'Some day some of them say that our hearts will beat like the wheels of the fast train, all around the world' - thank you for sharing your personal vids from back then Mick. We all love them! 🙏👍❤️

[@DavidColville-y8y]

As an obsessive SM fan from the 80’s this stuff is just the perfect charm. Thanks for sharing Mick❤️

[@mpk33]

That Mel Gaynor lad, is actually very cheeky, innit. 😂 Thanks Mick. I've heard Once Upon A Time thousands of times in nearly 40 years now, but never like this video with just your keys. Wow! Absolutely beautiful. Stay healthy & we look forward to the next episode, pal. 👍🏻

[@andreastevanovich]

That's a wonderful rendition of Once Upon a Time, you've given it a brand new "outfit". Any chance for you to release the instrumentals you're playing on all those videos? Would be great to listen to...

[@steelriverdrinks7036]

Just lovely again Mick. Watching sat on my terrace in Granada, Andalucia, listening to your soothing piano, drinking a coffee and watching the sun break through rain. Simple things, lovely things. Thank you Mick.

[@stephenfirth466]

Amazing Mick, really miss you in the band 😊

[@MarcusWainwright]

I’m lucky that i discovered your music from real to real onwards thank you mick for all the memories

[@benbarclay3480]

Beautiful music & memories. It really gives a glimpse of life on the road with pals back then. Thank you for sharing.

[@paf210767]

Great days and so fab to go back to the 1980's and watch your video footage and musical ensemble. Many thanks Mick! 🙂

[@newgolddreamer1182]

Lovely seeing these snippets, and such poignant music that only you could conjure up Mick. Feels like both yesterday and a lifetime ago ❤

Beautiful memories Mick!!…it reminds me that period and proud to have lived Simple Minds that time. Grazie Mick!!!

[@ronniewilson6597]

Fantastic Mick, as a teenager in Liverpool at the time the only way i could get info on the band was reading the NME and searching every little article on the band. Its a great insight into what was going on behind the interviews etc. cheers. 👍🏻😀

I'm in the Bahamas on holiday just now reading Graeme Thompson's , history of Simple Minds book....I remember meeting the band in the hotel up at Park Circus in the Tiffany's gigs days....this is a lovely video, thanks for sharing Mick. Your piano/keyboards on BOBT at the Ahoy , Rotterdam on KZbin still blows me away.

Lol imagine seeing Simple Minds, in their prime (yes, no Derek, but the 85-86 lineup was still AWESOME) on a freaking airplane.

[@MrOrdinar]

I guess a cd with all those themes is highly needed. New Gold Dream on accordion included.

[@mickmacneil1]

A cd, what’s that? Does anyone still use such a device? 😅

[@MrOrdinar]

I will gladly buy it.

A strange dichotomy to see you guys larking and lounging when you were firmly etched in my mind as superhuman deities looking out from the record sleeve...

[@IngaHaas]

Agree:-)!!! Yep, re superhuman...... and here I was thinking they already had private jets back then😂😂.

[@felipesartain]

The Mellencamp moments are interesting. According to Wikipedia, Jim saw Lisa Germano-Mellencamp's violinist-on a late-night music show and decided he wanted her to overdub a part on Someone Somewhere in Summertime for Live in the City of Light. This video makes me wonder if Jim had been following Mellencamp and Germano for a while-way before the band was mixing the live album. Either way, let's hear it for Lisa Germano: kzbin.info/www/bejne/baC8qJ2wptqbba8

[@christianedekoning2057]

Mick, your playing is always so atmospheric. You all look so relaxed; Robin seems to be really cool. And are those all books in Charlie's big suitcase? ;-) Thanks again for this great capture. PS: did you possibly also capture anything about a tour in Belgium, e.g. Brussels? If so, I would really love to see that capture. Anyway, whatever country the next video will be about, I'm already looking forward to it.

It s a part of being a touring band we rarely have the opportunity to see. There s something romantic about travelling the world for music, but also somehow boring.

[@jamieholmes4675]

Can you remember the venue the band were heading for?

Valbyhallen, Copenhagen, 27 & 28 January 1986
