    To my musical tastes, I can vouch Nik kershaw is unique in his melody and arrangement and would place him with artists like Al Stewart, Jim Croce, Gordon Lightfoot and bands like the Moody Blues, Jethro Tull etc. He is amazing.

    On Live Aid day Kershaw was the biggest new pop star on the bill... this song was a reasonable hit that summer. I love the song. Great band.

    Ich fand Nik Kershaw damals
    großartig, kann mich aber nicht an dieses Lied erinnern schade eigentlich das ist echt schön
    Und er hat mit seiner Band einen tollen Auftritt hingelegt, den Mut muss man auch erstmal aufbringen als relativ unerfahrener Anfänger sich mit all diesen Grössen auf eine Bühne und vor das selbe Publikum zu stellen
    Er war toll

    Why do so many people judge on Nik Kershaw and his songs? Saying he is artless, not good, trash and has no talent? And also saying this song is trash? You people must realise Nik Kershaw is way way more talented than you actually think. You haters need to stop judging on this man. People write there own songs to show what they can do and this man really did show off a huge talent that just wasn't noticed enough by the public. You haters come here to hate what is the actual need for it? Really it's just stupid and childish, your all like adults and you still act like children? You lot need to grow up and stop hating on someone for doing there own thing, Nik never did anything to you lot. Imagine hating on someone and there songs that could have took ages to make. Nik Kershaw is No1 and honestly the best musical artist to exist. It's such a shame he wasn't noticed enough :/ (no changing my opinion)

      People today are so sad ..all they do is criticise. Back in the 80s Nik was such a cool guy everyone I knew liked his music. Certainly better than a lot of the garbage produced today!!

Nik had pure talent and still does, loads of 80s artists do and still do till this day! older music will always be better than music today.

      I cannot really , as basically it would just be a series of clips edited together. The Band Aid trust have access to all the source material , so they can upload a complete artist's set without breaks. I am always thinking of how they can generate more money for the Trust , and also have a chance to watch the whole concert , rather than just a series of individual clips. Hopefully, for the 40th Aniv , they will make the **FULL** concert available for everyone with 5.1 Audio , up-scaled with modern Ai to 1080p. I doubt they will do it , but we can hope eh?. We know that they have the source material..

      @@teddystacker There’s no real need to upscale the footage recorded in London to be upscaled to 1080p. There was an analog camera crew in Wembley who recorded most of the event in 1080p, and Band Aid knows of it, but they refuse to utilise it for some reason.

    Your mind can play tricks
    Makes you what you want to be
    Just like superheroes
    You saw them on TV
    Coast to coast, wall to wall
    Got to go, duty calls
    Here I am (here I am)
    Superman, Lois Lane
    Saved the world, back again
    Here I am
    In my old, red saloon
    I'm a knight in shining armour
    If I were asleep, man
    I couldn't be much calmer
    Hit the road, on the run
    Faster than anyone
    Here I am
    One for all, all for one
    Shake the fist, shoot the gun
    Here I am

    Are we shouting at windmills like you?
    Common sense, is as good
    As a cafe' on the moon
    When man and machinery come to their high noon
    Radio on the blink
    Kick the cat, hit the drink
    Here I am
    Beat the clock, punch the wall
    Fixed in no time at all

    It's interesting. Nik Kershaw and his band may have been the tightest and most faithful to their albums of any band at Live Aid, and yet they didn't really get the crowd going like David Bowie or Queen.

      Both Queen and Bowie had been playing a lot longer than Nik at the time though,therefore they were more well known and loved.Although I can understand what you mean,Nik played amazingly at live aid!
