![SCORPIONS [ BIG CITY NIGHTS ] LIVE,2006](/img/1.gif)
I was in Sea Bright, NJ at The Peninsula House beach club where part of this video was shot. The brunette shooting pool in the beginning of the video took me upstairs to meet the band, and they couldn’t have been any cooler. They took pictures, signed autographs and drank beer and let me hang for an hour like I was one of the guys (even though I was merely a 17 year old fan). Some of the best guys and best memories of my life.
WOW!
But It was shot in Cali...wtf
I think that brunette is the drummer’s wife
Cool story man! What an experience.
@@johnburkhardt462 Yup! Wife at the time, Tammy Ventrella.
So blessed to of been a teenager in the 80’s. A great time to be alive.
1980s = One of the greatest times to be alive.
2020s = Also one of the most incredible times to be alive. We’re bearing witnes to the collapse of the deep state. 💪🇺🇸🧂🧂🧂
You dam right 🙏 these kids these days don't know what it is to have fun and party. To many phones.
You're goddamn well right about that. 🤘
i wish i was born in the 80's fuck my generation
Amen my friend, you echo my sentiments exactly. (Are you Steve Elliot from Def Leppard
I believe that somewhere in the world, there are people who feel the same emotions that I feel when I listen to masterpieces like this song.
Right there with you. This song and video sums up the energy of the 80s in one shot. Lots of memories come flooding in every time I watch this.
Right here. Greetings from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Nauseous ? lol
born in the wrong era.
Ou yes ! "Big City Nights" are bending time and space :)
The 80's, I Lived It, I Loved It, I Miss It. (In August I'll be 68 and if I had one wish, I'd wish I could go back and relive the years 1978-1989 over and over for eternity.)
Well said bro. Im with ya.
Make room for me too.
You have some awesome memories. Yes they were the best thing I believe. I’m in the yeah bracket born.
in june i have receive my 57 and you are not alone with your wish .
Right behind you brother. I’m 66…..
Todays youth really missed out … 80s and 90s were the best.
i'm not lol
tell me about it. youth today: terrible music, no social life (killed by social media), no adventure, all the materialism. i know because i'm one of them
80's and 70's*
60s were a great time for music Stones, Who Alman Brothers and many more as well , other than Viet nam which sucked
Man i wish i was living in the 80s, im a drummer myself and quite young and i love thrash metal and all kinds of rock. And now i realise that 80s whould've been the time of my life as a drummer but now it feels like its not the same.
Kid in the '70s, teen in the 80s, what a time to be alive, some of the best concerts and music.
REALTALK, SAD FOR ME😢
Back when men had BALLS!
Was 18 in 81 and seen a lot of just wicked concerts. Best years ever...
Me too!!
Loved the bands from my teenage years.
The 80's were there Best....Saw I Scorpions with Iron Maiden now 35 years later saw them in Chicago one last time. The day these bands retire will be very sad....they just don't make music like this anymore. Thank You Scorpions for all the Great Concerts.
steve monti scorpions won’t retire until they’re all dead trust me. And that won’t happen for a long time. I’m 15 and will probably be able to go to one of their shows someday.
A-M-E-N! In my opinion, the '80s WERE, and ALWAYS WILL BE, the "PINNACLE OF CIVILIZATION!" Why everything "went down or downhill" in the '90s is ANYONE'S guess.
@@AngelofAnguish
90s grunge was the start of the downfall. 2000's was worse. There are now some potential bands around. Let's keep hope alive!!
Nothing beats out numbers of the beast
@@richardlacey4923
😘😘😘
I pray every day and wish to return to this time in this Scorpions' video. 🙂
Never comeback that era...😢
I'll join you.
I'll join you.
Time machine, please.
What Up Jeff!
Your comment has had me thinking for the past two weeks. What an era of amazement! As I am an old man (born in '71), this depicts the time of celebratory being. I've not seen a time of such equalization since! WOW!
Scott Carter You're not old.
@@MidosujiSen I was rocking the Scorpions in my early 30s and I am 68,,,now that's old !
No shit huh lol
Call me. We can arrange something
These guys f-ing killed it. God does todays music suck!
It really really does doesn't it
@@edwardscott46
Yes it does!!! But there are some great up and coming bands working hard to keep rock alive💙❣
The World sucks these days.
Ahhh, man I miss the good times associated with this music. No one acting all Hard or drama filled. Just enjoy the moment and live to the fullest. Long Live The 80's rock!
underrated comment,im from this era...i agree
Very well put 👍🤘
It is nearly impossible to describe being on my 20's in the 80s and the SCORPS being my all time fav rockers. Saw them 3 times in Calif. Fresno, Oakland, and Orange co/Irvine. Seeing Klaus belt out awesome lyrics and Mattias smile and SHRED with Rudolf the best Rock Rhythm guitarist is like being on the best drug induced euphoria u can imagine. I am blessed beyond belief to be alive during the 80s. The memories, the girls, the drugs, the live concerts. I will never forget these highlife years. Long live rock and the SCORPS.
1986 a great time to be young and alive in America!
In every free part of the world, really
@@enasallaleon7496
you're correct, when you're young its all good!
the women were so beautiful, hardly any fake body parts or face enhancements, not covered in tattoos, 100% women
This was the 1980s. Things were different then!:)
Wow, People having fun, the 80s are far cry from the sad mentality of today.
the drugs were cleaner
The MUSIC was better!!
Yeah, we can thank Nirvana for that.
There are two great Scorpions albums of that era: “Blackout” and “Love at the first sting”. Neither before nor after were even close
Scorpions 🦂
I Hope one day they'll make a movie abt the scorpions
Yassss
No cell phones. Everything in the 80s was burned into our memory for eternity. Miss the 80s!!!!!!
We were Blessed to have lived the 1980's !!!!!!
One of the greatest bands of all time.
Top 5.
LMAO 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
80s Will ALWAYS BE THE BEST AND ALWAYS WILL BE
ALWAYS........
@@timmyharden4304 1984
For me one of the best bands of ever ! Real talent, great songs, excellent live performances !!!
Music like this I truly miss
@@bobbeezel2593Scorpions 🦂
This song kicks ass and I can't wait to see scorpions live in concert in 2023
I remember in the early-to-mid nineties how there was this nagging feeling in the back of my mind that said that we had essentially left the best decade of our lives behind.
The 80's were full of debauchery and skirt chasing. The 90's brought Sex Trophies and the responsibilities they produced. I'd do the 80's again!
I'm only 10 and i love all of the 80's music. Bless my parents
Fast Cars, Rock Stars, and Fast Women 🤘🏻 The Best of Times!
La mejor época de mi vida
@@javierpasquariello8227 it really was 😉
Matthias and Rudolf have written some of the sexiest guitar riffs in the history of classic rock! Amazing duo.
Another thing I like about their style is that their songs are full of those small, "mean" licks during the verses. Basically in every verse of the song you can hear some different new lick, and this applies to all of Scorps' songs! This adds so much to the songs. Amazing, simply amazing talent from these guys.
Been a fan for years now, and I think I'm not that good with words to describe the feeling that overwhelms me when I hear some of my favorite songs by them.
I know exactly what you're talking about :)
Nonmewon
I love bands that have twin attack guitar riffs.
"Lovedrive" ,"Is there anybody There?", "Another Piece Of Meat",
"Holiday", "In Trance" I could go on......😍💋👢
It's amazing the songs that the music is credited to Rudolph.
Man the 80's were FUN🤘🏼
Sure was.... I was there....Lived it and Loved it!!!
Yes they were
Totally.
Yes, drugs, misogyny, violence, racism, bullying, poverty... VERY FUNNY :)
@@mcxandy6003 because that doesn't exist today right!
Those were the days!!! Being a teenager in the mid 80's... just words can't express!! Awesome and meeting my teenage girlfriend at the Scorpions World Wide live Tour Movie in 1985!!! I wish the younger people now could have experienced what it was like living those times!!! Long live the 80's!!!
what a solo by Rudolf Schenker 🦂
This tour was the Scorps at their best. They always had great energy and sounded phenomenal. Not sloppy live, that was for sure.
YUP, they were the best ive ever heard live , definitely not just a studio creation like most bands
I saw them in 83
Wow! There's enough electricity in that crowd to power a large city!
I think it's fair to say there will never be any job cooler then being an 80's rock star......damn.
Absolutely indisputable.
@@wayne6777Scorpions 🦂
@@garycarr3857 🤘👌👍
If the decadent 80s could be in 1 video, this is it.
I’m only 20 but ima a classic rock addict. Always have been. I was born in the wrong time and in my opinion Scorpions are one of my favorite bands and probably one if not the most underrated bands of all time
Sou jovem fui criada ouvindo músicas antigas eu gosto muito
Wow aren't you so special and quirky 🤪
The war was in phillspine
@@kiolube Are you ok?
The band is fairly popular, but it’s their non-hit songs that are underrated. This song is better than Rock You like A Hurricane in my honest opinion
That was the song that made me fall in love with Rock n Roll as teenager in the 80's ...I still hold that feeling, the goosebumps, I mean....I still can feel EVERYTHING! I got this record from my uncle for X mas back then 1985, it changed my life FOREVER ! Scorpions always gonna be one The Best rock bands EVER ! The years has pass and they STILL GOT IT ! Long life !
😢 Sad Scorpion news...
Farewell James Kottack, drummer for the cosmos.
Long live Rock N Roll ❤
Saw them twice, the first time was the "Love at First Sting" tour. AMAZING live band! Still jamming in 2024!
Music from my teen years. We all used to rock out to Scorpions on our Sony Walkmans back then.
I remember once when I jogged from Hayward to Oakland California and back in Converse All Stars with a Sony Walkman and this album on cassette and Bad Companies, Bad Company album on cassette as I was jogging with my waist mounted neoprene Walkman holder.
@@davemoss9505 that’s so cool to hear man! i’m from Hayward🤘🏼 my dad raised me on this stuff! He graduated from Moreau in ‘85
Damn! You can tell these dudes had FUN!! Great tunes, HOT CHICKS! And after parties that are legend today! Time machine anyone?
🤟😃🤟🎸🎸🎸
I have a tardis.
Quite likely ONE of the best guitar duos of the late 70's and 80's. Talk about complimentary playing.
@@rikavalos Absolute German Metal Precision. I lived in the country and couldn't wait for Big City Nights! Soaring riffs!
The Shankner’s Rocked👍🏻
I agree, but why have you emphasized the word "one", that seems a bit odd?
@@Hologhoul Why odd? There are several that are amazing in my opinion - Wilton/DeGarmo, Tipton/Downing as other examples for instance, but there are many others. Again, in my opinion.
@@rikavalos I was thinking you meant "one of THE" best duos. But anyway, I'll also add in Warren Di Martini and Robbin Crosby. And obviously Angus and Malcolm Young.
First song my Guitar teacher taught me. 21 years ago, RIP Steve Danielsen
late 70's through early 90's was the best time
Yes it was!
"Big City Nights"
When the daylight is falling down into the night
And the sharks try to cut a big piece out of life
It feels alright to go out to catch an outrageous thrill
But it's more like spinning wheels of fortune
Which never stand still
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
When the sunlight is rising up in my eyes
And the long night has left me back at somebody's side
It feels alright for a long sweet minute like hours before
But it's more like looking out for something
I can't find anymore
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
Always yearning
There is no dream
That you can't make true, if you're looking for love
But there's no girl
Who's burning the ice away from my heart
Maybe tonight!
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
Always yearning
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
Always yearning
Quick charge tutorial
I'm so drunk right now. I love this. I love you.
When I was little boy I saw this video when it was in its initial run and when i saw Rudy with that damned flying v I was hooked. I have about 25 flying Vs now because of him and the Scorpions' kickass music.
That's cool. Thanks for sharing, we all have a couple 3 classics , I know I do. Back to the tunes...
Pure Rock & Roll! How many of my days in my teens were spent hauling ass in my Camaro with the Scorps blasting on my fine stereo
Scorpions 🦂
Jabbs! one of the most underrated guitarist! Anywhere you read about Scorpions you always hear about Uli and Michael Schenker...but Jabbs and Rudi are one of the greatest guitar duos like Adrian and Dave or Glen and KK. Rudolf has the tightest rhythm. And when he solos, Boy! he delivers!
arunashamal agreed but jabbs is my inspiration
+arunashamal VERY WELL SAID!!!
Scorpions haven't missed a beat and as long as they can play those oh so sweet guitar riffs, rock will never die!!!!!
I Like ULI
What a masterpiece of the Scorpions. The 80"s still rules .
I was a US Infantryman stationed on the DMZ in South Korea in the mid 80's. This band got Me through some very tough times, thanks
87-88
Love this song and video. 80s ruled!
This was cool...took me right back to the 10th grade...played the absolute hell out of that Blackout cassette...sounded killer in my lowered 84 Nissan lil truck.....Lil Trucks Unlimited....dam..those were fun times!!..))
Girls, beach, youth, eternal rock...Yeeahh😉
Ah the 80's when we truly had some of the greatest music don't get me wrong i have some absolute favorites from all genre and generations including recent but man 80's absolutely takes me back to my youth! A jam session of nothing but 80's totally changes my mood ❤
They don't make music like this any more!
Fortunate to have been brought backstage, fed, given a pass, a drumstick, a guitar pic AND THEN driven in one of their two limos, with the band, back to the Sheraton Hotel in Harrisburg, PA following their City Island gig on this tour. I wore my ACCEPT tee from a recent tour and they all recognized me from the audience. Bob, the tour manager and I listened to The Alarm's "Declaration" and The Smiths' "The Smiths" on cassette before the after-party started. We had many Scorpions albums in the '70s and into the early '80s so this was quite a thrill. THANK YOU SCORPIONS!
Quit bragging!
😁

Scorps, best German band, ever.
Saw them last night in Toronto, incredible concert. Scorpions rock forever...
I was stationed in Germany in 1984... seen them in concert ...they sang in German.... and it was still freaking awesome.. man do I miss the '80s
Same here Kirchegoens , the rock 82-84 monsters of rock
Scorpions music + '80s hot girls in bikinis = heaven
Valhalla !!!
hell yeah!
Cássio Amaral dorgas too
+beer
Yes
Que banda incrível, como eu queria ter vivido essa época viu, nasci em 97 mas amo demais músicas dessa década de 80
I love this video. It always makes me wish I was around in the 80's. I'll still take being 24 and jamming out to Scorpions while everyone else is jamming out to The Weeknd, long live hard rock ànd heavy metal!! 🤘
Nothing wrong with the Weeknd but The Scorpions are awesome
Love both!!!
Nothing wrong with The Weeknd, just wish most kids these days appreciated what music influenced today's hits
Right on
Trust me the 80's rock ROCKED!... looking at past decades and band, and there were good bands for sure but, the 80's was a hell of time 4 me ')
All the youngins'. When you see these 80's vids, and see the smiles, huge concerts, bands running wild w/ laughter. I'm gonna' tell ya' . This sh*t was real, what a f'n amazing time it was (70's were cool too). Man, if we could've seen how the 21st was going to be. I don't think we would have believed it. What a f'n difference....I'd give it all to back, just for one day....RnF'NR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Take me back please, take me back. 1968 Texas baby here. Such sweet times back in the 1980's, hard but fun
Me too bro Me too!! 🤘
Life definitely was a beach back in those days. Miss it too bro.
@@funkster007 for real bro!
I wanna go backkkk😭😭😭
I get goosebumps every time I see this video because I miss the 80s so bad. I feel really bad for the teenagers and younger adults of today that arrived too late to the party.
They can’t party now without shooting and fighting because everyone now is unshakably self centered.
but they have gadgets anyway
Scorpions the best band. I love you.
80s Rock music is so bad ass!
The Scorpions helped make the early-mid 80s Awesome! Totally Awesome! 85 was, by FAR, the best overall year of my life. Remember how computers were all the rage, but they never once mentioned, computers would track and spy on, your entire lives.
1982- Judas Priest - Electric Eye. LOL
Up here in space
I'm looking down on you
My lasers trace
Everything you do
You think you've private lives
Think nothing of the kind
There is no true escape
I'm watching all the time
I'm made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean
I'm elected electric spy
I'm protected electric eye
Always in focus
You can't feel my stare
I zoom into you
You don't know I'm there
I take a pride in probing all your secret moves
My tearless retina takes pictures that can prove
I'm made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean
I'm elected electric spy
I'm protected electric eye
Electric eye, in the sky
Feel my stare, always there
There's nothing you can do about it
Develop and expose
I feed upon your every thought
And so my power grows
I'm made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean
I'm elected electric spy
I'm protected electric eye
Protected. Detective. Electric eye

he has an unmistakable tone of voice
Klause Meine!
I just love the way that man sings!!! LOVE HIM!!!!
English his second language
👍 Yeah,....he sounds just like the Scorpions Lead singer :p
He sure does. It’s unmistakable!!
Rudolf rocks! Long live Rudolf!
Underrated guitarists the whole band
Mathias Jabbs, a true metal guitar master!
saw them 2 times...soooooo loud and spot on..they blew the roof off the place...
they were touring with acdc...party
Almost cry every time I hear this😢
Awesome band. I saw them 5 times. Those guitars, Klaus's vocals, the rhythm section. Just gets your blood pumping wwwwoooo. Love it to death.
This video makes me wish I was a rockstar.
Great. Try it
Seen them monsters of rock in Indianapolis , one of the hottest days of the year and they came through like the great musicians they are. Thank you SCORPIONS
My absolute favorite rock group. Love my Scorpions!
Banda incrível! Canção maravilhosa 🇧🇷👍
Women looked so much healthier
This is a documentary about a time with lower processed food consumption.
it was the cocaine
It was the speed diet plan.
They were younger then.
Not to mention most of them were white girls
Why couldn't I have been born in the mid 70's so I can enjoy the 80's? :'(
Great days.... Long before I-phones, GPS and constant Social media.
You would have had the time of your life! I know I sure as hell did! God I miss those days!
you didn't miss much.
What a loser Darren! You have to have been a total stiff not to enjoy the 80'S. Great women and good drugs
Man, are you twisted. You actually think if you like Slayer or Metallica that you're going to hell? C'mon,ask any preacher, priest, etc. That's ridiculous. Plus, we were talking about the 80'S. That decade ended 37 years ago. I am sure Jesus loves music too. Look up dancing and celebrating in the Bible. If you were a good Christian, you wouldn't be judging other people.
bruschetta.... bruschetta nights..owwww!
Gonna eat bruschetta all night long
FUCK!!!!!! I MISS THE 80's!!!!
+RUclips Renegade That's cool. Great music never dies. Keep rockin' !!!
I was fortunate to be a teen during this time. The music, movies etc. Although rock better in the 70's.
wow you guys are lucky:) because todays music sucks and thats in every genre.i which i was in that era but i was born in the 90's.
Dad Rock Mic drop!
wesley callihoo, rock on but needs more cow bell.
Scorpions concerts in the 80s...now those were one helluva show!
Definitely, i think i seen them at least 6 times back in the day and most recently around 2006ish. Detroit Rock City Baby.
I sometimes think I’m in the wrong generation
@@williamsizemore98 I've only seen them 4 times, I need to step my game up.
Who else is going through their favorite jams thinking about life back in the days? Please tell me I'm not the only one🖐🏼✌🏼️
You're not the only one! The 80's were the best! Graduated, enlisted, got married, had kids and rocked the fuck out!!
I've been doing that for yearssss
No, you're not the only one😍
Scorpions, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest were all huge bands for me and my buddies in the 80’s. Good times! Every paper school book cover I had I drew these three bands logos on them.
No Van Halen?
Marty Callner - 'I did a video for the Scorpions called Big City Nights. MTV rejected it because there were too many girls in bikinis. So, I added 7 more shots of girls in bikinis and I sent it in, and they aired it.'

THE LEGEND
I saw the Scorpions on their "Blackout" Tour. That was the album BEFORE this one. '82 Who opened for them? Iron Maiden "Number of the best tour" Mega who?? Never heard of em. Those two albums were released within a month of each other. Ticket had no seat number. Get there early, get a good seat. No seats on the floor. Standing. If ya wanted to go up to the stage, ya just walked up there.
We didn't know what a mosh pit was. We just headbanged. One thing gone is the sea of 80's hair, headbanging to a jam. When the lights would flash on the crowd it looked like a sea of waving hair in unison. Quite the spectacle. No cost to park. Ticket was $7.50. The show was phenomenal. You ain't heard loud.. Oh, we could smoke too. In the building. Lights off there were no smartphones. Bic lighters man. Even people that didn't smoke had the lighter.
Yeah I saw that tour too, first concert in my life, pretty much blew my mind. Girlschool opened the whole thing lol and pretty much got boo'd off the stage, silly girls what were they thinking.
You nailed that description bro! Been to hundreds of metal concerts starting in the late 70s all thru the 80s/90s & Im slowing down a little in 2020! Im 58 & yeah i lived thru all that great shit! The tunes the babes the big hair along with a little alcohol & substance abuse! Wish i had a freaking time machine!
What a voice! Man who the fuc could give this a thumbs down. This is heavenly
Some idiot!😕
I envy you guys that lived in this era....The 80s was kick ass
Saw these guys at the OC Fair in 2005 when I was 21. Amazing still. Loved the Scorps since I was a kid. They rock.
Orange county fairgrounds in Middletown NY or in Orange county CA?!
a sonoridade dos anos 80 é única e mágica demais, essa música é o puro suco do metal dessa década, EU AMOOOO 🤘🏻
I’m 22 years old and I love the crap out of this song.
Amo demais essa música 🎶 ❤.
Me passa muita felicidade e alegria.
A mim também.... ❤️❤️
I was fortunate to spend the night with the Scorpions during this time after a show in Boulder, Colorado at the Hilton Harvest Hotel. Being a professional acoustic drummer for many moons myself it was truly an honor and a blessing to spend quality time with my favorite band.😊
So what were they like?
Over 11 million, yea can't be wrong ya know! This song always has and always WILL KICK ASS!
