No auto tune, no backing tracks, just pure live talent.
What a voice
Such a clear voice. Tony Hadley is one of the most underrated singers ever.
Why do I find it hard to write the next line / oh I want the truth to be said
Francesco Maiano absolutely!
I totally agree. His voice doesn't need any voice enhancer.
So perfect
It's good
I was only 16, in France, they were an underrated band, despite the rumours, the diamant voice of the singer could go on and on during a whole concert, no fake, pure talent. Still fascinated by his solo albums
17 in Australia, Live Aid blew me away.
You are damn so lucky as I ve exchanged here about mind blowing Freddie Mercury s performance at Live Aid. I m French, living at 12 km from the Eurockéennes site at the bottom of the Vosges Mountain range...warm greetings
@@laurence.MusicAndSights It was pretty amazing for a country boy living in the sticks, not that there's been much to top it in the interim...
@@fckuyo3918 I wish I knew your first name or nickname cause your pseudo sounds aggressive.
Mine is Laurence or Laura Ingalls (was not a desired child, so was raised on a farm by my grandparents part time who had been resistants during the 2 world wide wars, both were anti clerical, anti particular religion but had VALUOUS)...no fun no toys, hard work, studious, curious and entirely self sufficent at 12 already, working in the midnight oil to pay for long studies.
Music, gratitude, humility, nature , cosmos, languages have saved me...I worship Indians from America, the Maoris and above all the Aborogines 'creeds and ways, culture. Since the invention of steam, everything has gone from bad to worse. Then the chip in 1984 for credit cards. I stopped at windows 1995. Have no smart phone, just a PC for work , researches (biographies, quality magazines ...) youtube is my only social network. WE COULD HAVE SHAKEN HANDS AS CHILDREN...wild and mild...
I m at a loss now...the material world is not my cup of coffee. Living in New Zealand? Too old to sell my eco friendly cottage and leave the survivors of my family plus fragile health due to ill treatment and overwork.
Sorry ...the sown seeds of my origins are showed. Where do you live in wide 🇦🇺 ? I would have like attended woodstock with young Joe Cocker. Good bye from a talkative woman hoping your are not a criminal or smooth operator
Oups the chip was invented in 1974 I guess, remembering my daddy...wikipedia SOS
Holy crap!! Tony never got the respect he deserved for his amazing vocals!! Wow. This performance was epic back then and now I really appreciate this group and Tony's vocals.
Unfortunately not a one of these guys is left in the band!!!!! Spandau ballet is no longer spandau ballet!!!!! What a bunch of B. S.!!!!!!! Just another case of people not being able to get along with each other and everyone that was a fan of theirs has to suffer!!!!!! They were great!!!!!!!!
@@cyclist7s Just Gary Kemp right?
Tony Handley has one of the most beautiful voices.
And sexy’s so far!
Your right there so underrated ..... 🏂🏂🏂🏂🏂
yes tony best voice pop
And handsome men,...Ever!!😍😍😍😍😍
Such a pure voice. He sounds as great live as he does on a recording. That just doesn't happen.
Agree…!!
He sounds like if he was in playback!
That's Big Tone for You!😂😂
What a beautiful voice… and he hardly gets winded running around the stage.
🎉🎉🎉
Amazing voice control!...what you hear recorded is what you get live
One of the (if not THE) best pop vocalists of all time!
Besides maybe George Michael I agree!! 😮
@@joeltravels8983 George is definitely among those that made me say "one of the" about Tony.
Tony Hadley is the perfect description of a gentleman ,a sexy gentleman and a perfect singer
The first time I saw him in the "True" video I melted. My dream Englishman singing about love...
@@kandelika2902 Tory Hadley, more like...
Anthony Patrick Hadley was born in London
May 2023 .. loved them in the 80s. Love Tony Hadley today. HE IS SPANDAU BALLET.
Nothing can replace or duplicate a live performance. And this concert sounds as fresh and exciting as it did in the good old 80s
exactly. (i'm pro musician for long time now, both studio/live..)
... and then the farce-demic came
SUCH a great voice and performer.
Oh, and the band sounded pretty good, too!! lol
What a voice. I mean, what a voice!!
I remember watching this live on TV... I was only 11 and I didn't know how I would miss those times...
I was 10 at that time
I was -22, and that's actually sad for me...
I have no idea of how that event was, but if something like that would happen again i think that i would not lose that show for any reason!
(Sorry for my bad english)
So was I...born 10-3-73 in NJ here 😁
А мне было 7 лет, я понятия не имела об этом певце и вообще об этом благотворительном концерте, но теперь я потрясена атмосферой, царяцей там, и талантом музыкантов!
Tony Hadley had and has a so powerful and hot voice...
ikr
Tony Hadley, Morrissey and Pat Kane from Hue & Cry are, in my opinion, the most complete vocalists of the 80s, although Tony got even better over time. His voice aged so well.
You ve made a point here, good husband, quiet, no tormented by drugs, really our legend
Tone, Pat and Pete Cox from Go West- this side of The Pond in My view. Tone seems like a top bloke despite being a gooner😂.
Every song sounded like a James Bond tune to me back then! you are hearing his voice thru the board without effects...thats how you know he is a great singer...you only know how good a singer is when you hear their voice plain.
This is one of the best performances of the day
I've recently listened again to Spandau (earliest was during my childhood in the 2000s, my Mom loved True so much). I have to say Tony deserves more spotlight!!! His vocal range is massive, clear & he has great control over it! He mentioned he has a good work ethic, so I was thinking he's very disciplined on taking care of his voice. Such a true artist. 🥰
P.S.
sorry for any grammatical errors, English is not my native language.
I agree, he's taken great care of his voice and it's as strong as ever, maybe even stronger.
And your English is *excellent!* Far better than that of a lot of native speakers. 😊
Brit funk at its very best. Still love this song after 40 years
oustanding live performance
😎🎵🎶🎼❤️❤️❤️❤❤❤
"Only When You Leave"
Laying in the after glow,
I only want to learn what you know,
But now you're leaving...
How many hearts must you break?
How many calls must I make?
But now you're leaving...
In this world, all that I choose has come unbearable
But love is in your touch
Ooh, it's killing me so much
Only when you leave
I need to love you
And when the action has all gone
I'm just a little fool enough to need you
Fool enough too long
Only when you leave, you'll leave in danger
Oh, I'll make sure that you pay
So give a little passion to a stranger
And take this soul away
I only want to make this things last,
So how could this have gone so fast?
And now you're leaving...
How many times must I learn?
It' s only when you've gone that I burn,
And now you're leaving...
In the end, all that I left has come unbearable
It's hard to change your mind,
So leave it all behind
Only when you leave
I need to love you
And when the action has all gone
I'm just a little fool enough to need you
Fool enough too long
Only when you leave, you'll leave in danger
Oh, I'll make sure that you pay
So give a little passion to a stranger
And take this soul away
Live aid remains a like a snapshot in time of how great music was in the 80's and these guys were at the height of their popularity here.
... A little bit mainstream, other great band in 80's was Stunning!
Saw Tony performing live two days ago. Still has great voice. Ciao from Italy.
Can‘t explain how much i love the 80‘s 🤩
Same here, so glad I was in my 20's right through the 80's.
Best decade ever to be young and alive 🎉🥳🍾🎈👯
This is the best song of Spandau ballet 👍🏻👌🏻 Fantastic!!!!!
Agree there. My favourite.
one of the best songs at live aid
I got tickets to live aid at the last minute (they announced they'd found some unsold on radio 1 & I phoned the box office !,) It was all great, top bands great live music. What a lucky pup...
This is my favourite SB song. Tend to hear Gold or True more.
Me too!
when i started to appreciate the new wave music that's the Spandau Ballet band i loved the music and the group i have a crush to Tony Hadley he is so handsome n cute face.
Tony ,es increíble canta excelente ,buen registro de voz ,una voz clara ,fresca ,lo mismo que escuchar en una grabación de estudio ,es genial .lo amo 😍🥰
we need to do a show like this again. the world is in need of this.
Ill second that thought!!!!!!! Only 80’s artists though!!!!!!!! Mr.Geldof how bout it sir??? Im sure you could do it!!!!!!go for it!!!!!!!!!!!! I’d be there for sure!!!!!!!! A lot of the same singers and groups plus 80’s artists that were not there, that would be awesome!!!!!!!!!!
Showing some 80's pop bands can kill it live. They had a great set at Live Aid.
Tremendous Band!! Tony Hadley & Steve Perry the BEST vocal leaders!!!
Can someone please invent time travel. I only want to go back to this day, this concert. 😊😊
An awesome Live Performance - such a pure and golden voice. I miss this music
This is a fantastic live performance by Spandau Ballet of one of their great songs. They sound awesome. It's so fun to watch this Live Aid video from 1985.
Clean voice!!
Rips through the air!! 😮
That was a great day! Never forget that day and concert. Never!!!
Brilliant performance 👏
This kind of music was never really my thing but this song was an exception. Love the bass and keyboards, great lyrics and well sung. You can tell Tony has been trained to hold back a little and protect his voice which is why he can still sing today when most singers of his age lost it years ago.
has the same voice to this day ... amazing indeed ...
O charme dos homens na década de 90 era incrível. Que tempo bom.
This always gives me this summer chill out vibe
It sounds crazily close to the studio version! What a professional!
But this is at least 20 bpm too fast 😂
Handsome 😍 Tony love his voice
A Great Performance from Spandau Ballet
Tony hadley voice is amazing until now and the group bands really nice.
They're underrated
A perfect show! Beautiful days and generations from 1960 until 1990, if the world had frozen on these dates. 👏👏👏👏💋👍
Tony Hadley una voz única, Spandau ballet ese sello que da al grupo de elegancia , un gran grupo, que dio con varios estilos de música, pop, tecno, rock, soul etc..
Nossa banda muito top🤗 anos 80 não tem pra loco😮
Tony so clean to see before when hes young until now hes older always goodlooking
Dashing
Tempos maravilhosos, éramos felizes e não sabíamos, 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
A gente sabia que boa só pensou que não acabaria .😂😂👍
Hasta hora somos felices esta cancion esta en mi lista de las preferidas y hoy la escucho y disfruto por enesima vez :) enjoy it too
Seen them live many times brilliant
One of the best bands a salute to Tony Hadley and his musicians from 🇨🇱 Chile.
Glad to have been a kid back then!! Grateful and Truly Blessed today.
One of my fave bands of 80s
When live is actually much cooler and sounds a lot better than on the album - Great Band, great epic song !
I know Queen were good on the day, but this performance has been overlooked many times, they were just as awesome on the day, and I'm not really a big Spandau fan.
I have to agree, during True, the audience was just as engaged.
Mr. Balloffur They sounded so together and with no sound check.
Exactly !!! You do not "steal the show" in a charity event, you simply do your best for the cause ... but you now, the now so called "Queen" made a huge publicity stunt out of it.
Madre mia!!! parece la voz del disco!! MARAVILLOSO. Me encanta. Maravillosos años 80. Love
One of my favorite rock bands - Spandau Ballet!❤❤❤
Trilha sonora da minha vida! O LIve Aid foi um momento único!
Great voice also great performance from the band 😀👍🏻
me trae recuerdos que nunca vivi, estas canciones transmiten sentimientos indescriptibles en mi otra vida habre vivido en esos años donde la musica realmente era apreciada y tenia un significado en la vida del que la escuchara.
me pasa lo mismo estoy segura que estuve en ese concierto no se porqué me es tan familiar
Beautiful voice!
Pra mim um dos melhores catores ao vivo. Beira a perfeição
Amo ésta canción me fascina desde que mi infancia 😘😘😘😘😘
De qué año eres Mirna?
Muito lindos ótimo cantores músicas de primeira amo Spandau
A melhor música deles na minha opinião! Bem a cara dos maravilhosos anos 80!
Tinha 17 anos marcou minha adolescência Tony hadley lindo homem
Indimenticabili spandao ballet sentire questi brani e come ritornate indietro nel tempo tanta nostalgia di quegli anni 80 insuperabili ❤😂😢😢😅
My god I was 14 it was unbelievable ❤
Sarà la voce di Tony ....sarà che erano gli anni più belli .....emozione pazzesca
Tony Hadley lindo de viver e com voz perfeita... ❤
Eles todos homens lindos Jesus
This was the greatest concert ever...Sorry Woodstock fans ☹️. Queen killed it...Their performance was legendary. Spandau Ballet sounded pretty good here too.
Not only queen also U2, The cars, David Bowie, and many More
@@bennybandong3259 yessir
Stunning voice dear Tony
This is exactly how you should convert your studio sound into your live sound - a bit sharper, faster, harsher. It needs to be like that, for the acoustics/sonics that you get in big arenas. They're a really tight band
Unbelievable, what a voice
I agree no phones kids believe it. So lucky to be a youth in the 80s and part of 80s music and our hairstyles and fashion sense 👩🏼🎤👨🎤🇦🇺
Its only because they weren't invented. We would have been just the same.
AAmo este show tenho gravado em fita cassete amooo
Great voice by Tony Hadley.
Wow!!! Can we go back to that time??? When we were young, lez go!!!!
Great talented band
Hermoso Tony y toda su banda
🕺😎❤️
What a day, what a moment in time.
Still enjoying this beauty in....
.....Oct. 2020!!!!!!!!!
I’m astounded at his vocal talent! Fond memories of the gorgeous ‘80s and the best music.
WONDERFUL! CHIC, TRES CHIC!
Estádio Wembley como gostaria de estar aí nessa época
Love this song so much ❤ when now its 2022.10.17 ❤

I miss the 80's/...Great time to live
Eravate alquanto molto straordinari fuori e dentro i vostri grandi concertoni Spandau ed io vi o sempre stimato ed ammirato tanto sapete siete veramente in gamba veramente ciao ed a presissimo??😅😅
Amazing. Absolutely no one is looking at their phones in the audience.
Frank Cawley they didn’t have them lol
The house brick phone was a bit bulky to carry around to concerts.
Did you watch this on your phone? Can’t have it both ways...
It's 1985 !!!
I would be amazed if someone in 1985 took their phone.. They weren't exactly portable 😂
Like Wet Wet Wet with Marti Pellow singing, Spandau Ballet with Tony Hadley up front, a very fine group of players, some great tunes and a sound of their own were one of the better bands to rise up in the 80s. They mightn't have qualified as 'cool' with the critics, but like Tears for Fears, the Police, Style Council, Sade, Talk Talk and those various other notable major chart toppers they were an integral part of a decade that saw music rise up from the 70s excesses of prog, the fading of glam, the brief outburst of punk and the rot of disco, to make pop accessible, fun, and often rather good.
My only complaint about this clip is Hadley's insistence of wearing a leather coat on what is obviously a hot day. I put the choice down to 'show biz', but still....
Anyway, brilliant tune and great performance. The 80s weren't as bad as the cynics would have us believe.
Great performance!Spands are the greatest
Truly 'True' was Spandau Ballet best song.......❤
Steve Norman ❤that look ❤
