- Bono (U2) and Jim Kerr (Simple Minds) joint interview in 1983-07-03 (Werchter, Belgium). During that festival Kerr joined U2 on stage and they played together 11 O'clock Tick Tock. Unfortunately couldn´t find that video:(.
Bono (U2) y Jim Kerr (Simple Minds) entrevistados el 3 (o 4) de julio de 1983 en el festival de Werchter, Bélgica. Durante ese festival Kerr cantó junto a U2 11 O'clock Tick Tock. Lástima que no he logrado encontrar esa actuación:(.
Great to see two legends having a laugh together! Thanks for posting!
Bono is the man I love, and I'm so glad to see Ali there with him. This is REAL retro!
My two Favorite singers from what was my two favorite bands for over 20 years. Never knew they did an interview together. Cool.
at 1:48 you can hear "Shock the Monkey" from Peter Gabriel, this must have been a fantastic festival, Peter Gabriel, U2, Simple Minds, Annie Lennox...
Bart Peeters, Raymond van het Groenewoud... (if you were wondering about the other artists in the video)
What a cool clip. It's always fun seeing two musical greats together in the same interview. Wish they had let Jim talk more though. Bono seemed to take over the whole conversation ! Talkative little bugger ain't he ?
I was there and it was the most amazing couple of days between this and Torhout. You could really feel the magic from these two guys and their bands.
my fav 2 singers
Bono had his golden decade until the grand achtung baby, then came the stage and the band fell paraphernalia.
Simple Minds is a band that never sold and delivery is complete with fans.
I always remember Jim Kerr in South America in Chile and Argentina, its simple and its delivery to us fans was unforgettable.
Long live Simple Minds
Claudio from Chile
both great bands
i like Simple Minds and U2, by the late 80's Simple Minds had lost their way while U2 were bigger than ever.The difference in their fortunes i think is down to line up changes, U2 still have the same 4 friends they had at the start i think that speaks for itself.
Jim Kerr!!
SM fans bashing U2 is so petty. U2 is still creating hit songs and albums and their success is well deserved!
that pullover jim kerr is wearing is really rock n roll
U2 were good in 1983!
My 💖💖 :JIM and BONO...😻😻
JIM KERR THE BEST
Wish it was longer and I wish I could see more interviews with these two. I wonder if they are still cool?
j just saw simple minds on tv show for nelson mandela bir thday!
let me say j'm happy cause j saw mel gaynor on drums!
anyway it will be never enough my gratitude to simple minds for what their meaning in my life!
thank you jim,thank u charlie!!
I Actually fainted at a simple minds gig at the barras what a plonker
is that really Jim Kerr?.
Both are great,I always think Jim's voice was somewhat better.But overall they were similar,both bands had similar sounds.
That fainting joke is perfectly served by Kerr, wow.
and immediately perfectly destroyed by Bono
Great post, well put.
Jim looked so shy 🙈
@faddy24
Thx a lot! I just visited your channel and saw the audio-video in your favourites, great joint concert, I hope someone will be able to post the video, anyway was great to hear the audio, thanks!
verry nice video...
Historico video
U2 will always be the best!
The best is INXS
@ASkywalker1
I agree,just because U2 became the bigger of the two,does not mean the quality of Simple Minds' music is any less good.I honestly do not like any recent U2 works.
Calmster,Jim Kerr sings,Bono screetches...Thats what i`m on about!! Get your boots on??? What is that???
Definitely these bands were into world peace and had cool sixties-like ideals. Great bands musically nowadays, but where are these attitudes.
These guys are two of the most talented writers of our time. It's nice to see them joking together. Although I think Bono was really Joe Dirt in the witness protection program at the time.
I have seen both bands live, and without a doubt Simple Minds we’re far better live, but saying that I saw The Rolling Stones live this year and they were by far the greatest band I have ever seen
Bono and his wife at 1.09 and no its not Jim it's Alison lol
@MrAmadaeus Jim Kerr is Glaswegian,so he's scottish...
@ASkywalker1
You are very welcome!
Leuk! Rechtstreeks uit België, hihi
U2 are my favourite band, but to say Simple Minds or U2 are better is ridiculous. Of course you can argue about album sales, tour revenues, awards etc..In the end it's a personal choice and the argument to prove one is better than the other is subjective, when it comes down the music itself. Nobody should try to convince others that certain songs by one band is better than others, as that is pure arrogance, to impart your supposed greater knowledge and opinion on others. Both bands will appeal to people in different ways, that's what music is all about, whether it's down to vocal style, guitar sounds, song lyrics/subject matter etc. Unfortunately the dislike of Bono by many people, has often effected judgement over U2's music, which is a shame..
Little did they know that Bonos head was going to get bigger and Jims feet was going to stay firmly on the ground. Oh yes, I'm a minds fan BTW.
Really? Kerr fell out with one or more members of the Minds who were the songwriting backbone. After that they were never the same. He thought Burchill and him were the Minds and could do it all themselves. Big mistake. Everything they did after Belfast child is forgettable.
@AouretVolkenVisage
I have to agree with you!
Fery2: - I have the audio track of Bono & Kerr on stage singing 11 0 Clock Tick Tock/Someone Somewhere In Summertime, it's a recent addition in my favourites list. Just click on my name and you'll see it.
Jim Kerr is still out there rocking. Bono, however, ...
@ASkywalker1 and zooropa has one of the greatest u2 songs of all time stay... and one more thing as a live act they are very hard to match ..commercial success is nothing cant understand what you mean by that..
@curlyone777 I agree!
@imedi new gold dream totally wipes the floor with u2s best i cannot understand where ur thinking is lol jeez its from 1982 the music from that album is still sampled by djs and how many times you play it it never gets tiresome ! when it comes to creativity sons and facination,new gold dream is anything as good as u2 as ever done ! i think you really need to listen to them before you comment !
Bono is locked
Both bands made great, ground breaking music in their formative years. Sadly politics over took the music and both became lumbering, bloated versions of themselves. The quality, vibrancy and energy of their music was lost to money. Sad that both used to say that the boundary between performer and audience should be broken down. Not long after they would stride huge stages in those "leather pants" they claimed to be the antithesis to.
love how the video stops when Bono starts talking bollocks
Yeah, watch it, 'jr'. Your messing with the 'Graffiti So(u)ldiers' and we don't take any prisoners!
@sweetassugar69 that his is the better football team , i have listened to them back in the day they were a good band.. but now i never hear about them i thought they broke up years ago. and if u were so right then why is it today 30 years on simple minds are nowhere and u2 are in the middle of a world record selling tour (7 million tickets sold) i suppose its a case of u being right and 7 million being wrong even jim kerr would smile if he read your comments
Jim Kerrs' accent is ridiculious. He's from Toryglen not Ireland
@sweetassugar69 lol where is my thinking .what are u on!!!!!!! just because you prefer simple minds to u2 does not make your likes or dislikes set in stone.. in whatever format you want to compare thease bands grammys , album sales, concert tickets sold, world recognition u2 are so far ahead of simple minds its not even up for discussion you might as well compare simple minds to the stones or the beatles . its a bit like a fan of millwall football team trying to convince manchester utd fans
Some of the smug, complacent and snotty nosed UK media have continued to either sneer at Simple Minds as a less succesful poor man's U2. (Lazy, ill informed and conceited journalism) or have dammed them with faint, slightly patronising praise. Ignore the fuckers. 'Graffiti Soul' is a superb album and will be a big success, at least in Europe and Australasia.
If there was a talking Olympics then yer man Bono would take the gold medal for the world's most overrated country, Ireland. By the way the new Simple Minds album is a huge return to form. Best album they've done since 'New Gold Dream'. It's called 'Graffiti Soul'. 5th best selling album in the UK at the mid week point. So should chart well into the Top 10 next week.
@heliwithH Bono > Jim Kerr
Ummm the haircuts :)
ahahaaa Bart Peeters. da's belle!! snotjonk
@Westerdd LMFAO!!!
There`s a band on this earth that led the the way,with rock,emotion,class..S.M...Lets compare,voice or screetch,Charlie or effects,Genius Derek` lead bass guitar` or 3note Adam,Mel Gaynor or rumpapumpum..throw in Michael Macneill for our side& its no contest..Feed Africa?? Hypocrite wants to start payin some taxes..U2s music is class,shit new album but they all have 1..Mercenaries..Saw The Minds 44times,last at E`burgh castle,Cork&L`pool..roll on Dec gigs..No contest..Taxi for Bono..
LOL They're wasted!
get back to me when sm playout a 7 million tour and win 23 grammys for all those great albums...o yes but then again all those music producers are wrong too and u know better rofl.. look u could not stay at the top of the league for as long as u2 have and done that if you did not have something apart from the stones noone has done that.. hype might have worked for awhile but 30 odd years come off it. u just prefer sm to u2. you would not be alone. but there are alot more people that prefer u2
@sweetassugar69 lol the old my band is the best ye all just dont get it argument and you dont give great examples bowie is a legend just like u2 time just caught up with him just like it will with u2 lady gaga is a far better song writer than you give her credit for.but she is only done it for a short time . its not my cup of tea but it shows how narrow minded your taste is that you cant see that either and maybe sm tour did sell out they will be lucky to reach a million fans
U2 has fallen very deeply. The last 3 Simple Minds albums beat anything U2 did in the last 18 years
Simple Minds makes music still? I know U2 is still creating hits.
@@Enne_esse yep and their last couple of records have actually been very good. By accident I heard a song of Graffiti Soul and thought hey let's give the album a listen since their 90's stuff was really terrible and bloody hell did they find their mojo again. Compared to U2 who was helbent on making mediocre music since 2000 The Minds actually are making really good music again. Big Music is another great album.
Hippie
yes best bands of the 80's agree with cosmu2!
but Simple minds (J saw 20simple minds gigs and 12 u2gigs from 84 to 2006) are better band live!!
and yes!!one pope is enough!!
bono "come back" to the music!!
@ASkywalker1 its like the line opinions are like assholes everybody has one i feel more or less about sm they you feel about u2 i did not like pop when it came out but it has a few greats songs on it nloth also has some great songs although get on your boots is utter garbage but white as snow is as good as any u2 song from the 80s or 90s.. but for me ab and the joshua tree are 2 albums sm have never even come close to matching as much as i like their music
They are so pissed.
dirkbogarde44 really ? ...... Jim Kerr is teetotal
Get a haircut!
@ASkywalker1 lol thats why u2 are where they are and simple minds are nowhere
@sweetassugar69 and to answer your question about nloth it would not be my fave u2 album either u2s real greatness came fom 83 to 93 which had 2 of the greatest albums of all time joshua tree and auctung baby that have pissed over everything sm have put out in their entire history just because you cant see it will not make a difference its like a person prefering marmite to icecream trying to convince everybody else that they are wrong and i know best ha ha get over it u sound pitiful>>
@ASkywalker1 lol i was a fan of simple minds back in the day but to say u2 are where they are because of publicity is so laughable you might as well say the same thing about the stones or the beatles and as for the old boring 2 chords argument you could say the same about the beatles 180 million albums 22 grammys u2 moved into the stratosphere simple minds nowhere GET OVER IT ps you will find u2 fans just as dedicated following them across continents for months at a time
