Scorpions are inarguably the most influential German hard-rock band of all time. The Hanover-formed group have earned this tag from sheer longevity—guitarist/vocalist Rudolf Schenker founded the troupe in 1965, with vocalist Klaus Meine joining five years later—and for cementing heavy metal’s global popularity with incisive songwriting. The fist-pumping 1984 anthem “Rock You Like a Hurricane” was a dramatic antidote to sleazy hard rock, while the 1991 worldwide hit “Wind of Change” is a towering power ballad inspired by the major political shifts happening in the soon-to-be-former Soviet Union that also resonated with other seismic movements, including the fall of the Berlin Wall. Scorpions’ initial attention came mainly in Germany, but support from MTV led to U.S. success starting in the early ’80s, as LPs such as 1982’s Blackout and 1984’s Love at First Sting (thanks to unrelenting singles like “No One Like You” and “Big City Nights”) connected with heavy-music fans. Although the band’s lineup experienced many changes over the years, Meine and Schenker have been steady presences, steering Scorpions through world tours and studio albums while preserving the group’s ability to tap into deeper wells of emotion, as on 2020’s stripped-down, inspirational “Sign Of Hope.”Rock You Like A Hurricane

The band has released thirteen consecutive studio albums that were in the top 10 in Germany, one of which reached No. 1, as well as three consecutive albums that were in the top 10 in the Billboard 200 in the United States. Their latest studio album, Rock Believer, was released in February 2022.
Scorpions are estimated to have sold over 100 million records around the world, making them one of the best-selling hard rock and heavy metal bands.
One of their most recognized hits is "Wind of Change" (from Crazy World), a symbolic anthem of the political changes in Eastern Europe in the late 1980s and early 1990s and the fall of the Berlin Wall, and it remains as one of the best-selling singles in the world with over 14 million copies
Two of the songs on their ninth studio album Love at First Sting, "Rock You Like a Hurricane" and "Still Loving You", are regarded as some of the most influential and popular works, both in heavy metal music and among rock ballads, defined as "rock anthem"[11] and "a true hymn of love"
