And he sounds just as good today. Mick is incredible.

[@karenraba4709]

It's a limited number of artists who sound just as incredible live

[@richardclarke376]

and ever fewer that sound better live !!!

[@francescacicone4500]

I think they sound better live

[@shareelpande9226]

His energy is off the charts, one of the best live singers ever

[@robinbeers6689]

He always had a magnificent voice but I had forgotten just how lovely he was back in the day. My goodness, I remember.

[@mariarohmer2374]

I had the same reaction. Brought back a lot of memories.

[@andrewtrevelyan969]

Still one of the BEST LIVE Concerts I have EVER been to in the UK -

[@Trevoulin]

7 people who disliked this video are the grumpiest people on the earth. How can you not love the energy Mick and Simply Red bring? This is fantastic stuff.

At the moment there are 167 people and more than grumpy I think they are envious, that is stupid.

[@ingridpfeiffer1730]

Diese Performance ist einfach gigantisch. Meine Beine fangen automatisch an sich zu bewegen.

[@geraldinegregory.1803]

One of the greatest voices of his generation. Always pitch perfect. Reaches into your soul.

[@amyjeffs3269]

Ranks with George Michael as the finest male voice we have ever seen in the UK .Mick is totally unique in his appearance,and style of music,which is hugely appealing ,through his career. He really is the full package, especially in this time period. I remember exactly where i was when i saw the video for this song, for the first time. You just knew,it was Simply Reds time to explode...and they did.

[@zettaclark3213]

What a lovely song and he was willing to give it all up for his girl ❤

[@desireehall-bl6qt]

He has soul.’Music is great!

[@ariadnamartinez3601]

When the artist is one with the music, the public and everything! He is so in tune with everything and nothing at the same time. So timeless! 80's was one of the best periods for music, without doubt. So much vitality, LIFE and people had fun for real! Music that truly matters and that makes you have a hard time to sit still that reaches into the very core of thy heart. LOVE IT, 21y old girl from Sweden.

[@harrietsoper3091]
