Heard this for first time at Royal Albert Hall two days ago. Love it and cant stop playing

[@DavidHarry]

Pure energy. This is my favourite OMD song and the best live recorded version. I love the slower album version and the Peel version but this is just perfection. My Mind's Made Up, My Heart Is Broke.........

[@chrishine2717]

We're losing our hearts just to say that we've won,lyrically speaking evocative thoughtful and sung in a way in which captivates the listeners full attention

[@rararara1961]

rough , raw so fuckin pure - lovvve it...!!!!

[@BuyOneGetOneFree]

Love this song and very clever lyrics. "We can't understand the advances we've made........" Quite prophetic as OMD were advanced a few thousand quid to make their first album and locked-in on a 7 album contract. Ended up owing the record company a million quid. The song ends on the band's pragmatic promise "We'll see you the same time, same place next year round,... with the same type of product.... and a very similar sound...!" So true of so many bands.
