Released in 1984 on their massively successful album Love at First Sting, "Still Loving You" became a signature song for German rock legends Scorpions. A quintessential 80s power ballad, it showcased their melodic sensibilities within their Hard Rock framework, touching on the emotional themes often associated with Glam Metal. Written by Meine and Schenker, it conquered global charts, especially across Europe.
"Still Loving You" achieved enormous international success, becoming a phenomenon particularly in several European countries. Klaus Meine's passionate vocal delivery and Matthias Jabs' emotive guitar solo perfectly capture the song's desperate plea for another chance. Decades later, it stands as one of the defining power ballads of the 1980s – an intense love song about regret, longing, and the enduring hope for reconciliation.
SONG MEANING: "Still Loving You" is a powerful expression of deep regret and a desperate plea to rekindle a broken or failing relationship. The singer acknowledges that pride or past actions have created barriers ("Your pride has built a wall") but passionately asks for forgiveness and another opportunity ("Try, baby try / To trust in my love again"), affirming that despite the pain ("things that killed our love"), their profound love remains strong and unwavering.
