Since I like hard rock music, fast solos love, but also need good ballads to survive, I have all the CDs Scorpions on the shelf, at least until the 1996 "Pure Instinct". Then I got faith in the Hanoverian somehow lost, because what was new since, was either technicized slapstick ("Eye II Eye") or shallower Schnulz. For example, the new pieces on the otherwise very horny "Acoustica" (only have the DVD) or even the Expo anthem "Moment of Glory", worse was only at that time, "White Dove". Scorpions with children's choir sounds nunmal after kindergarten because the children can nix it. But since I have never forgotten what the Scorpions "Large" done (and I'm not just talking of "Blackout"!), I looked at the "Moment of Glory" recently undergone a skeptical but intense acoustic investigation and hearing this : astray horny! The interplay between orchestra and rock band is at least as cool as Metallica and Deep Purple, the song material properly (apart from the title track), the selection of something more original (and more!) Should have been.
Funnily enough, I even like "Here In My Heart". The Hammers are but "Hurricane 2000" (never sounded the classics better, only the intro!), And the two instrumentals "Crossfire" and "Deadly Sting Suite". Kudos, Respect, I'm impressed! Also "Wind of change" can be so again to go through and "Still Loving You" is almost better than the original, "Lady Starlight" anyway. In "Big City Nights" I could do without the guest singer and belongs rather Klaus Meine, well, you can not have everything ... All in all, I have been disabused and will also in the listen again "Eye II Eye" ...
