Look how happy Mick looks. Really great to see. Thank you Mick, Derek and Brian for making music that has formed such an important part of my life. You are massively appreciated.
Classic...post by Mick. Awesome !!! This is how it should sound. Early 80's style. Love the way it starts with, in trance as a mission through to 30 frames a second, into celebrate mix. 👌 Can see at the start how your getting a buzz with a smile, playing your amazing synths at the beginning. Thanking !!! You, Brian and Derek also, for the fantastic sounds you created to all the dearly missed die hard fans. Regardless that no longer with Jim and Charlie. But either way, we all salute you 5 for all the creativity, hard work and entertainment over the years. Thanking also, all session players on dedication to bring out SM at its best !!! Just now waiting for a tour hopefully before you all retire. Was that 3 men went into a fish tank in the search of two other fishes to give us....... The world tour COUNTDOWN !!! a hint to say one is on the way ? HOPE SO !!! Or was that a big NO at the end?
Merci Mick et merci Derek. On n'a pas oublié votre génie. Vous apportiez une partie de la magie du groupe avec Charlie et Jim. New gold dream. 😚la France vous aime.
This is fking unreal ❤ So you still have the Korg Mick ! I saw your Jup 4 knocking about few year’s ago but already had one . Regards to Derek - I play bass because of him - I’m 61 but as a teen had the white baggies and white shoes and eventually the pbass Man THE best band ever for me. They make me cringe now. When Derek and Mick left it was end of an era for me. Warms my heart to watch this video.
Alright Mick? Good to see you lads having a great time & reliving the Minds' glory days. Loving the laughs & comedy in the video. Keep 'em coming. Great music by you all. Thank God you're not stuck on tour in Australia currently with the moody bastard & the latest lineup, you're there at home having a laugh, out in nature & remembering your fallen brother & letting the music heal the pains of the past. I'm raising my wee Tumbler with a few nips of holy water. Cheers lads, & thank you for everything! 🥃🥃🥃🥃
This is just out of this world and could listen to it all day on repeat! These guys were, and will always be, my Simple Minds dream time. Thanks for sharing Mick!
Wow. Please get a tour going. Please Please Please could you do Book of Brill things. Live version. Sat in the dark countless hours watching it over and over. Keyboards so emotive.
Absolutely brilliant stuff fellas!!..please let this be just a teaser!!the real sound of Simple Minds performed by those who wrote these classics 🎶🎶🎶👍👍👌
I really hope that you consider taking this "get together" further and make The Minds a touring reality. I know that there would be a huge interest to see you play live. I will be there if you want to make it happen.
This is bloody brilliant ❤ Next time the shed minds are together I don't suppose 'Seeing out the Angel' could make an appearance?? Brilliant to hear 30 frames, one if my favourites 😍
bloody love this!! bumped into Brian in Edinburgh airport a couple of summers ago - lovely chap and took time to chat to me and my mate a couple of long term Minds fans!
Ah, the smiles. As much as the music, seeing you fellas together playing music you love 'cos you love it - brilliant. What a treat this video is. And with John on the mix as well, it's Christmas in Feb. Love the shirts, as well as Brian's professional logo on the kick drum :-) And I'm sure and certain that the friends who are no longer around in person were loving the music and the fact that you all remembered them. Nostalgia maybe, but you all looked and sounded like friends celebrating who and where you are now. That's the bit that's got me with a smiley tear. Thanks so much for this, you're a fine bunch o' lads.
I was 'in trance' hearing and seeing this video, with a great climax at the end. This recording proves once again that you guys are still wizards par excellence. Please keep on playing and making music and letting us enjoy your wonderful and masterful creations.
What a gift. I feel so fortunate to have been just the right age to be transcended when I heard my first SM song which was Love Song and the soundtrack of my life was written. It took 5 special boys to make those amazing albums and how you nabbed Leckie who could have produced anyone is still just another example of how fate or providence has a way of putting something special in motion. Thank you for sharing Mick.
Nice to see the gang back together. Some of my favorite tracks from my favorite era of the band. After you guys left it was never the same. Original, innovative, inventive, fingers crossed for more from you in the near future. Thanks for the flashbacks ;)
Recently dropped my nephew and his mates in town they are all about 28 years old listen to the 80s radio all of a sudden the waterfront came on I turned up the volume the boys were blown away shouting who is that band I told that’s simple minds then I put music played them classic minds they loved it mick and I named the band
Stumbled across this completely by accident, was looking for Forbsee's bass riffs and found this .. excellent all. Great to see the best synth player in the world doing his sublime magic again 👌
As a SM fan it was a nice treat to have discovered this video seeing former band members get together and produce this gem of a film playing such superb music . You were the real Simple Minds no doubt the original. Beautiful journey you have been together.
Love it! Great puns too! Your recent uploads have been great - you look like you're enjoying making them as much as we're enjoying watching them. You guys should play viewer requests... Seriously...😀
I love Simple Minds, former and current and am not privy to the dynamics that transpired. It certainly has happened to many great groups of the past, Sweet, Styx, Little River Band, Yes, etc. Love what you are doing here. Sounds amazing. Thank you for sharing!
awesome...those years will live in my mind forever .. when i first heard Simpleminds when i was 15.. all these songs with great bass lines/ amazing drums and keyboard sounds that lifted the spirits... best line up ever !!
Hi Mick I worked behind the bar with Gerry Doran (exBelamine) in Rolls Royce club when you were playing with Buckshot long time ago all the best for the future

Get the whole band back together guys.. and fill Ibrox Park, Wembley.. .. Cardiff... etc.
That was SO good. You guys are utterly revered (and sorely missed!) by the hardcore SM fanbase!
Hit the nail on the head there pal 👌
With the greatest of respect to the current, touring line up, but you guys together totally nail these songs.
Looking forward to a tour🙏
🫶🏻Beautiful work, Mick and great to see you gents back together again. This will mean so much to so many (me included)! 👏🏻
Letting bygones be bygones with people that matter to you, and have shared something major with you, is a profound & spirit lifting experience.

Mick, you are the finest keyboard and accordion player - so great to witness this performance. Thank you again.

Brilliant Mick, the heart of Simple Minds back together. You guys need to tour !
so great to see, this is what the band have been missing from the 80s
Alright Mick? Good to see you lads having a great time & reliving the Minds' glory days. Loving the laughs & comedy in the video. Keep 'em coming.

I love the fact that you guys are jamming in the Hebrides and as I watch this Jim and Charlie are on a World Tour Down Under! Keep 'um coming Mick!
Wow. Please get a tour going. Please Please Please could you do Book of Brill things. Live version. Sat in the dark countless hours watching it over and over. Keyboards so emotive.
Great to see John Leckie with you, arguably one of most significant recording engineers and producers of the last 50 years. Keep at it folks.

Now thats the Simple Minds sound. Fantastic. Please start touring 🙏🏻💙👍🏻😀
Excellent stuff..... great to see you guys back together...
Although I think the current Simple Minds line up is fantastic I'd be first in the queue if you guys got back in 👊
I'm next in the queue Jamie - these briefs'll sell out fast!
Fantastic to see you guys together, a tour would be most welcome as that material would stand up live even without vocals ❤
Love it, love it, love it!!! Need to see and hear this and much more at a live show. C'mon guys, make it happen! 🙏🏼😊
‘For just one moment in time….’. Very fitting
Nice to see the gang back together. Some of my favorite tracks from my favorite era of the band. After you guys left it was never the same.

Stumbled across this completely by accident, was looking for Forbsee's bass riffs and found this .. excellent all. Great to see the best synth player in the world doing his sublime magic again 👌
