October 30th is my wife and I's 30th wedding anniversary, my gorgeous Claire came down the aisle on our wedding day to this outrageously great tune. THANK YOU SIMPLE MINDS all of you, for all these years of great music and memories, P.S see you in Taupo NZ in 2024. xxx.

[@kangaroochaser]

Love this story. Thanks for sharing this memory. Also what an amazing choice for that moment.

[@sharonflorenca9884]

Exactly!! I wish they would come to Johannesburg again!

[@user-dh1ou8pv1z]

CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU!!! THAT IS WHAT IT "IS" ALL ABOUT, TRUE LOVE. BLESSINGS TO YOU.💝

[@dinotrincas9620]

Great tune....

[@KovietUnionDefector]

What a way to do it! I love that! I fell in love with the tune later in it's life. I changed career and after years of normal drudgery I ended up as an ecological surveyor on large deep sea exploration vessels. I found this music surveying for turtles in Angola over Christmas 2010 in 35 degrees heat and bright cloudless skies on a fantastic ship with an awesome group of fellow seafarers. This tune plus the amazing turn in my career lead.me to completely wake up and love all things natural to a higher level. It set my life on course to escape the slavery system and buy a cheap farmstead and live in harmony with nature. Even now this tune and it's title just brings a happy feeling to my soul. Somebody up there likes you....this goes for everyone with kindness in their soul.

Nothing Simple about Simple Minds

[@johnnyradd19]

Listening to this in my 78 Camaro in 84 took me to another planet, in high school in New York. Amazing

[@dardar7909]

❤ I am in a Glasgow hotel overlooking the whole of the shimmering nightime city and listening to this in wonderment

[@CarlosGomez-hz7ng]

El único tema que supera al original. Impresionante !!

[@byebyevolca]

❤❤❤ ipnotic, minimal, dark newave ,Spectacular version

[@nutster9000]

Simply stunning. In my opinion the very best by Simple Minds. This exudes calm peace & happiness with rays of sunshine in sound waves.

[@billyfanthom4048]

This is on my lifes soundtrack...❤

[@dhevingovender5414]

In an incredible, incomparable back catalogue, this is very, very close to being their best track ever, instrumental or otherwise. Charlie's variations on this live version add further lustre and take it to another level. Insane, completely insane.

[@nutster9000]

Absolutely completely agree with that! Every time I hear this takes me back to the amazing summer of 1983. Always associate this track with summertime in the countryside.

[@bobisolano3161]

Non avrei mai conosciuto questo capolavoro se non fosse stato per la cassetta dell'album pezzottata da Mixed By Erry. Come tanti miei preferiti mai trasmessi per radio. Dopo 40+ anni ancora la amo e ringrazio KZbin e Simple Minds per la condivisione di questa fantastica live version. 💙

Mega Psychology, just the best !

[@TaraAmrit]

Beautiful - so emotional and atmospheric 🌟

[@brianwilson247]

What a tune! Emotional and mind blowing … keep playing it in my car Wow😍

[@Aguamarina38]

You put my words High. I love the band.

[@andyinniss]

Just fantastic ❤

[@jairovilar]

This is a super nice song! I love the bass played on this video!

[@grahamf4508]

I saw them at the end of 82 at the Lyceum on The Strand. I found an inner peace that evening as if I had died and gone to heaven. All of this album plus the best of what had already passed (I Travel, The American, Love Song, Theme from Great Cities, This Fear of Gods and many more too) - what a show. At the same time it spoilt me. I saw them again at the MK Bowl in 86 when they were promoting the Once Upon a Time album - and it was just not the same at all. The magic had gone and they had just become a stadium band competing with U2.

[@kareleikeboom9471]

Wonderful👍🤩

[@AdamSandaver]

They most certainly do... . ...

[@gregobrien4384]

1992 in Dublin Ireland,life was never the same after.All original line up....from the Gods.....

[@yolandeclaes3399]

Love that tune ❤

[@miket7982]

saw them in '91 @ the Orpheum Boston. Still one of my favorite shows ever...& it was a half a lifetime ago!

[@TR-nq5fm]

Wonderful ✨️

[@Achim188]

Very good version of the song. Would be even better with a video you don't find on KZbin anymore. There, a small starship is following a Mothership.

[@samborac46]

This is just.....wow...next level. Really nice!!

[@totofan962]

Fantastic. 🤜❤🤛 But without Mick, Mel & Derek it's like a coverband.

[@kenlowe-ca]

But by extension, every live performance by the band is a "cover version" of that band's song from the studio album, that had producers, sound engineers, and a crew that made it what we "know".

[@flamuel]

I would not consider it a cover band with the original voice of Simple Minds and guitarist

[@totofan962]

@@kenlowe-ca But there is a lot of heart and soul from these 3 guys in the songs. Writing, creating, experiment with sounds etc... that,s all their stuff. Derek's bassline, Mick's wonderful ideas and sounds on keys, that's it what make this brilliant album timeless and so fantastic. Sorry, only Mick, Derek and Mel play the songs from New Gold Dream original. Any other musician covers them, play their stolen ideas. The good times of Simple Minds are long, long, long ago.

[@simplemindsme]

You are correct!!!

[@simplemindsme]

I'm sorry to say I did not recognize the song from the beginning as the original version is perfect! Nostalgia from the original is a high this one is extremely modified.

[@simplemindsme]

With the exception of Charlie... It sounds like a high school band is practicing.

[@dinotrincas9620]

Bravo,that's the feeling....nothing Will replace the original SM "Wall of Sound"...as you can't replace Mel Gaynor,Micael McNeil,Derek Forbes...I'm sorry but I don't like actual SM line up so their actual sound .
