The Power To Forgive - Kajagoogoo

[@musicdemos80]

I dont understand why people hate on Nick Beggs so much, I understand he doesn't have as much of the 'frontman' character about him, however he is one hell of a bass player and the Islands album is an absolute masterpiece 👌.

[@JulioArevalo-fr8hm]

Estema.me.buelbe.loco.asta.lamuuerte......

[@EamonnSeoigh]

When Chris Hamill was fired from the band, critics crawled all over Nick even though it was a group business decision….but, since he was the band’s spokesman…..

[@electroborg]

I think Beggs is perfect for a leading role in a band, I also can understand why the scores of female fans swooning over Limahl couldn't in any way settle for a replacement. Both Limahl and Beggs stood out as characters and to stand out in the 80s was quite the accomplishment. Get any second-tier band from the 80s through a time machine right here and they would rule the charts for a decade straight.

[@jasonwheeler4168]

He is a brilliant bass player the band was doomed either way they wanted to be taken seriousy the manager was the problem and he should of been fired.I think islands is a great record.

[@AniaDamięcka]

Wiem o czym piszesz Ale to jest muzyka dla nas wyjątkowych słuchaczy nie dla każdego ja to zrozumiałam dopiero teraz zawsze miałam złą minę gdy ktoś go nie lubił ale już się nie gniewam na nikogo za swój gust i Styl każdy kocha swoją muzykę ja kocham kajagoogoo❤❤❤❤❤

[@EM-hq7hv]

I don't understand why this wasn't as popular as the Limahl era. In a lot of ways, I think its way better.

[@senoritaluna8673]

This album is really good! I also have their previous one with Limahl. They made a big mistake firing him. Yes, Nick can sing and he’s an out of this world bass player!. However, Limahl has a very smooth pop voice and great charisma. The band didn’t have the same magic withou Limahl imo.

[@johnisrael5183]

Alot better

[@Bigbacon]

Both are completely under rated. They are fantastic in their own ways.

[@johnella2883]

Um, they're both awesome! :)

[@BenVarkentine]

People who liked the Limahl era weren't interested in a more serious funk - rock approach, and serious rock fans weren't going to touch them, after the Limahl era.

[@wagnergitirana]

Damn ! This is an awesome song ! It’s 2023 and I lived through the great songs from the 80’s…and yet, this is the absolute first time I am listening this song and why is that ? These guys never had a good manager and also I see that they themselves missed a lot of opportunities. They could have been one of the most successful bands in England and in the world if they really wanted to, because I see a lot of talent here and they didn’t need Limahl for that ! Too bad . The bass line here is great ! Well, well … past is past … but what if… This is a lesson that we can make our opportunities, you must be willing to trust and compromise. It was a great band !

[@DarrenBonJovi]

What a bass player Nick Beggs is!

If you like bass players, try Mick Karn in 80s group Japan.

[@markparsons5549]

What a great tune! I'm 40 years late to the kaja party but finally got here! They didn't need limahl ,beggs is mesmerizing,that cheeky smile which my mum always loved!

[@blazingsaddle166]

Yeah, this is a really great pop song. Has quite a haunting vibe to it now I'm listening to it 37 years later. Where the hell has the time gone?

[@kibidk]

I always considered this to be their best song. This kind of beautiful melodic pop never comes again. Really miss the 80'es!

[@maccagrabme]

Quality level was very high in pop. I don't know what happened to pop music, it fell off a cliff around 1996 and hasn't recovered.

[@myself3209]

Why does it have to come again? You have it already so enjoy it

[@JulioArevalo-fr8hm]

Nunca. Ba.aser.igual.que.estamusica......

he can slap bass like a god AND sing? nick beggs is perfect (and everyone else in kaja is super duper talented)

[@ps1286]

I can't get enough of this groovy Christian tune. Kajagoogoo just gets better and better for me. It's funny, I've been listening since the 90s (I was a child in the 80s), but never discovered this song until recently. It came at just the right time in my life. Interesting how that works out. ;)

[@stevelanemusic4463]

Great album, great song. Nick Beggs is phenomenal...

[@thethe6232]

One thing I must say is Nick Beggs was bang on trend and not frightened to push the boundary’s.

[@snorhyveln]

Nick Beggs has a multitalented gift, sings effortlessly like Tony Hadly in Spandau Ballet, or Rick Astley .. plays the bass like Stanley Clark, Jaco Pastorius... On top of that.. has the mysterious charisma that spellbound

[@spark_6710]

Well said ! You just nailed it !

I agree, Nick is a wonderously multi-talented man! Kajagoogoo and The Mute Gods rule...

[@kanga66prso]

Probably one of the best band ever

[@danerogers9058]

Not even close.

[@mickbland3990]

Nick Beggs is in a league of his own , brilliant voice like Tony Hadley.and master base man.but people remember classics like too shy as the original line up ,Too Shy has to have limahl as the original singer to bring back so many memories and emotions.a time never to be re lived

[@ubhatti17]

The bass is awesome

Its funny how Stuart Neales voice is actually also Nicks lol

For some reason this song makes me feel sympathetic, Islands is a great album with a lot of songs that have you feel different things with each track.

Unfortunately no footage of their Islands tour has surfaced, but you can find some live versions of other songs on the album as well as a live version of Too Shy with Nick singing!

[@bobdooggie]

This album reflected Nick Beggs Christianity from what I was told. Amazing music and lyrics

[@xaviergough9359]

Incredibly underrated bassist! Nick also had a decent voice for this type of genre.

[@Whitty4x]

The whole “Islands” album should be hits

[@SubashSL]

My first Kajagoogoo album in the 80's on cassette. "Lion's Mouth", "Turn your back on me" were my favs but cannot say how much I used to play this song, check out the last bit 4:13 onwards of this song for the bass, drums and keys...

[@grahamburns6661]

great song from nick beggs

[@onsesejoo2605]

To be a nitpick, music was from the whole group Nick Beggs writing the lyrics as well. :)

Loving is to live with the power to forgive. Loving is to live with the power to forgive. Lead me, show me, where can it be found? Reach me, hold me, don't ever let me down. (Tell me what you've seen.) I know the story. (Tell me what you mean.) Maybe or surely. (Tell me what you've seen.) The crimson fell like rain. (Should I even try?) Whatever before me. (Living out a lie?) I believe in glory. (Should I even try?) Until it comes again. Forgiveness you're the key, you're no fool that died for me. I'm real sorry though, I simply could not see. Forgiveness you're the key, you're no fool that died for me. Forgiveness is forgiving endlessly. Reach me, show me, where can it be found? Teach me, grow with me, don't ever let me down. (Tell me what you've seen.) Every day I fail him. (Tell me what you mean.) As I bang another nail in. (Tell me what you've seen.) Living my life the same. (Should I even try?) Paying the debt back. (Living out a lie?) A long time side-tracked. (Should I even try?) Until it comes again. Forgiveness you're the key, you're no fool that died for me. I'm real sorry though, I simply could not see. Forgiveness you're the key, you're no fool that died for me. Forgiveness is forgiving endlessly. Oh oh Forgiveness you're the key, you're no fool that died for me. I'm real sorry though, I simply could not see. Forgiveness you're the key, you're no fool that died for me. Forgiveness is forgiving endlessly.
