Scorpions are a German rock band formed in
1965 in Hanover by Rudolf Schenker. Since
the band's inception, its musical style has ranged from hard rock, heavy metal, glam metal, and soft rock. The
lineup from 1978 to 1992 was the most successful incarnation of the group, and
included Klaus Meine(vocals),
Rudolf Schenker(rhythm
guitar), Matthias Jabs (lead guitar), Francis Buchholz(bass),
and Herman Rarebell(drums). The
band's only continuous member has been Schenker, although Meine has appeared on
all of Scorpions' studio albums, while Jabs has been a consistent member since
1978, and bassist Paweł Mąciwoda and drummer Mikkey Dee have
been in the band since 2003 and 2016 respectively.
During the mid-1970s, with guitarist Uli Jon Roth(who
replaced Schenker's younger brother Michael)
part of the line-up, the music of the Scorpions was defined as hard rock. After
Roth's departure in 1978, Schenker and Meine managed to take control of the
group, giving them almost all the power to compose music and write lyrics. Matthias Jabs joined in 1978, and with the melodic rock he played and the influence
of producer Dieter Dierks in the band, the Scorpions changed their sound to melodic heavy
metal mixed with lyrical "power rock ballads",
which is evident in the album Lovedrive(1979),
which began the evolution of the band's sound, developed later in several of
their albums. Over the next decade, the band achieved influence, approval from
music critics, and significant commercial success with the albums Animal
Magnetism(1980), Blackout(1982),
Love at First
Sting(1984), the live recording World Wide Live(1985), Savage Amusement(1988),
their best-selling compilation Best of
Rockers 'n' Ballads(1989), and Crazy World(1990),
all awarded at least one platinum award in the United States. The band has
released twelve 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.
Taken by Force is the fifth studio album by German band Scorpions,
released by RCA Records in 1977.
This was the first Scorpions album to feature drummer Herman Rarebell and the final studio album to feature guitarist Uli Jon Roth. Roth
left the band in 1978 following the end of the album's tour, and was at first
replaced by Michael Schenker and later by Matthias Jabs.
How does it feel babe
To taste sweet
revenge?
Do you want me on my knees?
How does it feel babe
To let me feel your strength?
Don't be cruel, can't you see?
If you don't catch me
now
I can't stop falling down
Just one more night and the devil got my soul
I need your love babe, don't tell me "No way"
Babe, I miss you so much more than words can say
How does it feel babe
To kill our destiny?
I swear I'm not gonna crawl, oh no
How does it feel babe
To make a fool out of me?
How can you be so cold?
Be so cold
If you don't catch me
now
I can't stop falling down
Just one more night and the devil got my soul
I need your love babe, don't treat me this way
Ooh I miss you, I miss you
Baby our love's got
what it takes
To give us one more chance to start
Once again
Baby our love will find a way
As long as we believe in love
If you don't catch me
now
I can't stop falling down
Just one more night and the devil got my soul
I need your love babe, don't leave me this way
Ooh I miss you, I miss you
Baby our love's got
what it takes
To give us one more chance to start
Once again
Baby our love will find a way
As long as we believe in love
As long as we believe (we believe)
Baby our love's got
what it takes
To give us one more chance to start
Once again
Baby our love will find a way
As long as we believe in love
Baby our love's got
what it takes
To give us one more chance to start
Once again
Baby our love will find a way
As long as we believe in love
Baby our love's got what it takes
To give us one more chance to start.
