I love this song and video

German precision and discipline in the performance and one of my favorite songs of ACCEPT

I've never heard a bad song from these guys. They are just freakin' awesome, and they'll be till the end of the world. :) Final Countdown is good and popular, but Prisoners is fantastic.:) Joey put his heart and soul in this lyrics and his voice is the best I've ever heard. The guitar solo just blows me awaaay, and the ending of this song with piano is just...just no words. They're the fucking kings of this world.:)

2021 and this is still a masterpiece after 30 years .... Forever...❤️

This song rings true to many of us and our lives. One of the most meaningful and powerful for me personally, not to mention melodic and melancholic. *Just like prisoners in paradise* - We live in such an amazing world, a beautiful planet (paradise), but we are imprisoned by our troubled minds, unclear desires and neverending wants that can never seem to be free (prisoner). *So close but yet so far* - we are right here in the most beautiful planet in the galaxy but yet we fail to realize it. The best possible reality for us seems so distant in our mind. But in the physical reality, what we have at this current moment, right NOW, is the best possible thing at the best possible time. The past is dead and who knows if we’ll live to see tomorrow? *We have it all but still we want more* - Often, we feel life is not enough, can have more & can be better. We are ever so greedy that it’s this greed that has imprisoned us.’ *We’re just children of tomorrow, hanging on to yesterday* - We always think the past is better; the 70’s, the 80’s, the 90’s. We are trying to escape from the ‘Now’ because we are not satisfied with what we have now. We cannot let go of the past because we are afraid to face the tomorrow, thinking it will just be worse. Cheers to great songs!

🤩🔥👏

Que linda essa música!! Amo Europe!!

Just discovered this song today 2022, what a masterpiece.

Lyrics "Prisoners In Paradise" I want to learn how to fly I want to be respected I want to get lucky I want to get out of this dump I just want to watch TV I want to be loved I want to be different I want a brother and sister I'd just rather be forgotten I want to save the world I want to be understood I want to be rich Man, I just want to be somebody Julie's got the word today She lost her job just one last pay Life don't come easy anymore Still strugglin'on by herself Got a picture of Jimmy There on the shelf And she looks at him and says Why did we let it go I know that sometimes baby We didn't see things eye-to-eye But I got just one question Did we have to say goodbye Just like prisoners in paradise Still far from heaven's door We had it all but still we Wanted more Now I realize that I can't Turn back the future's here To stay but hey We're just children of tomorrow Hangin' on to yesterday Jimmy still recalls the night When he took his guitar And headed on out To find the big time That was his dream He gave up his past And made it alright But there's something missin' In his heart tonight Sometimes what you want Ain't what you need He misses drivin' down To the lake at night Holdin' his baby In his arms so tight Ain't it hard to find illusions When you're livin' in a memory Just like prisoners in paradise So close but yet so far There will come a time No matter who you are When you ask yourself Was it right or wrong For me to turn away but hey We're just children of tomorrow Hangin' on to yesterday

I bought this album the week it came out. Haven’t heard this song in 20 years. Words came back immediately, this is such an amazing song.

Amo mais e mais,a cada música!! Europe 😍😎😍

Música linda, voz maravilhosa, banda fantástica e um vocalista de extraordinária beleza. O que está faltando para esse vídeo está perfeito? Nada! Ele é perfeito. Te amo Europe.

existem com certeza as outras músicas deles essa banda não tem pra ninguém amo Europe e joey vocalista lindo maravilhoso

Europe at their best, Prisoners in Paradise is one of my all time favourite albums but it sadly got lost in the emergence of grunge! Kee Marcelo what a player, I like John Norum but for me the quality of their writing and playing peaked with Kee.

1:31. Direto do céu para a Terra. Anjo lindo e encantador. Voz perfeita!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

just beautiful!!! the best melodic and harmony rock ever!!!🤘

The lyrics, the compositions,their performance,everything fits. This is so good!

5:29. Não só a beleza do homem, más também o coração, a alma e a inteligência para nos presentear com essa verdadeira obra de arte. Te amo Joey Tempest! Para sempre Europe!

1/11/21 e eu aqui novamente, amando essas obras de Deus! Lindos e ainda cantam desse jeito💙🖤😍🤘🤘

Escuchándolos en el 2022. Impresionante banda! Saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷

This song is soooo amazing...Lots of soul and I love the lead guitar when the whole bands enter. Also, it reminds me of Queen in some parts, because of the awesome backing vocals, harmonized guitars and piano parts.

The band of my youth, adulthood and old age. 💖💖💖💖💖

Their music never gets old

Essa intro é sensacional 🤩🎸

Meu Deus esse homem é tudo de lindo amo ele .🐯💝💋amo essa banda , valeu europe, vocês, são incrível,

Conheci esses caras em 2008 e desde então, nunca parei de ouvir.Viva o Rock!!!!

Me lleva aún tiempo desconocido. Dónde hacían música de verdad. Sin duda la música en su mejor momento Europa siempre tocando tan bien.

Wonderful song and Joey's crystal clear voice!!!!!! Never bored!!!!!

One of the best rock bands of the 80s & 90s

it's hard to find illusions when you're living in a memory,,,, !! Been more than 2 decades I'm still listening,,, greatest of the greatest hits of all time

Adoro essa banda

I have been a fan of Europe since 1986. I even listened to their previous albums (Europe and Wings Of Tomorrow). They are fantastic and bloody brilliant. I finally met them in NYC (Ian and Mic) and later in Orlando Florida

Joey Tempest e sua imensa sensibilidade para compor essa música tão perfeita. Letra, melodia e sua voz de anjo que é capaz de nos conduzir ao céu. Maravilhoso para a eternidade.

Sometimes, listening to songs like this, I get the feeling that the emotions are as infinite as the universe.

This whole album is so great and this is one of my favorite tracks, such phenomenal lyrics and great guitar!

I love Joey's total involvement in his wonderful singing!!!!

guau me acuerdo cuando los escuche por primera vez a los 14 años nos habian llevado a pasear a escobar provincia de buenos aires y empezo a sonar la ultima regresiva me compre el cassette y son mis idolos desde ese momento hoy tengo 48 años y los sigo escuchando

Europa umas das melhores banda dos anos 80 até hoje!💘

Europe has always put out out awesome songs I love them all Europe rocks this song is a great masterpiece love prisoners in paradise by Europe

One of Europes best songs. Very underrated. From my country came also Roxette and ABBA but for me Europe is always the best band with some unusual sound. Talanted guitar players both Kee Marcello and John Norum.

Great band, great songs. 🎶🎧👏👏👏

Замечательный голос, замечательная музыка , жаль что все прошло, но вырос эксклюзив!

This is such a pure and gorgeous song. Just a stellar piece of songwriting.

Joey's voice, performance are awesome. I love Europe songs, in specific "out of this world" Album songs.

Yeah,still listening in 2021 ....n till the end of time .....No other music inspirs like the ones in 80s,90s bands ...those rock ballads ....the world miss those lovely days ...

¡¡Me encanta esta canción!! ¡El solo de guitarra es espectacular! Todos en su instrumento hacen de este un tema brutalmente hermoso. Y la verdad es que, aunque Joey Tempest nunca me ha gustado, hay que reconocer que aquí está en su momento: hace que vivas el tema. Todos están guapísimos, es difícil mirar sólo para uno de ellos. ¡Un saludo a todos los amantes de la buena música!

Song when I was in high school. I listened to this song when there was only cassette. I am now 44 yo. Still my favorite song. Damn!

Still listening in 2020 and will keep on listening!! .Anyone ?

Espectacular banda. Todos sus temas son buenos.siempre quise conocerlos.

Sometimes you don't need something but just listening to this song and it's makes you feel good

Liindas musicas

maravilhoso rever essas reliquias..lindo

Criação divina! Amo essa banda e todas as suas músicas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Adorei o vídeo parabéns meu ídolo... Que saudade linda música Boa de qualidade!!!!

Amooooooooooo essa banda Ó vocalista que lindo Joey que voz não tem pra ninguém

Amo essa banda maravilhosa desde 86,gostaria que eles vivessem no Brasil ❤

Nobody is making such good music anymore...

Ésto es arte, música y es de verdad, y dan un mensaje valioso. Es de tenerlo en el casete para la posteridad. Es UNA GRAN JOYA DE LO QUE ES LA VERDADERA MÚSICA.

Linda canción me gustó 🙂

It’s 2022, my life is falling to pieces but i still rock some good old music out. Like this.

Amo esta banda, EUROPE POR SIEMPRE

The melody, the lyrics and how they both fit together...genious. What about just one lucky hitsong like The Final Countdown? Another classic written by this genious band (singer).

I am a fan of Europe band since when I was young they made a lot of beautiful songs like this one. I would say to profanes that they are not only The Final Countdown ;)

How time flies. I vividly remember my excitement when I went into my local record store to buy this album on cassette tape when it came out. Must have been 15 or 16 at the time.

Que maravilloso grupo por dios

Quelle merveille,superbe à écouter.Une pure beauté.Merci Europe.💯💛💚🧡❤💜💙

I saw this live on Sweden Rock Festival this year. One of the best moments of my life.

one of the best guiter solo and a real rock music

2:14. Muita beleza, meu Deus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amazing track ❤️👍

Killer lyrics. What a powerful message.

Guitar solo ,drums,vocal and lyrics amazing.love it. Perfect

Again and again I listen to this wonderful song and VOICE!!!!

I believe that this is one of the best songs ever written in the history of human being. Love from Japan.

fantastic song with fantastic singer

Un temazo a la altura de sus grandes éxitos.

I love their melodic rock so catchy

A underrated song by a underrated band. Love this song !

Perfect rythm, perfect voice and a killing end, with chills...

There's a lot of fans still listening the great music. This the best music ever. 80'S I grew up listening this music on MTV. In El Salvador and now in USA always, u2, Queen, Poison, Van Halen, White Snake, Tears for Fear , Depeche Mode, etc. I love it.

A Beautyful song.joey is a good songwriter.goosebumbs pure.

legendary rock band

Excelente, impecable!!!!

I grew up with this band and love it so much. when I was in high school, this song touched me so much, the thing can happen like this we are acting not as we feel. I missed those days. Real music

The album that went under the radar, 1992 was a rough year for 80's bands.

Music And lyrics And interpretation Everything Wow 🤩

Europe sempre sensacional!!

Hermoso volver a verlos genios totales 🇦🇷👏👏👏❤

“Jamais deixe que a sua felicidade dependa dos outros. Eles não deixariam de ser feliz por você.”

Musica da minha vida, só o ouro. 🇧🇷❤️

All their songs are good. One of greatest 80s rock band

Love the band since my teenage years !!! 🥰👊💜

Europe ontem hoje é sempre perfeito lindo 💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟

Love Europe forever and ever!!!🎶🤘🎸🎤❤
