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".

Miracle
Scorpions Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The long way home
And now it's just one step to go
All those hours alone
With only thing to get me home
Will I get out of this?
And all that's left for me is hope
Now all I'm hoping for
Is a miracle (a miracle)
To see the daylight
A miracle
The sky so blue
It's a miracle (a miracle)
To find a new life
A miracle
To be back with you!
In the darkest hours
Alone with all your fears
All you can think of
Are those happy days
So much we take for granted,
But life's a fragile thing these days
When the time is up
All you're hoping for
You're hoping for
Is a miracle (a miracle)
To see the daylight
A miracle
The sky so blue
It's a miracle (a miracle)
To find a new life
A miracle
To be back with you!
All I need
Is a miracle (a miracle)
To see the daylight
A miracle
The sky so blue
It's a miracle (a miracle)
To find a new life
A miracle
To be back with you!
To be back with you...(a miracle)
Just one more step
One more step...
One more step...
To be back with you...
To be back with you...
The Scorpions' song "Miracle" is about hope and the desire for a second chance. The opening lines of the song suggests the singer feels like they've been on a long and difficult journey, and they are only one step away from achieving their goal. The song alludes to the idea that sometimes life can be uncertain, and the future may seem bleak. However, the singer remains hopeful and believes that a miracle can occur to help them see the daylight, find a new life, and be reunited with someone they love. The song's chorus, "All I need is a miracle," is repeated several times, driving home the message of hope.
The second verse of the song describes a darker period for the singer, where they are battling their fears alone. They reflect on happier times and recognize how much they took for granted. This experience taught them that life is fragile, and when the time is up, all they hope for is a miracle. The song's message here conveys that hope is necessary to keep going through the tough times.
Scorpions' "Miracle" is a meaningful song that resonates with people who are going through a challenging period in their lives. It is a reminder that hope can give us the strength to continue forward and believe that things can improve. It is a song that encourages listeners to hold on, even when all seems lost.
Line by Line Meaning
We took the long way
We didn't take the easiest route
The long way home
We took the path that took the most time
And now it's just one step to go
We're almost there
All those hours alone
We spent a lot of time by ourselves
With only thing to get me home
We only had one thing to focus on to get home
Will I get out of this?
I'm not sure if I'll make it out of this situation
And all that's left for me is hope
All I have left is to hope
Now all I'm hoping for
My only hope now is
Is a miracle (a miracle)
I need something extraordinary to happen
To see the daylight
To see a positive outcome
The sky so blue
To experience happiness again
To find a new life
To start anew
To be back with you!
To be reunited with someone important
In the darkest hours
During the most difficult times
Alone with all your fears
Facing your fears by yourself
All you can think of
The only thing on your mind
Are those happy days
Thinking back on happier times
So much we take for granted,
We often don't appreciate what we have
But life's a fragile thing these days
Life is delicate and uncertain nowadays
When the time is up
At the end of it all
All you're hoping for
The only thing you're wishing for
To be back with you!
To be reunited with someone important
All I need
My only requirement
Is a miracle (a miracle)
I need something extraordinary to happen
Just one more step
We're almost there
To be back with you...
To be reunited with someone important
One more step...
We're almost there
To be back with you...
To be reunited with someone important

Maravilhosa musica que só os Scorpions podem fazer
joaquim moreira
Desde os meus 10 anos que gosto de ouvir Scorpions.
Com 20 anos fiz 12 meses de serviço militar obrigatório então naquele tempo apenas tínhamos o leitor de cassete e hedfones
Eu fazia 10 horas de viagem de comboio e as cassetes de scorpions eram a minha companhia na viagem
Ainda hoje 26 anos depois guardo as cassetes
Recordo cada momento ao som destas lindas baladas
Obrigada Scorpions por terem feito das minhas viagens que eram um inferno ao som da vossa música eu entrava num lugar mágico sem mais nada apenas eu e vocês frente a frente na minha memória.
