Simple Minds - Don't You (Forget About Me)
40 years ago this week, "Everything She Wants" by #Wham! reached the top spot, replacing "Don't You (Forget About Me)" by #SimpleMinds after one week. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8xt5BGegj8 #1980s #MusicHistory #MusicVideo
40 years ago this week, "Don't You (Forget About Me)" by #SimpleMinds reached the top spot, replacing "Crazy For You" by #Madonna after 1 week. This song was written for "The Breakfast Club" and shopped around to lots of acts before Simple Minds finally agreed to record it. One of the other acts was Billy Idol, who later recorded his own version. It's pretty good! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdqoNKCCt7A #1980s #MusicHistory #MusicVideo

On this day in 2013, #raymanzarek of The Doors died at the age of 74.
“Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house, we're born
Into this world, we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan
Riders on the storm”

An ’80s classic was at #1 40 years ago.
“Don't you try and pretend
It's my feeling we'll win in the end
I won't harm you or touch your defenses
Vanity and security”

"Don't You (Forget About Me)" is a song by the Scottish rock band #SimpleMinds, released as a single in 1985. It was written and composed by the record producer #KeithForsey and the guitarist Steve Schiff for the film #TheBreakfastClub (1985). Simple Minds initially declined to record it, preferring to record their own material, but accepted after several other acts also declined. "#DontYouForgetAboutMe" became a breakout hit for Simple Minds, an iconic song.

A new live album released in a few weeks. Still sounds phenomenal and still kicking it. #SimpleMinds
The Barrowland Park Album Pathway. Created by Artist Jim Lambe in 2014 to celebrate the role that the Barrowland Ballroom has played in Glasgow's musical history. Each 'album' on the path is dedicated to a gig by a specific act at the Barrowlands, ranging from Bob Dylan to Primal Scream, and including many iconic home-grown bands such as Simple Minds.

On a completely different tack: today I heard the song “Cry” by Simple Minds for the first time, and the similarity between it and “Indestructible” by Canadian artist Matthew Good is uncanny. I checked and “Cry” was released in 2002; “Indestructible” came out in 1999.
I didn’t see Matt listed in the songwriting credits for “Cry”.
If anyone here knows Matt you might want to tell him he has a pretty good infringement lawsuit here.
"Belfast child" - Simple Minds
As we said, #TOTP producer Paul Ciani wanted to play the entire top 40 in 28 minutes, so there are some brutal edits. Here, he leaves the song more instrumental than Jim Kerr.
Not the band's finest six minutes, and - with "Biko" on the flip - it's not even the strongest song on the single.
Happy 40th anniversary to Simple Minds single, “Don’t You (Forget About Me)”. Released in the US this week in 1985 (later the week of April 8, 1985 in the UK). #SimpleMinds #DontYouFirgetAboutMe #TheBreakfastClub

𝗦𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘀 - 𝗦𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗹𝗲 𝗜𝗻 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝗶𝗻 - 𝟭𝟵𝟴𝟰
Il y a 41 ans sortait le 6e album de 𝗦𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘀.
Après 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗚𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗗𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺 qui est caractérisé par un son atmosphérique, onirique, sophistiqué, subtil... 𝗦𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗹𝗲 𝗜𝗻 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝗶𝗻 marque un tournant pour le groupe.
Un style plus direct et énergique, plus agressif et dynamique.
L'album, produit par Steve Lillywhite, s'oriente vers un style rock de stade (big music).
