The underrated are usually the real great ones. The best band ever to come out of the greatest small country in the world: Scotland. Lovely song, poignant, heartfelt lyrics about lost love.

From an under-rated album, a beautiful song !!!

SIMPLE MINDS stood strong throughout several decades. Their music remains alive and kicking for now and the future. Life is simple beautiful and so are you.

[TheTw7]

beautiful, melancholic, understated, i always picture a bleak wintry countryside when I listen to this

[lutchedoze]

I totally agree with all the positive comments on THE GREAT SCOTTISH SIMPLE MINDS, successful FOR EVER. I really love`em. Lutchedoze, Brazil.
