Simple Minds Alive and Kicking.

Simple Minds Rule.

[@Isaiah6113]

Been listening to this for almost 40 years. It is embedded in my bones.

[@hectorlabbe]

Wow! I feel the same!!! ‘Embedded in my bones’ is so powerful! Still giving me goosebumps, that’s the 80’s magic 😊

[@monroeboy80]

The female vocalist her voice always makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up-very talented vocalist.

[@user-mu9es8vu1f]

Its True!

[@patriciahart5228]

Me too

[@patriciahart5228]

Everything about this song is perfection. But the bass player on the edge of the cliff makes me nervous.

[@gregorydiatchenko8464]

I love it! Same here!

[@andreagentile3408]

Who is she? I was there!

[@dirtysouthlepluv]

This is one of the greatest 80's songs ever! Just the opening synth alone is amazing. I love Jim Kerr's voice...it's very powerful and soothing at the same time :D

[@chrisyasus8912]

Went all the way to number 2 If it went back to back with don't you forget about me... we would be talking so much more bout them. Such a good tune

[@brendology]

This song is so awsome. Wish we could bring back the 80's, best time of my life.

[@frits4ever]

This song full volume in my 1985 sport's car with the sunroof open on a nice summer day makes me the happiest man in the world . Can not be better than this ! The melody at the beginning is amazing . Trully pierced me when i heard it the first time at school !

[@willin1]

Always imagine something like that...with sunshine passing through trees

[@chrisyasus8912]

I play it once a week maybe more brother

[@nosoupforyou6321]

Original comment 9 yrs ago! 9 yrs on and it's still a great song

[@RonTaboga]

What happened to music in our present days? This is so freaking awesome and powerful!!! Love it!!!

[@TheJPCFilms]

SIMPLE MINDS WERE AWESOME IN THE '80'S, AND THEIR MUSIC IS STILL AMAZING!!!!!!! UP THERE WITH U2.

[@damosvas8195]

I've known this song for years. I am now realizing the greatness of this band

[@peaceiliveby]

Ditto !! I'm 54.....loving it ....

[@dmvdet]

This is a prime example of what we can keep from the 80s. AMAAAAZING song. So much passion. We DO NOT find poetry in music anymore like this!

[@hectorlabbe]

So trueeeee!!! I saw SM twice and never got disappointed. Passion is missing in the 21st Century!!!!

[@TheRockstarwarrior]

I've been listening to this piece for 25 years ... and I will still be, long into the future. Brilliant !

[@smellygoatacres]

When I had hair, six pack abs, and my '77 Ford F-100. Great memories.

[@eddiegozen]

This song reminds me the best times of my life, when the music was music, the ladies were ladies, and the cars were pure hp's !

[@heyjohnnyjohnny]

I miss the 80's every day.

[@msbrownbeastie]

Absolutely love this song, brings back sweet memories of the 80s.

[@bowtie-man]

For some reason, the 80s music never gets old.🤙🤙👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👊👊✌️✌️

[@firstmusic00]

25 years on...this song still rocks!!!!

[@eurapeon]

i'd never seen the band before... but watching this video now, i'm overcome with the simple fact that this is one of the best songs ever written.

[@wickedout2010]

This was truly A great band in the 80's! I love this song!!

[@bonscottrocks1728]

You turn me on You lift me up Like the sweetest cup I'd share with you You lift me up Don't you ever stop, I'm here with you Now it's all or nothing 'Cause you say you'll follow through You follow me, and I, I, I follow you What you gonna do when things go wrong? What you gonna do when it all cracks up? What you gonna do when the love burns down? What you gonna do when the flames go up? Who is gonna come and turn the tide? What's it gonna take to make a dream survive? Who's got the touch to calm the storm inside? Who's gonna save you? Alive and kicking Stay until your love is Alive and kicking Stay 'til your love is Until your love is, alive Oh You lift me up To the crucial top, so I can see Oh you lead me on till the feelings come and the lights that shine on But if that don't mean nothing Like if someday it should fall through You'll take me home where the magic's from And I'll be with you What you gonna do when things go wrong? What you gonna do when it all cracks up? What you gonna do when the love burns down? What you gonna do when the flames go up? Who is gonna come and turn the tide? What's it gonna take to make a dream survive? Who's got the touch to calm the storm inside? Don't say goodbye, don't say goodbye In the final seconds who's gonna save you? Ooh oh, oh oh Alive and kicking Oh stay until your love is, love is Alive and kicking Ooh oh, oh oh Alive and kicking Oh stay until your love is, love is Alive and kicking Ooh oh Alive and kicking Stay until your love is Alive and kicking, oh Stay until your love is Alive and kicking, oh

[@tonyzackery]

I feel fortunate to have been able to grow up with this kind of music. I feel bad for the kids today.

[@adrianacc1974]

Me encanta esta canción, es una de mis favoritas de todos los tiempos.

[@shippermd]

STILL so Cool and Intense, all these decades later!!🥰

[@glendaw370]

I needed a lift during these dark days . I'm glad I can be turned up by Simple Minds. ❤

[@daddybug101]

Simple Minds; simply fantastic; simply uplifting; simply ethereal; 80's music mastering at its very best.

[@pete2784]

Really, really great stuff. It can't get much better than this. An everlasting gem! The build-up to crescendo from 3.23-4:20 is just magic. Love it!

[@anotherbrickinthewall1700]

STILL stupendous. Glad I bought the album almost 40yrs (!) ago.

[@twinturbo3461]

Awesome song, awesome voice. These guys made some really good tunes.

[@toddp3111]

This song literally gives me goosebumps when I hear it. Fantastic!

[@peterriley2022]

This song could very well be the quintessential song of the eighties

[@horv67]

Yesterday I was thinking about this song , It´s so beatiful. sometimes I walked on salinas beach and my felling cross my childholl life. The music of this time is Bad , it don´t have name and soul .

[@user-dm9sb7sc9m]

Veliki hit , pesma koju i dan danas rado slušam.

[@guzrod1973]

Great song had the pleasure to see the LIVE back in the 80's and for the price I paid it was worth it .Not like today only lip singing yet people pay so much money to see them not to listen to todays artists.>

[@deedee2020able]

This song brings me back to when I first moved to Cali in the 80's....blastin' the song & crusin' along the Pacific...wind in my hair & singin' at the top of my lungs....

[@brucedanton]

Thank you for uplifting this track-it brings back so many memories! Alive and Kicking by Simple Minds is now 25 years old, having been first released in October 1985 and then again in October 1992.

[@riseofthemachine2623]

I remember watching this video on MTV and thinking "God, John...Get away from that ledge! (RIP John Giblin). What I didn't notice is that I was watching a video song from an 80's band that would stand the test of time.

[@motaloca]

Long hair, black t-shirt, jeans, DocMaartens , bus fareand a beer! Yet I find myself listening to this. Awesome!

[@tuxmix]

NEVER STOP THIS MUSIC....FOOD FOR MY SPIRIT !!! THANKS

[@ramoneschick1]

My fathers going to see these on Saturday, i was pretty much raised on these and think their music is definitely timeless and never grows old, brilliant group!

[@Roxtqz]

Wonderfulll song, SIMPLE MINDS AINDA VIVE EM NOSSAS MENTES E CORAÇÕES SIMPLE MINDS FOREVER - survivor fan from Brazil

[@budsodalsky]

That drummer's face is the best!!

[@analogsynthplayer]

[@ricmarc]

I saw simple minds right after this record came out at some university close to chicago. it was rather a small venue. they were SUPERB! have been a fan ever since.

[@FinsRacksOutdoors]

[@LIVERNIL723]

Football's my life and I want this tune played at my wedding should I e. ventually get married - simple minds is world class. I have high hopes for England next year - please win it for the late Sir Bobby Robson - that would really make me happy.

Praise God for He is worthy of all praise forever and ever. He is the Master and Saviour of us all. His Love is always Alive and Kicking for everyone of us. The Father sent the Son to die for our sins and Reconciliation was made for us through Jesus Christ back to our Father in Heaven forever.

[@Kroetoman]

Don't know why the 80's are most impressing for me yet. I'm glad to know some people out in the world, sharing the feeling i've got, when i listen to these old things.

[@raslfasl]

The 80's sounded so good. I am only 29 and I feel so sorry for today's young generation ..they are deprived of good music in favor of "good looks"Image should come second when it comes to music if at all.

[@euskadino]

Those high school memories! He reminds me of Bono from U2. Aren't their voices similar? The black lady has a great voice as well, and the piano, and the video are all excellent! What an 80's classic!

[@enmaxus]
