- Scorpion's new album Rock Believer - OUT NOW: scorpions.lnk.tt/RockBeliever
I've yet to hear Klaus Mein in an acoustic setting to showcase his phenomenal vocal talent until thousands of you have requested "Send Me An Angel." This version from Luxembourg City in 2002 is such a perfect accompanyment to the very limited exposure I've had to Scorpions so far, and lyrical messaging revolving around one's destiny is so keen!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Scorpions performing "Send Me An Angel" LIVE for the first time.

Performance at Luxembourge City, 2002

tferion
the voice from lower saxony, where you speak the real german without the dialect as these guys from Hannover, the capital of Lower Saxony, home of VW and the german freedom which has its foundation in the uprise and victory against the roman empire in the dark, deep and swampy forrests where 1 / 3 of the roman empires army has been defeated to the last men.
The united free german tribes fought their battle in their homeland lead by chieftain who had been trained in the roman army and had become a roman officer before he turned back to his roots to free the parts north of the rhine from roman occupation. That battlefield has been located again after it had been lost in 2000 years but back then in late 1980s another officer found the spot, this time one of the britsh army searching for coins and the myth.
Part of the heritage that the Scorpions share - deep desire for freedom and a burning heart. Watch them live and you will understand that, and if you can watch them in Hannover , their hometown on a lazy hot summer evening and visit the Maschsee afterwards.
You've covered a lot of Scorpions songs. But I think you have missed a huge piece of the band. The original, founding member, Rudolf Schenker is an amazing musician and singer. Klause gets all the credit (which is well deserved), but they have someone else who is an A-list rock vocalist as well. A multi-instrumentalist (though mostly rhythm guitar), a power-house of a vocalist, the main song-writer for the band, and he deserves a lot more credit.
Check out the MTV Unplugged version of "Love is the answer". It's a different sound than what you might expect from Scorpions, but it's pretty amazing. His voice is a bit warmer, deeper, a little more gravel in it... You have barely explored the tip of a pretty massive iceberg with this band. There is so much more to uncover.
Do you know Clause blew his voice out. He was told he could never sing again. I saw his dream come true, play in a stadium in America. I saw it, summer strut, the best performance by far compared to the other groups. Iron Maiden, Foreigner, Lover boy and Scorpions. Rudolph was incredible, Memory burn .
klaus was 54 in this performance and still has a great voice
I saw him at age 70-something and he was STILL amazing.
My nephew took his life. This song was played at his service. Every time I hear it I cry my eyes out. RIP little dude. 😢
Germany creates many things of unsurpassed quality, beauty and perfection and the Scorpions are at the very top of that list.
To me, Klaus is the best rock ballad singer ever. His voice is so pure and emotional. Makes you feel it.
and Don Dokken!!
i think he's one of the best singers in rock or hard rock/metal overall. just where his center range is so forward and super powerful, not to mention his insane range during his whole career. just if i had to pick between all the most celebrated greats in rock he'd be hard to beat and easily in top less than a handfull.
@@chickenbeek couldn't have said it better! I think he really is underrated when it comes to discussions about the best hard rock/heavy metal singers of all time. He nearly never gets mentioned
Ronnie James Dio, Rob Halford, and Sebastian Bach are all more gifted
@@Vtwin60 Rock BALLAD singer. Dio and Rob weren't known for ballads, but Bas was good, he just didn't do it as long as Klaus has.
My brother loved this band, went to many concerts. This song makes me sad because he passed away in 2023. Always reminds me of him!
May your brother rest in peace and this song is a beautiful one to remember him ❤
Thank you
"He's going full rainstick" is a phrase I never thought I would hear in my life.
The best
Klaus has an incredible voice and what I've always loved most is that you can hear his German accent very subtly. Especially when he says "the".. Hands down one of the greatest vocalists in rock history.
His accent makes him so unique, personnaly I really like "Blackout" (the song) for many reasons but one of them is clearly the way he says "black", that's so German lol. I am from Alsace, France (near the German border) and these guys are gods to us. People from my region have a kinda german accent and my biology teacher used to say "black" in the exact same way, I found it so funny lol.
Amen
Absolutely!!! Klaus is the man! I am German as well and I do sound a lot like him when I sing. I put out a solo album but there are no vocals as I feel that the world does not need two Klaus singers. It is totally instrumental. I have been playing guitar for over 40 yrs and tried to do something as unique as possible. I created my own sound and I think you might like it. Check out Daniel D. Jenks---Fractures in time on youtube. Leave a comment. Let me know what you think.
I honestly think English not being his first language is part of why he sings so well
I met my husband when we'd were 19, we had a baby, we split, married others for 20 years didn't see each other. Reconnected at 42 and he said everyday he listened to this song thinking of me and we played it at our wedding. We were together 8 years and her passed away last year. While he was in a coma i played it over and over for him so he knew i was there.
my gosh, stay strong Dawn! hope you can get through this tragic!
❤️
Thank you
So romantic❤️ my Song and my first kiss of my wife was 1989 Alice Cooper with Poison and she died 1999 with a age of 28 years we had 5 chlderens together i miss she so much 😢😍
Nobody cares, life sad stories. We are here for the beauty of music, plenty of professionals out there to deal with your luggage!
my wife and I just saw the Scorpions in Las Vegas, Klaus is now 75 years old and just had major spine surgery and the band and Klaus were still absolutely amazing, was it the best concert ever... no that title is still held by Rush or maybe Queen but this concert was still top 10 and if ranked by age... definitely top 3
I was so lucky to be in Berlin when the Scorpions played at the Opera House with the Berlin Philharmonic. I was still in school back then, and our teacher said we had to visit a "cultural event". A friend of mine and I asked him if the Scorpions would count as such, and he said yes. So, we got some money from the school that we would normally would have spent on theatre tickets and were able to afford the tickets for the concert. It was awesome, and I'll never forget it!
Now that's a cool teacher
Love how the scorpions count as a cultural event lol…SCOPIONNNNSSS!
Money well spend 😊😊👍👍👍
Mega vocalist of the highest order
I’m glad I grew up with all this great music from the 60s to90s
As a German im so proud of the Scorpions ..because they are from here
Klaus is absolutely an awesome vocalist. Consistently great, even after damage and surgery. And as for Scorp's...those guys just don't know how to write a bad song.
I am German, and I just realize how GOOD they are
He voice is angelic. He could stand in the corner of a cathedrals hall and if he starts singing it would automatically draw you inside to find out what is happening to you.
I heard this song after I met my 2nd wife my wish came true I found my angel. Thanks scorpions may they rock on. 😊
The best german band ever.
Klaus always had a unique voice. It's really what I liked about their music. We just saw them in concert about a month ago. He can still belt it out even at 74 years old!
I seen them in Seattle last month and they were off the charts amazing. I seen them for the first time in 1980 and they were better today than they were then. The light show was one of the best I have seen!
@@LesSmith45 *saw
I am 62 and have always sounded like him when I sing. I am German so go figure. I play guitar and did not do any vocals out of respect for Klaus. The world does not need two of him and he is better than me anyway. My solo album is a guitar instrumental. It is called Daniel D. Jenks--Fractures in time. I have been playing for over 40 yrs and tried to bring something new to the guitar arena. Check it out. I think you will like it.
I'm a straight metal head but the Scorpions are one of my pleasures. If I'm ever in my feels the Scorpions are where I go.
Klaus is an absolute monster vocalist. So underrated. And he's been so good for so long. I'd love to see you react to Holiday. It's fantastic vocally, and basically 2 songs in one.
you are a true Scorpions fan!! I love Holiday!!!
This song honestly saved my life too many years ago.
They have been making music, for over 50 years!!!!! Not many GREAT bands can say that.....amazing band.
Scorpions were my first concert, 1985 @ Cow Palace in San Francisco. (An up and coming Bon Jovi, opened the show.....ticket price: $15!!!!!!!!)
Yes, this is maybe the best example of how angelic Klaus voice can be. That was 20 years ago, when he had been around the music business for some 30+ years. Now let´s think about that for a while. I have this whole performance as a dvd, one of my best purchases ever.
This acoustica album is timeless ❤
Klaus has a one of the unique clear voice of rock singers! Lovely forever 🤟🏻
He could sing this in any language and I'd still be as emotional
Every heavy band can learn from this. This is how you acoustify your songs. It's brand new.
In my late teens, I would listen to a lot of hard rock, far too loudly. My mom, (God rest her soul) would always try to find redeeming qualities in whatever I was listening to, at any given time. Klaus and The Scorpions were always a standout to her. She grew to love the ballads, and even some of the rockers. I recall with much fondness and love, her numerous insightful critiques on Klaus' voice, which helped me appreciate music with much greater depth, than I did, at the time. Music touches us all in such unique ways. She also really appreciated Dio too, which puzzled me, at the time.
One more German singer I love and have seen live in concert!
3:22 Elizabeth's reaction. Shivers. Wonderment. Adoration. You have caught Klaus fever.
Master vocalist!
Been a SCORPION Fan since 80love them..never seen this ..they are one of the best .......and you are the best reaction analysis person .love the show...Thanx..I still recommend GREAT WHITE ...THE ANGEL SONG
Klaus has an extraordinary voice. As a rock singer I've tried to cover the Scorpions and he has a difficult voice to replicate.
I'd love to see you react to "Always Somewhere" from the same live album 😉
The studio version of the song is a much more simply arranged acoustic rock ballad. The fact that this one has a female choir, string section (and a cello solo), then all of a sudden it turns into a jam session with a jazz piano solo, proves one thing: when you have a good song, any arrangement works. That's why symphonic orchestras can cover 8-bit music from old-school Nintendo games or extreme metal bands can cover Britney Spears and it just WORKS. Good music is good no matter what it sounds like.
This is one of my “close your eyes and lose yourself” songs. So beautiful. The instruments, vocals, lyrics. Incredible.
Just watch the whole concert, youll love it!
Klaus is one of the greats. Right up there with Dio, Halford, Tate, and Dickinson.
So true!
Absolutely! Klaus is definitely one of the legends
This is one song by the Scorpions me and my wife Really enjoy.
I've seen them twice.
My wife never heard of them until I introduce her to the Scorpions.
Now she LOVES The Scorpions
One of there Best songs.
But the Scorpions have alot of Great songs..❤❤
His voice has always been so strong and yet sweet at the same time. Such control and sustain, one of the best voices in rock. Still going strong to this day.
Klaus is phenomenal.....he has no equal
Fun fact, while the Metallica was fighting against internet downloads (eDonkey, etc) Scorpions requested statistics of "where our music is most downloaded?" (made a lot more money just by give concerts there)
"Always Somewhere" from this same live performance is amazing.
We just saw Scorpions again earlier this year at their Las Vegas residency and for 73 years old Klaus Meine still delivers. They were phenomenal!
The man on the keyboard is Christian Kolonovits he is a austrian composer, conductor and record producer
I remember being teenager in the 80s, most of us had cassette with Scorpions slow numbers. It'd always come handy during parties :)
The Scorpions are so mechanical in every performance. I mean that in the best way possible. They’re just a machine. Every part does its job perfectly.
The studio version is definitely more mystical sounding it is so beautiful you're going to love it
Klaus's vocals were amazing for this entire concert. How can anyone who lost their voice in 1981 then had 2 vocal surgeries sound that good?
Klaus is a gifted artist❤️🔥
I went to three of the Scorpions concerts in the 80's and they ROCK!
Masterpiece ever. Greatness
Klaus is simply an angel of a presence. Have you seen the video of him singing Ave Maria in concert, fully in Spanish and with such passion!? Mind blowing!!!
Is difficult to recommend something by Scorpions.... They have so many great songs and Klaus has such an iconic voice.... I would say just sit and listen to their entire discography
World Wide Live album is badass. Start there and get ready for some really freaking awesome stuff 👏.
@@fernandovega5722 Then after that listen to Live Bites! I dare say that one is almost better
Absolutely! Seen them in 1984" Love at First Sting tour in U.S. won tickets for Rudolf Schenker's B-Day at a bar in Georgetown,1989 Monsters of Rock, then took my youngest to see them in Columbus, Ohio, on a 50-year anniversary tour. They are my favorite band and still upset how they get looked over in Rock n Roll Hall of Fame!! Let them in they deserve it.
@@logankipfmiller2044 Pretty much anything from their 70s era is killer. We'll Burn the Sky is probably the greatest ballad ever. Think she should give it a try.
This is one of the few times when the live version improves on the album version.
My favorite band of all-time. The only band older still touring is The Rolling Stones as Scorpions are 57 years old this year forming in 1965. Incredible ! I treasure every year that Klause and Rudolph are still on this planet.
They really are, whos better???
Favorite Scorpions song ever
Prolly best version of the song. Absolutely stunning performance.
I would sit on the beach at night and listen to this song and Winds of Change at their height of popularity. Such greatness. Always love watching you. Thanks!!!!
Klaus has one of the best voices in all of rock. Still does. He also has one of those unique voices you can instantly tell who he is by a mere word. The Scorpions will forever be my favorite band. They're one of those once in a lifetime groups.
I liked this version, but for me I think that the original has more of an "emotional" impact. The way Rudolf Schenker and Mathias Jabbs play the guitars on the original is incredible. You can just feel the emotion they all put into the song.
I agree, this is a beautiful version, but the original version hits deeper.
The original's intro is textbook "heaven on earth"
So much class and coolness. That’s the Scorpions!
This whole concert was incredible. All acoustic. Holiday was the most fun in my opinion.
Is on Portugal...Saint George castel, Lisbonne...
I agree. I just purchased the DVD on eBay and I just can't quit playing it. (not that I'm trying). It's just amazing to me to see that many talented people in one place and all of them just having a blast just doing what they do! It really comes across in the DVD.
@@anameireles2118 Recorded at Convento do beato in lisbon 2001, not Saint george.
His voice is amazing in this song . Reminds of his early days .
This has to be one of the best ballads ever written by a rock band, and Klaus is just phenomenal!!
Yes more scorpions! This made my day!
In my opinion there are some singers in the world, if they are singing you aren't hearing it only with your ears. You also listen it with your heart and Klaus Meine is on of those singers.
I'm so glad to see that you picked this version, probably the best one out there. I have to mention that here Klaus is 54 years old, but you can't really notice any signs of vocal aging! My recommendation for your next reaction would be 'We' ll burn the sky' in Sun Plaza Hall in 1979, outstanding performance!
The other live versions that I selected were dubbed, so. I truly wanted a live performance that wasn't overlayed with a studio version. This one is utterly AMAZING!
Sometimes some songs just don't sound right until you're older and really understand the weight of them, even if you wrote them.
@@TheCharismaticVoice the scorpions do a cover of The Rolling Stones song Ruby Tuesday. Klaus really shines in this song. Although to be fair Klaus really shines every time he sings.
your picture is maybe the best album cover EVER ! By the famous Austrian artist Helnwein.
@@TheCharismaticVoice his voice really is something, made even more particular by the differentiation in the vowels from him being German. Especially when he sings words like "way" "here i am" etc. almost seems like his whisper voice transforms towards the more nasal on these sounds. Been a fan since 1981....
We'll Burn The Sky Live version... Absolutely love Scorps from 70's era.
I'm so happy you came back to Scorpions I have never seen this version of the song Klaus Meine is one of the greatest singers of all time you should check out the original version of the song plus there's so many more songs you could analyze like rock You Like a Hurricane and No One Like You
One of the best classic rock bands ever
I'm a total layman, but what I find fascinating about Klaus Meinl is that he is phenomenal at being emotive and getting the message across, although - per se - I am not the biggest fan how his voice sounds (compared to other great singers) - but he it is always joyful to listening to him. Scorpions success is definitely based on his consistent high quality output. Kudos
It amazes me that when I think of scorpions I think of hard rock like “rock me like a hurricane” and you seem to find every ballad in the world. The 80s we’re about fun and excitement. Grunge was about angst and sadness and despair. Power ballads were a unique part of the music genre.
Brilliant singer , I’ve been listening to him for 30 years great band 😊
Klaus is one of the greatest singers of all times. Scorpions are so versatile in their music that make them one of the greatest bands. The Athens acoustic concert is also marvelous.
What has always made the Scorpions and Klaus Meine such an Iconic rock band is their ability to belt out the smoothest ballads that will have your girlfriend melting in a puddle one moment and then turn right around and kick the door in with some searing guitar riffs, drums and wicked vocals to bang your head with the baddest heavy metal bands! So grateful to have grown up with this band and even more fun live!
You hopefully will cover some of their heavier Rock Playlist and also enjoy Klaus as a1. Bad Boy Running Wild!
In fact that or any of these songs will work 2. Lovedrive. 3. No one Like You
4. Dynamite 5. Blackout 6. The Zoo
7. Another Piece of Meat 8. Rock You Like a Hurricane
Hope to hear you enjoy and critique Klaus in any of their harder rock songs!
Thank you
Acoustica was my first Scorpions album and I still listen to it 20+ years later.
This acoustic was recorded in Portugal and the whole concert is fantastic. ALWAYS SOMEWHERE's version was perfect. A bonus is the participation of the beautiful Romanian cellist Ariana Arcu.
I remember slow dancing with the girls in high school when this song came out. this is a great live version but the studio/video version is more haunting and simple (less instruments) makes the hairs on the back of yur neck stand up more for some reason.
Elisabeth u should also listen to the studio version and while yur at it grab Kirk and have a slow dance with him too.
I love this idea. Kirk will resist. . . but I think he'll do it!
He sounds like an angel
I was at this concert! I can not even explain how well and how much thought was behind this performance! I've attended their concerts before, but this one was amazing!!!! My favorite song of the concert was "In trance". There was a light issue during the performance, they kept playing, and they played it again in order to get recorded correctly.
The music with Uli Roth was outstanding. My favorite album is "Made in Japan". But this song is also very impressing.
Klaus is just amazing.
One overlooked awesome Scorpions song is "Lady Starlight". It's perfect for this time of year. It's a must react song.
My favorite Scorpions song. So beautiful. ❤
I have had the pleasure of spending one night listen to Klaus and the Scorpions perform live. His voice is so good that you feel more like you are in the studio and not a 10,000 seat concert venue.
Check for a message from TominConcord.
Ahh, perfect Choice. I love them since the Seventies. The Best "non English Band" ever. They are from Hannover Germany. Saw them LIVE. One of the best 2 Hours in my Life ever. Klaus Meine, such a Talent, if it is Hardrock, Love and Sentimental Songs - he can do all to Perfection. Thank you for Reaction to something "Out of the Box"
Thanks to Rudolph Shenker for putting together such an amazing group of talented artists 🎨. I really 💜 this band. Can never say enough about them.
Definitely one of my favourite songs by the Scorpions. It feels so...spiritual, for lack of a better word. Not necessarily religious, but spiritual.
This song says "send me an angel", but the angel is who are singing. Klaus singing is like listening to an angel. pefect.
As a huge fan of the Scorpions (and your channel), I was really hoping you would get around to Send Me An Angel. Looking forward to it.
Yay!
As a guy battling anxiety and depression, this song hits hard...
I grew up listening to the Scorpions in the early 70’s all the way through to their newest release in 2022! It’s safe to say they’re one of the best bands ever to walk the planet! You could spend months listening to and analyzing their sound and musical changes through a 50 year period - and you would enjoy every moment of it!!! Thank you!
Always loved the Scorpions. Never heard this version. Wow! So beautiful. Great arrangement. Klaus is a true artist. Love you Elizabeth!
This song is a greatest masterpiece of all time. Perfect harmony, perfect melody, perfect voice and ideal interweaving of all tools into a single whole. Perfect beauty.
Klaus absolutely nails that first chorus. Incredible lift plus the vibrato is perfection
Scorpions song Daddy's Girl is a haunting song. Don't know if this channel would be willing to cover it given the song's subject matter. It's both beautiful and horrifying.
I saw the SCORPIONS at the top of the bill live in 82-83. With Iron Maiden supporting. Who stole the show.
Definitely top three live bands I have seen.And I have seen over thirty bands live.
Excellent live bands!!!
Glad to see Scorpions back on TCV. A great ballad. Always Somewhere from the same concert or the song Holiday would be great one to do next. Or if you want to go heavier check out either The Zoo, No One Like, Rock You Like a Hurricane or Big City Nights.
So many good songs to get to. Next year, FOR SURE!
After all the ballads I think it's time for metal singer Klaus. How about In Trance, Wacken 2006. A very special performance, featuring both Uli Roth and Michael Schenker.
Yay! Scorpions! Absolutely recommend The Zoo - Berlin 1990! Or 'Born To Touch Your Feelings' - I personally love the original one from 'Taken By Force' released 1977. Unfortunately there's no acceptable live version available, only a still life of the album cover is shown in the YT video. But the interpretation is much more emotional than the MTV unplugged one, you find as top search result.
@@TheCharismaticVoice You cant run out of good Scorpions songs, dont think I have heard a bad one, ever.
I'll add a thumbs-up for each one of those recommendations!
