Lyrics:
Stay, I'm burning slow
With me in the rain, walking in the soft rain
Calling out my name
See me burning slow
Brilliant days, wake up on brilliant days
Shadows of brilliant ways will change all the time
Memories, burning gold memories
Gold of day memories change me in these times
Somewhere there is some place, that one million eyes can't see
And somewhere there is someone, who can see what I can see
Someone, Somewhere In Summertime
Someone, Somewhere In Summertime
Someone, Somewhere In Summertime
Moments burn, slow burning golden nights
Once more see city lights, holding candles to the flame
Brilliant days, wake up on brilliant days
Shadows of brilliant ways will change me all the time
Somewhere there is some place, that one million eyes can't see
And somewhere there is someone, who can see what I can see
Someone, Somewhere In Summertime
Someone, Somewhere In Summertime
Someone, Somewhere In Summertime
Someone, Somewhere In Summertime
Someone, Somewhere In Summertime

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.

[@giocame1609]

Best song ever. So many memories. So beautiful. This song lifts my soul.

[@ArtAndTalk]

When people talk about Simple Minds it's usually "Don't You (Forget About Me)" or "Alive And Kicking". That's all right to a degree but for me if I had to pick one song and one song only it would be this song. It's just so beautiful!!

[@martinschmidt4894]

Agree. Just told the missus (who is a major fan) that this is my fav SM song

[@andrewevans7369]

Art & Talk you got that right

[@Messias3000]

[@droberts753]

What a hauntingly beautiful song and what a great lineup with Mel on the drums.

[@jennyprosser1905]

They are really Incredible my dream come true to see them can’t wait to see them again .someone said they are defined by 2songs but if you’re a true fan you are defined by them all

SIMPLE MINDS One of the best 80s bands deserves to be in the hall of fame.

[@Eirene30]

No words to describe Simple Minds.... Epic Band!!!!

[@dirkkouwenhoven4171]

One of the best bands of the 80,s ,and still today 👍.

[@andydinwoodie1497]

One of my favourite SM tracks. Brings back so many memories of my teenage years back in the 1980s

[@andrewbeattie6520]

Mon the well, and the minds....

[@stevenrobertson8329]

Unfortunately all we have left now are memories thanks guys.

[@danielsmith6308]

The perfect merging of punchy synth and atmospheric guitar and a singer who can actually belt it out. Didn't know back then how lucky we were in the 80's. Ain't that always the case with passing time.

[@erikwhitebeard79]

The music to this song has never sounded better. Epic.

[@luisherrera2552]

This song is timeless, if I didn’t know the song is from the glorious 80’s, and you tell me it was just reliased yesterday i’d believe you in a heart beat...

[@EnchantGaming2003]

Someone, Somewhere in Summertime is from 1982, that makes it *41* years old. And it still sounds amazing today.

[@hagnewton4255]

1980s high school days in Southern California.👍

[@raffaellascippa5387]

It will always be...someone...somewhere....in summertime! ❤ always! Love you. Simple Minds Forever

[@giusepperubini2396]

Uno di quei capolavori che potrei ascoltare all'infinito. Per me uno dei più bei pezzi di tutta la storia della musica 💜

[@stefano699]

come tutto quel Meraviglioso LP (New Gold Dream 81-82-83-84), trovare un pezzo brutto in quel 33 giri...è roba da archeologi

[@andream6979]

Ho il vinile In The City of Lights e credo di averlo consumato soprattutto in corrispondenza di questa canzone e di Ghostdancing

[@cavallopazzo15]

Sicuramente 👍

[@maurizioglazar9483]

SM ever and forever. Maurizio from Rijeka Croatia

[@pie68]

Vi seguo da sempre e avete segnato la mia vita adolescenziale e attuale... Strabilianti e memorabili da sempre e per sempre... Da un italiano ex marinaio del 68 che per un quarto di secolo ha girato il mondo accompagnato dalla vostra musica... Grazie per la vostra dedizione

[@mr-wx3lv]

Definitely one of the mega bands of the 80s and into the 90s. They produced a very individual style which combined a range of styles. Proved highly popular and still are..

[@jazzndbuster6417]

Some people say that this song takes them back, but to me this song made me feel good 36 years ago and still makes me feel good 36 years later...

[@terrynoonan6616]

The intro from the extended version is perfect,what an amazing night it must have been.

[@marcobonizzi3628]

Jim, plenty of love from Italy!!! We love you!!!

L'essenza degli anni 80 in questa canzone. Anni bellissimi e spensierati. W i Simple Minds ❤️

[@gigiomompra7056]

Da pelle d'oca! Non tanto per i vent'anni andati, ma perchè questo gruppo era veramente ad un altro livello!

[@archstanton1733]

I'm not big on Simple Minds if I'm being honest but there is something about this song. I'll you what that something is - it's f***ing brilliant, that's what!

[@mesutkilci7043]

One of the best time of the music world and the life. *Good people *No stress *No war *No crisis *Cheap life *No internet..... But just real life with good people and funny time 👍👍👍 This can song can be imited but never egaled! Diamond are for ever!

My absolute fave by them. Wonderful memories of a special time

[@frankmeyer9907]

One of the best Live Bands I've seen, the symbiotic relation between the guitar & voice, they created timeless songs, many thanks for that!

[@igorstein5616]

One of the Best Songs from the 80`s

[@thomaselliott573]

I will always be grateful for them coming to play at the Manly Vale Hotel in Sydney (twice) and so should they be grateful. We went through an era together that no one could dream about now. Some of us, somewhere in summertime.

[@stuarthopkins1308]

I've only just started discovering Simple Minds; I think this is my favourite song so far in my discovery. The guitar reminds me a bit of Marillion (who I love) and U2, but they've definitely get their own thing going on.

[@uwepryka9041]

One of my all time favourites, IF NOT THE FAVOURITE SONG OF ALL TIMES!

[@user-do7vx6oz6q]

Someone Somewhere (In Summertime) Simple Minds Stay, I'm burning slow, with me in the rain Walking in the soft rain, calling out my name See me burning slow Brilliant days Wake up on brilliant days Shadows of brilliant ways will change all the time Memories Burning gold memories Gold of day memories change me in these times Somewhere there is some place That one million eyes can't see And somewhere there is someone Who can see what I can see?

We grew up on the Glasgow housing estates listening to this brilliant music in the mid 80s xx

[@VimyScout]

It's still to this day a beautiful song. Reminds me of so many summers past.

[@MrKyalami]

33 years ago since Charlie played those spellbinding opening chords at sunset in Roskilde. Forever my favourite anthem.

[@rjgalloway9425]

Saw this amazing gift to music that is the Minds in 84 at the Caird Hall in Dundee....what a gig and what a band....outstanding...and Charlie Burchill still a guitaring influence to this 53 year old...

[@scrimmy45]

I love simple minds and this for me is their greatest, musically deepest, catchiest meaningful track. Love love hashtag LOVE

[@quizzy840]

Not Simple Minds' best song. Not my favourite Simple Minds song either. But is this the quintessential Simple Minds song?

[@ligiamaia6711]

Y love simple minds

[@jshphysicistatyahoo]

My favorite song by Simple Minds easily. Reminds me of the summer of 1985 West Germany but spent the most special week of my life on this one week trip in West Berlin. She had eyes like large, blue (azule ?) pools. Love at first sight 35 years ago. I can never forget, even if I wanted.

[@paulalexander633]

and??

[@jshphysicistatyahoo]

​@@paulalexander633 I suppose she went her way. Heck, I would have followed her to Finland like some lost puppy. But I suspect she had a boyfriend. The different languages thing did not help. My German was awful!! But we stayed in touch by mail and these broken German, transantlantic phone calls. I graduated college just the writing and phone calls stopped. I was trying to be polite and do the right thing if she already had a boyfriend. I have a Finnish friend and his eyes are similar. Reminds me so much of her I try hard not to think about it. What do they call that, un-requieted love? Take care Mr. Alexander.

[@colettegillard]

They are a well known music group world wide! I love most of their hits,! 😀❤️

[@vesnavekamarjanovic4172]

Beautiful song Jime I love your voice after 30 years and you too

[@Anthony-fr6lg]

Most people have listen first time Simple Minds watching the Breakfast Club movie which was a masterpiece as I was a teenager at that time but before it the band have produced some amazing albums even 3 or 4 just instrumentals .... I AM A BIG FAN !!!!!

[@chrisjohn8795]

What a massive performance Real kick arse music

[@user-do7vx6oz6q]

A law student then, when I first heard the song, I heard it on the train from Athens to Komotini. The years when everything seemed hopeful. There was a road of time. Now, for so many years, Judge, I am not weeping for what I did not live, but for what I caused so that the people who loved me would not live. The song is with divine music, and every night writing down the decisions for the people, I become that new 17-year-old, the first year of law school, who travels by train and sees city lights pass by. Blessed are the people who live their days in love, there is nothing left and you do not take anything else with you. Thanks to my favorite band for my favorite song, unfortunately, I will never listen to them live here in Greece and and this is a complaint from my life. PAOK F.C. THESSALONIKI

Saw them in Seattle last weekend (their first visit since 1984!) They performed a very long set, Jim Kerr is a genuinely generous frontman and Charlie Burchill is the man.

[@darrylstubbs5221]

Watching this makes me sad as we can no longer gather like this at the moment.

[@gerardpost8799]

One of my all time favorite songs. The album is classic and remembers me of my youth. Wauw
