Von 2000 bis 2010 wurde das Lied "Belfast Child" verwendet, seit Sommer 2010 wird Gitarren-Riff von "Stars will lead the way" verwendet. DIe Band gibt es schon ein bisschen länger. Seid 1978.
Hallo Leute, wo wart Ihr den letzdes Jahr als das Album rausgekommen ist?????
Habe das Stück in 2009 bereits rauf und runter gehört !!!! Und 1982 habe ich die SIMPLE MINDS live erlebt! Was ich gut finde, dass es reichlich junge Menschen gibt, die gute Musik von Schlechter unterscheiden können.
@kleinalaine1 ....du hast sowas von recht!!! Ich bin auch nur durch den Krombacher-spot auf das Lied gestoßen, und ich muss sagen das es sich zu 200% gelohnt hat!!!
Morgen Kauf ich mir sein Album, denn so ein Künstler MUSS einfach unterstützt werden!!!!! Nicht so wie Lady Gaga oder (ganz heftig) die Katzenberger, die bekommen alles von den Produzenten in den Hals geschoben!
und muss sagen das lied ist echt geil! das is soo heftig gechillt!!! ich hab mir grade nen krombacher geholt und chill hier zu der music...einfach geil!!!!!
Habe Fussball geguckt und in der Halbzeit hauen die immer so die Werbung laut *nerv*, doch dann die Gitarren...einfach geil. Hinterher war ich ihnen dankbar, das die die Werbung so laut geknallt haben. Dieses Lied ist ein absoluter Ohwurm. Und jetzt ein kühles Krombacher :-)
Can anyone please explain to me why this band aren't still up there with u2 today..?....they should be one of the biggest bands in the world...their new stuff is incredible....hey what do i know?
Simple Minds still have it...great track...saw them in 1986...still awsome and I always thought they were a more accesible than U2 and less political.
ah lads relax,love both u2 and simple minds,in other ways minds have better songs but u2 won the states and i think thats what happend,going to see minds in o2 dublin cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!
You know local community halls are more intimate and have better sound quality, I'd see Simple Minds anywhere, atleast I would know they aren't a bunch of sellouts.

Its easy to take potshots at band that are so big,dont be so bitter that SM fell by the wayside and U2 achieved world domination so many times,was a fan of both bands since early days and no marketing or hype machine can make me recognise a good album when I hear it and sadly SM havent deliverd since Street Fighting Years where as U2 have consistently made great records ,its why people are still interested.
Consistentley made great records... yeah ok that's why everything post 1991 is mainstream sellout garbage!!! World domination doesn't mean you make great music, look at the Beatles, everybody loved them yet I know many bands who sell less that are better musicians!! I care about QUALITY not POPULARITY!!! The same holds true for Simple Minds... they are far superior musicians to U2. The fact that Bono is so unoriginal he had to copy Jim Kerr tells the whole story.
I don't care how many albums they've sold or how many awards they've won. Just because you're a mainstream whore doesn't make your music quality!! Zooropa, Pop, Leave Behind, Atomic Bomb yeah... those albums pretty much sucked ass. Vertigo has to be one of the most annoying songs they've ever written. I'm glad you're a fanboy/girl though cause you can come back and tell me they've never written a bad album or song. HA HA!!
The minds are amazing, don't care what anyone says, I'd watch them in any community hall over U2 in a stadium any day. Saw them recently at Edinburgh Castle and it was wicked, WET but oh my god, I cant even describe it, I', proud to be a Scot like Jim, Roll on SECC Glasgow in Dec xxx
All, I am from South America and can say the heritage and music of Scottland has always captured my heart. It all began with the sound of bagpipes. The rest is history. I get nervana with the minds, their music spurs my ambition and restores my weary mind. Be proud to be Scottish and of Simple Minds, its a gift to your kind form god. I am proud of you and by association because I am human also.
A surprisingly good comeback from Simple Minds. I don't consider myself a fan but this track is BRILLIANT!!! Incidentally, this song is being played on high-rotation (8-9 plays a day) on "Radio Creme Brulee" - an American internet radio station that features current pop/rock music from both sides of the Atlantic alongside guilty pleasures, forgotten gems, and radio hits from the 80s, 90s, & 00s. To listen, type "radiocremebrulee" in your google search field and it should be the 1st result.
Simple Minds came before U2, Bono is a Kerr copycat only Kerr is a hundred times better. U2 may sell more albums but albums sales has never dictated better material especially when the masses are so easily brainwashed by being told what to listen to and buy.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Dont think so mate,Simple minds went into oblivion early 90s dropped by record label,fans deserted them like a sinking ship,U2 came out with Achtung Baby a truly great innovative album,SM came out with real life which was more of the same drivel and effectively ended their mass appeal and resigned them to playing old cinemas and community halls,in the end the songs dictate U2s lasting and mass popularity,no amount of hype can get most people to buy a record unless its any good.
U2 hasn't been any good since Achtung Baby, so not sure what you're on about. Popularity doesn't make you better, I'll take quality over popularity, thanks.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Thats your deluded opion,however I think they have put out consistently great records since then,last album won 8 grammies including the prestigous album of the year,180million fans cant be wrong,enjoy simple minds in the local community hall.
I wonder why you are here if you hate Simple Minds so much, is it because you are embarrased that Bono copies Jim Kerr? You know "popularity" doesn't make a better band, right? Britney Spears is popular too, should I be scared? Being a mainstream whore of a band never meant much to me. You know the last time I turned on a radio? I can't even remember, it's been 7 years or more. Enjoy your "popular" U2 band that hasn't turned out a decent album since 1991. Exceelllennt!
Simple Minds' "LIFE IN A DAY" came out before U2's "BOY", you idiot... regardless of when the band was "formed" Simple Minds was on the scene producing records and videos FIRST. JS is right, Bono is a Kerr copycat. You sir have failed, nice try though.
@TheSchwurbel anybody can play boy stuuf in a garage with pots and pans !! yeah a band toghether for 4 years before they relased an album as you claim ! simple minds were recording and writing 3 albums before bono was free of acne lol fuck me if thats the case i was in a band at 4 years of age with my best mate lol
I think that you have a real problem. Probably you miss the best records of all time (New Gold Dream). This is a pure talent. Ok, American Science (Duran Duran) is a great song, but not even close to the New Gold Dream. What can I say about PInk? Real bitch.
I don't believe you know a member of his family, who said he was tight with money.
He just knows the true value of it, growing up in Glasgow with nothing..
It did'nt stop that rough old dog Patsy Kensit cleaning him out.. He did'nt seem to care.. As for forgetting his roots, no way, he still has a house in Glasgow! With the same glaswegian accent he's always had!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
HIs Glaswegian accent is as fake a Glasgwegian accent as any pretentious fake dick could possibly manage to contrive. I should know im from Glasgow.
I do know a member of his family and even his own father slagged him off on radio for forgetting where he came from. Hes a wanker and hes a millionaiare and couldnt give a flying fuck about you or me. Hes good at what he does but hes not a saint or an icon coz he looks like he has down syndrome.
I DON'T BELIEVE A WORD YOU SAID with your last comments... And your starting to give me " DOWN "??!! Syndrome.. So I rest my case.. You want a real WANKER check out Rod Stewart. Meanwhile I've got better things to do.
I još ću ti reći na hrvatskom. Jebem ti mater, ali ti nisi Škot. Da si Škot ponosio bi se vjerojatno najboljim bandom svih vremena. Znam da me nećeš razumjeti zato ti mogu jebat mater još jednom, đubre nedoraslo. Jebem mater i tebi i onoj kurvi Pink.
hahaha, upalin ovu stvar koja je prezakon i citan malo komentare, kad ono na hrvatskom :D i sve sta si onom debilu napisa. haha, nadan se da si bia ovde u splitu kad su bili, ima misec dana.
Nisam bio u Splitu. Bio sam na Krku i 2 puta u Zagrebu. Htio sam ići u Split, ali sam odustao. Ali znam da je bio HAJDUKOV ŠAL + JIM KERR. Simple Mindse po meni nitko nikada neće stići. Cijeli New Gold Dream album je nedostižni san za bilo koga. Najbolji band svih vremena. Ovaj album je čisti dokaz da su oni ispred svih barem 30 godina.
"Hes good at what he does but hes not a saint or an icon coz he looks like he has down syndrome."
Luckily, a person who judges someone elses moral character on such an idiotically shallow parameter as looks, carries about as much intelectual weight as as a fart in a hurricane. Bury yourself!

IS THIS NEW STUFF OR IS IT A SINGLE FROM 1983? HE HE...well considering Jim Kerr has a conditon i dont expect 'simple minds' (no pun intended) to evolve considering the lead singers mental age is 7 haha.
gregingram:- your comments are both irritating and patronising. Go and scuttle off and listen to your duran duran records. Now that's a band really stuck in the 80's. And judging by your profile pic your the one who suffers from down syndrome. Muppet.

This sounds the same as the 1980s stuff. SM have lost credibility coz they dont know how to evolve. This is identical to early music. Just the same. It is catchy. But not new.
EPIC!

U2 hasn't been any good since Achtung Baby, so not sure what you're on about. Popularity doesn't make you better, I'll take quality over popularity, thanks.

Thats your deluded opion,however I think they have put out consistently great records since then,last album won 8 grammies including the prestigous album of the year,180million fans cant be wrong,enjoy simple minds in the local community hall.

I wonder why you are here if you hate Simple Minds so much, is it because you are embarrased that Bono copies Jim Kerr? You know "popularity" doesn't make a better band, right? Britney Spears is popular too, should I be scared? Being a mainstream whore of a band never meant much to me. You know the last time I turned on a radio? I can't even remember, it's been 7 years or more. Enjoy your "popular" U2 band that hasn't turned out a decent album since 1991. Exceelllennt!

Bullshit, U2 formed 1976, Simple Minds 1977/78. So be quiet.

Simple Minds' "LIFE IN A DAY" came out before U2's "BOY", you idiot... regardless of when the band was "formed" Simple Minds was on the scene producing records and videos FIRST. JS is right, Bono is a Kerr copycat. You sir have failed, nice try though.

JIM KERR is a legend? i know a member of his family and they said he was tight with money and forgot his roots.
as for legend, that categories left for people with talent not 'Simple Minds' haah. wot a tosspot you 'Simple Minds' (haha LOL) fans are.

I think that you have a real problem. Probably you miss the best records of all time (New Gold Dream). This is a pure talent. Ok, American Science (Duran Duran) is a great song, but not even close to the New Gold Dream. What can I say about PInk? Real bitch.

I don't believe you know a member of his family, who said he was tight with money.
He just knows the true value of it, growing up in Glasgow with nothing..
It did'nt stop that rough old dog Patsy Kensit cleaning him out.. He did'nt seem to care.. As for forgetting his roots, no way, he still has a house in Glasgow! With the same glaswegian accent he's always had!

HIs Glaswegian accent is as fake a Glasgwegian accent as any pretentious fake dick could possibly manage to contrive. I should know im from Glasgow.
I do know a member of his family and even his own father slagged him off on radio for forgetting where he came from. Hes a wanker and hes a millionaiare and couldnt give a flying fuck about you or me. Hes good at what he does but hes not a saint or an icon coz he looks like he has down syndrome.
gregingram1970 2 years ago
I DON'T BELIEVE A WORD YOU SAID with your last comments... And your starting to give me " DOWN "??!! Syndrome.. So I rest my case.. You want a real WANKER check out Rod Stewart. Meanwhile I've got better things to do.

Yes, and I know you. You are completely idiot. Only idiot listen stuff like Pink. And of course, little girls, probably 4-7 years old.

I još ću ti reći na hrvatskom. Jebem ti mater, ali ti nisi Škot. Da si Škot ponosio bi se vjerojatno najboljim bandom svih vremena. Znam da me nećeš razumjeti zato ti mogu jebat mater još jednom, đubre nedoraslo. Jebem mater i tebi i onoj kurvi Pink.

Nisam bio u Splitu. Bio sam na Krku i 2 puta u Zagrebu. Htio sam ići u Split, ali sam odustao. Ali znam da je bio HAJDUKOV ŠAL + JIM KERR. Simple Mindse po meni nitko nikada neće stići. Cijeli New Gold Dream album je nedostižni san za bilo koga. Najbolji band svih vremena. Ovaj album je čisti dokaz da su oni ispred svih barem 30 godina.

"Hes good at what he does but hes not a saint or an icon coz he looks like he has down syndrome."
Luckily, a person who judges someone elses moral character on such an idiotically shallow parameter as looks, carries about as much intelectual weight as as a fart in a hurricane. Bury yourself!

IS THIS NEW STUFF OR IS IT A SINGLE FROM 1983? HE HE...well considering Jim Kerr has a conditon i dont expect 'simple minds' (no pun intended) to evolve considering the lead singers mental age is 7 haha.
gregingram1970 2 years ago
PINK + DURAN DURAN. What about your mental status?

gregingram:- your comments are both irritating and patronising. Go and scuttle off and listen to your duran duran records. Now that's a band really stuck in the 80's. And judging by your profile pic your the one who suffers from down syndrome. Muppet.

This sounds the same as the 1980s stuff. SM have lost credibility coz they dont know how to evolve. This is identical to early music. Just the same. It is catchy. But not new.
ps jim kerr looks though he has down syndrome
