How did he ever get a drummer like Vinnie Colaiuta back in the 80's to play with him? It is like having Bill gate or Steve Job selling computers at a retail store. That certainly raised his reputation in the sheer musical level. I used to think he was nothing but a "one-hit wonder" artist. Now I listen very carefully of his music. Thanx for posting.

Hands down, one of my favorite all time videos of a live show, a great song to begin with, and then a hugely talented backing band. The icing and cherry on top of this cake is the surprise of just an awesome horn section, that easily elevates the music/song and video to an 11 as a highly enjoyable audio experience for the ears and mind.

Real horns were not something you heard much of in the '80s in pop-rock, and it was so refreshing. To hear it live with real horns is incredible - beats the hell out of the synthesized Live Aid performance. Proud to say that tho the song was not a significant hit here in the USA, it is without a doubt my favorite song of the entire 1980s. Fantastic bitter lyric set to a bright catchy tune - my favorite combo!

Brilliant. Wouldn't it be good to be able to sing with this band! I love the bass line - what a cool bunch of guys.
Can't get enough of this song, even after so many years. Also, the band really nails it. Timeless music.
Love Nik Kershaw... what a legend!👌👌👌
Awesome! One of my favorites and this powerformance was fab.
He definetly GOT it! As an real Nik's fan I dare to say that he's better now than then.. what a sound and vocal form!

This is a very underrated song. Always liked it.
Me encanta esta canción y los 80 fueron lo máximo y no se comparan con la música actual es mi humilde opinión

The early 80's was just the best time,great artists,great songs,great singers,they were difficult songs to sing ,shows how talented they all were,rock on the 80's .
I'm saying goodbye to a friend I can no longer be with....I sent her this.
This is a real musician. I always loved this beautiful song with magic trumpets instrumental. Wouldnt it be good....forever song
This song is absolutely a rock masterpiece gem of our time..
He still sounds as good as ever, Keep going Nik you're a legend
Really brilliant live performance. Excellent band backing up Nik….👍
I still blast this in my car in 2023. Love this song
This song is the song that got me through some very rough times in my life..... I felt like somebody finally understood my pain. Nik, I love you! When will you tour the US. We need you here dude.
It's rare when the live version lives up to, if not surpasses the studio cut... this is one of those times.
You are so right. I was living in a rat infested apartment when this song came out and it helped pull me thru. Fantastic sound and he looks sincere at his message. I will spread it on my KZread and Facebook account.
How did he ever get a drummer like Vinnie Colaiuta back in the 80's to play with him? It is like having Bill gate or Steve Job selling computers at a retail store. That certainly raised his reputation in the sheer musical level. I used to think he was nothing but a "one-hit wonder" artist. Now I listen very carefully of his music. Thanx for posting.
What an excellent performance!!! I always knew there was something special to Nik's writing when I was listening to his hits during the 80's. A great musician and songwriter who has got me feeling all nostalgic for my teens again.
One of the best songs of the eighties.All time favourite!
nick kershaw is extremely talented. His voice and band sound amazing, especially playing live in 2008.
When the horn section in the middle sets in it always gives me goosebumps

As good as it gets for a live performance from a past performer coming back. Loved it!
OMG! So so good to see Nik in action after so long and he's still got it. His music beats a lot of the recent rubbish from the last few years. Thanks you for posting!!
This is one of my all time favorite songs! It still makes me smile after all these years! This is also a top notch live performance!!
Nik hasn't missed a beat in all these years. Awesome.
I love this live performance, it's wat I imagined
He still sounds really good, which a lot more than i can say for some 80's musicians.

What a wonderful take on his own tune. And that Norwegian house band for whatever that show is are such impressive, all-around musicians - thank you SO much for posting this!
One of my favorite songs from the 80's.
He still sounds as fresh as back in the day, and it's still a tune to kill for. Marvellous!
Hands down, one of my favorite all time videos of a live show, a great song to begin with, and then a hugely talented backing band. The icing and cherry on top of this cake is the surprise of just an awesome horn section, that easily elevates the music/song and video to an 11 as a highly enjoyable audio experience for the ears and mind.
After 30 years not many singers can sound so close to the original studio version. Very good... you still great Nik
ベース、ギター、ドラム、声、全てが良くて癒される!今のクソみたいな音楽氷河期に、この曲に出会えて良かった。今の時代に昔の歌に勝る歌は殆ど無いだろう。今の時代の音楽は一過性。 昔の歌は聞く人の心を踊らせる魅力が沢山ある!プロモーションビデオのニックも最高です😮
Nik, one of the best of the 80's, still have it! I really like this song even when i was just 5 years old when it became a hit.
i got chills , great sound... one of my favorite songs ever!!! better in live
it's always fun to see 80's artists today (or, at least, fairly recently) and how different they look. i've always loved this song.
My daughter is 2 and she loves Nik Kershaw!
Best live performance I have heard. Better and cooler than 20 years ago.
This version and his performance from Live Aid are my two favorites of this song! Simply Awesome!!
Many years have gone by and I'm still loving this song.
loved this when i was a kid,still do at 63 ,wonderfull
God Bless NIK!!!! It's wouldn't be the 80's without NIK!!!!
The set design is very beautiful and is perfect for the song ... his voice and singing remains as amazing as it was many years ago (cry tears of joy its true) .. that 80s vibe is wonderful throughout ..
His voice has improved with age,he has a warmer tone, I occasionally do this track and wide boy,on my solon gigs,in my 80's set !!
Brilliant song stands the test of time with superb solo!
Quality is permanent. Thank you once again Nik for the joy you have brought to so many people for so many years. 'So Quiet' is still my favourite, closely followed by 'You Might'.

The Riddle!❤
this is so amazing I love Nik Kershaw He sounds just like he did in the 80s for me when I heard him the first time.
Just love this song.. I yearn for the 80s... What great years before the net and mobile phone scurge ...
Yes, the 80's was really great. Good times, good music and better people ...
A little masterpiece....... full of the atmophera of a time of magic and happyness... 🌟🎉🌟🎉🌟🎉🌟🎉
What a performance!!... so smooth and clear.
I´ll ever love that song. It´s nice to hear it live with full instrument section. The synth sounds very good...

13 Years in the future, this still rocks.
Well done Nick. Employed a real Horn section on this great composition. Live!!!! Amazing to see Artists using musicians live for once. Good on ya son.
Real horns were not something you heard much of in the '80s in pop-rock, and it was so refreshing. To hear it live with real horns is incredible - beats the hell out of the synthesized Live Aid performance. Proud to say that tho the song was not a significant hit here in the USA, it is without a doubt my favorite song of the entire 1980s. Fantastic bitter lyric set to a bright catchy tune - my favorite combo!
Great song and the lyrics will make the song live on forever.
Amazing he still has it!!😄
"GOTCHA" Nik sounds amazing & but the band is tight and perfection
Wow - impressive. This wasn't one of my favorite songs from the 80's, but it sounds fantastic here more than 20 years later!
Los 80, me encanta esta versión, viajo en el tiempo, a Dios J. Gracias, paso 63 años.
Fabulous sounding....Still holds up now...timeless !!!!!
Refreshing harmonies in a world full of 1-4-5.

It's a chord progression, for example in the key C that would be C (first) F (fourth) G (fifth)
Its so amazing. I think,I'm 15 years old again.💖
