==Live performances== Six songs from ''Fly to the Rainbow'' were regularly performed live by Scorpions: the title track, "Speedy's Coming", "They Need a Million", "This Is My Song", and "Drifting Sun". "Far Away" was already performed by early lineups with Michael Schenker, since at least 1973. The live versions of "Speedy's Coming" and the title track appear on the live album ''[[Tokyo Tapes (album)|Tokyo Tapes]]'', which was recorded in April 1978. Soon afterwards, Scorpions dropped these songs from their setlist. Between 1980 and 1999, nothing from ''Fly to the Rainbow'' appeared in Scorpions concerts.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.setlist.fm/stats/albums/scorpions-3d63ddf.html|title=Scorpions Album Statistics |website=Setlist.fm|access-date=30 November 2021}}</ref> Following a one-off performance of ''They Need a Million'' on 7 June 1999 at Patinoire de Kockelscheuer, Luxembourg,<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.setlist.fm/stats/songs/scorpions-3d63ddf.html?songid=53d40b09|title=They Need a Million by Scorpions Song Statistics |website=Setlist.fm|access-date=30 November 2021}}</ref> the title tune and "Speedy's Coming" were performed a number of times between 2000 and 2008.
