Simple Minds – I travel 1980 (Instrumental) Cities, buildings falling down Ideal homes falling down These pictures I see on the wall Timeless leaders stand so tall Assassin in a hit and run Asia steals a new born son Evacuees and refugees Presidents and monarchies Travel round I travel round Decadence and pleasure towns Tragedies, luxuries, statues, parks and galleries Travel round I travel round Decadence and pleasure towns (Instrumental) Europe has a language problem Talk, talk, talk, talk, talking on In central europe Men are marching Marching on and marching on Love songs playing in the restaurants Airport playing bi some lo lo lo lo .. Travel round I travel round Decadence and pleasure towns Tragedies,luxuries,statues,parks and galleries Travel round I travel round Decadence and pleasure towns (Instrumental) Travel round I travel round Decadence and pleasure towns Tragedies,luxuries,statues,parks and galleries (Instrumental) Europe has a language problem And in central europe Men are marching
LISTEN TO THIS WHEN YR SMASHED……
Amazing music, they can play, Derek Forbes= legend
Gonna see them tonight,strange idea!
@mayangod1isback…. guess who? I am back and play this song 24 hours a day. SIMPLE MINDS kick ASS. Excuse me but I get so excited when I hear this band.
Umm .. .this is not an instrumental
If this 1980, is this a performance in a Scandinavian country? All present glued on seats…typical. Time shift..If this performance was done in 1981 in Birmingham, they would get pre teens bobbing left right in the new romantic way hailing this song as the number 1 song but close competition to Duran Duran Planet Earth
Was that “Chelsea Girl” Patsy Kensit turning around to look at the camera at 2:20 ?
Perhaps just my imagination
like could be better i like the beeat
this blows my mind every time!
classic!
fuckin’ classic i miss those days so much……
Jim Kerr looks so hot in this video xxxx
I wish they’d performed this track at the concert I attended in Australia when I was 16 back in 1986.Alas mostly what they performed was from that crappy “Once Upon A Time”era,Love Song was the earliest track from their repertoire which they performed.Well I guess it wasn’t it wasn’t the post punk era any more.
I really miss the 80′s music and the 80′s in general!
Awesome Eighties sound!
@mfactor88
Much better than U2.
@bobbbb1963
I agree Oasis are great,but never respected their fans.
Great song,Simple Minds are a great band,they were just as good as U2,and I disagree with those who say Once Upon A Time is when the band went downhill.That album was really brilliant.I love the song All The Things She Said.
i travel. miles ahead of its time.
@coolal19 I agree. Sparkle in the rain was a great album, maybe the best.
I often listen to “The kick inside” when i am upset.
This looks a bit later than 1980.
@coolal19 Hi coolal, I agree with you. I couldn’t believe my ears what they did later.
So not Simple Minds.
