Being 52 years old, just bought some tickets for the October '22 Show in my hometown Bremen !!! I am equally looking forward to some classics but as well for this new stuff! There is no Musician except of maybe Ennio Morricone who has influenced my own Music so much and in addition build the Soundtrack of my youth so much... Thank you, Midge!!!
Love it midge, I'm 27 so obviously don't remember the days of ultravox or your very good solo music but my dad is a massive fan. I've seen you a few times with my old man and always an excellent show.
the video might nt be great but the man?? pure genius!! plays every instrument, just like the way he did on the bandaid tune! apart frm phill colins on drums!! geldoff gets the glory! he also replaced gary moore on guitar in thin lizzy and only had 48 hours to learn all moores solos, which he done with ease!! and a very nice, lovely and modest man, its a pity more so called musicians cudnt be like midge!
Great... .sounds like the best Ultravox from the Vienna/Quartet/Lament era.... and I love this... Midge is a scandalously underrated solo artist. This guy should be a superstar.... he does some of the same things that some stars do now, except he invented them earlier, has got clever lyrics and sings them better !!!
+noahmeme2 Hopefully!! That'd be great if that finally brought him the recognition he deserves but there's so much more to his music than a song in a video game!
+twisted whisker They've used his cover of The Man Who Sold The World and players of the game are loving it. One of the videos has over a million views now so hopefully they'll be interested enough to check out more of his songs
Still standing on my own No life no heart no love no home Still behind the door Waiting to be accepted And I can only wait so long Before I turn from nil to some Waiting here to be, to be, to be To become Something good Something strong To become what you rely on Take the chance To become Time to go Time to leave To believe what you believe in Make the change To become Wait, wait for everything To change When everything gets better Better for my solo, so low life Not so rejected If there's a God above Then send me love Take me where I belong To be, to be To become Something good Something strong To become what you rely on Take the chance To become Time to go Time to leave To believe what you believe in Make the change To become There's life for a lifetime But gone in a moment If life doesn't move Then there's nothing to show for it all. Something good Something strong To become what you rely on Take the chance To become Time to go Time to leave To believe what you believe in Make the change To become
How can one be so cool and souvereign... Sounds not like a copy of Ultravox or Visage but you still immediately recognise who this is. Great... Chapeau.
Superb! Been playing the Answers To Nothing album again after a long time away and rediscovering what a talent for a top tune this man has. He has more hooks in one song than a lot of artists write in an albums worth of material.
This song is just wonderful, can't get it out of my head since the day "Fragile" was released - okeks, not that i really tried 😉 The whole album is pure beauty 💕
poor kids today today have to grow up with the commercial rubbish the quick quid record company's dictate what they listen to when true musicians like midge and others are making great tunes like this... rant over
I love ultravox and midge ure but couldn't stop smiling at the video - it looks like he's wondered off from his care home and talking to himself in the middle of a field. I grew up listening to ultravox and visage and haven't heard anything new from Midge since the late nighties and this sounds good! Thanks for all the good times
I love this song so very much, what a fantastic tune 👌😃 Once i heard it i couldn't get it out of my mind anymore - okay, not that i really tried 😉 Absolutely outstanding 👌😃
Eres el segundo latino que encuentro describiendo este gran personaje de la música rok este Midge ure nació para un buen oído a la música sus melodías lo transporta, te saca de donde estes te hace llegar a mundos donde la buena música llena de vida "MI EXISTENCIA" . Gracias por existir Midge ure.
love that guitar solo on the end part, what a great song, bravo midge, you never fail to impress, very clever aswell how the song has two meanings at the same time, one on the surface, and the other runs slightly deeper, I love the underground club feel to it aswell, a wise genre to pick when you know they won't be charting much these days sadly, but he had his hey day ay midge:), love the video too, very well thought out and timed, and so real and simple I love it, who else has done this, still loving your music all this time after you're Ultravox days, pure quality delivered, wouldn't expect any less, keep going strong old midge:)
Great to see you back Midge with a new musicvideo. Love the track, the electronic sound and the melody. Can't wait for the album to arrive. I hope to see a DVD someday with all your videos, including this one.
Love love love the song and video!! Some familiar undertones of 'white china' in there that I can hear. Can't wait to get my hands on a copy of the new cd and vinyl !
who caress if it is not a high quality video, that is the problem with the people these days if a music video isn't super polished and doesn't have stupid amounts of money behind it to of had it made then people just dismiss it, and they don't look into it's meaning, this is actually a really well made video very well timed and thought out, and hey i love it!!! simple can be best and who else out there has done this, it's different which isn't a bad thing! and it does have a meaning i believe the video and the lyrics are saying that he doesn't have anything or anyone unless he becomes anything or something to somebody or they let him become someone to them, hence why he is standing in a field, he explains it in the first verse if you listen.
The forgotten hero of Live Aid has come up trumps with a brilliant new chart entry brilliant, hard to imagine this is the same guy that played with Slick
Hello Midge - if this is really you yourself ... then i am listening to someone who has found his "edge" again!!! I lost track of you for a while - but here goes... really strong on what you are good at: melody with that blend of guitar and keyboards/synths that I have liked ever since the days of Ultravox and your solo works ... thx so much Mani from Germany

My favorite Midge Ure song ............... a hug from Perú 🇵🇪 ...
40+ years of solid tunes. Why isn't he well known by nearly everyone?
Being 52 years old, just bought some tickets for the October '22 Show in my hometown Bremen !!!
I am equally looking forward to some classics but as well for this new stuff!
There is no Musician except of maybe Ennio Morricone who has influenced my own Music so much and in addition build the Soundtrack of my youth so much...
Thank you, Midge!!!
Midge Ure is one of the best musicians on this planet.
Polacy dziękują za ten utwór ❤❤❤😊
Roll on 21st May in Newcastle. Love the music this incredible talented man makes!
I think this is one of Midge's finest songs. Also really liking the video. True Midge, understated and sublime. Very addictive melody.
Love it midge, I'm 27 so obviously don't remember the days of ultravox or your very good solo music but my dad is a massive fan. I've seen you a few times with my old man and always an excellent show.
Ого-го-го!!!
👏👏👏
Дзед Мідж!
Дзякую за “Вену” ✨
Маё юнацтва, каханне то бвло! 🥂🙏
Brilliant song. Midge Ure's solo work and Ultravox have been a huge influence to us in our music.
Brilliant ! Spine tingling which doesn't happen to me very often these days.
the video might nt be great but the man?? pure genius!! plays every instrument, just like the way he did on the bandaid tune! apart frm phill colins on drums!! geldoff gets the glory! he also replaced gary moore on guitar in thin lizzy and only had 48 hours to learn all moores solos, which he done with ease!! and a very nice, lovely and modest man, its a pity more so called musicians cudnt be like midge!
Midge is an AMAZING CREATIVE FORCE... OBVIOUSLY!!! THANKS!!!
His voice is full of magic
😍😍😍😙😙😙
Midge Ure ..my favorite singer ..
❤❤❤🌷🌷🌷
Still that amazing haunting voice....will always love you Midge!!!
Love this song, love this album, LOVE Midge Ure! ❤️❤️❤️

This guy should be a superstar.... he does some of the same things that some stars do now, except he invented them earlier, has got clever lyrics and sings them better !!!
Marc Moingeon To his fans he is a superstar, always has been, always will be!!
That might change soon, they used one of his songs in the opening of metal gear solid five v
+noahmeme2 Hopefully!! That'd be great if that finally brought him the recognition he deserves but there's so much more to his music than a song in a video game!

That'd be great, they don't know what they're missing!!
In a word! Legend! What a Legacy!❤❤
Still standing on my own
No life no heart no love no home
Still behind the door
Waiting to be accepted
And I can only wait so long
Before I turn from nil to some
Waiting here to be, to be, to be
To become
Something good
Something strong
To become what you rely on
Take the chance
To become
Time to go
Time to leave
To believe what you believe in
Make the change
To become
Wait, wait for everything
To change
When everything gets better
Better for my solo, so low life
Not so rejected
If there's a God above
Then send me love
Take me where I belong
To be, to be
To become
Something good
Something strong
To become what you rely on
Take the chance
To become
Time to go
Time to leave
To believe what you believe in
Make the change
To become
There's life for a lifetime
But gone in a moment
If life doesn't move
Then there's nothing to show for it all.
Something good
Something strong
To become what you rely on
Take the chance
To become
Time to go
Time to leave
To believe what you believe in
Make the change
To become
❤️since I was a child.. Midge&Ultravox

Thank you Midge, as a french idol of you, your voice is still here, as a pro guitar player, no one can be YOU !!!
How can one be so cool and souvereign... Sounds not like a copy of Ultravox or Visage but you still immediately recognise who this is. Great... Chapeau.
