🎼26 May 1986. Who remembers this one?☝️🤔
Yes, it's 35 years today that Swedish rock band #Europe released their most famous album, The Final Countdown. It has been an iconic record for my generation, I personally started my "rock life" thanks to that and the same happened to many people of my age.. and the thing is that we all still clearly remember!😃
#TheFinalCountdown charted n.1 all over the world and sold millions of copies mainly thanks to its epic titletrack 🤟, literally everyone was singing it that year, my "not proper rockers" parents too 😳
The story behind it's an incredible one, to testify once more how life goes... #vocalist Joey Tempest wrote the intro of The Final Countdown many years before, he wanted it to be the intro to their concerts, then he just forgot it! When #guitarist John Norum heard it in 1985 he insisted to write a proper song as intro number for their next new album. Nobody of them believed much in it... and of course it became their most famous hit ! 😁
