The Verona concert is one of their greatest gig. A band at its top.
23rd July 1989, Leeds Roundhay Park. My first proper gig. Stood near the front near Charlie. Blew me away and a memory I will cherish for my whole life.
I was there too......great days to be young!!!
I was there too, brilliant gig, just disappointed they didn't play New Gold Dream, my all time favourite song and it always will be.
i was there too red hot day support bands were awesome too
Saw them at Wembley Stadium & Birmingham NEC on this tour - absolutely fantastic live band
I was there.
Without doubt SM are the greatest live band I’ve seen. Their lyrics, the musicality and despite the band members who’ve come & gone throughout the years , it never gets in the way of the way the songs come across. Proper music !
The keyboard/guitar/violin
interplay from 6,25 to 7,20 is total goosebumps
Love this song... absolutely great performance...jim voice sounds flawless........best line up Everrr!!!❤❤
How do you pick up the threads of an old life ?
How do you go on when in your heart you begin to understand there is no going back ?
There are things that time cannot mend, some hurts that go too deep that have taken old
... eighties: youth....hope....pure music...
Could we take a moment and recognise the amazing talent of Charlie Burchill. He is up there with the best!
One of the most underrated guitarists ever.
Epic band, the way Mel Gaynor hits his drums... mindblowing...
Saw them in 89 in Munich. It was a great concert right from the start to the end. Awesome end to a fabulous decade for music.
Da ist nichts hinzuzufügen!
I'm enjoying this because my generation will never throw anything like this out. You'll never get a band again starting out from scratch and 12 years later they are playing Stadiums. The pay off after all the years of hard work and graft. This is epic but they knew what ride they were on and they catered for it perfectly come this time. The ambition is quite simply totally inspiring. This is what being in a band is all about.
James Barton wow! Brilliantly noted!100% agree!
Well noted
Thanks James, I believe you've nailed the sentiment square on!
Simple y sensillamente silple minds es simply mindis alfun grupo ochentero imcomparable fuera de lugar
I watch this everyday at least once since years and I cry and I am 58 years old
without this my day is wasted
Great song! Brilliant album! I have the vinyl and CD.... Charlie's guitar is simply epic. All time classic.
The power of this title is exceptional, from 6 minutes the magic of the melody is limitless, thank you for what it allows you to feel.
Verona 1989...Italy,... I was there !!!
me to....lol
Lucky basterds
So did I
Siii
:O
I remember seeing this at the old Wembley Stadium, boy did it ever rain that day, got to the very front, too close to see everything though, you live and learn, that's when i also discovered Texas
Texas?
And Hothouse Flowers if I remember correctly?
Was there myself too. Absolutely pissed down for England.
Spine chilling performance from the best live act in the world mesmerising from when the curtain crashes down and the Minds start playing fantastic!!!.
+waldorf3 Watch "Alive in Rotterdam". Jim comes bounding onto the stage in the first notes of waterfront, and it's full throttle from there on... a truly amazing performance. This performance starts with a big crash and then the're all asleep behind thier ridiculous sunglasses. Bands have good times and bad times. This was a bad time. Watch thier 1982 Newcastle CIty Hall gig... this is so boring in comparison. I should know, I was there at Wembley for this. I've saw them in the early nineties in a tiny hall in LA and they were amazing, way better than this crap. Saw them again on the 5x5 tour and it was almost up to the early 80s standards. But this is dirge - pretentious, preachy, dirge. :(
Brilliant stuff.. I remember when this was released Listened to this track the most from the album... Glasgow dark winters cold and wet, but we had this... I wouldnt have it any other way... Superb.
I'm half scottish/half Italian...& I KNOW just what you mean! Cheers!!
Scottish and Italian? Good combo
Sort of "fire and ice", as the bass player of Spinal Tap would say.....
Bang on fella :)
The best years of my life :-)
Verona....saw this show in RDS Dublin 1989.....my first live show.....epic times
This is just the most amazing piece of rock music ever made. There’s nothing else like it, simple minds are just the most amazing band ever. Can you imagine if simple minds as they were then at the height of the game being around now the internet would just blow up.
These new acts could learn a lot from them on how to perform and be humble and how to play instruments.
Totally agree. Thanks
Great song! Brilliant composition. This live version sounds even better than the studio version in the album.
Imagine playing that set for Britains got talent today! Would put all that cac to shame!
Charlie ... too much!! most underated guitarist of all time!!
0:19: The sheet comes down and the REAL concert begins. LOVE it!😁
Best concert I ever saw, the curtain crashing down just blew me away . Best live band ever!
@@melissaheneghan5939 What year? 1989?
Simple Minds, The Cure, Depeche Mode en U2 the best live bands ever
+peter de vos You got serious very serious tastes
peter de vos Queen.
New Order, Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band too & Green Day
ah much more are great as you think
How are Depeche Mode obscure? There's nothing obscure about them, true they are not drums, bass and guitar... fairly experimental but hardly obscure!
Here comes the hurricane!!!! I love this song, this album and all of SM. 💚
The music of my subconscious.....................................
Amazing! All of them. I love the way Charlie always smiles when he plays guitar 💖
This is music!! I cannot prevent from laughing at listening donkey hip-hop or house now. I saw them in 1989 in Italy. Wonderful concert. Great musicians!!!!!!
Just incredible... Lump in throat music, even more so when you know why this song was written. 🎶♥️✌️
this is my favorite band that I never seen live. great music Jim, Charlie and Mel. Simple Minds is still awesome!
Saw these at Wembley 26th August 1989. I loved this album and still do.
+Nick Holt Can you describe your feelings on this Wembley live 1989 ?? Please !! :)
+Thomas Edouard I was at this gig. Gunn were mediocure, Texas were amazing and totallly rocked the crowd, then simple minds came on at a laxadasial pace and kinda went downhill from there. You could kinda tell they were exhausted, and Mick was gettting depressed (he left soon after this), they had replaced Derek Forbes with yet another forgettable crappy bassist, and Mel couldn't hit the drums any harder, he was just thrashing away at them 4 to the floor, never allowing for any dynamics. The whole game was over. But they had such a good ride.
Bradonomous.... Sorry but that is utter posh . I seen them about 10 different gigs over the course of this tour and they were fantastic every time . The bass player was Malcolm Foster from the Pretenders ,so hardly " just another crappy bassist"
Could have just been an off day, or maybe wembley was too large, or maybe my expectations were too high. I saw them in Birmingham on the X5 tour and they were amazing. :)
best band of the 80s ive seen them 4 times best time gateshead 1991 real life tour my fav band and still going strong alive and kicking
One of the best song of all time ❤
On there highest point 😊
One best opening songs ever 👍
Me too
I'm so in love with this wonderful band...i love them, they are the greatest live band ever
Sarut mana! Nu esti singura! Am crescut cu aceasta muzica si formatie! Pasionat de muzica fiind, avand si sansa in acele vremuri, ma refer la perioada inainte de 1989 (sunt convins ca intelegi ce vreau sa spun), sa am acces la muzica lor, visam sa ajung sa-i vad live! Visul mi s-a implinit dupa multi ani ... am plecat dupa ei la Helsinki si Berlin ... dupa care am avut sansa sa-i vad in Bucuresti! Mai are rost sa mai spun?

Graeme Mulcahy said it right a week ago: "timeless".
I'll never tire of listening to the S'Minds and that makes them legends in my book.
I love this song, i get goose bumps everytime i hear it.
My absolute love: SIMPLE❤MIИDS
Saw them in 89 in Heerenveen, great concert. Such beautifull music
Amazing track. Opens an amazing album. Great stuff.
what a beauty...what a power...
I want hear this song absolutely in Verona 2020, but with McNeil and Mel, it will be impossible, it would be very amazing. Let me see your hands 🙌. I'll be there 💕💯🇮🇹🇮🇹
the best song simple minds have ever done amazing .
Saw this show at Wembley Stadium, unforgettable!
RIP John😢
Mick please come back to simple minds
Simply best live band In the world.
Went to Verona three year when on holiday at lake Garda.....standing outside the venue of this fabulous gig gave me goosebumps....I can't imagine how amazing it must of been to be there....I saw SM two nights ago at the M and S (echo) arena as we all still call it in Liverpool and they were still note perfect.....long may it continue.....!!!!
simple minds the best,great
Best Simple Minds line up EVER
La puissance de ce titre est exceptionnelle , à partir de 6mn la magie de la mélodie est sans limites , merci pour ce qu' elle permet de ressentir .
Simple minds were magicians x
Magnifique, grandiose..... Un groupe que j’écoute depuis mes 15 ans, 1985, tout comme U2, Depeche Mode, INXS, the Cure, etc..... Et le fameux concert de Verona, je l’avais enregistré sur VHS. Mais je l’ai trop regardé et la cassette ne fonctionnait plus... Alors, revoir ce concert me donne des frissons.....
Once upon a time....
78 - 85 music my favourite period of their music but this is pretty good too. This is as "epic" as any "progressive rock" band ever was!
oh God the majesty!
Fucking brilliant
this is music
Grazie jim &company per le emozioni che mi avete regalato nei miei anni migliori, la vostra musica mu porta indietro nel tempo, anzi è senza tempi, ma rivivo quell'estate di tanti anni fa
Such great memories. Sadly didn’t get to Italy but was at the old Wembley stadium to see this tour. I went with some very special friends.. This was a great line up in my opinion and I remember when the curtain dropped and this song started I had goosebumps and tears in my eyes. A great band and great days
I just love this! It makes my heart happy 💜💜💜💜
same good use of words
me too
Absolute pleasure.... Awesome. Thank you Simple Minds. Regards from Poland.
This is an anthem! Greatest album I have ever had the privilege of owning.
Good old days 😊
You just don’t get music that lifts your spirits like this today
Who knew this was the beginning of the end? RIP SM
Stupid comment

amazing start to gig opener
Roundhay park Leeds...a magical day ☘️
I was their as well. The first time I saw simple minds live
Charlies guitar! He is so cute as well with that smile!
Enhances the soul! What a magnificent alignment of musical stars, thanks for such magic music. ❤🌟
I remember seeing Simple Minds at Meadowbank 1989 during this tour and they played this I think third or fourth track, an absolute smash of a track and so well played. Will never forget the hair on my neck standing on end during this1
Still class, timeless!
Saw em in cardiff at the old arms park 89 good days gone forever
Muito lindo esse show do Simple Minds. Amo essa cultura e essa banda
This is so DIVINE!!!!
This curtain's opening is epic... A grand and significant moment. How to remain indifferent ?
I love Simple Minds.. Seen them live here In Glasgow back in 2002-2003 when I was 22 or 23 and it blew me away.. Jim Kerr is an awesome front man and entertainer.. One of the best groups ever.. My god they were so good.. My brother says they sound like U2.. Lol.. I like U2 too and I get why he says that.. They have a similar sound but I love SM just a tad more because I love Jim Kerr and his high kicks and his on stage moves and presence.. He owns that stage when on it. x
Un de leur meilleur morceau , magistralement interprété , grandeur et maitrise , impressionnant , merci
Bellissima canzone
Bravi
Best live performance bar none
"Italia, come stai?!"
Oh...very well, thanks to you! Tomorrow I'll finally see you playing live in Rome!!! ^.^
Best line-up of SM.
Probably the best song of 1989
I love this song simple minds his great band in the world
Just love this as it's so powerful & expressive.
Thank you Simple Minds, I really needed you!
My heart belongs to simple minds....I can't get enough
I was there, !!!!!
For all three concerts.....
Tree night in my city verona with simple minds,Body 1972 from Verona
Canción dedicada a la memoria de Victor Jara. Que nunca se olvide!
E houve também One Tree Hill, do U2 sobre ele também, com a diferença de que o U2 cita seu nome na letra.
