@coolal19 Hi coolal, I agree with you. I couldn’t believe my ears what they did later.
So not Simple Minds.

The wheels came off after New Gold Dream. If they hadn’t sold out they could have done soooo much more. Big stadiums beconed.

I disagree. “Sparkle in the Rain” was a very creative continuation of New Gold Dreams, debuting at #1 in the UK charts. Aside from Waterfront, there are many other great compositions such as Book of Brilliant Things, White Hot Day, C Moon and the best cover of Lou Reed’s “Street Hassle” that I have ever heard. When “Once upon a time” was released, that’s when it all started to go wrong.

it is a shame most people think simple minds was a conventional group . i like their whole career but i think their beginnig was a good antidote for groups like sisters and mercy and bauhaus

It all went wrong after New Gold Dream – Waterfront was good but THAT album signalled the fall from critical acclaim into 80s commercial abyss. Unlike Bowie and many others Kerr et al are unable to reclaim any credibility because the change was so great and unlike Bowie they sold out before their credible work was allowed to become their signature – buig mistake, and quite tragic really as their ablums 2-5 are up there with the best.

loved to have been old enough to have heard it in clubs when it came out in 1980.
this band could take anyone on. unfortunately politics got in the way late 80s

@rawk72 they’d give their eye teeth now to have the spark they had then..the U2 years spoilt everything!

Still one of their best. Love the hair cuts. I used to have one just like it.

@DisappointerSisters – The funny thing about this comment is that the band apologised for this era of their music in the late 80′s early 90′s. I agree with you tho. After 1984 their music became worse and worse.
