Rapper FIRST time REACTION to Europe - Carrie! Oh lord this reminded me of my...

[@elena79rus]

"Carrie" was a huge hit all over the world. The lead singer was 23 when this song was released.

[@heidirippl2815]

Love their song, Cherokee

[@mattblatchley2061]

Europe - Rock the Night - Superstitious

[@andreadeamon6419]

Yes

[@raytull3922]

Superstitious has a perfect guitar solo. Love it!!!

​@@andreadeamon6419Damn straight INDIANS. EIGHTYS WAS THE BEST IN FT.LAUDERDALE WHOLE TIME. WILD .

[@OdinArrow28]

Rock the night is my favorite song to do at karaoke

[@BillGraper]

"Carrie" was their highest charting hit in the USA. It went to #3. "The Final Countdown" also made the top 10.

[@nancygarrett0000]

You had to be alive as a teenager backing up 1980's, to really, really understand and absolutely love these songs. We had the best movies, the best music, the best hair, the best wild clothes. II just love and miss this era. Thank goodness We had music videos to preserve all these beautiful songs. And back then, musicians, the they had talent and voices nowadays, they have neither

[@carriemichelle322]

❤❤ I always hated my name...Then Europe came out with this song. Made me so happy!!! Lol 😅 Great song of course. You should check out Slaughter....Fly to the Angels ❤

[@NativeNYerChicHK]

Me too 🥰 But there is the old Hollies song called “Carrie Anne” which is my first and middle names ♥️

[@PSBFAN1991]

This song was HUGE! I had my first slow dance to this song. ❤ Joey Tempest is a hot muffin. Fun fact: Tears For Fears were considered rock.

[@beadybaby]

Not my first but some of my best lol.

[@toddylu6869]

I can see this…thanks for the memories.

[@lisagriffin4725]

Joey Tempest still makes this ole lady swoon a little bit, lol😊

[@AmethystDew]

Fun fact right back at you - they were part of the U.K. New Wave music scene in 80's and were firmly in the pop placement. Sorry, I was there.

[@mickem4322]

The members of Europe were younger than 20 when they broke thru , and the singer Joey Tempest is an awesome songwriter with many Hits on his CV.. "Open your Heart" is , in my opinion, one of his best .. His voice is great in that one too ..as always..

[@sedatedape315]

Power Ballets! All the big 80s rock bands had at least one of them. Many had a few. Europe had several hits. You've reacted to their biggest chart toppers. But there's still several worth checking out. Others have given those I remembered, and a couple bangers I'd forgotten about 😊

[@fredriknilsson6042]

Power ballads 😉

[@luckyrobinshomestead]

I remember being stuck in a traffic jam dead still on the freeway on the school bus with my high school concert choir on our way to compete at all state and one kid had a boom box so we turned on the radio and this song started playing and we all started singing it. Everyone knew the song by heart because it had been on the radio so much the previous couple of weeks. Well, most of us did, and those who didn't knew the chorus by heart. It's a cool memory. We went through several other songs before we started moving and the bus driver made us turn it back off.

This and the song Cherokee are my two favorite songs by europe! Listening to it as a kid and then listening to the song Cherokee now.... Does some serious points to be made in that song

[@BrentHonn]

Carrie was Big Big Big Song. 💯👍

[@carieyablonski732]

This was my 1st concert. They opened for Def Leppard on the Hysteria tour. I was 12. And my names Carie. Awesome memories ❤️

[@t.a.k.palfrey3882]

Rock the Night is a very addictive tune by Europe.

[@larryparrish6460]

“Open your heart “another great ballad by Joey Tempest

[@anthonyarchuleta8651]

Superstitious is another great song by Europe

[@hnorrstrom]

Best guitar solo ever. And I don't even like solos in general.

[@vivii794]

That's my favorite one.

[@laoaganlester1728]

The band's name is Europe because the band is from Sweden. That's one reason.

[@patriciacloix71]

OMG magnifique chanson la voix et le solo guitariste électrique wow excellent merci à vous BP 👍👏🙏💖😱

[@Mvtobebo]

Oh my Joey Joey Joey! ❤❤❤

[@ZigZagBruno-racing]

This was a HUGE hit

[@gaiavenus]

Another good one Europe - Open Your Heart (Official Video) you are right he was 24 here. Love Joey Tempest voice.

[@purplelotus517]

Joey…such a good vocalist. Final Countdown is another good one. Europe has done very well over the years.

[@cerisewilson4088]

Check their song Cherokee. Cool music video!

[@ThatsillyChickBeth]

Yes and listen to that song now as an adult and actually paying attention to the words....

[@fatimasoares7261]

Oh my! Memories! Now you need to try "Superstitious" which has one of the most insane guitar solos ever.

[@thomasmann4909]

You need to watch Cherokee. That's a badass song!!!

[@karinkrenn]

Yes

[@bski308]

Wow, so many memories come flooding back when i hear this, This band was in my top ten when i was in high school in the 80s. ROCK THE NIGHT is the next one. You will like it. Oh and superstitious.

[@I.D.A-sw]

This is huge song and the have more ☮️

[@jaymez3461]

This song reminds me of a certain lady who burned down her high school in a fit of revenge. There were only a few survivors. Brutal!

[@emmef7970]

I agree, so brutal! 😆

[@JaquelineGoodspeed]

Lol lol lol. Well she was being bullied.

[@RafaelSantana-n4c]

Good song my friend trie Cherokee from Europe is a good 1 👍

[@jeannieschmidt2217]

I adore this song. The cadence and flow plus Joey's INSANE vocals make for perfect ballad.

[@gennyreese420]

Oh the memories this song conjures up!! Late 80s my bestie was Carrie and we saw these guys open for Def Leppard with Cinderella at Red Rocks, an unforgettable night and of Course every time we heard this song it got cranked lol….just in time for Halloween, she was my first roommate after leaving home, and we had a Poltergeist 👻💕💫🎃 we went thru some crazy stuff together…shout out to Carrie and thx for the memories BP ✌🖤🤘🏼

[@jeremiahrose4681]

Carrie was a hit, here's some other Europe songs, Seven Door Hotel; War of Kings; New Love in Town; I’ll Cry for You; Prisoners in Paradise; Superstitious; Open Your Heart; a lot of people know Rock the Night and also Cherokee must listen songs.

[@toddylu6869]

My hair looked like theirs for a couple of years… 1988-90. I had long straight blonde hair… it took a spiral perm so well. Oh those were the days. My tresses rocked😂❤

[@andreadeamon6419]

A a Cherokee and blackfoot Indian - add Cherokee to your list. It's my favorite

[@l-bird]

Yes I agree

[@karinkrenn]

Definitely

[@YachtMaestro]

Mah DOOD! It reminds us ALL of our first love at this point. ...even back then it sort of did, as teenagers. And that was kinda the point of the song's existence, if not the lyrics. They were trying to evoke those exact emotions!

[@JaquelineGoodspeed]

Europe and Carrie. Nice pairing.

[@OkiTLC]

I was in the 7th grade, had a little girlfriend named Carrie when my family moved to another state. I remember this song coming on the radio on our way out of town.😢

[@KaeyaIsHere]

My all time fav song

[@anthonycarducci2298]

The word to describe the band is......range. They have range if they can sing the Final Countdown and Carrie-too extremely different songs in just about every way.

[@vivii794]

Swedish band, even though they changed their names to sound more internatioal, haha. Proud to be swedish though.

[@Angela-oz1vu]

I bought this album with Heart and Debbie Gibson, my first albums. Check out Europe Cherokee

[@YachtMaestro]

"Is this a one hit wonder?" What kind of question is that?!?!?!?? Biggest hit was "Final Countdown", and it was a multimedia extravaganza despite being a live-performance staged performance. And I Swear to the Holy Spaghetti Monster, May His Noodly Goodness Ever Bless Us... The lead singer, when he FIRST starts singing... Looks EXACTLY like a woman!

[@tosweet68]

He was asking if Final Countdown was their 1 hit

[@TheMadeofhonor]

What a beautiful, classic, Piece of Art by Europe. Timeless!

[@horseygirl645]

As Joey starts to sing, he portraying like he’s standing in front of Carrie which is why I think he had his hands in his pockets like most guys would. As the song got more intense so did Joey’s movements. So cute! Love this song.🤟

[@TheRustyGuitarist]

Lmao!! This is why you're among my favorite reactors!! Always keep it 💯!! Europe do have a bunch of bangers you should check out!! Rock the Night, Cherokee, 7 Doors Hotel, Superstitious, and more!!

[@JesseMoreno-r1v]

In the video the guitar player is Kee Marcello but was recorded by John Norum

[@nivras16]

[@jodyjo10]

This was huge.. alot of the songs on this album were huge!! I was in high school then!!

[@kellykeegan3569]

Huge hit!!! One of the best power ballads.

[@Dellinger9]

Mans going through all the emotions. Musics powerful.

[@JDfromPhilly]

These bands in the 80’s, the lead singers were 19-25yrs old. Good looking, high voices, perfect rock hair, rippin guitars and of course a rock ballad. The record companies made all bands have at least one on the album. Once 84/85 came around music co’s made them release the ballad first which then ruined the group and album because it became too cheesy. But as a teen those ballads worked great with the ladies 😂. Ah the good old days. 💯🇺🇸👊🏻

[@briangoodie3420]

Not true about releasing ballads first. It was 1 or 2 heavy songs first then ballad.

[@alexwimmergren5239]

Great song brother!

[@cindylin101]

Europe is one of my favorite '80s rock bands, and I especially love their songs "Rock the Night" and "Cherokee."

[@stoneoutdooradventures2286]

You might of noticed John norum lead guitarist was replaced by kee Marcelo as he went through mental health issues and was on my sister's ward where she worked... John norum did recover though and rejoined the band.

[@jeremiahrose4681]

I forget how great his voice was, so underrated. Never mentioned with the great rock singers of that time. What a shame.

[@chelseahaley8350]

Ahh yes, the tradition of normally-loud bands making ballads to women's names. Boston's "Amanda", the Rolling Stones' "'Angie", Kiss' "Beth"...

[@stationc4572]

Def not a one hit wonder. Yes, final countdown was their biggest hit, but songs like Cherokee, superstitious, rock the night, let the good times rock, open your heart, etc are all very good. Pretty much both of their primary albums are great.

[@matteoedwardes2876]

Carrie reminds me of Great White’s Angel Song. They are overlooked because they had one cheesy tune (Once Bitten Twice Shy) but the rest of their stuff is…great. Like House of Broken Love, Save your love, and Rock me.
