During the mid-1970s, with guitarist Uli Jon Roth (who replaced Schenker's younger brother Michael) part of the lineup, the music of the Scorpions was defined as hard rock. After Roth's departure in 1978, Schenker and Meine took 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, with recording a developed later in several of their albums. Michael Schenker also played on the Lovedrive album. 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 thirteen 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.
Scorpions are estimated to have sold over 100 million records around the world, making them one of the best-selling hard rock and heavy metal bands. One of their most recognized hits is "Wind of Change" (from Crazy World), a symbolic anthem of the political changes in Eastern Europe in the late 1980s and early 1990s and the fall of the Berlin Wall, and it remains as one of the best-selling singles in the world with over 14 million copies. Two of the songs on their ninth studio album Love at First Sting, "Rock You Like a Hurricane" and "Still Loving You", are regarded as some of the most influential and popular works, both in heavy metal music and among rock ballads, defined as "rock anthem" and "a true hymn of love".

Scorpions Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Behind closed eyes, there's a pearl inside a shell
From time to time, I come to see
If this world still has a place for me
When I put my head to sleep
Take the rest my body needs
That's the time my mind is up and away
We are dreamers, all of our lives
We are dreamers, your dream will be mine
Forever, dream on dreamer
It doesn't matter where you're from
The door is open all the time for everyone
There's a place I know so well
Will I find you, only time will tell
Well it's been a long, long time
Since I've seen that state of mind
Right now my friend, I'm up and away
We are dreamers, all of our lives
We are dreamers, your dream will be mine
Forever, dream on dreamer
We are dreamers, that's what we are
We are dreamers always light years apart
Forever, dream on dreamer
When I put my head to sleep
Take the rest my body needs
That's the time my mind is up and away
We are dreamers, all of our lives
We are dreamers, your dream will be mine
Forever, dream on dreamer
We are dreamers, that's what we are
We are dreamers always light years apart
Forever, dream on dreamer
There's a place I know so well

It expresses the idea that it does not matter where one comes from, as long as they continue to dream, and the doors will still be open for them.
The lyrics "We are dreamers, all of our lives. We are dreamers, your dream will be mine. Forever, dream on, dreamer" convey the message that everyone has dreams, and if they are pursued, they can be realized. The song inspires listeners to continue pursuing their aspirations, no matter how far-fetched they may seem. The final line, "There's a place I know so well," hints at the idea that although one may physically travel far, the mind can take them anywhere.
Overall, the song "Dreamer" speaks to the universal experience of dreaming and acknowledges that this aspect of humanity is what gives us hope for a better tomorrow. It encourages listeners to embrace their love of dreaming and to never give up on their hopes and aspirations.
