  • Simply Red perform LIVE at the magnificent Sydney Opera House during the Farewell Tour in 2010.
    Bursting out of Manchester in the Eighties, Simply Red pioneered a distinctively British soul sound that captivated music lovers for 25 years. Now, as the final curtain comes down on the Simply Red era, this concert gives fans a last chance to re-live highlights of a career that yielded over 50 million album sales and a raft of chart-topping singles. Filmed at Sydney Opera House on the Farewell Tour in October 2010, it captures a group at the peak of their powers. Backed by a magnificent six-piece band, frontman Mick Hucknall's vocal performance shows once again that he has one of the finest voices of his generation.

They have had two US Billboard chart toppers with classic singles Holding Back The Years and If You Don’t Know Me By Now. Every Simply Red studio album has been a UK top ten (with previous release Big Love reaching number 4 in 2015). Hucknall has been the songwriter and bandleader since the beginning in 1985.

    As so many here have noted, Mr. Hucknall's voice has remained remarkably unchanged, but what I love is that he ALWAYS gives this song the respect that it deserves. He never effs with the arrangement and performs every note, capturing the nuance of the original recording. I still always think of the original video where he is roaming the English countryside with suitcase in hand.

      @@ryancang3627 I know, it's a live from 2011, but he was already 50 at that time.
      He started his career in the late 70's, considering major part of the singers start to have some problem with their vocal cords in their 40s, some in their 30s already, he is one of the rare singers.
      You can check the live from November last year.
      th-cam.com/video/l7GnVHmTiI8/w-d-xo.html
      Now he is singing in a way not putting too much burden on the vocal cords,
      but hey, he can still hit the high notes, and he can sing through to the end of the live. I think he is one of the blessed singers.
