I saw them in Toronto at Massey hall about 10 years ago….a:aging concert and his voice and energy hasn’t changed. One of the best concerts I have been to
I don't think back in the 80's I realized just how unbelievably good these groups really were. They sound better then ever. Long live the awesome 80's music.
I have adored this band since I was a teenager, when they first came out. This is music. They play their instruments or voices. Even as they age. I get the shivers no matter the Simple Minds song I listen to.
What a great band . Back in the late eighties I went for a lunchtime curry on Westbourne Grove and Jim and Charlie were at the next table . I wanted to tell them how great they were , but I reasoned that they already knew
first heard them when my first son was 2 , we where upnoth at a lake and these girls where playing simple minds on their boombox at the lake, and they were so nice they were giving him pretzels , i bought the album when i got home.
"For I am the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth." ... Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
Too bad they screwed up the third verse...messing around with the guy with the scarf. But truly a great performance...always thought this would be fantastic with an orchestra - I was right!
L' ho sempre saputo, detto, Carismatici, Orchestrali già da Band, poi è tutto Letteralmente qui con gli strumenti di Ottone, Trombe altri e Viole Violini Primi e secondi, Tutti gli Strumenti d ' Orchestra vera 40 Elementi e il direttore di tutto il Setticavio le 7 Chiavi !! Ok.
What? They serve alcohol in this Venue of Peace? Damn, I have to leave. Wouldnt be kegal for ME to stay. (The "Help" demanding if audience 'a la' Buckle and John)

Amazing. Simple minds so underrated.
I'm Irish and U 2 were always likened to Simple Minds.and Simple Minds were more exciting for me if the truth be told .

seeing them Wednesday....better than ever. don't let the demons in.....
I love this version, very nice with the orchestra playing along.. love the long intro
They can still kick it. Brilliant!
Great Great simpleminds Jim voice is again wonderful
I've seen simple minds 4 times and this song has never been performed this awesome
+Daniel Simonton It felt like the WHOLE world was singing with Jim Kerr
Daniel Simonton best version is in album ''live in the city of ligh''
Don't know that I agree, but their performance of Waterfront on that album is hands-down my favorite.
The lyrics were all over the map though. Seemed like he got a little lost.
I love the message and the images of stained glass in the background.
Just wonderful. thank you for posting this. Met these guys on the Real Life tour, very decent chaps. Talked guitars with Charlie for about 20 minutes.
Always loved this band so full of energy!!!

I dont even drink. Picked up a glass once. Blah. Did the time for it too.
with the symphonic prologue it somewhat resembles the '88 version: th-cam.com/video/0SmrP5qmdMU/w-d-xo.html&feature=related
Grande fridgeing goodie
@wendileona a little late for that.
you know someone succeed when he s 50 pounds more

Always had great bassplayers, but this guy wasn't one of them.....
I'm here for the chicken dinner.
Dont mind me. The Jennifer's? They go everywhere.
He never sings it like he did in the 80's. Always a new version. BS
If you want to hear how he sang it in the 80's, buy the album and be done with it
I agree, his phrasing is terrible, he leaves out so many of the words. he gets the tune wrong as well.
My God...the Judiciary! It's ALREADY wants MORE mashed!
Its stuffed! Stupid thing is going to rupture, I dont know about splits..
Nice smoking speed now
Charlie needs to do some excercise!
