3:44 I absolutely resonate with this dude here, playing the air guitar with such emotion!
I call him Jean Jacket Blue Bandana Man, but the moment i saw him i was like "YES THIS MAN UNDERSTANDS HOW THIS SOLO FEELS RIGHT NOW"
How can I get that air guitar? Where do they sell it?
Yeah bandana guy!!! 🤘🏼
the right hand vibrato
😂😂😂
3:43 this is 80,s original fan,
RIGHT YEAH !!!
Former lead guitarist
I think the same thing
Hope he didn't soil himself.

One of the greatest rock anthems of all time
Correction - THE greatest rock a them of all time
@@feelthelove8890 You’re a kid
@@scorpions1965 I am far from a kid, the song is 37 years old this year... The 80s is generally considered the best decade of Rock. Please enlighten me with your favourites from the past.
@@feelthelove8890 You call this the greatest one? It’s one of them of course but definitely not the GREATEST one
Anyone listening in 2024 ?
Im listening in 2026

Yes ....❤❤❤❤
i love that these older rock groups are consistently showing this generation how its done !
Exactly what I was thinking. Artists from the 80's and 90's are still rocking out, while some of the 20yr rappers from today can't say a damn word.
Sabaton is the new generation
@@hanes2 Sabaton actually used this song as an intro before coming to stage
not so harsh, look at Måneskin winning the Eurovision, not bad for a bunch of kids...
@@Kenshiroit yea im thinking the same too,they are not bad at all
I miss the eighties. This music brings back a lot of good memories
💯👌💯
yes true
You are very lucky to be born in the eighties. Legendary Era!😎🔥
Are
Me too, great music...great times my friend!
the Final Countdown is an immortal masterpiece. I heard it 35 years ago and I still do. There is nothing more moving and touching than this
Respect to these guys for still playing this song with passion and energy. After almost 40 years, you couldn't blame them if they were sick of it by now and just went through the motions
Yeah man.. right
This song is more than masterpiece man this song literally flows the energy in the body whenever you fill tense or depressed just listen this song I bet in a minute your energy will comeback 😀 it’s the magical song actually 😀 it’s the music therapy by this masterpiece life saving song 😀👍👌🙌❤️💐🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
not if its your own creation 🙂
They are doing new material, with more or less success keep on fighting to bring back rock when sound grunge dissapeared. In an interview .., Joey said that in one ocation, they decided to take this song out the playlist,but something went wrong, and Joey or the entire band, took it as a kind of signal, and this song, went back. In the end, it become a protection ritual or something
Majority of the audience are middle aged, they may no longer have the energy to get wild like they used to be back when they were young but they are all enjoying the show within their hearts.
dude. the metal/Rock genre is dying here in my country. There are still people who listen to it but there are almost no new bands here. Like you said, they may be old but still enjoy it
Rock has no age limit! 👍 I loved these guys in the 80s, and I've already got tickets to go wild with them again next year 😁🤘
Agreed. 👍
@@saintricardo8746 Here in Europe it still has a lot of life and I'm in the south of Europe, if you go to nordic countries that's big.
Whether you like it or not, you need to adapt your music to the younger generation in order to be “timeless”.
If not, your fan base will age and who will be your current day fans
This song is so catchy and genius. They had the music before they had the words. I miss the 80s.
Any sing reccomendations
What a great rock band and what an amazing song to forever be remembered by. It's a classic.
When we leave the Earth en masse in 400,000,000 years, that's definitely the song to play on the PA.
I shivered at the sight of so many spectators.
A spectacular concert.
This isn't a song, it's a Damn stadium anthem!
Really! It is because of its passionate prelude!
from Yuanlin City, Taiwan
I am Taiwanese as well, it is a memory for a generation, it doesn't matter how he sang it, is all about those songs can sing by originals.
Sure it is, dude! This song makes me cry and every time I hear it... don't know, why, actually....)
@@453543ification I think you will cry because this song is the pride of Europe and you love Europe very much!
jack wu maybe I love European rock and metal music too much, even if I live in Russia)))
The Keyboard intro still gives me the chill
The guitar solo does it for me. Everytime. John Norum ROCKS!! 🤘🤘🤘

Goosebumps after the first note 🙌🙌🙏🙏 And I'm a member of Europe fan club since 1987 and i have meet them in private! 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪😍😍😍😍🙌🙌🙌🙌💥💥💥💥🤟🤟🤟🤟
Damn you must be old
🤝
Ive never heard them live
..but my God theyre actually amazing even all these years later. Amazing vocals.
Vanessa Nolan I saw them on the Walk The Earth tour. Fucking amazing!
Vanessa Nolan seen them twice they were superb.
Nessie TM WOW, We had it made in Buffalo, NY 10 years of concerts 4 every summer at Bills Stadium in 70s Rolling Stones liked Buffalo played here 6 times. Big bummer Led Zeppelin cancelled when Roberts 5year old son passed away from a stomach virus. Aerosmith, Bob Seger, Alice Cooper, Doobie Brothers, Fleetwood Mac, Greatfull Dead, some how they got Lynyrd Skynyrd & Allman Brothers to play here. Country Singer Alan Jackson.The crowd went crazy when Bob Seger said ( HELLO BUFFALO ).It was nuts people throwing Beer Bottals at the stage, people passed out even loud music didnt wake them, 1 show we had to wait 2 hours some band wanted to play in the dark. Like Football games we partied in parking lots 3 hours before the show. Hope you are getting what Im talking about lack of Security. I surprised myself how much beer I could drink being only 5'6" Tall. Also having Girlfriends being so small. It did suck my IRISH Freckles never disappear from my face. Its funny some people think Freckles are Bug Bites. Freckles are also called ANGEL KISSES. Not always fun being IRISH lots of people think were all Drunks, even now REDHEADS get made fun of. Ill admit us IRISH are Different born with Red Hair & Freckles. Not fun living in Buffalo our winters are 5 months November - March, Lake Erie dumps 10-12 feet every winter. We were once called ( SNOW CAPITAL OF USA ) 1 good thing were called MIAMI of the North we get lots of 90 degree day in summer. People love to walk on Frozen Lake Erie, ALWAYS WHITE CHRISTMAS IN BUFFALO 1 more thing not only IRISH & SCOTTISH BORN WITH RED HAIR & FRECKLES. Be carefull of IRISH When we die we come back as Vampires. EVERYBODY LOVES AN IRISH GIRL, IM THE IRISH GIRL YOUR MOTHER WARNED YOU ABOUT. BOY or GIRL with Red Hair need to be carefull in the sun there Skin burns easily. Told you us IRISH are Different. It did suck being only 5'6" Tall
Nessie TM as much as I liked the music those 70s concerts were dangerous because of very little Security. 1 show we had to wait 2 hours some band wanted to play in the dark. Honestly was afraid of getting in a fight I was only 5'6" Tall. I did surprise myself how much I could drink being so small. Also I had Girlfriends being small. Didnt help I was of IRISH Decent. Not always fun being IRISH people think all IRISH are Drunks. Some people think our Freckles are Bug Bites. Even today REDHEADS are Bullied. Us kids believed we were 100% IRISH Mom & Dad both had IRISH names O'GRADY - KELLY. So IRISH 1 Brother name was PATRICK, COLLIN, JAMES
0:13 I love the way most of them don’t even know who’s up on stage but start cheering and raising their arms to the sky the moment they hear the first tone
This is the best comment ever for this video , well done dude :-)
Es que es The Wacken
So these guys sing that song from the commercial!!!!
The young girl at 1:48 was born at least 15 years after this song launched. Yet she sings along, showing how truly timeless some songs are.
Her parents raised her well
Greatest band ever. Long after humans is an extinct species in the universe, the universe will still be rocking this song.
I was there!!!!! And it was INSANE!!!! When they played Rock the night and the final countdown the entire WOA roared and screamed!!!! This video can't explain how was there!!!! ❤❤❤❤
I know you were there Moris, you f'n owe me 2 beers!
Yes I too was there. You were standing there in the 43rd row, 26th column
@@pokemonitishere202 well i fell in love with a girl at the rockshow, she is so good ...
How many People was there?
@@goronja69 75.000 tickets were sold for W:O:A 2017. The show was awesome.
The Final Countdown is not a song. It's a hymn! :)
You say it!! 🤗👍🏼
Amen🙌

I agree
Gw setuju tong..!
Повзрослели парни, но всё таки же красавчики... Вокал как всегда , в порядке...
I love how Joey Tempests voice sounds, as he aged, his voice aged and it aged like wine, it really resonates with Europe’s absolutely epic sound
I admire the guitarist how calm he plays in such a super energized crowd
We're leaving together,
But still it's farewell
And maybe we'll come back
To earth, who can tell?
I guess there is no one to blame
We're leaving ground (leaving ground)
Will things ever be the same again?
It's the final countdown
The final countdown
Oh
We're heading for Venus (Venus)
And still we stand tall
'Cause maybe they've seen us (seen us)
And welcome us all, yeah
With so many light years to go
And things to be found (to be found)
I'm sure that we'll all miss her so
It's the final countdown
The final countdown
The final countdown
The final countdown
Oh
The final countdown, oh
It's…

Thank for text
สุดยอดคับ
The greatest rock band of 80s and its still lives on.. 💜💜
They killed it on this one ! An anthem for our generation
Badass. And Im a mega black and death metal fan.
A great song is a great song.
The solo is the best Glam metal solo I ever heard
Shitty, overplayed pile of trash
So do I but this is my hymn 20 years at least \m/
@@bazookajoe6133 Don't speak about your mother that way
Hey, may you know the black metal band equilibrium if not, well listen to them for sure,
They play power metal, black metal and folk metal in one song, perfectly mixed up,
THIS SHOULD BE THE END OF THE WORLD SONG.
Well said Bro.I like your thought 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Before we press the nuclear button
METAL EXPOSER whenever we launch our first shuttle to Mars that has people on it this should be played worldwide.
Right on dude this is an fucking anthem
its corona time...i'm already playing this song out loud on my speakers.
This song will NEVER get old!
Long Live 80s Metal ❤️🤘
yeah i love this song i play this song on new years
8 years later and still a classic
Joey's vocals still strong and great..love this band
Good joke. His vocal is weak comparing to 90's. The vocal cords degrade with age.
@@DiegoArmandovich Depends on the singer. Steven Tyler is evidence of that.
@@DiegoArmandovich Michael Kiske don't agree with you
Even though his voice has left him for live shows, I will always love this song and this band! Long live the 80's
My too💯👌💯
What are you talking about his voice sounds great
@@SteveSmith-jl2db serious?? song was good tho but sounds blah
His voice has aged, that's all. I think he sounds ace! Saw Europe twice in Dublin over the past few years. Amazing!!
I disagree! It's not many rocksingers who sounds better than Joey Tempest live!
I'm 53 years old , and it still makes me passionate like when I was 18 ...❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥
the final countdown is so awesome.. I still get chills....this music was playing in my room.. as my dad passed away and said good bye..
O man the days when musicians could actually sing, play, write songs... how I miss those days..
That is... hurtful towards many great musicians, that still perform, you know?
@@eriadin hey man I'm not sure what you mean
@@Etienne1239 I mean... I understood this comment as saying that musicians today can't sing, play, nor write songs, which is not true, in my opinion. Maybe I've put it in a wrong way
@@eriadin yes I am also a musician and me myself wish I could sing play and write like these guys. So I did not mean any disrespect. I was just taken by the power of this songs and the bands performance.
@@Etienne1239 Oh. Sorry for the misunderstatement here, then. And good luck ^^
I'm a musician, too, but I do covers only, I doubt I'll ever write anything myself.
*LEGEND NEVER DIE* !!🤘
Mia phoenix well said
A universal truth
The rock forever
This music creates energy in my veins 🔥
OK, HOW IS JOEY TEMPEST STILL DROP DEAD GORGEOUS??
This song never gets old.
indeed
Original video posted has over 1 billion views.. that's alot of folks that agree with you. My kids heard this come on one day and started jumping around singing it. They are 13 & 14 and never heard it around me . 👌
All in their 50s and all still rocking, still giving one hell of a live show
@Lothar Lustig shut the fuck up, god isn’t real
Hail satan
Europe, simplesmente sensacional
3:43 Everytime I Watch this live performance the bandana man took my eyes the most and makes everything and my day 100% complete and always makes me smile.
He still has a great voice !!!
A slightly lower key though.
Yes and his energy though! Marry me Joey!!!!!
@@marbananta Very slightly. Half a step. He sounds awfully good.
unfortunately, he lost of his range and definition .. His voice in 80s was surely magnificent ..But half of 70,80s singers lose it ..sometimes its lack of care or just injuries and genetic changes

Wow... La voz de Joey está mejor que antes. ¡Impresionante! Mientras otros van perdiendo capacidad para cantar, Joey cada vez es mejor... 🎸🔥
🙋🙏✌️💥🎸
3:45 this bro was so into the song
Gotta love it. I mean, this is an ANTHEM.
I was six years old when they released it in 1986, and I was addicted to it already then, as a six-year old boy ...
Now, more than 30 years later, it still works the same as on the first day, back then, in 1986 ...
Indeed an absolutely unforgettable, one hell of a classic ...
Yes it is! Now it's 2020 and it puts a different spin on it! Happy 40th B day Jens!

They will live forever in us heart.
Уважаемый мистер Темплест-, живите вечно!!!!! Спасибо вам за ваш труд, а богу за ваш талант👍👍👍Видела в 14 лет и сейчас в 47 просто в восхищении(единственный, кто остался безупречным)
I love how the air instruments have the power to evoke a lot of feelings and emotions
I'm an amateur drummer and I have been loving Europe since this song came out. Greetings from Italy
Probably the best rock band on Earth ... even in their 50s and 60s
With one song? 😂
@ivangol1023 they have many many many songs.Just one hymn.Everybody can have their own opinions
The most coolest intro song of all the time for me
One of the most Iconic songs ever .
Omg...I got goosebumps flashbacks when I was 12 years old my older brother n his friends listened to this song day in day out...
Não é qualquer música que consegue fazer parte do seleto grupo dos CLÁSSICOS, essa é certamente uma das tais !!!
Wow..60s70s80s90s the best decades of music of the century
Europe the best Rock Band of the 80's....I m still listening to them.
Europe is very good but isn't the best band of its moment! There's a lot!
maybe top 50
Queen!!
@@Ali-cy8dw agree
No autotune
No naked girl
No drugs

Nothing wrong with those last two.

One of the most iconic songs of the 80s.
after all these years, this is still the perfection in one song. the melody, the keyboard's riff, the voice, the solo. everything is perfect here, powerful and catchy

Saw them in Australia last year, they played a killer two hour set and finished with this classic. Underrated band.
This song is more relevant now than ever.
It's not just a song it's an Anthem for all the rock & metal fans🤘
and that epic opening synth riff is a tutorial to any keyoard player!
His vocals are AMAZING
I'm having goosebumps listening to you guys after so many years. You guys just nailed it fellas. God bless music
I got goosebumps just at the intro...
this beautiful song reminds me of my happiest moments of my past life
Absolute legend. Still the heavy monster anthem tune it is and awesome band.
Happy to see you in 2019 or 2020 sing in the 80s still sounds good
Itcsays 2017😂😂
after all these years and advance age , they still have the quality. Iconic band
The size of that crowd!!!!!!!!! Who’s listening in 2022??!! 🤘
Still after all this years he rocks this solo 🙇🙇🙇
Went to their concerts in the 80's and see that now they're even better. More powerful sound and years of music under their belt.
Our father used to listen this song, we still listen to it, my 13 year old nephew has also started to listening it. It's really a Hymn. 💚💜💙❤️💛
Love From Bangladesh 🇧🇩
this song is soul. thanks to my parents to bring me in this millennium
Лучшие!!! Смотрел их первое выступление, сейчас показал сыну в 7 лет, его одна из любимых песен. И как за рулём, тапок в пол...
