Europe Never Tired Of Megahit 'The Final Countdown'
. (Classic Rock) Europe drummer Ian Haugland says he'll never tire of playing The Final countdown live. Despite having played it countless times, Haugland can't get enough of seeing audiences lose their minds when they hear it in concert. The 1986 single - taken from the album of the same name - reached number one in 25 countries and is still a live staple to this day. Haugland tells One On One With Mitch Lafon: "We will always be connected to The Final Countdown, absolutely. We will never have a hit as big as that. You can look at that in different manners. "I see it as a big advantage because The Final Countdown gives us the opportunity to create new music. If it wasn't for The Final Countdown we wouldn't be here today. It's more of a blessing than a curse. "People often ask me if we get tired of playing it, because we've played it a million times. But I always say no, because every time it's like the first time."
