May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
First time I ever heard this was earlier in the year when Iggy Pop played it on his radio show. It was so beautiful, I cried. One of the most beautiful pieces of music I’d heard in a long time (minus some Simple Minds songs, obvs.). I really do need La Dusseldorf in my life!
Simple Minds performing See The Lights and Don’t You (Forget About Me) on the Arsenio Hall Show in 1991. Jim, with an open shirt and nice scissor kick during the “Don’t You” performance – which is actually quite short and punchy (I like it! Have heard worse versions of it!). All good!

My new “must have”. Def. going to buy this at some point :-))
Interesting gear, Jim! Lol. It was the mid 80s, I suppose. Those shoulder pads though! Ooof! Lol
Hello Everybody, and welcome back to the Jim Kerr Dance Academy. Finding it a bit crowded on the dancefloor, or just trying to guard yourself from unwanted attention from the opposite (or even same) sex? Well, here at the Jim Kerr Dance Academy, we don’t condone violence – but old “Jimmy Panda Eyes” himself has the…
The second one from the top is my fave. Jimmy *smiling* Panda Eyes! Lol. He just looks like he’s having ssoooo much fun. Seriously. He’s having a ball! I know!! I’m crazy…
Heaven help me – he’s playing with the mic cord AGAIN!!! I want to be Jim Kerr’s mic cord!!! Lol. And those panda eyes?!!! Ooof!
More “Jimmy Panda Eyes”.
Jimmy Panda Eyes sequence 😉 Simple Minds performing Love Song. It’s labelled “Top of The Tops” this video – but it CAN’T be TOTP – their first appearance on that is in 1982 performing Promised You A Miracle. Where it actually *is* from, I am none the wiser on. I just know it isn’t TOTP.
Jimmy Panda Eyes again (I hope he doesn’t hate me for calling him Jimmy – it just works with the “panda eyes” phrase better. Lol).
