Even a very small telescope can show you an object called 3C273, a quasar in Virgo that is 3 billion light-years distant. But most objects that are interesting to look at aren't that far away. What you really want with a telescope is light-gathering power to see fainter things, not farther things.
On May 26 and 27, 1986, Europe played at the Solnahallen arena near Stockholm, footage of which was compiled for a home video called The Final Countdown Tour 1986. During these shows, director Nick Morris filmed the band being filmed, which was used for the music video to this song.
The date was August 20, 1969. The Beatles were recording what was to be their final album, Abbey Road. The date is important (and historic), although the boys probably had no idea of its significance. August 20, 1969, was the last time the four Beatles were together in the recording studio. They were recording the final over-dubs of John's song I Want You (She's So Heavy), a stark, raw love song written by John. The band's final session was spent working on a fervent love song to Yoko Ono.
