I listen to this several times a week. Actually get quite emotional and brings back fond memories of earlier times and what an integral part of my life Simple Minds have been, namely Mick’s haunting keyboards. 57 years young now and this piece still gives me goosebumps. Maybe more-so with the keyboard isolated.

i would love to hear you play "east at easter" like you did in Verona 89 on your Kawai ♥................................................................................................... PLEASE!

I am getting the chills!

❤❤❤magnifique Mick

Wonderful to see this.

Thank you so much for putt‘n this stuff up

Wow

Still can feel it Thank you for the music of my life

Looks like 1985 Mick. Ya think?

This is gold. ❤❤

Was this 1985?

This is wonderful. Thanks for sharing. I've done some long-distance collaboration. Mark Andes of Spirit, Heart, Jackson Brown and many others recorded some long-distance guitar on my album that's about to drop. I sat in on the mixing sessions via Zoom and could hear the feed straight out of Pro Tools. Long distance collaboration is definitely an upside to the Internet!

Fascinating. I'd wondered whether you guys knew one another before you came aboard. Sounds like the answer is "not at first" I'm a musician/songwriter from Colorado. I came up through the prog-rock thing in the 70's, (especially King Crimson), fusion (Weather Report, etc), and jazz (Miles Davis, etc). I met an English girl who was visiting friends in 1978 and we married a few weeks later. Ann eventually got homesick so we moved to England, and I worked in a factory in Leamington. Then we moved back to the states, and then back to England yet again. I had to tell you all of that to tell you this: We were visiting Ann's parents in Coventry back in 1987. I heard the most extraordinary music playing from her younger brother's room. The bass, drums and the keys really caught my attention. I knocked, entered and asked Pete what he was spinning. He handed me the Lp jacket for LIVE IN THE CITY OF LIGHT and it was the GHOST DANCING bridge that just knocked me out. I've been a fan since. I had to stop being such a jazz snob. I STILL play those 80's albums and always buy the upgrades when issued. Oh and Ann and I are STILL married after 46 years, nobody thought it would last

s the family we see at the beginning of the Hyde Park section Mick’s? Beautiful kids. All grown now and swimming in the ebb and flow of life; tasting the bitter and the sweet. Thanks for sharing Mick

Mick, This now wakes me up every morning as my alarm clock inspiring music !!

Hello Mick. It’s Gail. I Love your music ❤

Top notch. Are all those sounds coming from the Nord?

Mick = Genius

Just been watching the documentary “Everything is possible”; Mel sums it up: “Mick was (is) a genius”. So true. East is Easter another great example of your extraordinary presence on a track. Thanks for this, great memories

All your hard work, effort, sweat, and tears to make people happy with your music. You all are just amazing.

Love that song so much. Wish I could play like that. Very talented guy Mick ❤️ up on the cat walk was another favourite.

Chills🤗... Always remember this opening the set on the 1989 SFY tour ❤️

Good to hear you play so beautifully, i remember you from the days of the Barnets playing accordion. We went to Bellarmine secondary and my husbands mum Mrs Campbell stayed across the street from your mum, she still lives there at 91 years young.

I cannot fathom why SM did not continue down this musical path. Producer Trevor Horn caused a lot of damage in my understanding (John & Mel walked out of the sesdions). Ahwhat could have been. This is glorious, introspective at the same moment

2:15 transition is such a beautiful transition. Goosebumps for this composer!

Hi mick, just want to ask do you still keep in touch with Charlie ?, and also wanted to thank you for the memory video on Kenny, it was very nice of Dan, brian and you.

What a beautiful melody, so peaceful yet has a harmonic tone to move you, all senses are moved!!!! Superb piece of composition.

Absolutely wonderful.

The intensity of this song brings strong emotions to the heart, thanks again for these immense melodies.

Trance As Mission...i love it

grandissimo

Wonderful (in young life)

Great times ❤

Grande Maestro ❤️

Listen Mick - there is me and many others, I'm sure, who would part with their well earned cash to come somewhere to see you playing this, mostly this among other stuff. This piece of music is sensational - it stirs me every time I listen to you play it. C'mon Michael, a wee gig somewhere, please? Thank you for the voice and the eyes - and the memory shine.

AWESOME!!! Thx Guys!

Absolutely stunning piece of music. Beautiful and eclectic.

You are a genius, a brilliant musician, I wish you were back with jim and Charlie, make it happen boys

When true talent shines it shines through you`ve been in the shadows for to long!

You guys shaped my young life. I can’t thank you enough. Probably the best bass player Britain has produced and Micks keyboards were and are some of the best out there. Thanks

Absolutely stunning. A masterpiece by Michael ❤😊❤😊

Brilliant ❤ simple minds will never be the same since you and Mel and the bass player in the sky have gone x

Thank you Mick for your genius - soundtrack to my life..

In reality, simple minds is not what it used to be. There is someone missing and.... : it's You. Big fan, I often immerse myself in listenning to the mythical albums like street fighting years, new gold dream or in the city of light.... God only knows for how long I will be nostalgic ; Maybe until my last breath.. Have a great christmas.. best regards. Jean-Pierre

The signature sound of early Simple Minds, utterly brilliant.

This is my favorite track off SFY album. This keyboard is just magical and incredibly moving

This is amazing. Hope some movie producers get to hear this. Would make for great soundtrack to a series. "Act of love is a luxury, the suit he wears belongs to me.. ."

get it released

hey mick, many thx for unforgettable memories of my life. I saw you and the band live a 5 times from 1985 to 1991 (2 x Munich, Vienna, Innsbruck. Füssen). Its true the band is the half without you. "In the city of light" was my first CD i bought and its until today on of the best live gigs i ever saw, and i saw a lot ;). So thank you again for one of my best times and moments in my live, i wish you the best and may health, joy and Contentment be with you.
