I served in the U.S. Army in Germany in a tank battalion from 86-89, right at the end of the Cold War. This song captures that time perfectly. I’m an old man now, but this song still brings a tear to my eye.
Thank you for your service
I was in Finnish army 89-90 and Berlin wall was knocked down day after my 20:th birthday, anyone knows what gona happend next.
USN 85-89. Stationed in Yokosuka. Got pictures of the Russian coast north of Vladivostok. Somewhere we should not have been.
Germany in the 80s. Fulda Gap? Safe to say if the balloon went up, us forward deployed units were toast. We were expected to take as many with us as we could.
yeah, well what happened to all of that? fuck all is what happened.
@@Calinn86 Pfft...the irony of you saying that on a Polish girl's channel... You do a great injustice to the truth -- which is that many people (e.g., Poles, Germans -- East and West, NATO soldiers and even Western taxpayers) sacrificed blood, sweat and tears to give us a world that is much better now, for more people, than it used to be. This is inarguable. Your energy would be better spent working on what remains to be done rather than attempting to deceive others in re what has been done.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written, performed by one of the greatest bands
I used to listen to this song on repeat when i was younger, I think i still have a cd with that song on it.
One of the best german bands.
True for sure buuuuuuuuut all the rest of their songs are about dirty dirty sex
@@accidentalmusic2749 Not ALL of them! Really, you have to pay attention. Some of them are about drugs. 😂
.
.
But jokes aside, Scorpions have a lot of amazing songs covering hard topics, Under the same Sun, Humanity, White Dove are just a few off the top of my mind. Wind of Change is just one of many. Best band ever. With the best singer ever.
Best band
When this song came out It seemed like the world was heading toward peace. The wall was coming down, freedom and prosperity was on everyone's minds. The literal freedom bell was ringing. It did not take long for those walls to go right back up and for the wars to start again. This song gives me hope that ,one day, the world will be at peace.
Never will be change as long as Americans keep voting uniparty democrats and republicans who are all in the pockets of special interest groups and war profiteers.
As long as the powers-that-be are in power in America and elsewhere there will be war. We had a great leader a few years ago that truly despised war but he was taken out by those powers-that-be. I pray that he returns
@@tmacmi9095 yeah I’m there with you brother. I’m just grateful I grew up in freedom, racism was a thing of the past, and I raised my kids without the drinking and fighting and divorce of my time. It’s all going to hell now but maybe not. If we are strong enough to leave our hate and fear behind, and love our neighbor, and our adversaries we can survive what comes next like every previous generation of Americans did before us.
@@tmacmi9095 who?
@@erickanter4090Unfortunately it’s called evolution and the essence therein of the survival of the fittest. Same thing is happening right now in the jungles. In forests. In your garden lawn. They just don’t have musical instruments to promote their own fight. Or do they?
One of the most emotional songs ever. I hope for world unity and peace in 2024. 🌎🌍🌏☮️
Keep hoping because it's a long way off
This song always touches my heart as well. It was written shortly before the Berlin wall was taken down and with its timing and it's message of brotherhood/sisterhood it became something of an anthem for the fall of Communism. I'm both glad to see that it can still touch fresh listeners today. And saddened that its message of hope remains as needed today as it was back then.. But great reaction girl! And hope you explore more songs by this fabulous band!
This song always brings me back to the end of my teen years at the end of the 80's/start of the 90's. As you said it became practically an anthem, not only for the fall of communism/the Soviet Union, but all the changes which suddenly happened after decades of the Cold War and the world basically being quite nervous. The tearing down of the Berlin wall and reunification of Germany. The release of Nelson Mandela from imprisonment and a few years later the official end of apartheid in South Africa. The warming of relations between east and west (see the images of Gorbachev shaking hands with the Pope for example) and, yes, the fall of authoritarian communism and rise of democracy in many of the states formerly behind the "iron curtain". It seemed like the world was on the right track for a while there and we had reason to be optimistic about the future.
When the changes was coming, which also happened in Romania, Hungary, Poland, Czechoslovakia, and Germany, with important people like Lech Wałęsa and Vaclav Havel.
Yeah, at the time we really thought it was the beginning of the end and a start to genuine international co-operation, we may have been naive, but I still believe the majority of populations want what we nearly had and it's the leaders and greedy money men that spoil it.
That was no communism, but stalinism...
@@frankogravedigger Ähm... Das lag weniger daran, dass man für den Schulhofschläger Sympathien hegte, sondern mehr aus dem Schuldgefühl darüber, was wir dem Osten angetan haben, in der Nazizeit...
One of the best rock ballads of all time. For those of us who lived through this time there is probably no more meaningful song.
I find Panic in some of the oddest places... *wave*
@@Oedwak Hey ... I do end up in some unexpected comment sections :p ;) .
You speak for the human race during a certain time period?
What a narcissist.
@@MultiJfletch yup, thats me.
Yes, there is a lot : Pink Floyd for example
Your immediate reaction to this song, so beautiful and raw, is what we have all felt for decades. And here we are… right back in the same fire. It gives me hope that young people will take up the torch of peace from us old folks who once took that torch from the generations before us.
You are a young Polish girl, so you are one of the "children of the future who'll listen to the wind of change" that is mentioned in this song, and 33 years later we haven't learned to live together like brothers, why humans love to war that much? About the organization you're about to start, all I can say is that you have a really huge ❤. Hugs from the Dominican Republic
I was a 20yr old soldier in the American Army stationed W. Germany when the wall came down. This song always gets to me
I was over there because my dad was stationed in West Germany when the wall came down. This song was EVERYWHERE. I was only 9, so I'll admit some of the significance was lost on me. But I knew I loved the song. I know the song is MASSIVE in Germany. Might as well be their anthem at this point.
Same. 1AD.
Same. 8th ID. Less than two years later, my base was shut down, as a direct result of the USSR's fall, and I PCS'd stateside to Planet Ord.
Part of 3rd Armored stationed in Gelnhausen from 87-90. I will always be glad for seeing this moment in history and sad for how much of it was not followed up on.
I was 20 in 1990 and 33 years later it still makes me tear up a little
Me 10 years old same year
I did my military service in 1990, and I can still remember the feeling of joy and hope when the wall came down. This really became the anthem of that time.
Too bad they never got rid of the KGB, and now they are back in power again.
i was 10 when all that happened
25 at the time.
This song clearly means more to someone in Eastern European than here in North America. I have always loved the song and its meaning, but this made me appreciate it more ❤
Same here.
I think its something peculiar to English as a 2nd language in Central/Northern Europe.
Its something that does'nt translate for native speakers.
I understand your sentiment, but don’t forget where most North Americans ancestors come from. My grandmother was from Italy (during WW2) she met my grandfather who was an American soldier. I will never forget how hard she cried when the Berlin Wall was being destroyed. This song resonated with people across the world because of what it was addressing, which was the stains that remained from WW2.
too true.. 2005 , in a car driving through Poland at night with my Czech girlfriend and her two friends. This song comes on they all started singing with tears in their eyes. Once it had finished the car was silent for the next 15 or so mins with them absorbed in their own personal thoughts. It's a memory I will never forget, with beautiful friend whom I will always miss.
I am American and it hits me the same way.
I was a teenager when this song was released, and I remember the fall of the Berlin Wall. This song still brings me to tears, it was such a magical time then. Now I weep because we apparently haven't learned anything.
Assume that every next generation will be morons that were taught nothing and you'll never be surprised
Hi Adriana. I'm Brazilian and my paternal grandfather was Polish. I really liked your reaction to Wind Of Change, the Scorpions are very well known here in Brazil.
Dad born in Poland along with his siblings and parents. 1st Generation Polish American here. Thanks for the reaction! This one gets me in the feels.
Darlin', I was an American soldier during the cold war. I'm married to a Russian woman, the strongest most passionate woman I've ever known in all things. I'm glad that a young gal of the young generation got to feel the power of music of a generation during a time of great change.
Graduated High School in '91, one of our anthems here.. we truly thought peace was possible.
Polska jest dla świata przykładem tego, co może zrobić naród wyzwolony spod tyranii.
Definitely my grandfather is Armenian and me being British I feel her tears and completely understand
"Poland is an example to the world of what a nation liberated from tyranny can do."
There's something so powerful about a simple whistle in this song, just makes it hauntingly beautiful. Scorpions are one of my favorite bands from my childhood.
The SCORPION’s are one of my most memorable rock groups. In my Senior Year of High school we wore the CD’s out. I loved every song on that album 💿. They still sound INCREDIBLE. Excellent Choice. Thank you for taking the time out to react to this Amazing Rock Group and their Epic Music 🎼. 🙆🏻♀️🎼✨🎸💫🎶 N. California
For those who didn't grow up with an East and West Germany or Cold War, watching that Berlin Wall fall, felt like the world got better in an instant and this song floods back those memories is the most profound way. How far we've fallen from those days.
Watching you react to the Scorpions, a German band, brought tears to my eyes. With the history of WWII and Germany and Poland, just goes to show, that with all the things that have happened and are happening in the world, there is one thing that draws us all together, our love of music.
The Poles are not that fond of Russia, either.
Very emotional her reaction!
I understand you very well!!!
I'm teacher of Geography in Brazil, and know about the suffering of the polish people during cold war.
One hello from Brazil!!
I was stationed in West Germany from 87-90 and in the Gulf War when this song came out. I remember the wall coming down and being so optimistic.
Things now seem worse than ever, but this song still gives me hope.
God Bless humanity and their music..this is why I watch you because you get it. Some of us guys out here tear up too!
She even cries beautifully. Incredible.
It is truly beautiful to see how your generation, represented in you, is moved to tears, with music with messages as beautiful as this one. with what we grew up listening to. ❤️
Great song by Klaus,Rudolph and the rest of the band.May the winds continue blowing bringing peace to all.Thank you Adrianna,sending peace and love from the USA.
the Scorpions are one of best hard rock
bands to come out of Germany but this
song was one of their softer ones and
I'm really glad to see that you liked it
have a wonderful week Adrianna.
🎵🎶🎼🎄🎼🎶🎵
One of the best reactions to this song ,it is about peace,great reaction!!!
This is a amazing song with an incredibly relevant message in fact the whole album crazy world is a fantastic album . Crazy world was out in 1990 and when you look into their back catalogue they have been around since 1972 so a vast discography .
1990 crazy has nothing to today's technological police state.....
"Send Me An Angel" is also a really good ballad.
I served in the US Army, spent time in Poland, love your country
Its amazing and encouraging to to watch someone be able to connect to the emotions of a momentI experienced when I was your age, some 35+years ago. I was serving in the US Navy when this song was written (89) and still serving when this song was released world wide in '91. This song was like 'crack cocaine' at the time...Those of us who grew up during the last 20 years of the Cold War, under the threat of nuclear war, every day. WE could not get enough of this SONG...
It seems for every time humanity takes a step forward, we take a hundred steps back. Praying for peace, only God can save humanity from its own destruction. You are a light in this world, please don't change. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@roxannekabotsky2997 Jesus Christ is where my Faith and Hope lies...
Nie dziwi mnie Twoje wzruszenie Adrianno ponieważ piosenka traktuje o przemianach w związku radzieckim, końcu zimnej wojny i upadku muru berlińskiego a Polska miała z tym wiele wspólnego💪. Scorpions ma wieeeeele wspaniałych piosenek jak na przykład Still Loving You, Send Me An Angel, Rock You Like A Hurricane
Będę musiała posłuchać w takim razie ☺️🫶🏼✨
@@AdriannaReacts Zdecydowanie polecam
As a young teen in the U.S. in 1980 - I was aware of the Cold War and how we considered the Iron Curtain, but we still had great freedoms and it sometimes seemed so far away. But even I knew how the Poles really pushed back and started the change… 🇵🇱
@@AdriannaReacts❤❤😅 very good video grupo scopion🤘🎸😎i from chile😅
"I'm not surprised by your emotion, Adrianna, because the song is about the changes in the Soviet Union, the end of the Cold War and the fall of the Berlin Wall, and Poland had a lot to do💪 with it. Scorpions has a lot of great songs like Still Loving You, Send Me An Angel, Rock You Like A Hurricane"
I'm glad that you watched this...I first listened to this years ago.cant believe its over 30years old..this song really stirs you inside..you never get tired of this..
One of my favorite metal/rock bands ever. Listening since the 80's. I definitely remember when this song came out. Among the the most heart felt songs of all. Yep, that's about right. Great reaction.
This song will always have a place in my heart. I was a dependent of an active duty Marine at the time and I lived daily with the knowledge that if the balloon ever went up we were gone. A military base would assuredly been targeted by ICBMs. The fall of the Wall and this song erased that terror. Never in all my years did I ever think we'd face that type of crisis again.
And yet, this song stands as a testament to people's desire to live in peace and prosperity.
You can hear a song and like/love a song but you get a better perspective of the song when you see the music video to understand the song more so and love it even more. Great reaction! Subscribed!!🙏🏼🌹💕
The very first time I heard this was while watching a Filipino cover band in Singapore. I had been at sea so didn't get to hear it before that.
They killed it (including the whistle)
LOVE the Scorpions. I rock with them, but this my favorite song from them.

This songs soaring guitar pushes and pulls the walls around my emotional being, threatening to rip it down. It's one of my favorites.
this song still hits me in the feels, as it always has since it was released back in '90 😭
Scorpions are so good. This is probably their most beautiful song...and they have a good many. My two favorite albums of theirs are: Lovedrive __ Animal Magnetism. Saw them Live at US Festival '83 on my 21st B-Day. They were one of the best who performed Live that day, and there was a good lineup.
It is so sad. The Scorpions wrote this song to celebrate our coming together, with so much hope for the future.
And here we are 30 years later...
We were united for that time period
Bc of one sides hate in 2016, it divided the U.S. forever!
I've never seen your channel until right now.
I'd like to say 2 things if I may:
1. Your reaction to this song was completely normal. This is an extremely powerful song.
2. You should listen to their live version of this from the 2015 hellfest concert. Not only does the singer still sound absolutely amazing in his 70's, but the crowd interaction sends chills right up your spine.
Hopefully a new wind of change will blow strong in 2024. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
This song always catches me - but your reaction made me cry my eyes out. Bardo dziekuje! (Sorry, I don't have Polish letters).
I got out of the US Navy in 88, the year before the wall came down. I recall while in the Mediterranean seeing Soviet Sailors in Italy and just how depressed they all looked. This song and the video hold a special place in the hearts of so many. It was a victory and an outstretched hand.
wow - a great & a very understandable reaction. As as our leaders drive us to frustration while delivering their own unique power crazed version of the world order.
Please I humbly suggest 'Scorpions - Wind Of Change (Live At Hellfest, 20.06.2015)' for a slightly different perspective on the same track - please no shame in letting the tears flow as it is a very understandable reaction
All the promises this song made in the ‘90s are being broken as we sit here…
To my late Uncle Faron, this song will always remind me of your grad and how proud I was to see you accept your diploma. I miss you so much. Love you forever. 🥲💔
The timing of this song couldn't have been better. Released in Nov 1990, on the album entitled "Crazy World" (pretty fitting title for that time, as post-Cold War Europe was a mess) it came at a time when the Fall of the Soviet Union was in the air. The Berlin Wall fell a year before, in Oct 1989, and then the Soviet Union collapsed the next year in Dec 1991. I was a Senior in High School at this time, and was so hopeful about what the future would hold in the former Communist Block, but as Yeltsin's Reign in Russia came to and end with Putin taking over, that hope quickly faded even back then, because once a KFB agent, always a KGB agent. I tried giving Russia the benefit of the doubt as they were helping build and man the International Space Station, but with Putin's continued aggression into Chechnya, Georgia, and Ukraine, it's clear that Russia has not changed at all since the old days of the Soviet Union. The only real difference is that they aren't hard-core Communists anymore, and they're allowing religion, but other than that, they're still the same ol' Authoritarian Dictatorship that's Hell bent on re-establishing the Russian Empire.
There would be no war in Ukraine now if not for NATO and the US.
One of the best actual reactions to a song! Well done!
I was in germany serving from 86-88 in Nuremberg. I work along the German soldiers which i was very proud to do that. This song brought tears to my eyes and thanks for your great reaction.
I remember seeing this song performed when the Scorpions were in Moscow. I just recall how epic that was. A German band playing in a Russian venue. Seeing that, we all had such hope then.
One of the timeless elements of the song is that it never ends, the world keeps changing and people try to love each other and just live in peace.
I did my military service in the end of the 80s. Im sure this song means alot to all of my generation
I get shivers. I havnt heard this song in like 25 years :)
1:51 - 1:56 "That we could be so close, _like brothers_ "
This line always makes me sad - having lost my brother after he took his own life.
Colli ti fy mrawd 💔 1963 - 2023
Thank you to all who served past and present and thank you to those who died in combat.
I'm American and grew up in the 80's. This song gets me every time as it highlights many powerful world events to the most beautiful melody. I'm weeping with you. Beautiful reaction.
We have one man to thank for all of this!
He started fighting for justice and freedom!!
Lech Wałęsa....
Then the iron curtain began to break...
how hundreds of years ago when King Jan of Poland saved Europe by defeating the Turks in front of Vienna!
THANK YOU POLAND !!!!
greetings from Germany
No Poland ,No Europe ....never forget it ....!!!!!!!!!!
I served in the U.S. Navy on board the USS Enterprise. i love your reaction. It was beautiful.
Thank you from your touching reaction to this song. Yes, why dont we all people just get along. Why we fight.
The leaders of the world should listen this right now. If they see your reaction they would do better decisions i am sure.
I love you for that emotion . So glad to see I'm not th3 only one who is so worried bout all that's been going on around us .And this song will remind me that sadly nothing changed since , what ?, 1980 or so? I hope people will wake up . Finally!
I'm so happy to see young people listening to good music for a change
This one always brings back memories of optimism and hope. I watch reactions of it every so often just to remember that feeling, because things are now feeling very dark. wish I could get back that optimism.
I just subscribed and love Wind of Change. This song by the Scorpions is timeless. Thank you for your REACTION. - Bob
Какая прекрасная и чувствительная девушка)
My Oma and Opa ( grandparents) immigrated to the US from Germany.
I heard a lot of stories from them and this song always makes me remember them. ❤ I miss you Oma and Opa
I'll keep it simple. What a wonderful reaction to a wonderful song.
I was in Germany when the wall came down. It was a fascinating time to be there. That and they won the World Cup too.
Having lived through this period when I was in my early 30's, I remember watching the Berlin Wall getting demolished, and seeing how joyful the people were, regaining their freedom!
Yes, this song brings back a lot of memories.
A timeless song! beautiful job
Many millions of us around the world watched with great hope as history changed before our eyes. Thank you for recognizing the impact on the world from many of the film clips made before you were born.
You SO missed out, I saw the Scorpions 4-5 time live in concert in the 80's.....The music was GREAT but it was so much more than the music, it was like ..... I can't even put into words!? The 80's was the best time in music history!
The iconography presented in this video has much deeper meaning than what you can imagine. I remember much of this. The good and the bad.
True story. A few years ago I was at the Cinnamon Grand in Columbo, Sri Lanka and the guy in the lobby playing the grand piano was playing this. Its just amazing to me how far music culture travels.
It brings tears to my eyes as well.The day the wall came down.
Hi Adrianna, Beautiful ballad which you couldn't have got away from back in '90 played everywhere endlessly, It really captured the Zeitgeist of the time when there suddenly was a sense of real hope in the air with the collapse of the former U.S.S.R, Berlin Wall coming down, Imminent Independence of Ukraine etc and yes it's tragic to see what's happening now in Ukraine & Gaza/Israel, Anyway powodzenia! Jim, UK🇵🇱✌️🇬🇧X
Hello
I was 17 when the Berlin Wall fell, and I remember the video of a famous cellist, Mr Mstislav Rostropovitch, giving a recital in front of the wall. I also remember the deferlante of "Solidarność" in Poland and the work of "sapping" communism by Pope Jean-Paul II. A great moment in history which is the basis of this Hymn to Freedom by Scorpion.
Yours sincerely
Sébastien from France.
This is one of the most beautiful sonGs ever recorded.
I loved this song as a kid and never even understood what it was really about. Loved your reaction.
I was 19 when this was released. It was a beautiful song for a tremendous positive time for the world. Where did it all go wrong.
Was a changing time back then. You're so beautiful. If the world was filled with feeling people like you it would continue to be a better place for all. You touch my heart girl. Dogs are better than people. If I see a person mistreat a dog they'll regret it. More power to ya honey. Dogs give unconditional love. My little 2 lb'r turned 16 last month. He is a papered hairy human.
My U.S. Marine Brother, Szymon Gryniak and I used to drink beer and listen to this song over and over. Szymon grew up in Communist Poland. We went through Hell together in Iraq! He is okay and in Auroura, Illinois! We Always get tears when hearing this song! Poland is free and wonderful! I Love Dogs Also! ❤❤❤
Most reaction videos are not reactions at all... but you top the list of the best.. so raw.. you wear your heart on your sleeve!.. i noticed that at 2.27 and especially at 3:42 when he sings 'Let my Balalaika sing' you teared up.. was it the word Balalaika? I wonder?
The first concert I ever went to was in Rochester, NY. 1984. It was Bon Jovi opening for the Scorpions. Great concert. I was stationed in West Germany before the Berlin Wall came down. It's a shame that peace never seems to last.
Saw the same show in Lakeland , Florida that year !
I felt every one of your tears. Blessings to you!
What a beautiful reaction! I served in the U.S. Army with 2 tours of duty in Germany. During my 2nd tour, '87-'90, the wall came down. The joy that we saw from those who were finally free from the oppression of the Soviet Union was incredibly moving. One of your countrymen, Lech Wałęsa, was a true hero and was instrumental in helping Poland and the other Warsaw Pact nations gain your freedom. Keep up the great reactions and reviews!
What a beautiful and heartfelt reaction. Thank you so much.
I love that fact that You’re so emotional. You have a good heart.
I lived in West Germany as a child for awhile. When the wall came down I was back in the states, but I remember a young man on the news saying that he said to his mother the wall is down you can come see me now. Still gets to me.
Amazing reaction,thank you
This is the most beautiful and sincere reaction that I have seen. Most wouldn’t understand the history & the impact past, present, & future. So much peace and goodwill was achieved in those years.
As someone who grew up during the Cold War, served in the British Army - but remember clearly the day that the Berlin Wall fell. About a year later I made my first trip to Poland - a land that I now love, and have so many friends there! Please all leaders of the world, please just stop seeking more power through hatred and war, but through friendship and love... 😢
Another great reaction I can't until she does my recommendation Forest Gump 😊 I hope ur doing good friend
Masterpiece of scorpion song
I just fell ....Wow...And I always loved the Scorpions....
i was 21 when this song was released i cried then and still get chocked up now this hits home hard.
Today the Polish people are some of the freest people in the world. God bless Poland 🇵🇱 🙏 😊
It is a very soulful and meaningful song. Brings tears to my eyes as well.
