Happy Anniversary New Gold Dream

Posted on September 13, 2017October 2, 2023 By Priptona No Comments on Happy Anniversary New Gold Dream

35 years old today. Gordon Machray of Simple Minds International Facebook fan page asked us fans – apart from the title track, what was our standout and why?

Well, I was quick in response and then it was too succinct a response not to share here. So…here goes!

“That really is an EVIL question. King Is White for the politics. Hunter And The Hunted for the ambiguous tryst. Colours Fly for the fairytale. Big Sleep for the melancholy. SSIS for the romance. PYAM for the pop. SUTLY for the shine and sky. And Glittering Prize for the dream that goes with the NEW GOLD DREAM.”

So there you have it!
