The Berlin wall falling is such a great moment in history.

[@darla896]

This was one of the most amazing things in my life. My bf was in the Army stationed in Germany when this happened. He said a week later thousands of refugees crested the hill they were on and passed through peacefully. He still tears up talking about it.

Yes, and this song and video is my favorite scorpions tune. "Still loving you" is a close second. What a great band. Did you know that these guys couldn't even speak or understand English when they started.

[@paulthompson6873]

There is no mistaking Klaus’ voice, it’s one of a kind. Try Still loving you, No one like you, or Holiday. They have an extensive catalog of really good music. Love the Scorpions 🦂

I love how music brings people together. When the Berlin Wall came down I was a child, and I will always associate this song with the end of the cold war and the reunification of my country. So much emotion, just wow!

[@susanlindner8626]

The Scorpions are a band from Germany and this song was written when the Berlin Wall came down. It was an amazing time for Germany.

[@cristyrawks6325]

It was written about the fall of Soviet Union, but only became really anthemic when the Berlin Wall came down, issuing in the German Reunification.

[@jmcquown]

@@cristyrawks6325 I remember coming home from work and turning on the TV and seeing images of the Berlin Wall being torn down and the Eastern border guards did nothing to stop it. I heard this song on the radio about the same time. German rock music was not a commonly heard thing in 1989 but I know this song!

[@cristyrawks6325]

@@jmcquown By the time, they made the video, the images of the Berlin Wall coming down were on German TV of course. So Scorpions integrated that into the music video. But Klaus wrote the song back when they played the Moscow Peace Festival. Months before the fall of the wall.

[@bikerbud3903]

"Still loving you" is a must Scorpions song to do.

I second that!

“Send Me an Angel” by the Scorpions is one of the most beautiful songs ever. Please react to that video. You won’t be sorry.

I was a kid when the wall came down and this song is forever in my heart the sound of our reunification. This bringts tears to my eyes even now. What a great moment in time!

[@JennRighter]

I still tear up every time I hear this song. Also, Shawn and Mel are looking FINE.

[@StaciaAmnaber]

They are looking fine and their chemistry is perfect. Loving them so much rn.

[@God-ck5yo]

One of the best moments of my gig-going life was with this band. I was at the famous Scorpions gig at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin in 1999, celebrating the tenth anniversary of the fall of Berlin Wall. During this song many many denim and leather clad hairy-arsed heavy rock fans, many of whom were former East Germans, were openly crying and hugging one another "like brothers" - me included. At that moment we felt we could change the world and that we really are all just one people. God, I wish we could all that feel like that again today, the world really needs it.

[@sabrinaaustin8432]

I remember when the Berlin wall came down. What an amazing historical moment! That song still gives me chills to this day. World Peace. Why is that so hard??? Oh, and can we talk about the Def Leppard shirt!! Love it!!

They kick ass live. One of the best concerts I saw in the 80s.

[@treewhitefeather4711]

Still loving you by scorpions is another one you may like

The Scorpions were fantastic. This was probably their most meaningful song, but they have several other excellent songs. "Still Loving You" (the longer, album version at 6:27) and "No One Like You" are my favorites.

[@markdaube507]

I was an Air Force kid with an American AF mother and a German AF father. I was born in Hanover, West German, the home town of The Scorpions. This song is originally about the time when the Soviet Union fell and the Berlin Wall came down, uniting the communist held East Germany with their western brothers and sisters. But, this song is TIMELESS and can be applied to modern times.

[@lisahatton5718]

"And your girl Mel", I love that... 🤗 This song is one of my favorite all time song's.. Top 5.... I'm glad you listen to it... ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@seandobson6221]

I catch myself whistling this tune quite often oddly enough. I’ve had Scorpions on vinyl, then cassette, then CD, now on my iPod. Scorpions were a light in the darkness that was the Iron Curtain.

[@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.

[@billallen4793]

Regan could give a speech that reached out and grab you! Those acting roots came in handy..from Wyoming USA 🇺🇸 🤠

[@rosauragarcia9109]

The lead singer name is Mr. Klaus Maine he is one of the best voice of the rock music industry. His voice can touch any soul because he puts his emotions and feeling in each of the songs he sings. All of their songs are awesome, but i recommend fallow your heart, believe in love, the rhythm of love, always somewhere, humanity, eye of the storm, the good die young ft with Tarja , we built this house, and the most recent one is "sign of Hope". Scorpions for ever one of my favorite rock bands.

[@larrygunnell5591]

Beautiful timeless ageless song by the guys from Germany. They knew firsthand the reality there after WWII. The winds of change was their vision of a better future for all of us !

This song says it all. the Wind of Change. To me listening to this song for all these years always gets me. Every time. And just think of the countries who are divided instead of United. Here in the states we kind of lucky. We're united, but not quite fully united. And as they say in the song. Brothers. I guess what I'm trying to say is, why can't we continue to live United. That's what America is all about. Many colors and many cultures living united. As this country is called UNITED States of America. We done it before, so lets do it again. living in unity, and help teach the other countries to do the same. Let's rock this world in a good way with alot of positivity.

[@Em-jy1rq]

Good history behind this song. It was written the night the Scorpions played the Moscow Music festival. It was the first western music festival in the former soviet block after the fall of the Berlin wall. The band had finished the concert and were doing the tourist thing. They got on a boat that sailed the Moskva river through Moscow. Being a band of Germans, the wall was an ever present embodiment of division and distrust, that had been nullified. Klaus Meinethe singer and song writer said, that night, he felt such hope for the future. We had avoided mutually assured annihilation. There was good reason to whistle a tune of hope. The walls that separate us now are not physical. That makes it harder to get purchase. Tomorrow is counting on us to fix this every bit as much as we needed those that came before to fix their

[@MrsMcKittenz]

You are so right, we need to take care of our world and everyone living on this our home. It’s something we have to do.

i was a kid in west germany back in the 80s. half my family lived in east germany and i remember like yesterday how it felt to visit them. hours of waiting at the border, vigurous car inspections by the border military, driving to the local police presidium to register followed by at least another hour of waiting for documents (for a simple matter that usually would take 5 minutes) and then finally drive to my families place. the east germans weren't allowed to travel to germany with their kids, to reduce the risk of them fleeing to the west. so we mostly traveled to them. it was such a great moment when the berlin wall fell and all the borders opened. random people meeting in that moment just behind the border in west germany and people celebrating together.

2 of my favs

[@indycustommade3568]

I was stationed in Germany from '86 to after Desert Storm in February '91. There were people who still got killed in 1989 trying to escape. Before Desert Storm, our unit would go to Grafenwoehr for a month to do live fires. There would be times we were allowed to get close enough to see small towns in East Germany. They would always tell us not to make any sudden actions to the East German Guards. They told us they could shoot. It was really sad knowing that people were still trying to escape and died. Had they waited just a couple of months they could have just walked over the lines. When we finally passed over to East Germany to see what it was like we were shocked. There was a very high tv tower that they converted to a restaurant. When you went to the top you could see the entire city. It really hit people hard to see how the Germans lived on the East vs West. it was night and day. I never have forgotten about that and it's been 32 years ago. My family on my Mom's side are all German. I grew up living there in my early years. This was the song that meant so much. Nice Reaction.

[@kimbeauxs]

My cousin was at the Berlin wall when it fell and has pictures and gave me a tiny piece. I still have it along with the pics of where it came from. It's just crazy this was so long ago. Feels like yesterday.
