went up & the last thing I would have expected was it’s coming down over night

[@anacrobat89]

Song is SPECIFICALLY referring to the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1990 which was an UNPRECEDENTED EVENT.

[@Mertaranta]

The Wall actually came down in November 11th 1989.

[@resipsa6874]

Still Loving You by Scorpions!

[@laritownsend2527]

This is my favorite voice of the 80's. Has a great tone.

[@guidosarducci]

This song is, in fact 30 years old...and "Scorpions" are from Hanover, Germany. Too many good tunes...Rock You Like a Hurricane, Still Loving You, No One Like You........................................

[@neatdesign]

At @6:55 is Nelson Mandela, who was freed from prison exactly 30 years ago today (Feb 11, 1990). His release precipitated the end of apartheid in South Africa and he was elected president 4 years later. The 1988-1991 era was indeed one of many sweeping historical changes all around the world.

I will never forget watching the German people take sledgehammers to that wall. It seemed like the end of war; how wrong we were.

[@Pariahala]

I'm an 80's kid, I remember this feeling of hope when the wall came down, then coming of age in a optimistic culture that was crushed when the States decided to go to war and burn all that optimism down.

[@robbfranklin1741]

[@andyball8379]

Felt compelled to cut-paste my comment from your lyric video: In the 1980s, largely in response to pressure from the U.S. and President Reagan, Gorbachov embarked on a program of "perestroika" (economic reform) and issued a decree of "glasnost" (openness). Those policies are now regarded as foreshadowing of the impendng fall of the Berlin wall, and the dismanteling of the Soviet Socialist empire. Winds of Change.

[@Mertaranta]

And then Putin "entered the chat" and brought it all back.

[@raymondritenour6033]

Unfortunately for us we now have communist Bernie Sanders running for president who wants to take the United States in the direction of the Soviet Union..

[@Timo8.2.]

It was more about the economical problems that Soviet Union was going through than Reagan or US pressure. USA had pressured Soviet Union since the start of Cold War. Soviet Union really didn’t care what America thought. The war in Afghanistan basically bankrupted Soviet Union so Gorbachev wanted to get the economy going with perestroika. Glasnost was a response for mounting dissatisfaction from the people and different Soviet states.

[@SupertzarMetal]

They got the idea for this song after playing the Moscow Peace Festival in 1989. Wind of Change, and Send Me an Angel was on The Crazy World album that came in 1990. The part at the end is a female astronaut talking about being in space you get to appreciate the world. Back in 1989-90, there was a lot of change and optimism. Somehow it disappeared. 9/11, Iraq, Syria, etc.

[@bawitback]

[@Cupcake66441]

The Fall of the Berlin Wall. East Germany was under the control of the Marxist (communism) U.S.S.R. The falling of the wall ushered in FREEDOM. I was plenty old enough to know and understand THEN, the why of what happened that lead to this song being written. Yes, yes, I am again over a year late in commenting. This song is ALL about the end of Communism in the U.S.S.R. The U.S.S.R no longer exists, it is back to being Russia. At this point, it's moot what that Country is called. They tried, and succeeded in little ways, to be more Free. It didn't last long, they started sinking right back into that pit...enter Vlad Putin, KGB operative. Anyway, it was an amazing time to live. Decades later, the world as a whole, is under the very real, 'knocking at your door' close, end game - Marxism is HERE. Once again, in my life time, I can honestly say.. "What a time to be alive"!.

[@extraordinarilyaverage]

Great time in history man. Good choice

[@rorycoats8014]

You talk about the way your life was sounds like BLANCO BROWN when he heard Tim McGraws song DON'T TAKE THE GIRL he decided to make his life about Purpose and not make his street sense s Reality

[@miriamhorner4223]

This band is from Germany, in the 80 s, the German fight for their rights to become free. The Wall between eastern Germany called DDR, should belong to west Germany. One country, the same rights for everybody. Eastern Germany belongs to Russia, west Germany was government by the United States, United Kingdom and France.

[@cakesaregood5176]

"Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall", also known as the Berlin Wall Speech, was a speech delivered by United States President Ronald Reagan in West Berlin on June 12, 1987.

[@twoking10]

I just learned this song about 3 weeks ago, (the rhythm guitar part). My fiance lives in Ukraine. I had heard this song a 100 times but never really listened to the words or thought about it. I mostly listen to the sounds. Anyway, so when I was learning the words to sing it, it occurred to me, this HAS to be about the fall of the Berlin Wall. Sure enough, I looked it up and that is what its is about. I thought about that speech that President Reagan made at the Brandenburg gate.. "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall." And I got very emotional. It meant something to me. I didn't even realize how the song had become an anthem throughout Eastern Europe for freedom, especially economic freedom, freedom from the chains of socialism. I guess that is why my fiance Elena likes it so much. I always liked it but now is one of my favorite songs.

[@kikionthetrailoflove7036]

The message of this incredible song is perhaps more relevant in 2022 than it was in 1989. It's a song that spans generations. The world is falling apart before our very eyes, not just politically, socially. Our natural environment, our wildlife, our relationship with animals needs to change. Since I turned 40 years old I think deeply about so many things. Time makes us think deeply, we need to change the world.

[@soupdragonuk]

If I remember this was voted by the German people as song of the century. I can still recall the news flash when the BBC broke into the normal programming to show the citizens breaking down the Berlin Wall. It was quite chilling and moving. A wall that had been so divisive and had imprisoned people based just on where they lived.

[@chrisevans5259]

Such a brilliant song,...and so symbolic in Germany's history,.. The 1990 dismantling of the Berlin wall such a massive event in the archives of time...
