I remember this day so well. I was 15 watching the concert at home - and the bbc went to the news just before this song came on!! aargh! I had to wait until the highlights show that Christmas before I could see it. Mel Gaynors drumming is brilliant. And I remember I had a thing for a girl dressed in black with a blonde bob on someone shoulders in the crowd. Happy days.
the analagy with u2 is plain embarrasing. these guys have the best bass player, best lead gutarist, drummer and vocalist . cant compare u2 to these guys . u2 just spun 1 sound out forever and thats why they are so boring. if u disagree just check out the you tube history of videos, then u will know what an amazing band this is....no competition at all.
wahoooow. my teenage idols. i watched this video at least a thousand times on my dads vhs. i had the haircut. i had the jeans. i had the longsleeve. haha, good times.
thanks for sharing, after all, youtube is a good thing.
I remember this like it was just yesterday. One of the best concerts I've been too but the Mandela concert once he was free was even better to see Madiba in person
I like to feel sexy....knowing someone is watching me ..wanting me...turns me on!BADLY! I like to flirt and pose..and sometimes i like to get WILD! how? ..he he..come in video and youll see:-)) maybe u can teach me something..or maybe i will ! come visit me at MeetYourFling (.COM) my user-id there is damara-pmow chat soon on cam :-) pmtzvds
A brilliant live band!

I was there at the front and remember seeing myself on tv when i got home as i had videoed the whole gig. What a great day!
Simple Minds were and still are brilliant, but never the same once the genius that is Mick mcNeil left!

This was actually the start of Simple Minds demise...
When they started to follow U2's sanctimonious route and preach sermons to us plebs

THANKS for All your comments, I have had a great read. It would be wrong to delete this video now.
I only posted these videos because I could not find them on Youtube, and maybe someone else was looking too.
Click the video for widescreen.

20 años han pasado desde que se celebro este concierto. 11 de junio de 1988 en el Wembley Stadium UK, uno de los mejores días de toda mi vida.
