Wind of Change


The original key of the song Wind of Change by Scorpions is D major. This iconic ballad was released in 1990 and is often associated with the fall of the Berlin Wall and the end of the Cold War.

Notable for its powerful and emotional melody, Wind of Change became a symbol of hope and transformation.
