Simple Minds- New Gold Dream 1982 demo

[@jean-paulmoreau7178]

This band combines so many cool aspects - melodies, poetry, dreamy guitar riffs and strong vocals.... and great bass lines. Melancolia full throttle.... Arthur Rimbaud would be proud.

[@Teotahi]

Tres beau commentaire

[@areyaouank29]

Probably their most artistically accomplished album. I miss these days. 1982-2022.

[@exactsame]

Their finest hour

[@deletebilderberg]

Most commercially sounding album. Their best artistic work was accomplished before this album was released.

[@stephenoflynn50]

Beautiful tjrobning bass... Great Mr Forbes

[@dwiseman1]

Wow. Loving this early version with the vocals right up front. Like suddenly finding a completely new side to a very old friend :)

[@jasonritchie8475]

It's excellent isn't it? It's the dry vocal before they send it through the gated reverbs

[@michaelcampbell8023]

My fav song of all time. Never a single???🤔🤔

[@michaelcampbell8023]

@@glenndouglas8822 still bloody good as earlier comment like finding a new friend 🤗

Voice in front of us... Jim- how wonderful- dream in a dream- so frenzy 💥

[@chrisscott1633]

SIMPLE MINDS ! ...One of The Cornerstones of my Love of 80 's Music ,that Transcends Time . I would've liked to have mixed this in with the 12" release of the day.. Oi ! Simon Thnx for uploading !

[@chantalchantal8063]

Jamais entendu une si belle musique. Les sons quel don Derek Forbes extraordinaire. Jim une voix magnifique j'adore

[@henryperrier7285]

hello sur ma page il y a des rares maxi's

[@craigsonnenschein9522]

Wow - this is amazing. I think the version they ultimately released was better, but this version is brilliant as well.

[@marcvs1253]

Dereks bass....Whow

[@angellathefordgirl]

Seriously one of the best bass players in the world.

[@DavidLazarus]

It's cool to hear this demo, but the absolute best rendition ever is from The Tube that same year! Their performance was absolutely stellar and Mick kills it on keys!

[@paololo7385]

la nascita del capolavoro anni '80

[@nickbrooker1411]

amazing! so much content that they could literally come up with about 5 different versions of the same song - love the version they settled on though! Great to hear such clear vocals in this demo too!

[@annethomas5780]

Early vision great memories for me thanktyou xx

[@musicbybackinnyc1]

awesome

[@XBROS1]

Extraordinaire

[@iainc170nj]

This is NOT a demo, just elements of the 2003 DTS DVD-A Mix.

[@glenndouglas8822]

Yeah, it's a fan remix from the 5.1 release.

[@arees6653]

Also the beginning is taken from the Razormaid edit .

[@dequadim]

I strongly want a superdeluxe expanded edition of "New Gold Dream" album.

[@crystalbros4524]

It's out finally...I haven't gotten mine yet, but looks awesome

[@dequadim]

But the demo of "New Gold Dream" has not been yet released :-(

[@stevendphoto]

Off my favorite SM album...

[@kimdawcatgirl]

Charlie's guitar! Damn awesome! Fills my whole being with emotion!

[@CarlosOrtega-mo2oq]

Buenísimo, actual, sempiterno.

Sounds more like a fan-mix of the German 12''/DTS 5.1 version, would explain Kerr's upfront vox.

[@frankmuller9619]

Vielen vielen lieben Dank für dieses Lied

[@simonfield1029]

I HAVE TEARS IN MY EYES

[@jasonritchie8475]

Superb! 😍

[@bradhorton2456]

Wow wow wow

[@pacootero2351]

probably for dye hard fans... still can hear the inmense quality they had in a probably too long demo. Love these guys

[@sannerodenburg]

Can't be long enough for me!

[@kcsunshineadventures1496]

Love it❤

[@electrohead2347]

its basically a fan mix, not a demo version. Using the 5.1 version of new gold dream, re-organisng the seperate solo track into a completely new mix.

[@steveh3274]

Nobody likes a smart ass

[@glenndouglas8822]

Go to....Some Sweet Day...channel. They do their own remixes from 5:1 releases. They are amazing.

[@celiaayneto9232]

Who cares! It sounds brilliant anyway.

[@zowiealbe2052]

Wonderful.

[@bartsnowfleet]

Nice to not have the vocal drowning in reverb...

[@robmccann9844]

King is white and in the crowd is my favourite track on new gold dream

[@bo2web]

Amazing ! thx

[@elawiechno2339]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@domjuste]

Great work ! 👍

[@pats2837]

😎

[@zowiealbe2052]

Très jolie voix ,dommage que le son de la musique soit trop faible //Nice voice ! Good singer,that's not bad at all.Singing simple Minds is very difficult.But pump UP the volume of the music,please .

[@Silvia-rm4uy]

Bella aaa

[@leonardoimparato2285]

Capolavoro n1

[@bernadezi]

Not a bad demo This band might just make it ;-)

[@alistaircampbell4446]

😃

[@michaelcampbell8023]

Haha. 😂

[@junglesunrise4582]

Tbis long version is great for a workout or a dance when the lady is out.

[@christophermagnusson1589]

"And it came too pass." "Setting Sun right in front of me."

[@nickpn23]

Prefer this to the album version.

[@Noodles37UK]

Why is Kerr's singing so forward in the mix? Good version though.

[@bojanarezina2352]

this is like a pre-mix track, sounds very dry, especially the vocals, before processing

[@karelschut]

on 2:24 Jim gets a message on his fone

[@kcsunshineadventures1496]

Where was this photo taken?

[@davidsherlock9393]

Its not a demo. Its a remix FFS

[@nakedeye68]

Why have you put DEMO? It's not. You need to correct your title unless you just want clicks? X

[@kerrfal]

Not a demo!!!!

[@mantra3000]

Seriously, why give a clickbait fake name to this. It's kind of lame...

[@psalmtwentyfiveeight]

hey hello- this is not a 1982 demo? what is it exactly?

[@noeljohnson868]

The first minute is great, the second is pretty damn good, too...then, oh boy, wtf happened....time to go elsewhere...

[@pinkstrumpet]

I'm a big fan but god that guy wrote some atrocious lyrics!

[@toptonychick]

Most of them are images rather then lyrics.

[@davidcp7957]

You gotta be kidding, the lyrics are great, they create fantastic dream-like imagery to the music, it's musical art, not rock n roll.

[@glenndouglas8822]

Toptonychick as got it spot on.

[@danielgareau2836]

They're atrocious lyrics only if you're illiterate and have no imagination for imagery.

[@dwiseman1]

@@danielgareau2836 Yes quite :)
