europe - the final countdown (music-hall) 1986@

(taille reelle)


It's the final countdown
We're heading for Venus
And maybe we'll come back
To earth, who can tell?

The Final Countdown est une chanson de rock du groupe de rock suédois Europe écrite par Joey Tempest. Elle évoque un depart vers la planete Venus sans réelle garantie de retour proche. C'est le premier single issu du troisième album studio du groupe, The Final Countdown, sorti le 14 février 1986. C'est la chanson la plus connue du groupe. Elle a atteint la 1re place dans vingt-cinq pays.
Les paroles de la chanson ont été inspirées par la chanson Space Oddity de David Bowie.
The Final Countdown avait été écrite pour être la chanson d'ouverture pour les concerts

We're leaving together,
But still it's farewell
And maybe we'll come back
To earth, who can tell?
I guess there is no one to blame
We're leaving ground (leaving ground)
Will things ever be the same again?
It's the final countdown
The final countdown
Oh
We're heading for Venus (Venus)
And still we stand tall
'Cause maybe they've seen us (seen us)
And welcome us all, yeah
With so many light years to go
And things to be found (to be found)
I'm sure that we'll all miss her so
It's the final countdown
The final countdown
The final countdown
The final countdown
Oh
The final countdown, oh
It's the final count down
The final countdown
The final countdown
The final countdown
Oh
It's the final count down
We're leaving together
The final count down
We'll all miss her so
It's the final countdown
It's the final countdown
Oh
It's the final countdown, yeah
