Love, love, love, love this. This awesome. Can't get the bloody tune outta my head. Shades of Television, shades of early Simple Minds. I NEED to buy the album. I NEED to see them live. I need to but the freekin t-shirt!! Haven't been so into something this bad in a long time. Jim Kerr is THE man!!
a call to arms for all simple minds fans please check out Promo Electroset video performed in Hamburg on the 4th of August 2010 for German Radio Station NDR2 on his new lostboy website
Heard this on Radio 2 yesterday, didn't catch the artist but thought "Wow - It's great, sounds like Simple Minds a la 1980s!" Looked it up on Steve Wright's play list and it's Jim Kerr!!
Just that truly eclectic mix of raw vocal ability, stirring melodies mixed with a punk rock feel that makes Mr Kerr truly one of the greatest artists-and the unmistakeable mel gaynor'sdrums help a little too!!! AWESOME!!
I 'm always at a loss for words when it comes to talk about Simple Minds ! WONDERFUL , MOST PRECIOUS , DIVINE ! Which is the right adjective ???I'm afraid there isn't ANY ! I've also been a Fan from the VERY BEGINNING . Clem7
Great track! Although Graffiti Soul was a decent album this is better than anything GS has to offer. Graffiti Soul's follow up simply must be at least as good as this!
think some people are missin the point here comparin with simple minds material, ive been a minds fan since they started, but this isnt s.m. doesnt sound like the minds to me, stuff is really good, and i hope the rest of the solo material, is as good as these songs, j.k..s voice sounds superb, but its not simple minds, people are comparin too much, songs are really good,,- big tam g .
@BIGTAM100 couldn't agree more. It's good and catchy but lacks SM originality, sounds more like a successful regurgitation of old material, which may be just what JK was aiming for, so it's OK.
*LOVE* this, too, but "Refugee" is absolute, Top 40; "Shadowland" is catchy and *danceable* (which Popular Music really is all about). "Refugee" is even catchier; even more danceable (it's on my MP3 player---*THANK YOU* Jim Kerr, for the free download!). Really looking forward to hearing *more* in May! *Rock on*! :-D
oh yes!!!! Both tracks very sm but refugee sounds early sm, shadowland very graffitti soul, both amazing, but give me early sm, more synth and heavy bass, Lostboy you have hit the spot.......Keep hitting it and congrats
again yet another corker of a sound!!! keep it coming Jim. I cant wait for the album and the new material metioned from simple minds. you never dissapoint
This tune has it all. Good solid vocals and a catchy tune!! Should be released with links from Facebook and Twitter!! More exposure...more people love in it!
Way to go Jim. Your are back in business! Nailed it.

La voz de Jim Kerr es la voz más sensual que escuché en mi vida.
Tengo la sensación que este va a ser un gran disco. Este adelanto de Shadowland y Refugee suenan muy bien para mi gusto. Vamos Jim!!!

Jim Kerr è sempre mitico anche senza i Simple Minds.
Shadowlands è praticamente stupenda.
Non vedo l'ora di ascoltare tutto l'album.
A presto a Taormina Jim.
