This is legend. The fact that Derek Forbes asked Herbie Hancock if he’d like to hear their new music and he ended up playing the keyboard solo on this track. Awesome!
@@lawrenceomond7341it’s true. They were recording at the same studios. SM were struggling to get the bridge right. DF met HH between takes and was telling him this. HH took an interest, listened and then came up with the solo. That’s why it’s a bit more jazzy than most SM.
'Life moves so fast'.... it certainly does. I was a fifth former once, pouring over this album - the artwork, the production.. treasuring it like a sacred possession. And now I'm 57 and feel no different. I become choked up every time I hear it... It just cuts the core and yet lifts you up. Mind bindingly good, literally.
Beautiful, ethereal, evocative song....reminds me of hooking up with women in bars and clubs in the 80s...."see me as I figure in your late night plan"...."only with you life moves so fast"....."only with me first times can never lie".........."When you hear me screaming I'll be seeing through the eyes of love"....beautiful lyrics that slay my soul....young love is the most pure of all....based only on raw physical attraction....when you feel that intense mutual attraction with someone, time and the world disappear
Crystalline, perfect - a soul trip. Blows me away every time - unearthly and yet so painfully sensual simultaneously. Breaks my heart and revives it at the same time. Inexplicable. Like some kind of Japanese poem infused by western rock. Inexpressibly good. Could be the best of all....
This is my very best track from my best band and music. i am from Iraq writing from Baghdad. My kindest Regards to every member of this great band Simple Minds. They were singing beautiful music then. There will never be another band which will produce anything close.
Intramontabili Simple Minds... Sono a quota 55 e li seguo sin dai loro albori negli anni 80, che tempi, fenomenale repertorio, li ascoltavo in musicassette, ma questa insieme a Theme for Greats Cities, ritengo siano da brividi... Buon viaggio... Ottima versione Scottish MTV... Chapeau
already 40 years ago, this wondeful voice ( jim was at his top with this album ) , the harmony of the musicians, lovely melodies, etc... live move so fast.
Timeless! This track It's like a pendulum that travels through time, it's simply AMAZING! I have heard it hundreds of times and I never get tired of hearing it, I always find some new chord that makes it even more wonderful!
It's a shame that we are only able to experience the greatest era of our lives just once, Which I for one took for granted. I always was well rounded when it came to music even though hairbands pretty much ruled the world I was in, so back then to listen to these guys and this type of music was like being in the closet (no offense to anyone) As a man who is now in the process of figuring out what I am gonna do with the rest of my life (retirement) I reflect often on how time has passed so damn quickly. So glad I was a teen of the 80's. So sad that I can only live them in memories as that time slips away every day.
I feel blessed that the 1980’s were my teenage years. I can’t bring them back, but I can relive them through so many ways- my music, my cars and the films I watch
Einer meiner liebsten Songs, auch nach 42 Jahren…zeitlos schön, vielleicht auch mein letzter Song, wenn die Zeit gekommen ist …höher kann ich diesen Song nicht loben …Grüße aus Westfalen
L' univers musical fantastique de ce groupe écossais , une époque bénie pour la pop britannique : Silencers , OMD, Tears for fears , U2 (irlandais), Ultravox, mais aussi Eurythmics, Pretenders et tant d' autres...

A bass legend and a keys legend
Is that real or did you make that up?
@@lawrenceomond7341 That HH played on the track? He's on the credits

A keyboard solo that makes me fly and cry❤❤❤

The same and I’m 60…!
The same goes for me and I’m 60 too. I’ll never forget when New Gold Dream came out in September 1982 and all that happened then.
Did discover SimMi about that time to as nearly legally adult 🎉😊 they offen did help through rough times 🍀🌼☀
one of my most favourite songs ever. Life moves so fast......
Greatest band ever,definitely the 80s.Live,they were and still are fantastic.
Favourite song of my favourite album ever. This spiritual song, with in particular the synthesizer part in the end, makes my soul leave my body....

Fantastic track from a great album.
This is my very best track from my best band and music. i am from Iraq writing from Baghdad. My kindest Regards to every member of this great band Simple Minds. They were singing beautiful music then. There will never be another band which will produce anything close.
I listen to this song nearly every day masterpiece pure genius
This tune and so many others performed by Simple Minds are timeless, one of the greatest bands of the eighties.

Together with the song The Unforgettable Fire from U2 this is my favorite song of all times until now
It’s don’t get better than this....simple minds at there very best
Good morning. In fact Bono in a 1985 interview, said that U2 had been very inspired by Simple minds' New gold dream !!! Greetings from Italy
I agree 110%!

Beautiful words. I share your thoughts & sentiments more than words could ever say. I hope you find the best future possible sir
@@phil19852010 Thank you!
Never realised how good that era was when it was gone. Thanks for your words.
But thank God we still have the lp’s and cds and mp3s
I feel blessed that the 1980’s were my teenage years. I can’t bring them back, but I can relive them through so many ways- my music, my cars and the films I watch

Una leggenda di gruppo .....top
1965
Meravigliosa. Magica. Allora, oggi, sempre. ❤❤❤❤❤SM
Genius……hear this when my time comes as hopefully I float towards heaven😢
Otherworldly
oh my first time I heard this song was just last week! OMG what have been doing so far? this is a gem. It's never too late, is it?
IMO they got it right the first time around on NGD where the song builds to the keyboard solo late in the song. Putting it at the front takes away the anticipation of it. Also you can tell where parts have been added in because it doesn't flow as well as the original
Having said that, the original version would have to be one of the best songs SM wrote
Was thinking exactly the same! On this version the buildup you are refering to (mid section) is stronger though.
Superb Extend the ecstasy version.
What a track! How do you top this ?
Such a beautiful song this... Untouchable.
Awesome song 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🔝🔝🔝
Great job
Unica
❤❤❤
🤘🤘
Sparkle in the rain a great album
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yes,what a track,wish it was made mid seventies when I had a couple of acid summers😂
How did you find/ make this?
He did no make this. Herbie Hancock made this song. Supported by a few blokes from Schotland.
And been to Kyoto....it wasn't snowing 😏😉
🎉❤😊mega
opium...🙂🙂
Soooo faaaast
it doesn't sound like jim kerr singing, from time to time...
Commercials?????? Nooooooooooo way!
Tragic that Kerrs ego split the band … they were never as good again … why Jim why … 🤷
