Fantastic tune this is the best simple minds line up ever totally incredible music

More better, than brilliant Lou …. But Lou is great!!!

Bad sound..with al do respect for you.

One of their best tunes. This feels a little slow but still excellent.

This should have been a global hit. Bring it back to the set list asap

Can't get my head round there ain't no actual live recordings

this sounds divine

This is the documentary that came out in the street fighting years box set. I have to dig out again.

First heard this at kessingland on holiday in 1987 everytime I hear it it brings bk so many memories especially the ending which is just beautiful

One of my favourite songs ever.

I Love this concert

I saw them at Roundhay park this year simply brilliant

Seems the younglings forget that Simple Minds released a group of cracker albums that no one bought. Even New Gold Dream kind of meandered in the charts. All those amazing shows they played and they finally cracked it, got some $ (Jim bought his wonderful parents a home 1st thing) then really blew it wide open with DYFAM and their audiences doubled at least so fast. What he remembers is the nights driving around the UK in a van, playing to 40 people, growing up in Toryglen with working class parents and a house full of boys. These kids coming at him about being rich lost the plot. They seem to be laying the world's problems at his feet, he saw himself as just a singer in a band that had finally made it. Anyone who thinks he sold out should find some footage of Werchter or other festivals where he put all of himself into it, laid himself out there trying to connect with those way in the back. I watched them climb and was so happy for them that they had finally got there. Once Upon A Time is one of my fav records, it sounds amazing today and there's so much enthusiasm jumping out. Why wouldn't he want everyone in the world to listen?

Difficult to describe how much I love this song, another genius song from them and one of my all time favorites on top ❤❤❤ simple minds forever

Great version factory n1 great live bamd

Vorrei che fosse la colonna sonora della vita !! Andrea da Parma 1965

Quelle merveille Quel duo ❤

Oh qué recuerdo!!!! Yo estuve ese día!!tenía 18 años!!! Adelante de todo y jim kerr en un momento seagacho y dejaba tocar su mano y yo se la toque!!! Estaba hermoso en esa época!!! Q bello recuerdo

But on saying that - Jim's voice quality and Mel Gaynor trying to put holes in his drums make this show awesome.

The whole Philadelphia concert, in my opinion, was spoiltt by a very poor stage set up.Background clutter, dudes standing around, shit evgrywhere. Just took much focus away from the bands performing. I mean look at the la la la la la bit. Jim is just surrounded by about 10 muppets with cameras. Stage setup and presentation is important - clutter sux

It is too fast. Mel's drum pattern is unnecessarily busy and Jim's struggling to sing it and keep up. Loses all its atmosphere and majesty. They played it again more recently with a lot more control. Shame as it's an absolute banger when done right. Weird that they didn't spot this themselves as they played it quite a lot on the OUAT tour. They did the same with Hunter and the Hunted and binned it off pretty quickly.

I saw SM in Paris a few weeks before this show. The Silencers were so good that night, I bought their album as soon as I got back to England. Still have it too.

People forget they're biggest hit wasn't written by them , don't you is by Keith Forsey drummer of giorgio moroder

Versione travolgente....!!!!, Jim Kerr in gran forma per il miglior concerto dei Simple Minds...!!!

Listenin 2024 ?

beste Version, die ich kenne.

Lovely toptonychick. This is awesome :)

It was a brilliant gig simple minds at their fantastic best

Simple Minds forever simply the best and amazing. I was there ❤

I remember this and the hope Jim gave that Mick might come back. He never did. They should have moved heaven and earth to make sure it happened.

I had a ticket for ibrox 1986 but I ended up pregnant so because I would have Bern on the pitch I was frightened to go. But finally saw them in glasgow 29th March for my 60th Birthday. They were amazing and so were Del Amitri

My first gig 17 years old, me and 3 mates travelled from Arbroath. Great music, got hammered with a cheap carry out. I seem to remember the Edinburgh tattoo fireworks going off as we walked back to the B&B............great days 😀😀

Seen Simple Minds many a time. Live, they are brilliant. This was just a blast from the way past.

Also gotta give them praise because the act they had to follow was Queen the band that is said to have killed the live aid show. Very hard act to follow. But Jim Kerr and Charlie burchill with their frontman guitar duo killed it.

I'm on my own with this one as I always felt it was a bit of a messy jam and lacked the cohesiveness of other tracks. Good energy though.

Sorry it's not good, a pale imitation of Waterfront with no real soul. It's just a generic rocker but miles away from the beautiful atmospheric tunes of the previous albums. There's a reason they never played it again...

They need mel back

He sounds like Billy Idol even now!

thank you.🇨🇿🌹🇯🇵👍☝️♥️🙏🧎

Fantastico concerto

Was down on the field soaking up the atmosphere, great gig.

Fascinating song, love this album..heard it the first time when I was 13y💕those were the times.

Great song! Awesome!

Mick semplicemente sublime....

The greatest and best ever

Amazing to hear this. I was at this concert. Goin to see them next week, 42 years on, it's unbelievable. I'm sure Jim had the white gear on at Tiffany's, those were the days!!

Velvet Underground cover

I never appreciated how perfect every element of this song is. From the tight drums and driving bass to the guitar flourishes and front and center synths. Great vocals too. No wonder it was such a hit. It's got it all.

Who remembers the amazing lightening storm at the end of this concert. Was an amazing day !!

Och , waffle waffle waffley.
