  • So hard to say a favourite track simply red have made, theyre all superb

  • such a great tune!

  • can't agree less: one of my preferred song of all

    this music always fills me with joy and peace

    the 4 people who don't like surely would prefer to go to iraq or afghanistan so i will let them go get killed while i stick here in a non smoking-free bar drinking some irish whisky withe a fatale blonde what else...

  • Love your mellow sound. All on the same page musically. Love it when it all comes together like this.

  • my mother wears this song OUT ! IT GREW on me man !!! lol

  • Das beste?..einfach alles von Simply Red!..ich liebe es ;) badabbabbau..if you aint rich..you wont go to the........lalala..you wont go there..Money was a thing that I believed in..ahhahaha..makes Happy!

  • Does anybody know exactly what this song is about?

  • @foxxyd81fox High Society. Selling soul and body. Always be hungry. Always be beautiful. Envy. - This is my point of view. I think the song is an ironic statement.

  • I love Simply red Ich habe alles von ihm =) Toller sänger =)

  • been listening to picture book in the car, this song is stuck in my head

  • reminds me of when my 1st daughter was born in 1986, i used to play S R all day long every day

  • This whole album is awesome.

  • OMG OMG OMGAWD !!!!!!!! STILL CRISP !!!!!!!

  • I can remember like it was yesterday. I played this song several times everyday and my girlfriend Sonja the Crazy Panamania said if I played this song one more time she'd leave me. Meanwhile that night as we watched Moonlighting on ABC this song came on at the end of the second scene. Needless too say I have not seen her since. WHeeew Thank you Simply Red...

    BTW... I went to the Ball with my fine Hot Cuban Wife by the 1990's....

  • VERY VERY NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I love this music!

  • anyone have the chords to this song?

  • @UnitedChampionais I have them! If you send me a private message with your e-mail address i can send them from Italy!

  • sooooooooooooooooooooooooo great!!

  • correct word of the text my simply red friend

  • i want dedicate this song to my past love LISA and to my friend Filippo Clary

  • Best Simply Red by far. Thatcher took away my England and turned it into something else. You had to live through it to understand. That what this song is all about.

    I'm rich, you ain't, so you won't go to the ball.

    Says it all!

  • Simply Red nella mente,sempre....

  • @19OLD86 uno dei pochi commenti italiani...confermo pure io...simply red ormai ns compagni di vita..ciao demetrio da reggio cal.

  • great track ,,i saw these .live in 1986

  • i have the cd just love it!!!

  • I like the part where he sings 'money was a thing I believed in ! lol

  • Comment removed

  • grande musica,saluti dalla sicilia.

  • Simplemente lo mejor.Que lo disfruteis.

  • Think this song is about politics which a lot of SR songs are. The walls of jericho r the greed that came about during the 80's when the tories were in power.

  • Love it! My fav!!!! What exactly is this song about?

  • I don't know what it is about to any one else. But I think it is about the excesses of wealth and emptiness of it. Especially greed !! England was going through a recession during that time. so I guess he was singing about that. How appropriate for these times ! lol

  • ESSA MUSICA É MARAVILHOSA

  • no se si viste que ya está disponible el video original de " JERICHO "

    hace tiempo que lo quería ver y no podía ser que un excelente tema y video no estuviese en youtube

  • Simply Red is Simply Superbe! I love this song. and Mick's red hair is Simply awesome.

  • they always have good lyrics, and afcourse his voice is fabulous.

  • Love this song, Picture Book is my favorite SR album. I hope Micks new music will be on the soulful side and your right Born2Flesh, there's no one like Mick.We love your music Mick!!!!!!

  • SR was slinging hits like gunslingers sling lead. This one in particular had that soulful spice. The guys in the band should be so thankful for Mick. ...no one like Mick ever.

  • The first time I heard this song was on a R&B radio station in LA. I miss radio having the freedom to play what they felt was good music.

  • SIMPLY SAD NEWS!!!!!

    Mick announces Simply Red will disband forever after 25 years following a 2008 world tour!

  • Not that the band has ever been the same for the past 25 years.

  • Well,this is the song!! probably the best of Mick´s songs. It´s still fabulos. you´re right beatc19 ;--)

  • Yes, this is THE best Simply Red tune. They had soul with this lineup.

  • beautiful song thanks!

  • fabulous lyric and tune:-)

  • gee, tell us how you REALLY feel

  • great souvenir from spain, in benicassim a club called "Takenos" i think in 86.never forget you.

  • Hucknall...unmatched, bar none.

    1st show live at the San Francisco Warfield Theater was simply historical.

    Mick where ever you are...one word discribes your talent, 'beautiful". Thanks for the post chakasmoothjazz.

  • It's difficult to say which is my favourite of Mick's because there are a lot of excellent ones, this one of course being one them. Though I have to stay Picture Book is one of the best albums.

  • god the 4th person on the right looks dead like mick hucknall

  • There was a great post several months ago with them in Rio I believe with Mick in beautiful long dreads...can't find it now but if anybody comes across it, I would really appreciate a point in the right direction! THANKS!!!

  • One of my all time favorites THANKS!! They always put on such a great show!!
