The Scorpions is a metal band founded in Hanover, Germany in 1965 with a legacy of great 1980s metal songs. The Scorpions have had a surprisingly long and storied career that has spanned decades, and they experienced a pivotal time in Germany as communism rose and fell in the region and changes took hold in Europe.
The Scorpions was founded in the mid-1960s, but their popularity was felt in the 1980s. The band is versatile, and their sound is unique. The band's most famous songs are Rock You Like a Hurricane and Winds of Change. The Scorpions broke into the mainstream including MTV play when they released "Love at First Sting", and their songs are still played on classic rock and 80s stations. The band got their big break when they moved to Mercury Records, and the rest is history.
To me, The Scorpions is a quintessential 1980s hair-metal band. They had their most famous releases in the mid-1980s, and their music was on the radio. Their song "Winds of Change" is one of my favorites that highlights the end of communism and the fall of the Berlin Wall. Their live shows are incredible, and they can be seen on video compilations and YouTube.
