Scorpions Release 2017 Version of "Follow Your Heart"

Scorpions have recorded a new version of their ballad "Follow Your Heart" for a new compilation featuring the band's softer side. 

The compilation, Born to Touch Your Feelings - Best of Rock Ballads, features remastered, re-imagined and re-edited versions of the German rockers' biggest ballads—along with two new tracks.

The impetus for the release is the 40th anniversary of the band's song "Born to Touch Your Feelings." 

Frontman Klaus Meine says the band was inspired when it entered sessions for the new songs and had to comb through a number of great ideas.
