1 position on the American Billboard Charts.

That apart I must admit that I also like the notion of having sung on a record that once sat at the No. Our gratitude will hopefully be evident when we walk on at the MGM Grand in Vegas this coming Sunday. I am however eternally grateful to be associated with a record that has given so much pleasure to so many. But I donвЂ™t have one to begin with! (For your info, Alive And Kicking вЂ“ the follow up to DonвЂ™t You вЂ“ reached No. It is not my favourite Minds track either. They were of course entitled to their opinion. But it also alienated some of our until then loyal followers who had perceived Simple Minds as, a cool Euro thing only, and certainly not something to be splattered all over MTV.

In any case, the success of that song/movie fast-tracked Simple Minds onto a level of success that may or may not already have been coming our way. Plenty of others have claimed that they wanted them too, but I donвЂ™t believe a word of it.

The Breakfast Club movie had recently finished shooting and they were adamant that they wanted Simple Minds to record the main song for the soundtrack вЂ“ DonвЂ™t You (Forget About Me). Lady Luck certainly happened our way when producer Keith Forsey and movie director, John Hughes came banging on our door in November вЂ™84. And so to this week, where we are soon to be making our way to the Nevada Desert, and above all to that mecca of gambling and many other ritzy pastimes вЂ“ Las Vegas.
