I remember seeing this on TOTP. I was 8. I went and bought a C60 cassette the next day to record it on the charts radio on the following Sunday. I knew it even so young, that they were a special band from my part of Glasgow.
When I first heard this, I couldn't believe he would have such a voice like this. But then again so many 80's bands looked so that young, yet had these amazing voices. Still love them even now even my kids grew up loving a lot of 80's music. Miss those days sometimes. We had such an awesome choice of different music styles . 👌💖🧑
I was born in the mid 80s so this came out a little before my time 😂 however I had quite young parents who never stopped telling me 80s music was the best, now 36 years of age, I can see where they were at, I don’t think there was a better era for the diversity of music that came out in the 80s.
I love Jim's body expression here, his joy of live performing and Charlie's sweet smile.
Young and very talented boys. Unbeliveable.

What a creative time!
It's a shame we're so devoid of this now

back to 80's nice stuff
Awesome, keep 'em coming!
Simple minds did look like any other 80’s band but it was their sound that was unique and way ahead of the rest ie NEW GOLD DREAM !! 👌
Very picturesque performance on vocal miming by a dude clearly that's quite clearly very very high on life. 😉
Absolute classic
This song gets closer to putting me in a trance than any other track I can think of.
bad ass group
After some years. Again in Lisbon 25/04/2022. When Portuguese Revolution made 48 years old. Abraço. Lisboa Portugal 🇵🇹
Miles better than anything else they ever did, although Glittering Prize is also good.
poor man's U2
Nonsense. A stupid comment.
More depth to SM music than anything U2 ever did, and U2’s lead singer is a complete wanker
Nah the two are poles apart
@@davidhickman2451 thank you, someone said it!
Both simple minds and u2 are great bands in all aspects
