We all know our beloved Glam bands made some crazy videos back in the day. Some have stood the test of time...and others, well...not so much.
You remember Europe, right? You know "The Final Countdown." That's a good song - even if it's about aliens or traveling to Venus or whatever. So, we've established "bonkers" is the norm for the Swedish band - but what about Native Americans?
I don't know how it's possible - but I swear the first time I ever saw the video for "Cherokee" was about 12 hours ago. Oh, how did I live without knowing of this video's existence?
As a song, "Cherokee" is pretty good - but the video seems crazy to me. Maybe it's watching a Glam band playing during a stampede in the mountains?
I wonder why Europe isn't rumored for Rocklahoma? Every other band of the genre has at least been mentioned. I know Europe still have a lot of fans in the United States - and everyone knows the words to "The Final Countdown" and "Carrie." Here's some other food for thought: the band is curiously open during the weekend of Rocklahoma (and therefore the South Texas Rock Fest). They are playing Rockweekend in Sweden on July 18. Seems there would be plenty of time to jump to the States, play Rocklahoma (or South Texas) and fly back over to their homeland.
Speaking of crazy - Europe has the oddest website I've ever seen. It honestly made me jump the first time I clicked onto their page. Don't believe me? See for yourself by clicking here. Don't say I didn't warn you.

I had wondered myself, why they weren't even rumored for Rocklahoma, they would fit so well. AND they are an excellent live band. Kingdom Come plays only ROK too, right? If they can do it, Europe can do it too. =) I doubt it will happen, but it would be great.
Europe is a really good band, yesterday i heard them on the radio. They´re forever.
I just don't care for them. Not my cup of tea. Nice teeth and perms though.
I would love to see them live some day
