Simple Minds - New Gold Dream Reaction (Fish Out Of Water Series)

[@rediscoveryrecords1348]

Such an amazing song. Every instrument works so well together sonically in the mix. With that driving beat. And the changes are awesonem the song could literally go back and forth between the chorus and bridges for eternity and i wouldnt mind. Oustanding song. Sounds as good in 2023 as it did in 1982 when i first heard it when i was 6!

♡♡♡ anthem! 81! 82! 83! 84!!!! Love how this song is so anthemic and constant. Like a constant high. Roatating between the chorus and the bridge. Back and forth one ecstacy

[@widespoon2599]

Utter perfection! . . There's an amazing live version from their 1982 tour filmed in Newcastle . . musical ecstasy . . They really felt it when Derek Forbes left a few years later . . and the stadiums beckoned . .

[@suz5862]

I agree about Derek but utter perfection was Sons and Fascination/Sisters Feeling Call. New Gold Dream marked the beginning of the end. 😕

The God like genius that is Mick MacNeil making those amazing sounds on the keys

[@MusicFan1977]

One of my favorites from them. Early on Simple Minds is their best stuff.

[@mikecaetano]

I've had that record in my collection since 81, 82, 83, 84... Joking there, but back then I liked this album more than their Breakfast Club stuff that dropped a couple years later.

Peak SM!

Someone once described it as a 'celestial bullettrain'. Def a personal fav. Passion and innovation on full display.

[@FStarNumber3]

Great sample from this is basically the whole Usura track ‘Open your mind’ If you’re going to lift, lift from great moments!

Was pretty into these guys back in the day. Was always about the keys, bass and vocals. Holds up well

[@extracaliber432]

Great running track, along with I Travel and Theme For Great cities.

[@adamdodgshon638]

From this album, “Colours Fly And Catherine Wheel” has a RIDICULOUS bass line. Second only perhaps to their instrumental from the album prior to this one. The instrumental is called Theme For Great Cities and the bass is phenomenal. This is a great track though. A real bright track. Made into a “rave” track in the 90s.

He did a reaction to that track u mentioned. Search for it here on youtube :)

Cocteau Twins got their name from a Simple Minds song.

And Simple Minds got their name from lyrics on the Bowie album "Aladdinsane"…👍

Life In A Day was their first single. Interesting to hear how they changed between album 1 and this track.
