German rockers’ most famous song now includes lyrics: ‘Now listen to my heart / It says Ukrainia’
The lead singer of the German hard rockers Scorpions has revealed he changed the lyrics of Wind of Change because he no longer wanted to “romanticise Russia” with his chart-topping perestroika power ballad, after Putin’s war of aggression in“To sing Wind of Change as we have always sung it, that’s not something I could imagine any more,” Klaus Meine. “It simply isn’t right to romanticise Russia with lyrics like: ‘I follow the Moskva / Down to Gorky Park … Let your balalaika sing’”.
