Simple Minds have been musical pioneers for 40 glittering years. Catching the mood of the post-punk era, when the angry sounds of 1977 were splintering into a thousand different shapes, they emerged with a style rooted in the art-rock of David Bowie and the electronic dance of Donna Summer. They went on to become one of the great bands of their generation, deploying rousing choruses and booming atmospherics to provide a soundtrack that has endured. They topped the American chart with Don't You (Forget About Me) and followed suit in the UK with the Ballad Of The Streets EP (featuring Belfast Child). In selling over 60 million records, they have seen three of their 20 studio albums reach number one in the UK - Sparkle In The Rain, Once Upon A Time and Street Fighting Years - a chart-topping feat equalled by their live album Live In The City Of Light and the compilation Glittering Prize. A spellbinding touring band, they have graced the world's biggest stadiums. They starred at Live Aid and played three momentous London shows in honour of Nelson Mandela. The past decade has also seen a remarkable resurgence, their world-class credentials acknowledged by a Q magazine Inspiration award in 2014 and an Ivor Novello in 2016. They are now marking their 40th anniversary with a world tour, live album and career-spanning compilation.

Shine on, shine the lights on me In all of my life so that much more I see In the light of his love In the light of reflection What a world this world Sometimes oh so it seems Eyes to the sky in the silver gift friendship Glittering prize Is the price of lost love They can remember quiet side of midnight They can remember attraction of fame Like a glittering prize I saw you up on a clear day First taking heart Then our last breath away Always came a time Time was by your side We were spending time We were starting out Catch me in a dream Captured all in heart We were spending time We were starting out Could there ever be Ever more than one Called an act of love Can you never stop? Shine on, shine the light on me In all of my life So that much more I see Like a glittering prize I saw you up on a clear day First taking hearts Then our last breath away Only on a clear day Coming in on our lives Only on a clear day Coming in on our life We can remember quiet side of midnight We can remember attraction of fame Like a glittering prize I saw you up on a clear day First taking hearts Then our last breath away See it in the eyes Satellite sky We were spending time We were starting out Take in, take in more Endless breath away We were starting out Now we're staring in Could there ever be Ever more than one Called an act of love Can you never stop? Shine on, shine the lights on me In all of my life, so that much more I see Like a glittering prize I saw you up on a clear day First taking hearts Then our last breath away Only on a clear day Coming in on our life Always on a clear day This is the price of love Like a glittering prize Only on a clear day Rushing into our life Is like the price of love Like a glittering prize Only on a clear day Rushing into our life Like a glittering prize

[@GiorniVenibato]

That's mine all time fave Simple minds song. Glad I didn't miss this late performance of them. La Perfezione.

[@johnjarvis9816]

Saw them Milton Keynes bowl 86, rained all day, Unbelievable though!! Talk Talk were one of the support acts.

[@stillyes8171]

One of my favourite albums of the early 80's was New Gold Dream. One of my favourite albums in the later 80's was the Couloirs of Spring. To see them both (Simple Minds and Talk Talk) on the same bill is like someone from an earlier generation saying they seen the (Rolling Stones and the Beatles) on the same bill. Green with envy. So... Jealous.

[@stevegordon2032]

I saw them at Gateshead stadium in 1990 and it absolutely stotted down with rain. The speakers at each side of the stage were about 40 ft high and I remember the sound reverberated up through the ground. It was just awesome.
