Simple Minds: Dont You Forget About Me - Duration: 6:43. The pop punk band turns up just about everything in their super-charged version of “Don’t You.” Wailing guitars, strong vocals, and an abundance of drumming transform the soft-spoken original into an upbeat, head-bang-worthy track. Nach dem Erfolg von Sparkle in the Rain bot Forsey den Song danach den Simple Minds an, die ihn nach anfänglichem Zögern im Studio einspielten. Juni 2020 um 20:56 Uhr bearbeitet.

Young singer/songwriter Nicole Mason does justice to her fellow Scottish musicians by serving up a chill and slightly trippy take on “Don’t You.” The Glasgow-based 21-year-old’s soft singing and echoing electric guitar-work are simple trappings to the light drumbeat upholding the track. Echoing vocals, synthy background melodies, and a light beat intermingling with electronic keyboard chords turned this track into a surefire hit back in the day and ensured that it would be a beloved classic now, more than 25 years since its release. In den deutschen Charts war die Single vom 13. Really enjoyed Life of Agony’s version even if it didn’t add a whole lot. “Don’t You” defined more than just The Breakfast Club – it defined the ’80s.
