	was weak & over produced & the stuff with Kee Marcello just never had the feel of the bands debut & sophomore release. But since the release of "Start From The Dark" in 2004 they are on the right track, & from the clips above they still have more to offer. \,,/

	fuck, so there are actually real people that enjoy the music of this band..... I mean ,ok, Final Countdown was a good song.... but that was when I was ten years old

	All the uninformed Europe bashers should check out their early material before the hairspray days, songs like Seven Doors Hotel, Aphasia, Wings Of Tomorrow, Wasted Time. Great heavy rock in the tradition of Thin Lizzy, with smoking guitar solos performed by one of the best rock guitarists out there - John Norum. I like the last two Europe albums, but I must say that I enjoy Norums current downtuned guitar tone not half as much as his classic 80ies sound - I think it had more bite back than, lead as well as rhythm. Modern is not always better.

	Some people should shut up just for not leting us see how ignorant they are. If you judge this band for the overplayed Final Countdown, you are missing a lot. This band's records with Norum where brilliant Power/Heavy Metal records with a lot of melody, great songs and outstanding guitar work with THIN LIZZY style, as all the band are huge fans. (They even have a video where they show themselves as kids going to a THIN LIZZY concert in the 70's). Joey Tempest has also one of the greatest voices of the style, if you have some AOR and Hard/Heavy music taste.

	Wow, judging a band by one song/album... how sophisticated! Can't wait to hear their new album! Looking forward to see them again!
