Here I am in my early 50’s walking my dogs in south Texas reminiscing about my first air cadet camp back in Scotland listening to this song and other Simple Minds hits. 1192 Kdy Squadron
Hard to believe Waterfront is 39 years old and Verona was recorded 34 years ago. Still sounds so fresh and powerful- am bouncing around the house listening to it. Saw them last year in Dublin- absolutly brilliant. Hopefully they will announce a tour shortly.
I was there in Verona one of the two nights. I've seen some of the best live bands of the 80's / 90's in my life. This is the live performance n. 1 to me. It was absolutely fantastic !
Lucky you!! It must have been amazing live, such a great concert in such a great setting. Luckely we still have the full video here. I also saw them live a few times. They could perform like no other on stage, so powerful. They are still my no.1 as they were back in '87 when I was 18y old. I remember playing their live double-album many times so loud in my room in the dark, it was magic. The day after the neighbors from a few houses down the road were always complaining about the noise..LOL
I was there that night. It was so awesome and I hold that memory so close to my heart. They totally rocked that that arena. Missed the last train home and had to hitchhike with a friend.
Favorite song. They opened live with this song so many times. Like crashing ocean waves, suddenly the atmosphere became magic. This is one heck of a song
1986 Palasport di Piazza Azzarita a Bologna - i Simple Minds che ipnotizzavano il loro popolo, tra cui il sottoscritto, con la loro meravigliosa musica - migliaia a ballare sugli spalti, avresti voluto che il concerto non finisse mai ed era impossibile stancarsi perchè i SM ci trasmettevano energia. Che nostalgia !!!
For me at the Arena of Verona in 89 will remain the concert of all time with that of the Zenith of Paris in 1986 ... Thank you guys for it's two mythical concert!
@@henrydownes6301 There is no best band in the world. But Queen, Tears for Fears, Simple Minds, and others probably make up some of the best bands in our history.
Hallo, liebe Freunde, eines der besten Gruppe der Welt, der Einsatz der Instrumente bei diesem Titel ist bombastisch, einfach fantastisch, unübertroffen.

I took the ex to see them live in Glasgow around 2002..I was 22 and it was my first concert and still stands out as one of the best live concerts I've been too.. When we used to have a drink at the weekend's this concert on VHS would get played every other weekend lol.. Jim's energy on stage is awesome. x🎤💙🙏SIMPLE MIND'S are Simply amazing.. x
I was born in the 40's , but I love Simple Minds and 80's music. I suppose my daughters had something to do with this !

Being brought up in the 80s was a blessing :)
One of the best decades for music no matter the genre...it was intoxicatingly good!
Damn right it was !
It so was, let us rejoice in this Given🙏❤️
Oh the intro......... Magnificent...
Ladies and Gentlemen; THE finest rock group of ll time........

This must be one of the best music to start a concert with...
great big sound, Simple Minds the best band in the world.
What about Queen live Aid they where the very best
@@henrydownes6301 There is no best band in the world.
But Queen, Tears for Fears, Simple Minds, and others probably make up some of the best bands in our history.
They opened with this when I saw them at the NEC in Brum. The whole place vibrated with the bass intro. Wonderful
The best
One of my Favs all time.. * * * * *
