Please let Scorpions in! I saw them in '79 and again in 2012 and they rocked just as hard! They have influenced many bands and have always delivered awesome Heavy Metal music. There isn't a song I don't like. They deserve it. They've worked hard for it. Thank you!

And the sting continues...they have not stopped and here it is 2013. This band amazes as they are the ONLY band out of all of them since the 70s who have never stopped rawkin all these decades! They still tour, still cut studio albums, and still rawk as great as ever. Where is the respect this band so richly deserves over most? Let's get with it and give them the kudos they have worked for all these years.

Now that KISS has been inducted, I would put Scorpions at the top of the list who should be inducted next.

Love Klaus Meine's voice & the high notes he can hit. One of the best Heavy Metal voices ever.Period. It's amazing that the band started in the 60's & could make something as brilliant as Unbreakable in 2000's in their 50's.

All Scorpions & music fans know the hits:No One Like You,Rock You Like A Hurricane,The Zoo,Wind of Change,Big City Nights,Still Loving You,Send Me An Angel,etc.
Scorpions score high on most RRHOF criteria:Influence,Innovation,Longevity,CD sales... Can't think of many bands better belonging to Hall than the Scorpions . These guys are legends!!! Scorpions Hall of Fame 2015!!! Scorpions fans let's start now. KING

Scorpions should be inducted soon. Incredible longevity & good music. When they started out Martin Luther King Jr,Robert Kennedy,Jimmy Hendrix & Jim Morrison all were still alive . Imagine that.

These guys are excellent musicians who had the magical hit Rock You Like A Hurricane.It's played everywhere from radio to NFL stadiums every week. Incredible influence.

Only thing hurting Scorpions is they didn't have that 1 Thriller or Led Zeppelin IV Classic CD that sold 25 or 30. Million CD's. I've seen people say they won't but they sold 75 million CD's worldwide. Somebody's buying. KING

Scorpions are heavy metal royalty. They would be perfect candidate for Veterans RRHOF Committee since they started in Mid 60's. Influenced many European heavy metal bands. Rock You Like A Hurricane an epic song lives on in 2014!!! Should have been inducted 5 years ago. KING

Saw Scorps at 5 Season Center in Cedar Rapids Iowa when Bon Jovi warmed up for them. Crowd actually BOOOO'D Bon Jovi for really bad singing and the Scorps came on with a lot of anticipation and KILL'D IT! Vote YES for Scorps in the HOF!!

Posted by jonas on Wednesday, 08/20/2014 @ 21:04pm


The Scorpions, just like most huge heavy metal acts from the 80s will never make the RRHOF. My reasoning:
1. The "Rock and Roll" Hall of Fame has nothing to do with rock and roll anymore. They don't deserve to even use the name "Rock and Roll." If they want to change their name to "The Music Hall of Fame", I am all down for that.
2. Unlike the Grammy's (which is run by absolutely clueless people when it comes to hard rock and metal), the RRHOF is purposely snubbing bands like the Scorpions, Iron Maiden, and Judas Priest and they are fully aware of it.

Posted by fork80 on Thursday, 01/15/2015 @ 13:33pm


The Scorpions are up there with the best bands of all time. Klaus still has an awesome voice. The Scorpions were true MONSTERS OF ROCK! They're still going while others are trying to catch up. The Scorpions should definitely be inducted!

Posted by No one like us on Tuesday, 04/21/2015 @ 01:08am


Scorpions should have been 1st ballot RRHOF. They are better than 70% of the bands elected and rocked harder than most. They should have been in with Rock You Like A Hurricane ,The Zoo, Wind Of Change and an array of great sounds and songs.Vocally Klaus blows away most competition with Heavenly range. The live concerts are outstanding and Jabs w orking the squawk box on The Zoo is masterful. There are no holes in The Scorpions RRHOF resume since they influenced many European metal bands that came later and had the longevity and critical success /acclaim needed to make RTRHOF. Deep and Dark excellent song later Scorpions. Just simply the best. KING

Scorpions should be in RRHOF. They are amazing live concerts and were musically excellent. Wind of Change show the depth of their talent as musicians starting as a softer song and building to a brilliant solo and heavier near the end. Other groups who should be inducted: Bryan Adams,Chicago, Def Leppard, Duran Duran, Grant Lee Buffalo,Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Moody Blues,The Cure. KING

It's a shame that such an International ambassador of Rock & Roll music and good will is not in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. The Committee should be ashamed of themselves for not considering them and at least getting them on the ballot for voting by the public. Fans around the world would immediately vote them in. To the Committee - Get them on the ballot for 2016 already!

Posted by Ron Knotts on Friday, 07/3/2015 @ 15:44pm


On Scorpions: It's laughable that Scorpions have never been considered in 20 years of RRHOF eligibility. Rock You Like A Hurricane, Still Loving You, The Zoo, Wind Of Change, are Classic songs. Hopefully,now Deep Purple has been inducted recently....Scorpions will be on the 2017 ballot. Could or should be on the list of the 10 greatest metal bands of all time. KING

Posted by KING on Friday, 06/16/2017 @ 02:17am


My son and I were talking about the rock n roll hall of fame and who was and how a person would get inducted in. After looking into the process who's in who's not. WoW shocked to bands like cure , Iron Maiden , scorpions aren't in the rock n roll hall of fame. Really snoop dog over the scorpions . Unreal scorpions have been a large part of rock n roll for over forty years. With two of the great guitarists yes they are! One of the most distinctive voices in rock. Great live only seen them twice 1979 navy pier Chicago and Allstate arena in Rosemont ill. In my top ten concerts. I've been to over a 100 . It's time!

Posted by David Hauschild on Saturday, 08/26/2017 @ 01:09am


I think the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame is a big joke. Just like when Jethro Tull won an award for Heavy Metal they don't know what they are doing? They should be ashamed to even call themselves The Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame. Scorpions are more Rock 'n' Roll than some of the bands that have already been inducted. I have been a Rock 'n' Roller all my life that's all I listen too. It's in my blood but this so called Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame is one place I really wouldn't care to visit even if someone would pay my way to go there. I feel it is run by stupid idiots who don't know Rock 'n' Roll. Come on really??? The Scorpions should be in there by now.

Posted by Juergen Joseph Schmidt on Thursday, 12/14/2017 @ 09:25am


This my list of inductees who are very likely to support Scorpions for an induction with the inclusion of members from certain bands. Just to give ya a fun fact about this them they originally started off as a prog-rock band.

Bon Jovi
Moody Blues
Yes
Journey
Rush
Kiss
Pearl Jam
Green Day
Metallica
Black Sabbath
Led Zeppelin
Deep Purple
Traffic
Heart
Genesis
Van Halen
AC/DC
Aerosmith
Alice Cooper
Queen
The Who
The Stooges

In the next fifteen years from now; Def Leppard, Motley Crue, Boston, Judas Priest, Bad Company, Jethro Tull, Foreignor, ELP, Procol Harum, King Crimson, and Iron Maiden will be in the HOF (or at least most of them), so that should be enough for Scorpions to get in.

The Ho F is beyond meaningless at this point, if most of these third-tier groups get considered/inducted...

Posted by EDS on Thursday, 05/31/2018 @ 12:49pm


Heck no. They're a second-tier generic hair metal band. We already have Bon Jovi and Journey for god's sake.

Posted by Michael on Tuesday, 10/30/2018 @ 11:31am


Y’know, it’s funny how there are FRL Regulars are saying no to Scorpions. If ya don’t want them in, then it means you don’t want Kraftwerk and other acts from Germany.

Scorpions made a bigger impact on metal in their home country than ya think. If it weren’t for those dudes, we wouldn’t have other great German bands like Accept, Rammstein, Kreator, Halloween, Destruction, Warlock, and Necrophagist.

As for bands outside of Germany, bands like Bon Jovi, Metallica, Motley Crue, and Def Leppard cited them as one of their influences. Scorpions were one of the building blocks of New Wave British Heavy Metal, 80’s hard rock, and thrash metal. Check out their 70’s albums; they’re the band’s best efforts.

Could you give me some links to articles proclaming that Scorpions influenced Rammstein? Also, if I had to make a top 10 most influential hair metal bands list, they wouldn't be in the top 10. They would barely grace the top 50.

Thanks for actually giving me proof and not being those people that say stuff and not prove it. I still consider them second-tier though, for a HEAVY METAL band. But there IS 1 band that's the worst out of all of them...

Posted by Michael on Tuesday, 10/30/2018 @ 16:15pm


They should be there, they are one of the biggest rock bands out there and after 50 years they are still rocking, I wonder how can we manage to get them there...

Posted by Eva Velázquez on Saturday, 11/3/2018 @ 17:43pm


@ Eva Velázquez

In order to induct Scorpions, we need Def Leppard, Motley Crue, Boston, Foreigner, Bad Company, Judas Priest, and Iron Maiden to get in first. So, that would probably take five to seven years.

Posted by The Dude on Saturday, 11/3/2018 @ 22:40pm


Now that Bon Jovi and Def Lepperd both are in, for predominately their 80's Rock material, the next in line, IMO would seem to lead to a Scorpions nomination. With their commercial Rock hits of the 80's being most notable and popular, their best work was from a 10 year period from 1974 to 1985. Consisting of 8 very good to great albums, plus 2 great live albums(Tokyo Tapes-1979, World Wide-1985), their catalogue is extensive. And although they did not get bigger in America til '79-'80 with Lovedrive and Animal Magnetism, true rockers in the States were jamming on the Virgin Killer, In Trance, and Taken By Force albums in the 70's, with my introduction being with the excellent Fly To the Rainbow album. Just making a case on the Scorpions being worthy and overdue for nomination. Any doubts, check out some of their earlier overlooked songs, Speedy's Coming, They Need A Million, In Trance, The Sails of Charon, We'll Burn the Sky, Catch Your Train, Pictured Life, Life's Like A River, Is There Anybody There?, You Give Me All I Need, Top Of the Bill, Steamrock Fever, The Zoo, Holiday, and a great instrumental, Animal Magnetism, plus many more.

@ Will N.

When it comes to hard rock/metal from the 70’s and 80’s, I think Motley Crue is next after Def Leppard. Once they join the ranks along with Foreigner, Boston, Bad Company, Judas Priest and Iron Maiden in the next few years, that should be enough for Scorpions to get in. They would also open doors for other bands from Germany like Can and Kraftwerk.

Posted by The Dude on Wednesday, 12/19/2018 @ 11:13am


@ the Dude, Thank you for the response. I get your logic on the Motley Crue deserved nomination. I think they are in a class by themselves. However, I don't think that the Crue not being in HOF would hurt the chances of a Scorpions nomination. My reasoning lies more in that Bon Jovi and Def Lepperd both had a lot of huge commercial rock hits, early to mid 80's, Scorpions and Motley Crue had quite a few also. Scorpions just have that extensive 70's catalogue that has to be recognized. Similar to Bad Company, who achieved their popularity with 5 solid Rock albums in the 70's, except the Scorps did not score any hits until early 80's. On Boston and Foreigner, I would group them together. Fantastic debut albums, Boston's is epic, 2nd album very good, the next 2 more average. Foreigner's next 4 records were very good, hard to consider them great. IMO, Judas Priest should already be inducted, kind of hit a snag, and may take a couple of years to be re-nominated. Iron Maiden could very well get a nomination for next year, but inducted IDK. If you are looking at commercial hits plus total catalogue, Styx might have one of the best resumes for nomination with their 70's and early 80's material, although their career took a bit of a nosedive when they broke up. As far as 70's and 80's Rock/Classic/Hard/Metal goes, any of these bands could get nominated, and I will throw in the Doobie Brothers to the mix also.

Posted by Will N. on Thursday, 12/20/2018 @ 00:11am


@ the Dude, One other thing, I have noticed a lot of you guys base your predictions on statistical knowledge, voting probability factoring, and doing the math on certain artists would need to get inducted, for another artist to get the required votes necessary, and all that. Which is cool and informative, where I probably go mostly with hunch and a sort of instinctive probability. Like with Roxy Music, kind of had a feeling they would be a dark horse selection.

ULI JON ROTH Says SCORPIONS Should Be In ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME

Posted by The Dude on Wednesday, 03/27/2019 @ 10:05am


60 Reasons why the Scorpions should be nominated for the RRHOF and inducted in the next class, and ahead of all those that came after. These are listed as personal preference, and in descending order..
1. - You Give Me All I Need(1982) -:- 2.- Holiday(1979)
3. - Speedy's Coming(1974) ..-:-..4.-The Zoo(1980)

57.-Living For Tomorrow(1985).-:-.58.-Dark Lady(1975)

59.-Woman(1993)..-:-.. 60.-Rhythm Of Love(1988)


I had forgot to include "Rhythm Of Love", which would have been up around #18, so had to put it at the end. This just highlights a long career and catalogue spanning 5 Decades of Rock, and showcases the diverse style of heavy, melodic, hard rock, acoustic, balladry and metal harmonies, whether explosive or light at times. Scorpions should never be overlooked.

The Scorpions..
Still rocking into their 5th decade and easily headlining the biggest concert Arena's to this day! That is crazy! Klaus Meine the lead singer is now 71 years old! He can still hit those screaming high notes! He has one of the purest and strongest rock voices of all time. Scorpions have one of the largest fan bases around the world, and to still be rocking at their age and sound incredible, it's sad they get snubbed every year.
They were on their retirement tour like 8 years ago and they sounded so good, the fans won't let them retire! By still attending their shows to max capacity!
So Artists like Randy Newman? Who? Yes I didn't studder! Randy Newman the Rock God! How about Gene Pitney? Another Rock legend right?  Yeah they are Rock & Roll Legends according to the H&F.  Oh sorry to say even though I liked a couple of their songs, Cheap Trick, who can't sell out Thunder Valley amphitheater with it's max 5,000 Capacity even with all those free tickets given out by the Casino, sad...)make the Hall of Fame!  While the Scorpions who easily fill to capacity 17,000 to 20,000 seat Arenas! And can easily bring to capacity soccer stadiums around the world, have sold 4 or 5 times more albums (over 100 Million sold), having more hits, and still commanding top billing get totally snubbed. This totally sucks major balls! Excuse my language!
There needs to be a separate Hall of Fame for each Genre, IMHO. This so called Rock and Roll Hall of Fame should be re-named/rebranded...to The Music Hall of Fame.  Started off as a good idea, but then probably due to money, they pimped it out!
It's a crying shame that the Scorps have been snubbed for so long, 5 decades of great music, and still selling out major Arena's 5 decades later! Let's see how many bands can say this? Hmm...1, The Rolling Stones, that's it! The Scorpions were born to rock big Arena's, and have been tagged one of the greatest Arena bands ever!  They're shows still kick ass and yet...Snubbed again.

Top 10 Possible reasons why the Scorpions will never make the Hall?

1. If you don't sellout your original music style and you stay true to your sound and fans, that can work against you.
2. If you don't use electronic drum beats and machines, that can work against you.
3. If you are still touring and selling out the biggest arena's, that's a negative by the H&F committee.
4. If you had more than 2 hits, that can work against you also.
5. If you are 10 times more popular around the World than in the USA and sell out soccer stadiums for over 5 decades, that is definitely frowned upon by the H&F.
6. If your songs were not played by bubble gum teenagers, then that is a negative as well.
7. If the majority of your songs and albums were played only by rock stations like 98.5 KZAP back in the day and not KROY pop station, you definitely draw a negative.
8. If you wrote songs and donated your concerts to help good causes and nations, that is also is a negative by the H&F.
9. If you have outsold 50% of the bands already inducted! That is a bad pisser to the H&F committee.
10. And finally if you are a German Rock band you have no chance!

Scorpions are currently touring in Australia with 3 shows, and 1 in New Zealand, for February. And then 1 show each in Indonesia, Singapore, and Manila in Phillipines, before returning back to the States for their Las Vegas residency shows in July..

The "Scorpions" not in the Hall of Fame, again. I've seen most of the acts that have been inducted, give me a break, T Rex is better, cheap trick, I do t think so. I've been to Rock and Roll hall of fame 3 times, good thing I went to the Pro football hall first, they dont leave out individuals that belong.

I like the song "Wind Of Change." That's the only Scorpions song I can think of other than "Rock You Like A Hurricane."

Posted by Brian Schonour on Monday, 07/4/2022 @ 21:50pm


The Scorpions should have been inducted many years ago. Incredible songs and longevity. They started back in the middle 1960's. Memorable songs like No One Like You, Rock You Like A Hurricane, Send Me An Angel, The Zoo, Wind Of Change, etc. Any song there could be the RRHOF ceremony finale. Things could work in Scorpions favor this cycle and in 2023-2024 and 2024-2025. Maybe, the RRHOF will not select Iron Maiden again and Motley Crue has supposedly been banned from the Hall. Judas Priest now has been inducted. They could just go with Soundgarden but Scorpions appear to be a bigger snub as years move along. I'm surprised they have never been nominated.

Just seen Scorpions in Fresno Ca, 10/07/22. They deserve it big time, this is a band that has gained different generation FANS! My Dad is in his late 60's, I'm 38 & my daughter is 16! We all rocked out at the concert, what other band out there right now can say the same! My daughter has been listening to them non stop & says she's so grateful to have seen these rock legends live. Again, WHAT other rock band currently out can say they will have different generations of fans? Hopefully 2022-2023 will be the Winds of Change for them cause I'm a Rock Believer! (And I'm corny af,

All HOFs are artificial contrivances. They all become political. The Scorpions should be more than satisfied that they are loved by millions and that in a few moments in time they positively impacted the world. If and when they get in the RRHOF they should graciously accept it and say, yeah thanks, whatever.

In the late 80's, the first Scorpions album I bought was World Wide live on audio cassette. Used to listen to that all the time and with friends on the way to the After the Gold Rush night club in Cottage Grove Minnesota. Then I bought the Savage Amusement album which was one of the best, followed by Crazy World, and Face the heat. Why crap like Eminem would get into the Rock Hall before these rock legends is a crying shame.
