@DrArmandoPinto Yes , perhaps...BUT NOT THEIR FANS !!! ;( Only 54 000 views in 2 years ! What a pity ! So , if you are still alive , SHARE THIS VIDEO ON FACEBOOK and everywhere else for your friends ! OK ? GO NOW ! ;D In 2011 , SIMPLE MINDS should be more present on the web , but their fans seem to be old fashioned... But it's not too late , WAKE UP ! WAKE UP ! ;O)
best thing about this band is they don't follow trends, as some bands do and fall flat on their feet. They still produce the most amazing songs even after over 30 years in the business. Legends.
Great Song, First Time I have heard anything new from Simple Minds in long long time! They sound fantastic!!! I will certainly pick this record up. I have always been a fan of Simple Minds.
there is a plus side to not trying to progress in that ppl will always like ur music.Some bands try to hard to progress and they end up with shitty music
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Nice track. I think its great how Simple Minds failed to evolve into something other than the exact same sound they are famous for. They have not changed a single bit. and that will keep old fans happy but it does them no credit to their reputation by being unable to progress in any direction and sound like they did during their 1980s hey day.
En nog meer goed nieuws. In de European Top 100 en de Vlaamse Top 40 staat Graffiti Soul op 9. In NL zakt GS helaas naar 36. Charts zijn niet alles bepalend maar natuurlijk wel leuk. Het belangrijkste is echter dat GS weer een ouderwets goede SM laat horen. Kan nauwelijks wachten om bijvoorbeeld This is it live te horen.
Come on Nederlands! I thought you had good taste in music over there. 'Graffiti Soul' only entering the Dutch album charts at 29!? Come on, pull your fingers out of the dyke and buy this superb album.
SM komt in Engeland binnen op 10!! in Nederland op 29?? Kom op, koop dat album zo dat we Engeland kunnen verslaan! Bovendien koop je dan het beste album sinds b.v. Viva la vida van Coldplay.
For the first time since, maybe 1982, Der Minds are getting good reviews from the British Music Press. As for me, well I have a Johny and the Self Abusers singles bought in 1977, and thought they had peaked in 1981 with Sons & Fascination. Maybe I'm getting old, but this sounds pretty bloody good! Almost so good as to be a memory of May 2009!
Hey SM fans. Laat eens wat van jullie horen. Breng SM terug aan de top!! Ze verdienen het. Prachtige band met een rijke historie en een schitterende toekomst. Naar mijn mening worden ze in NL over het hoofd gezien. Volledig onterecht. Graffiti Soul is een heerlijk album.
Doe jezelf niet tekort en koop Graffiti Soul. Heb hem vandaag ontvangen. Even lekker wegdromen of headbangen bij Rockin in the free world. Hoop dat Moscow underground de volgende single wordt.
Moscow Underground is een fantastisch nummer! Misschien wel de beste van GS, maar als 2e single kunnen ze beter kiezen voor "Stars Will Lead the Way" of "This is It" denk ik...
Geweldig nummer. Album komt op 22 mei uit heb ik gehoord! Kan niet wachten. Free record shop vertelde dat deze gewoon in de winkel komt te liggen. Gaaf dat deze band weer terug is!
Can't wait for the 25th....will the album be at shops like Free Record shops at that time??Or only orders through internetshops?And is the album getting enough PR around here in the Netherlands?
Faddy's right. This is 5-star material. When you listen to it focus a wee bit more on the great guitar textures than on Jim's voice. That'll take it up a notch.
How can they come up with a brilliant album like 'Graffiti Soul'!? I'll tell you why: because they're resiliant Scots with fire in their soul and talent to burn. And we are the 'Graffiti So(u )ldiers'. Spread the word. Let's give the likes of Coldplay 'n U2 a run for their money!!
Fantastic first single... even better to come.. I love this band lets see them back where they belong.. roll on 25.05.09 for the release of Graffiti Soul.. an album you can't afford to miss!!!
This has only got a 4 star rating!? Get a grip, this an excellent song. Simple Minds are back. We have lift off! (And, yes a lot of the other songs on the forthcoming album are even better. Yeah, it's that good :)).
It's definitely 5 stars worthy. Rockets is great. The album is even better. After so many years they still love making music. And thats great. I'm going to visit Coldplay in september in Arnhem but I even look more forward to visit Simple Minds on PinkpopClassic.
Simple Minds are back. No lines on the horizon van U2 kan echt niet tippen aan Graffiti Soul. Moscow underground, Blood type o enz.. Fantastisch nieuw album
Black&White uit 2005 was al goed, maar Graffiti Soul is nog beter. Ook de bonus CD In search of the lost boys is yzersterk. Simple Minds op hun best. Verheug me op Pinkpopclassic.
Simple Minds is ressurected!

Rockets and Stay Visible have to be the best 2 songs Simple Minds have come up with since they returned with Black and White 050505
