When my life has had its troubles, I would always scream this song. I grew up in the 80s and at 50 .....I still SCREAM IT. I even went to the waterfall in the N.Y. mountains were the video was made. Amazing....
35 years, later and "Once Upon A Time" is awesome/timeless/classic and where have the 5 years, gone. Back, to the Futuristic Breakfast Table, i reckon.
LOS AÑOS 80 SIN DUDA, PASARAN A LA HISTORIA. CENTENARES DE GRUPOS SE CREARON CON EXITOS NUMEROS UNO COMO ESTE... Y DECADAS DESPUES, POCOS SOBREVIVIERON...EL PORQUE??? ME NIEGO A CREER QUE EL REGGAETON SEA MEJOR QUE ESTA MUSICA. POR SIEMPRE SIMPLE MINDS Y EN GENERAL TODO LOS 80 PRINCIPALMENTE😊😊😊😊
Good afternoon, from Portugal! That´s exactly what we need today to be happy: have simple minds, always alive never stop kicking.... Thank you Guys for being there since 1984....
... and also, finally makes the Matrix super cool... Neo didn't really stand a chance... and you walk up, and you stand up... and you walk away, still you walk away...... I love you simple minds. Always have, always will. Wish I could light my lighter once for your concert.
non vedo lora che ritornano in italia x passare una serata meravigliosa come sabato scorso 21 novembre grandissimi simple minds by luigi monteleone giffone reggio calabria
Tuvieron que disfrutar muchísimo de este concierto, con filarmónica y vocalistas. Toda una joya. Enhorabuena Jim. Sigues siendo el mejor. Saludos desde Valencia. Spain.
Club DJ in the 80s and this is the only song I can hear over and over again and never tire of. My all-time favorite song! I played it so much when my daughter was a toddler she used to ask for it by name, except she asked for "I Like Your Chicken", lol
This band could have been a one hit wonder after Don't You forget about Me, ...but then they weren't. Underrated doesn't mean they will ever be forgotten. Gorgeous Music.
Great comments. Here's what made the 80's so wonderful. The music was an elaborate production. (much as the Big Band Era) Nothing before or since has matched the effort that was put into these songs. They painted a picture that has stayed with us into the new century. A great time in music history !!!
Fuckity fuck! Just found this on a Lazy Sunday Afternoon. I remember seeing SM in a real shitty little pub , The Mars Bar in central Glasgow back in the early 80's but seen them once when they were Johnny & The Abusers too in The Doune Castle pub in South Glasgow at the tail end of Punk around 1978-9. Just finished reading & listening to Bruce Springsteen 's autobiography in print & audiobook (READ/LISTEN!) Simple Minds, U2 and Bruce Springsteen have so much in common. Mostly early great friends forming bands, with a deep love of everything Rock & Roll. 3 great lead singers growing old respectably. Keep burning it guys! Just say YES Scotland, Freedom!
Love the 80's and Simple Minds , never get sick of hearing this song , one mistake at 1.48 sec into song mic is down and he continues to sing , not sure what going on there !

"Once upon a time... not too long ago... there was damn good music..."
Anyone agree?
Yes my friend they just don’t seem to make them like this anymore
Agree
Absolutely. No bull shit just live music ❤
Absolutely!

*Who's here in Aug 2024*
Blessings u all. Peace and love for the entire world
This song kept me and my unborn daughter alive in a hard time in the 80's. Xo
❤
Charles Burchill is a very underrated guitarist. He doesn't try to stand out, which makes him very noticable in a positive light.
There are no rock songs tha cant be improved live by an orchestra! Fantastic!!
Real musicians, real music. Blown away! Love how the backup is a freaking orchestra. What a band.
som da melhor qualidade........
Never get tired of listening to this song. An 80's classic.
When my life has had its troubles, I would always scream this song. I grew up in the 80s and at 50 .....I still SCREAM IT.
I even went to the waterfall in the N.Y. mountains were the video was made. Amazing....
25 years after the song is released and it still sounds awesome...timeless..a true classic.
