It comes as a shock to me that I haven't posted this week's vid before, because it's one of my favorite songs of the '80s and, maddeningly, one that a lot of people don't seem to remember despite how popular it was back in 1985. Turn your speakers up to 11, go tell 'em Scotland's free, and immerse yourself in the epic fabulousness of Simple Minds' "Alive and Kicking." Don't you forget about this song.

I also thought Jim Kerr looked like a mildly retarded person who liked his mum's eyeliner too much.
Yeah, I'm THAT guy.
You need to go boy band style next week :)
Another of my favorites of theirs was "See The Light," from 1991 or so.
I'm really surprised that a lot of people don't know or remember it though...I thought it was a pretty titanic hit.
