All or Nothing

I have this album called 'All or Nothing', but there's no information about it's existence here or on the Europe's official webpage. WTF? -- Cannibal

Well I know that All Or Nothing is the first song on Europe's 1991 album Prisoners In Paradise, so maybe you have a single of that song? - Station82o

All or Nothing is a 'Greatest Hits' compilation. There are numerous Europe compilations available. I've chosen to list only the compilations that the band members themselves have put together - 1982-1992, its reissue 1982-2000, and Rock the Night. - Aphasia83 18:09, 14 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

categorizing

I don't think Europe should be categorized as a glam metal band, because they are not. They should be called a melodic hard rock band- ~~Aishah Bowron~~

1982-1992

I recently purchased Europe's greatest hits 1982-1992 and in the booklet, the band claims to have scored two #1 singles in the United States with songs "Carrie" and the "Final Countdown". This is from the album cover and they said that scored four top 20 singles form the album, The Final Countdown. I'm reading the booklet from the album. The band claimed to have scored two American #1 singles- Jason

I'm reading the 1982-1992 booklet right now, and it does claim that "Carrie" was number 1 in the US, and that the Final Countdown album scored four Top 20 singles. This is not true, however. "Carrie" was number 3, and "The Final Countdown" was number 8. The two other singles, "Rock the Night" and "Cherokee" were number 30 and number 72 respectively. - Aphasia83 21:05, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree with you. I just read the booklet and Europe had two #1 singles with both Carrie and The Final Countdown and that they scored four top twenty singles. I agree with the booklet.- Jason

Here's proof that the booklet is wrong. Chart info from Billboard.com (US Chart) - Aphasia83 01:36, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I still believe that the booklet is accurate. After all, you don't believe me when I said that Def Leppard's Pour Some Sugar on me was a number #1 and Love Bites only peaked at #2. Besides, after the controversy with the book, A Million Pieces, we all know that books can be wrong.- Jason

What? I can't remember talking to you about Def Leppard's chart positions, you must have mistaken me for someone else. - Aphasia83 19:19, 21 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry- Jason

No worries. - Aphasia83 15:18, 22 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Le baron boys

I put a mergeto tag on Le baron boys, even if you folks don't want to use the material please at least mention it somewhere and redirect so that no-one remakes the article. Kappa 13:06, 21 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, I didn't know there was a Wikipedia page for Le Baron Boys. Thanks for letting me know. I'll be sure to mention it in the Europe article. - Aphasia83 19:22, 21 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Europe being a power metal band

Absolutely ridiculous, it sounds nothing like power metal. Can anyone cite it? Psychomelodic (people think User:Psychomelodic/me ^edit) 11:22, 19 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

They wern't power metal but they were really influential to the genre.
