A SIMPLE SINGLE

Hot on the heels of their triumphant success in America, Simple Minds release a new single on April 28th just as the band commence a 44 date tour there, which promises to be a sellout.

The single is All The Things She Said (VS 860) from their soon to be platinum album, Once Upon A Time. As a special bonus the single will be backed by a live version of their worldwide hit, Don't You (Forget About Me) recorded live at Rotterdam's Ahoy Stadium last December. Don't You (Forget About Me) was one of the highlights of the band's set and had audiences singing along with lead singer Jim Kerr throughtout Britain and Europe.

The 12" format contains an extended version of the A side b/w Don't You (Forget About Me), PLUS a special U.S. remix of another Simple Minds classic, Promised You A Miracle.

The single has already gone top 10 in the U.K. and is racing up the American charts.

Accompanying the single is an extraordinary technical video clip, using repititive images of Jim Kerr and Charlie Burchill.

Once Upon A Time has now turned around and gone back up the charts in both America and the U.K., well into the top ten.

Simple Minds will be steaming into Australia for an extensive tour in Sept/Oct. Watch this space for details.
