The Final Countdown

Swedish rock band Europe hit the top 40 four times in the late 1980s, including two singles that hit the top ten, starting with what is their most famous hit, “The Final Countdown.”  Exactly 25 years ago today, “The Final Countdown” peaked at number 8 on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart.

While it’s their first hit and their most well-known hit, “The Final Countdown” was not Europe’s biggest hit, at least in terms of chart performance.  That song came later that year, when “Carrie” hit number 3 in October of 1987.
