May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Photos and video from George Square and by the GoMA and The Duke also. The Christmas tree was on display in Queen Street Station. Poor Queen St – she ain’t no Central, but she’s looks a little prettier right now…
I wish I was too frigging proud to cry! Then again, maybe not. Being “too proud to cry” sounds like the most dire emotional detachment to me…
Only one song feels appropriate today… ”Forgive me, love” – I’m not too proud to cry. Roy Orbison springs to mind…
Lyric of the day Song: See The Lights Album: Real Life Year of release: 1991 Written by: Kerr/Burchill
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!

(via priptona-weird) Oh, he still had some great hair then. *sigh*
(via priptona-weird) Come on up close, Jim 😉
(via priptona-weird) I’m not sure I could have made this one any more perfect if I tried (but I might…just to see!) What do you think, Jodie? Is it what you were after?
(via priptona-weird) Seriously – how have I not made any gifs from this video before? Thank you so much Jodie Perkins for the kick up the bum I needed on this!! Phwoar – Jim!!
