First time I've heard this one. I liked their Street Fighting Years cd. This one isn't as good as the songs on that one but it's still good.

Saw these guys on tour with the Pretenders when Chrissie was married to Jim Kerr. Good stuff!

I agree.. except for the part about being pretentious and sucky. Always enjoyed their music. |

Some of my favorite opening lines ever: "Summer's gone, winter's in your eyes. I can feel the thunderstorms inside..."

Trotting this up top, because "Welcome to the Boomtown" is such a great old song and really would fit after this one! Good catch, superflyLD! |

Man, it's been a long time since I've heard this one! I love Simple Minds...   |

A guilty pleasure of mine. Pop doesn't have to be sloppy or crap and this was a surprisingly tight and polished band.

These guys have a new album - Graffiti Soul - that's actually getting decent reviews across the pond. Will wonders never cease?  |

I bought this album on the strength of this song (and some of the more notable tracks on it)... never looked back and never regretted it once. Oh, and if I may... us Scots sure can bang out some awesome tracks! (I'm feeling surprisingly native just now)  |
