"The Final Countdown" is the best song ever made.

This song should be national anthem for Planet Earth, so if we had to go to war with any pesky aliens it could be played to troops all over the world to phsyche them up for battle. Then we'd totally win.

Anyway, I doubt there is a song that is as awe inspiring and downright great as "The Final Countdown" - it never fails to impress me no matter where I am. It's seriously just the greatest thing ever.

It should be played for the climax of EVERY movie, and for 90% of them it would drastically improve the movie as a whole.

IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN

If the men of property will not support us, they must fall. Our strength shall come from that great and respectable class, the men of no property.

If you need to hear it, do an amazon search and sample it.

If we were to go to war with aliens, as much as I regret suggesting a german, Rammstein's 'Adios' in the album 'Mutter' would be perfect. If not that, Black Sabbath's 'Paranoid' or Led Zeppelin's, well... anything, actually.

Music makes the world go whoosh!

Indeed, it is quite the kick-ass song. Too bad the movie sucked more than a highly efficient Shop-Vac.

Seriously, it was such a bad movie.

I thought I was the only person on Ng who liked that song :o

I had this guy on my dorm floor who loved that song. He always played it, and decided it would be the floor anthem. He dropped out, and as he walked off the floor one last time, all 40 rooms had their laptops, computers, and steroes blaring full blast, "THIS IS THE FIIIINAAAAL COOUNTDOOOWN!"

Here's the lyrics:

(Joey Tempest)

We're leaving together,
But still it's farewell
And maybe we'll come back,
To earth, who can tell ?
I guess there is no one to blame
We're leaving ground
Will things ever be the same again?

It's the final countdown...

We're heading for Venus and still we stand tall
Cause maybe they've seen us and welcome us all
With so many light years to go and things to be found
I'm sure that we'll all miss her so.
