In Germany it became the anthem of the fall of the Berlin Wall and the End of the divided Germany. So it has a lot of meaning for all of us in Germany
I thought that was David Hasselhoff - Looking for freedom 😅
@@Mathijs1308
Looking for Freedom was also very popular but I think more emotional linked to the fall of the wall are "Winds of Change" by the Scorpions (1990) and "Freiheit" (Freedom) by MariusMüller-Westernhagen (1987).
Looking for Freedom (1989) was just by accident published at the same time, it gave same spirit to the whole situation and Hasselhoff had this cool speaking car in Knight Rider.
I would say if you ask Germans which of the three songs they would choose for playing on a remembrance party to the fall of the wall, "Looking for Freedom" would be in 3rd place.
General Patton was right. We should have settled this right at the end of WWII, while the armies were already there. What a crime of humanity East Berlin was. It's truly shameful that the world let it happen, and let it continue for so long.
@@Mathijs1308 he wishes it was, but it never was.
Even in the U.S., this song was fully understood to be an anthem for that! And in that context, it's always a bit emotional hearing the song.
This song was the Eastern Europe anthem in that time. After 1989, the entire region was in a constant change. For the good or for not that good. People were living, sensing and embracing freedom like something they have never seen before. This song embodies thru lyrics and music what we all felt back then.
Also, feeling like this song needs to be heard today because of our current conflict. This is such a beautiful melody and sentiment. I pray the new children of tomorrow may still have dreams to share.
Wind Of Change is exactly what Europe needs again.
This song is still loved in the United States. Not just in eastern Europe.
I know this comment is so late, but it wasn’t just an anthem in Germany all over the world and in the US. Besides research, watching the official video for the song is a must must must do whether it’s for a reaction or just for yourself! It explains with the emotion and the words and the feeling of the time was really about. With the Berlin wall falling on our televisions something we never thought we would ever see and I’m sure those in Germany never imagined. I have a piece of the wall myself! Please please watch the official video it is one of those moments that you’ve spoke about before. Now I have watched about 25 of your videos in the last 24 hours! Just found you and you are lovely and your passion for music moves me because I feel exactly the same. I have so many things to suggest and not sure where I can get a comment in that you’ll see. I might try to go over to twitch. But after the last day you know I have another new subscriber! You are enough!🫶🏻💕☀️✌️
Didn't take long for Europe to shift back left.
Listen to it again while watching the official video, it will totally move you. It was a great time to be alive!
This video was the short version sadly. There was so much more to enjoy.
As a retired Marine who served from 79-99, the Cold War was the core of my service. We spent years training for war with the Soviet Union. I spent a couple years on ship in the Mediterranean, Red Sea, Indian Ocean, the Black Sea and the Atlantic with our ships shadowed by Soviet ships and planes. That time period was tense with war drums . . . . . insurgencies in Central America funded by the Soviets and funneled through Cuba. This song came out around when the Berlin Wall came down. So much going on in the world at the time. This song with many others were the anthem of the time. We all felt like war was over forever. Semper fidelis.
thank you for your service
Semper Fi Devil Dog
Scorpions is a great band, actually something special for me. My father listened to them and he introduced me to this kind of bands.
He has been dead for 6 years and just like with Queen or Tears For Fears when I listen to Scorpions I can feel him close to me
I was young when the wall of Berlin came down. It wasn't until the last ten years or so that I understood the impact of that moment meant.
Excellent song. ❤
It's a shame that One of Tho most emotional guitar solos of all time was missing on this version
Along with the bridge.
Yeah, sadly a poor choice this time
The did the same thing on Still loving you.
Why cut out the best part. The songs twice as good with it or more. You would have had a lot more to react to.
Why does this version even exist? Who wants to hear half the song???
Such a great song! The origins are misconstrued in some ways, though. So many people believe it was specifically written for the fall of the Berlin Wall. The truth is, this song was conceived after the Scorpions played a festival in Moscow prior to the events of the wall falling. It marked one of the first times major rock bands played in the Soviet Union. Up to that point rock music was frowned upon there. So the fact they were in Moscow, in a massive stadium playing rock music, was monumental. And during that festival, a moment inspired the beginning roots of the song that we later knew: "I follow the Moskva down to Gorky Park" a reference to a moment they had sightseeing down the Moskva River while they were in Moscow, "An August Summer night" referring to the festival that took place in Moscow in August, "soliders passing by" was in reference to Red Army soliders, "Listening to the wind of change" in reference to how they felt to be playing in a country that long had been against that kind of music. The song was originally about THAT moment that they shared during that festival. Then before release of the song, the Berlin Wall fell and the song gained even more meaning. So yes, the song came to be the anthem for Germany during the fall of the Berlin Wall and an International anthem for the end of the Cold War, but at it's roots, it was a song about Moscow and how they were apart of a festival where they (all the bands) felt like "changes" were coming... "The future is in the air, I can feel it everywhere, I'm blowing with the wind of change". On point for what was to come. The official video released after all these events and the band wanted to include imagery of the Wall coming down because the song took on deeper meaning at home. So, Wind of Change is the perfect example of how a song can become about more than what it was originally intended to be. A beacon of hope in a time where some of the most impactful changes in history happened. And let's face it, the song is beautiful. Great reaction :)
spot on
It's sad that the youth of today doesn't knowabout the changes of the late '80s early '90s! It must be on those of us who experienced it to show them. To tell them, and to teach them.Teach them that freedoms are not for free.
@@alanbarr9327 There is no such thing as a free dom. It takes sacrifices even if its without "violence". Those sacrifices are rarely even talked about. ask a east german, they will swallow you hole.
Thank you
This song takes me back to my younger years traveling 6 hours this song comes on and I look out the window and just remember all the good times I had ❤🌹
I was in Germany stationed at Bad Kissingen when the wall came down. It was amazing to see those who crossed over and stopped and looked with awe how things were on the free side of Germany.💕
One of my earliest event memories was seeing the berlin wall come down on tv, i didnt understand it as a child but as a adult im grateful i got to see such a moment in humanity. This song always makes me remember that moment. ❤️
As an old grey haired fool who's been listening to rock music for over 60 years, I've found that you hear the song when you were meant to hear the song. I love watching young folks hear my music for the first time. It brings back memories of when I first heard the song. Many a time I've shed a tear as I see some young person express love for a song that was very important to my youth. Congrats on your new digs, make sure you get your favorite plant friends in place once you've settled. Thanks for the reaction and be safe!
I just love this song ! In these dark days I would just love to jump in a time machine and go back in time to the 80’s !
Oh yes! The world was a better place back then. And the music was in a totally different universe.
going back to the 60'S was a 100 times better than the 80's...but its true...the 80's held a spark of the 60's in them...but the 60's had the most creative transforming music of the last 500 years! almost all of the groups in the 60's had songs like this...uplifting and joyful and most of them had real MEANING and worth...
Absolutely timeless and transcends time. We should really put these ballads from Scorpions in a time capsule and send them out to space, for the joy of having all the stars, planets and entire Universe listen to it too. Another great ballad from Scorpions is a Japanese folk song called Kojo No Tsuki. They played this to a live audience in Tokyo and features on theircl album called Tokyo Tapes. An absolute gem of a song. Thank-you 🎸🌻⭐️
Love it!
It’s been said before already but yes, this song is THE anthem for the fall of the Berlin Wall, timeless and soooo beautiful. Unfortunately you did a very short version of a TV appearance from this song, the full version is so much more beautiful and you missed really almost the essence of the song and a very beautiful guitar solo. Definitely have to do this one again in the right version Aileen!
I find this song so peaceful, and uplifting. Glad you'll be continuing your Scorpions journey.
This is such a great rock ballad. 🤘🤘
I've visited their concert tonight - they are as good as ever. Absolutely blessed to be able to say they are from my hometown and are rocking it for so many years now
so glad to see you go on a Scorpions journey. I would definitely recommend "No One Like You". Such a banger. Also for the best guitar riffs you'll ever hear and a VERY underrated song of theirs "Catch Your Train". Happy to see you back 😊👍
This is by far my favorite Scorpions song. I love the Whistles and the overall tone and flow of this song.
I've always had such a crush the singer,Klaus Mein. He's just so awesome. :}
OH! Half the song is missing!
.."The wind of change blows straight
Into the face of time, like a storm wind that will ring
The freedom bell for peace of mind
Let your balalaika sing what my guitar wants to say"
And the beautiful guitar solo and the outro.
Love your gentle spirit, very relaxing watching your videos.
We had a new piano music laboratory when I was in high school and this song was one that the teacher made us learn. Even though I listen mostly to heavy metal and classic, some of Scorpions songs will always be in phone no matter what. I hope you design you new home to your liking Aileen, brilliant video, have a superb day.🙂
Congratulations on the move and best of luck continuing on
Welcome back. Keep up the good reactions and keep on shining and smiling
And remember, all of these classics were sung without autotune, with live instruments, and if you didn't sing in tune the audience ripped you apart for it!
Also, SPARKLERS!!!! Nobody holding their cell phones up. You brought you Zippo or Bic and you lit it up in respect for the song! Fantastic pick! Keep em coming!
Unfortunately this was not a live audio performance. It was either lipsynched or the audio has been replaced. It sounds identical to the studio version and the volume of his voice doesn't change whenever he pulls the microphone away.
i heard this song when i was younger and i couldn't believe how many other songs i loved and saved when i further explored their catalog of music.
I think it’s great that you love music the way that you do I wish there were more people like you. Enjoy your journey!
I love watching your reactions Aileen I can tell ur really feeling the music!!!😁👏👏✌️
Another great band from back in the day! and they still are rocking it! Seen them live 2 times and they kicked ass!!!!!
On eof the songs my mom said they listened a lot when I was a baby with me. I've had a very, very close connection and soothing reaction to this song. I'm glad my dad saved my mom from sports to rock music. Good job dad, rip.
The thing I love so so much about all the variety of music out there is that there is something out there for every mood you can imagine. I listen to music based on my emotion of the moment. Some days the thought of hearing a voice just grinds on me and I want pure classical violin and piano. Other times I'm so full of energy I don't know what to do with myself so I bust out some rare Cannibal Corpse and go ballistic. I sometimes find myself in weird moods I can hardly describe and find a song from the 30's, 40's, and so on that only fits that specific mood I'm in. It is wonderful to have so much choice and so much good music.
Scorpions is phenomenal👏👏👏Thank u always for sharing,Ms. Aileen💙💘💙
I remember my classmate singing this in the school corridor the first day after the wall fell. I have tears in my eyes right now.,
Parts of me wish I could grow up in either the 60s or 80s for this kind music back then. It definitely feels like you’re in a trance with his voice, like you said.
Also, you always have the absolute cutest expressions ❤😭
I love this song so much. It brings me back to when I was in my early 20's when the world was for the taking and life was so exciting and there was so little responsibility
This is one of the songs I remember from my childhood.
it was everywhere.
In the car, in the radio.
The background track with the Berlin wall going down, and the iron wall breaking.
Hearing it just takes me back to being a kid back then.
Because I actually remember it from it. And its not really many things you remember from the early years.
Love the joy on your face. One of my favorite songs ever
Your smile lights up the screen more reactions please
Nice, great song choice!! If you wanna check out more from Scorpions, I highly recommend "The Zoo" next. Very underrated song, good to see you posting again! 🤘🤘🤙🤙
big city nights or so, rock you like a hurricane?
That Bassline from "The Zoo" is epic
The Zoo from Moskau is amazing..🤘🏻
Beautiful song and a super intelligent reactor ✌️ Love to watch videos from you, you have a strong good soul! Love from Germany 🖤❤️💛
Yes! I’m clicking like before it even starts, I know you’re gonna really like this. Hard to explain how this had such a global affect,…just a beautiful & historic song. The band actually performed this for Gorbachev in Moscow a few years later.
Welcome to the new home, hope it's everything you wanted. So happy you did this song. It's a big deal to us older people who were around when the wall came down.
This song was and is almost magical 🔥❤🔥
The other amazing ballad from this album (Crazy World, 1990), Send Me An Angel is awesome.
I don’t have the history most of these others do but whenever I was on a road march during basic training this song was always in my head.
Hi from L.A 🇺🇸.
Congratulations on your new pad.
Would love to see one with that amazing guitar solo too!
What a moment that was in human history.
Yes, this song became an anthem of November 9th, 1989 when the wall in Berlin came down. However, the original song is not about that.
Gorky Park is not in Berlin. They just put scenes of Berlin into the music video. It's a great song though. One of the Scorpions' classics.
It doesn't matter if you're late to the party, just that you found it. Enjoying this journey with you, reintroduces me to songs I haven't heard in a while👍
Good song. Haha, they actually have a song titled, 'In Trance' from the album of the same name. Lonesome Crow is an awesome song. Drifting Sun (vocals by Ulrich Roth), Fly to the Rainbow, Polar Nights (vocals by Roth), We'll Burn the Sky, The Sails of Charon, When the Smoke is Going Down & Woman are great songs too. Oh yeah, Winds of Change by Jefferson Starship is a really good song too, & Quit Wasting Time from the same album. Actually, the entire album is great.
I seen Scorpions 17 times so far and Klaus Meine has such an incredible voice! Hopefully I'll see them again a couple more times!!! ❤
You gotta listen to the full version with the guitar solo and all!
The Scorpions also have a lot really underrated songs :) My personal favorites are "Woman", "In Your Park", "We'll Burn the Sky" and "The Zoo"
Your getting more closer too 200 k so awesome alot hard work does paid off you really deserve it your so awesome and give fantastic reactions on your youtube channel love your cute smile your always so gererous on your youtube channel also. Thank you so much for sharing your video with us love it.🌹❤️👍
big song around the time the wall came down. I was there serving when the wall came down, and myself and 2 buddies took a truck to Berlin to see history. Officially the end of the cold war.
This song is amazing..so emotional..I was a teen in 1989 and I thought that the end of the Iron curtain would surely see peace in our time, alas not but still we live in hope..
This is such a great song by the band Scorpions is one of my favorite rock and metal bands of all time it's really sad that they are not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
We love it in Denmark too much ❤️❤️❤️
Scorpions did a very good job capturing the mood of the time in this song. The iron curtain and the Berlin Wall broke down, more and more countries in Eastern Europe became democracies, east and west came closer together after decades of nuclear threat, it was a time of a general spirit of optimism. And this song was the soundtrack for it.
Happy 2 see younger generation discovering and loving the music from us older generation young lady. Hugs from 🇮🇹🇧🇪🇪🇺.
Just a few seconds in I started tearing up. This never gets old.
Just subscribed. Really liking your vibe
If you get an opportunity, you REALLY need to listen to the full version of this song. So, so, much more to this song especially when you see all the video that goes with it. I CAN NOT STRESS ENOUGH HOW MUCH YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO IT. Love your channel and watching you.
Just a couple of suggestions - John Denver's Annie's Song and Calypso. You will love them both.
The end of the song was missing, and that takes this song to the whole new level. You should check out the longer version too.
Nice reaction as always. This song became kind of an anthem to the german reunification. Another great german band of this time period would be the "Münchener Freiheit" or just "Freiheit" as it is known in english speaking countries. Their songs are mostly in german but some of their more popular stuff was also rearranged into english lyrics. One of their most popular songs would be "so lang man Träume noch leben kann" in german or "Keeping the dream alive" (english version) which is often played in the UK during Christmas also it is not really a Christmas song.
The very first time I heard this was while watching a Filipino band in Singapore. I had been at sea so didn't get to hear it before that. LOVE Scorpions.
Favorite song from them.

Hi Aileen! Long time no see, I wanted to let you know that Vintersea just dropped a new album and it's freaking incredible! Can you please check out "Lonesome Tide" from Vintersea's new album?
As a vocalist, you will absolutely love that song and there's a very surprising instrument that they use that no other metal band has ever used before (that I'm aware of).
I'll give you a hint, it's a wind instrument. I really hope you check it out, "Lonesome Tide" is right up your alley! Great to have you back Aileen, take care. 🤘🤘🤙🤙
Im french and il love you ❤ aha you love your style 😮
My class song. Class of 94' 🤘🤘
This is a fantastic Anthem from the Scorp`s and on the other end of their musical spectrum "Animal Magentism" (the Song) reigns supreme. Aileen, you have got to check it out! I remember when they tore down the Berlin Wall and shortly after the Scorpions released this, its an Incredible song of historical value and to a Great time in the History of Germany!
Love it thank you ❤❤
The only thing more beautiful than this song is you❤
Wow, great reaction!! Very eloquent! I appreciate that a lot. This will sound weird, but I really appreciate Americans who know how to speak properly. So I am subscribed. And I do very much Enjoy your analysis
Hi, very beautiful reaction 🤘
You moving on.. I wish I was 20 an was into relaise all this lovely mosic we had in the 80.. have a nice trip girl
89 its from when the break
Amazing band love them always have !
The amount of music I would love to see you hear for the first time.
This is a great song, but I think there are some songs that are hard to appreciate to their fullest unless you lived at the time they came out. This is definitely one of those songs. The moment I hear this song, I think the time in my life when these changes were taking place in the world. This song is a full on rush of emotions for me, and I'm not even German, so I can only imagine what somebody from there my age would feel. Also, it's not the full version of the song, so I'd recommend checking that out in your spare time.
It was a magic moment in a magic time. It was a good time for The US and Germany. One of the best times of my life.
I still remember as a kid, watching the berlin wall fall, feeling the hope that kinda spread world wide. Glad my generation was the last to be taught duck and cover under our desks incase of a nuclear war.
Enjoyable reaction. If you want another song with a similar feel then do their song Send Me An Angel. If you want a song of theirs with a totally different feel then the songs Blackout, Big City Nights, or When Passion Rules The Game.
It was a song of Change..the Berlin wall came down..and the rest is history..seen Scorpions play Arizona state numerous times..😊
Beautiful Song e Bellissima Aileen
This and "Right Here Right Now" were for this Gen X the songs that I associate with the amazing events of the late 80's
Great reaction and commentary I remember when this song came out and the Berlin Wall fell in 86... I requestthe band Tesla .Love Song
Hey Aileen, congrats on the new house! I was hoping you would do Wind of Change after the last Scorpions video. I would still love to see you do Velvet Revolver's Fall to Pieces (the music video version) and also since I loved your reactions to Linkin Park's Lost and Fighting Myself, it would be great to see you react to Healing Foot and More the Victim that they recently released. They are both so short you could probably do them both in one video. Keep up the great content!
Great selection. ...
Check out the 1979 Album Love Drive ...1st song Loving You Sunday Morning and the 1980 album Animal Magnetism...1st song Make it Real....2 great songs.
Great reaction
Welcome back ❤
Oh dear, the short version without the guitar solo 😢
I can't stand that this version even exists. A lot of UA-camrs are reacting to half the song, missing the incredible bridge and solo.
This song is a jewel, sound in one time that the world have big trouble, the berlin wall down and this song give faith to the people
I grew up in the 80's. When the wall came down it felt like a new beginning for the whole world. This song captures that felling! Didn't last long. 😞.
this is always one of those songs... been a fan of scorpions ever since i got to listen to them for the 1st time...
hey aileen any chance you will get back to nightwish?? been awhile since you done a reaction of them
Yes please send her more scorpions
We missed you aileen!
very good song i have to see them in royal arena in copenhagen, denmark on june 12 2023 very excited can´t wait i know you are a little bit rammstein fan so... i see them on june the 2 and the 3 i´m very excited to see what they play on this tour 🤘🤘🤘❤😍
This means so much more if you were around during that historical moment when the wall came down. This song is the anthem.
So many memories.
Was a US military NCO in Europe on that November night in 1989, walked into the pub just outside of Madrid, and there was no music, everyone just staring at the TV's over the bar. People dancing on a wall, I asked what was going on, and people just pointed at the TV's and said, "Berlin. You did this." I served in the Cold War, as did my Dad, and my Grandfather, all three of us in both "Cold" and "hot" wars, and while we played a part, I realized what I watching what was going on in Berlin, that it wasn't us that had finally ended the Cold War, it was the oppressed citizens of Eastern Europe, and their allies in the West, and all those that gave so much in the name of Freedom, that finally tore down that rusty, old Iron Curtain.
