This is slap in the face for Simple Minds! "Alive and kicking" is a far superior song, but there's something about "Word up" that makes it really unique and 80s. Also, "psychological romance" gets me every time 😂 On an unrelated note, I discussed "Lady in red" with some friends of mine, and they all believe is a great song! They're thinking about opening a substack account just to vote for Chris fucking deBurgh!

Sadly, when we were there two years ago they had not reopened post-covid yet. I was very disappointed.

Link to the 40-Year-Old Virgin scene. During recording, my tired, tired brain could not pull Steve Carell’s name out of the ether.

Appreciate the reasoned analysis followed immediately by the baseball profanity! 😂

I also love those other songs!
