I learned today you will be guests star of Amadeus at Arena Suzuki 2023 in the magical Arena of Verona!!Is this true news? Wich evening will you be there, so I'll go immediately to get the ticket!!.
Charlie Burchill is such a great underrated guitarist! One of my fave guitarist of all time! Simple Minds will always be one of my favorite bands of all time!!!
In a different league. Musically and poetically it's by far their greatest song. The NGD album version is over-produced imo, and live it can be clunky. This is perfection.
Charles Burchill is to Jim Kerr what Keith Richard is to Mick Jagger ,,a genius band guitarist, always dancing in and out with hooks and riffs that create the Simple Minds identity,, fantastic player.
My husband and I have been fans since the beginning of simple minds, I was lucky enough to meet Jim many years ago when he was at his recording studio in Scotland and someone had crashed his car and he needed a car ASAP and that's when I hired him a car for the weekend, he is a gem of a gut soooo down to earth and took time out to speak to me on collecting and returning the car. We can't wait to see him and the band at the Ovo in Glasgow in March.
Cherisse's beautiful smiling face shows she's having the time of her life she's an incredible drummer, what a band the minds are ......... truly epic! 🥰
When my brother arrived home with this album in 1982 we stayed listening to it for hours, every time I hear it I remember that moment and of him who is no longer here.
desole paix a son ame et as toi merci vue en 1980 au captaine video paris un des 1 concert de simple mind un des milleurs groupes des annees 80 merci a toi la france vas mal bye
Simple Minds were not my favourite band in high school, but a few years ago, I rediscovered them, still active, still lively, still innovative, and I've decided that they must be one of the most righteous and transcendent bands of the 80s, so now I follow them with renewed enthusiasm. 🏴
Oh my, I was so young back then. And I loved it as much as I do today. It‘s great to see the old guys mix up with young talents. What a remarkable band. ❤❤❤
My absolutely favourite Simple Minds song. I used to play this over and over again. Reminds me of so many great times, and hearing this song at night with the volume up, especially on long car journeys was the best feeling ever. I still get the same feeling now! I have seen them many times over the years, from the small venues to the stadium yours. Epic band, never disappointed.❤
Well said! So many of their greatest tracks (especially the earlier ones) are entirely dependent on his understated brilliance. And when he was performing with Mick MacNeil they were so fluid and in synch that you could barely pick out who was playing what part!
This band has accompanied me for decades and has never disappointed me. I was able to listen to them and see them live for years...Simple Minds has never disappointed me
Sehr schöner Song von den genialen Simple Minds und ein wunderschönes Video aus der Kirche dieser Abtei, es herrscht ein wunderbarer Raumklang dort; macht Riesenspaß es anzusehen und vor allem zu hören ... !!! 😮😮😮😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Another Charlie performance of his utter masterful dominance of subtle, beautiful rythmns and lead, the sum of which is way more powerful than so many who stand there thrashing out the same old tired chords. Massively underated guitarist.
I remember listening to Live in the City of Light (1987) on my great Aiwa walkman with reverse mode while riding the tram to school in Amsterdam. Great times.
Damn I love this new music... ok... I love the old Simple Minds too... and Charlie's awesome guitar... and I love the new drummer... and Jim... and the fresh etherial keyboard sound... and Ged... and they whole damn Simple Minds thang!
Amazing atmosphere that only SM can create... listening to their music in the early hours of the morning it's almost a trance of good memories and nostalgia
I was in the Royal Air Force up in Lossiemouth in Scotland when I first heard you play The Waterfront on the radio in the early 80’s. Loved you ever since.
@@anthonydevitt3206She has zero finesse compared to Mel. All I see is wasted motion. Mel had awesome technique. People commenting have zero clue on what makes a great drummer
fantastic! A timeless classic, that whole album is just an experience that is unique to each person that hears it and they are all taken to a different place. Thank you Simple Minds!
One of the few bands that can play live and sound as good as though it's recorded
Unfortunately I have to disagree. I absolutely love this album, but I was very disappointed when I saw them live.
@@NOOne-im5vg can't comment really as not seen live maybe vocals not as they used to be when they were younger but still a great band
Best '80 voice today is Mick Hucknall and after Tony Hadley very close
It’s not simple minds anymore is Kerr/Burchill with session musicians Forbes, Gaynor and McNeil haven’t been in the band for years.
I learned today you will be guests star of Amadeus at Arena Suzuki 2023 in the magical Arena of Verona!!Is this true news? Wich evening will you be there, so I'll go immediately to get the ticket!!.
the girl on drums is amazing
This is new wave. This is glory. This is 80's at the top. How I love this masterpiece. Simple Mind is iconic
Absolutely 👍
Yes you nailed it!
new wave / Pop , yes
Right!!!!❤❤❤❤
Charlie Burchill is such a great underrated guitarist! One of my fave guitarist of all time! Simple Minds will always be one of my favorite bands of all time!!!
Yeah. Great atmospheric sound!
Word
He's a legend !
Yeah well said. His sound live is so good!
Agreed. He has some of the most timeless (like in SSIS) melancholic melodies that were ever created.
The album of this song, the name is New gold dream, from 1982, is amazing . 😊
I was in highschool when Gold Dream came out and still have the vinyl version . 💪💙
I still have it on cassette!
Best album ever Made
Have the original vinal, what an album
I was 16 back then , now 40 years ago just incredible this remains a timeless masterpiece
Man, drummer Cherisse’s smile and enthusiasm just make this song soar.
My favorite of simple minds👍
They sound the same forty years later such a great group love them the best.❤
In my opinion the best song Simple Minds have ever made....
In a different league. Musically and poetically it's by far their greatest song. The NGD album version is over-produced imo, and live it can be clunky. This is perfection.
yes it is !
And they've done some
and "Alive and kicking"
And 81,82,83,84
The years pass by like the wind , but Jim and Charlie still seem timeless like this song. Thank you for your music.
My favorite Simple minds track ever and the drummer is brilliant
I prefer mel than cherisse on drums really!!!
You may have never seen Mel Gaynor on the set even if she's brilliant.
I was playing to simple minds tunes in the eighties and Mel is a great player
Just got herself a British Drum Co kit apparently....
The young lady on the drums is clearly enjoying the jam
00:35 Song !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Masterpiece !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
magic.....
Timeless greatness !!
I'm so grateful Jim Kerr's vocals are still great! Thank you so much.
Charles Burchill is to Jim Kerr what Keith Richard is to Mick Jagger ,,a genius band guitarist, always dancing in and out with hooks and riffs that create the Simple Minds identity,, fantastic player.
What little Steve is to Bruce Springsteen
Pedazo guitarrista...en el top teen de todos los tiempos
He has always been so underrated.
Drummer is killing it ! What a great song, long live Simple Minds !
I've been listening to them for 35 years and it's always a great emotion!
We steen
We saw them in Amsterdam last april so good
The sound of me feeling young again . Thank you Simple Minds.
In 1983 this was huge.
I was there with you
Brilliant after 40 years. Outstanding and the drummer is mesmerizing.
Der Drummer ist absolute Klasse 🥰
Wow this song. This song was a life preserver to me as a 15 yo in 1983. Literally made me keep going.
I remember tripping to this lol
Agree.....i was 16 yo in the 1983👍
Was 15 too
Cette chanson est tout simplement magique ! 🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝❤️🔊❤🔊❤🔊🔊❤️💯❤️
Simple minds for ever! 40 years later... goosebumps
Have been following all my life now 63yrs old, the music never changes, love it!!, and the drummer was like she was born to do this,
The whole of "New Gold Dream" album is a gem... Masterly produced. Superb compositions.
The most beautiful album of all time, innoubliable, sacred and religious
One of the most beautiful songs of the 80’s ! 👏💪👌👍🏆
👍👍👍
👍👍👍
The new members have given the band a new lease of life. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
U2 watches this and they get so jealous they wish they had half this Talent
@@Undercoverbrotherfromanother Let's not be silly now. Both are great bands
@@gavincollins9376 Let's Get Serious, U2 has not made any relevant music since 1987. Fact!
totally agree.
Drummer is a show pony nowhere near as good as Mel Gaynor.
The Drummer is amazing!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤ só saudade
I get goose bumps every time I listen to Simple Minds, reminds me of my late little brother Charlie ❤
My husband and I have been fans since the beginning of simple minds, I was lucky enough to meet Jim many years ago when he was at his recording studio in Scotland and someone had crashed his car and he needed a car ASAP and that's when I hired him a car for the weekend, he is a gem of a gut soooo down to earth and took time out to speak to me on collecting and returning the car.
We can't wait to see him and the band at the Ovo in Glasgow in March.
Cracking version with the most enthusiastic drummer ever....well done
Un peu trop enthousiaste, même...
Georgous looking girl but very average drummer.
No, technically mel gaynor was a far superior drummer. Simple as
The drummer is having best time!
Such a beautiful song. They have a sound that is unique and captures emotion like no other.
Where have all the years gone 🤦♂Listening to Simple Minds now ..i Drift off back in the day
❤
This drummer could light up the cathedral on her own with her smile and performance.
Cherisse's beautiful smiling face shows she's having the time of her life she's an incredible drummer, what a band the minds are ......... truly epic! 🥰
Absolutely she is fantastic,.,they have adapted and changed ,.,.,still legends
Absolute Master Peace.
When my brother arrived home with this album in 1982 we stayed listening to it for hours, every time I hear it I remember that moment and of him who is no longer here.
I had exactly the same. Top 5 albums ever
desole paix a son ame et as toi merci vue en 1980 au captaine video paris un des 1 concert de simple mind un des milleurs groupes des annees 80 merci a toi la france vas mal bye
THEIR best album
Beautiful memories ..❤
The drummer is brilliant. Love her.
If someone said to me ‘why do you love simple minds so much?’, I’d just show them this, brilliant 👏🏻👏🏻
Don't forget Book of Brilliant things too
Indeed
Meravigliosa
That drummer puts a big SMILE on my face ! Fabulous ... 🇬🇧
A Masterpiece ...all Brilliant ❤
Love the drums in this song and she did a super job
Simple Minds were not my favourite band in high school, but a few years ago, I rediscovered them, still active, still lively, still innovative, and I've decided that they must be one of the most righteous and transcendent bands of the 80s, so now I follow them with renewed enthusiasm. 🏴
I agree in some ways, but Depeche Mode is...
💯
Maybe the most underrated band of all time? Absolutely brilliant. Saw them 11 years ago and was blown away.
Oh my, I was so young back then. And I loved it as much as I do today. It‘s great to see the old guys mix up with young talents. What a remarkable band. ❤❤❤
Probably the best song ever written in our universe. Thank you. I think I listened to it a million times since 82.
Charlie is so gifted and innovative love his interactive creativeness❤
The drummer, she’s knock out. Plays fantastically with the looks to match, BRAVO 👏 Still love Jim.
I still got chills hearing this brilliant song after all these years! Such a beautiful masterpiece!
One of the best bands from the 1980s.
God I love this band! Their sound hasn’t changed a bit!! They still sound amazing!👌😎👉♥️🙏👍
My absolutely favourite Simple Minds song. I used to play this over and over again.

I have seen them many times over the years, from the small venues to the stadium yours. Epic band, never disappointed.❤
Brings back great memories of times when fantastic music was played. Simple minds is such a treat for the ears and the drummer is just top notch.
My favorite song, as a 1964 boy, this hypnotized me in 82 and to this day. Thank you Simple Minds.
Monsieur Burchill is way too underrated. He litterally constructs the vibe, that's a thing.
amazing guitarist
What’s his rating??
What do you mean, underrated? Charlie is the musical genius driving Simple Mind. Everybody knows that.
Well said! So many of their greatest tracks (especially the earlier ones) are entirely dependent on his understated brilliance. And when he was performing with Mick MacNeil they were so fluid and in synch that you could barely pick out who was playing what part!
This band has accompanied me for decades and has never disappointed me. I was able to listen to them and see them live for years...Simple Minds has never disappointed me
That was kick ass! Glad to have them back, and I can add to my collection! I'm almost 60 and they have been one of my favorites from the beginning!
Brilliant. New Gold Dream is one of my all time 10 albums, they did this song justice live.
Probably one the best sounding albums ever
Followed these guys all my life getting back to their best
Simple Minds is such a good band, no matter the decade they deliver brilliant performances.
Be 16 again ...danced so many times on that tune..loved this band ..still at the top ❤
New Gold Dream - *_best album ever._*
Sehr schöner Song von den genialen Simple Minds und ein wunderschönes Video aus der Kirche dieser Abtei, es herrscht ein wunderbarer Raumklang dort; macht Riesenspaß es anzusehen und vor allem zu hören ... !!! 😮😮😮😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I just can’t express how much I love this Band and this song. Forever Simple Minds. One badass drummer ❤
Brilliant band
WOW!...WHAT A BEAUTIFUL PLACE TO BE CREATIVE...MASSIVE TINGLESS...BLISS EXPLOSION! 💖💖💖
Beautiful building in Paisley a few feet from the band are the graves of Scottish kings n queens , they must be rocking under their stone slabs.
Such a great band performance, stunning place, beautiful smiling awesome riddim drummer lady, thank you for the joy!!!!
This is one of the songs, wish i can turn back to the first listening....so amazing.
41 years later...I'm still excited to see & hear SM!
Sounds as good as it did 40 years ago. Cherisse always a joy to watch whoever she plays with
Charlie makes the guitar tell a story 🎸 ….. sound as good as when I saw them on the NGD tour in Newcastle early 80’s
This band is absolutely amazing! The music and sound is always bang on! And the younger members sound like they have been with the band forever!!
Another Charlie performance of his utter masterful dominance of subtle, beautiful rythmns and lead, the sum of which is way more powerful than so many who stand there thrashing out the same old tired chords. Massively underated guitarist.
Para mim é a musica mais linda da banda ...
Como não amar a baterista ❤❤❤.
Jim's voice is incredible .. I've been a fan since the 80s and he always sounds so amazing ❤
Me too, I think his voice has got even better with age.
A timeless classic and will always be so.
Great song from my all time favorite album.Thimeless sound
Thats a masterpiece
Accompagnateci sempre con la Vostra musica fantastica ..dagli anni 80....senza fine....
I remember listening to Live in the City of Light (1987) on my great Aiwa walkman with reverse mode while riding the tram to school in Amsterdam. Great times.
Damn I love this new music... ok... I love the old Simple Minds too... and Charlie's awesome guitar... and I love the new drummer... and Jim... and the fresh etherial keyboard sound... and Ged... and they whole damn Simple Minds thang!
Amazing atmosphere that only SM can create... listening to their music in the early hours of the morning it's almost a trance of good memories and nostalgia
Around for decades and never ever disappoint. They are sublime. Fantastic guys and gals.
It is great hearing Jim's Gaelic accent!
Seen these guys live so many times across the country and Euro over the last 4 decades, never disappoint.
I was in the Royal Air Force up in Lossiemouth in Scotland when I first heard you play The Waterfront on the radio in the early 80’s. Loved you ever since.
It sounds like the 80's but with more experience. That guitar took me back to that glorious decade. Sharp sound and the drummer Wowwww
drummer steals the show. and what a venue.
É a melhor banda do rock pop ! So do Brasil e do os parabéns a Escória por ter uma banda de alto nível! Valeu Simple Minds!!!!!
Beautiful, as it's been through all these years. ❤
(Can I just say, your drummer is amazing. Excellent choice!)
Indeed... she rocks.... the drums are so important to the faithful tempo of this great track
Love the drummer's enthusiasm.
Brilliant 🥁
Loved Mel better though as a 🥁 er
@@anthonydevitt3206She has zero finesse compared to Mel. All I see is wasted motion. Mel had awesome technique. People commenting have zero clue on what makes a great drummer
Many, many years ago was lucky enough to hear and see Simple Minds in Toronto's Masonic temple before they became a huge thing, so talented.
fantastic! A timeless classic, that whole album is just an experience that is unique to each person that hears it and they are all taken to a different place. Thank you Simple Minds!
das muss so 82/83 gewesen sein, als das zum ersten mal gehört habe. Noch heute läuft mir ein Schauer den Rücken runter , einfach geil ...
Love it that Cherisse is always smiling
Agree, and Charlie as well! You really get the vibe that these guys just love what they do.
What a fantastic drummer
She is great , but sadly mixed out to a sertain extend.
She plays wayyyyyy more than we hear. 😔
My favourite song of theirs!! Saw them live Melbourne Australia in 1984. They blew my mind!!!!
Genial. Schlagzeugerrin... Der hammer.
How I miss the 80s... BTW the drummer enthusiasm and joy is infectious
Loving the drummer’s enthusiasm
