One of my favourite songs from one of the best albums of the eighties - and Jools piano solo is amazing !

As a 52 yr old chap, I'm not ashamed to say that I was weeping throughout this track during the Alexandra Palace show. Anyone else have that reaction?

I was crying all the way up to the second (dancing) set, my feet were killing me. Once the classics hit, then it was epic! Thought Giant was awesome with everyone joining in.

I’m I writer. I went but nearly didn’t go. So glad I did. Made me realise what a massive influence Matt was on me back in my 20s. I too had a tear in my eye as DC Collard nailed this. And the finish with Giant! Epic 😍

"Weak men lie. Strong men cry" (from Where Do We Go When We Die - Ensoulment). Just saw them in Salt Lake. I didn't cry, but I had shivers all over, several times -- and sang along with all the lyrics of his old songs (which still feel so fresh and relevant!). And yes: I realized at a very deep level how influential Matt was on my life from about age 18 into my early 30s... I am over the moon happy that he's back!!

An iconic, off-the-cuff piano solo moment. I'm still buzzing from seeing them live last week! Matt Johnson made the whole room comfortable with his chats between songs and jokes. Very beautiful soul.

For 35 years, this has always been my 'warm up" song for almost every pivotal life moment. For exams, job interviews, the morning of days my 3 kids were born, project bids, big events, the most important days. Music has power, and for me, this track is the best confidence charge-up and has never let me down. Thanks Matt...and Jools. ps. I love the annecdote about this track and lunch in your book.

An all time fave and anthem for my life! Jools Holland’s piano on the song on the Soul Mining album always mesmerising.

Seen the The on mind bomb tour, Glastonbury and ensouled in September this year. Love the The since school days when a friend gave me a cassette with soul mining one side and burning blue soul on the other.never looked back,with me since I was a teenager in the 80s.

Sounds just as great now as it did in 1987 (and just learning it came out in 83, what a concept)
@davewilson9738Ай бұрын
How can this performance be over 30 years ago? And may I add that in the last 40 years this has been played thousands of times by me and this piano solo never fails to make me happy.

I wonder if this is the only time Jools has played on a tune on his TV show where he's also played on the actual record? [Not including the songs he's done with his own band or Squeeze].
