Todays choice is a band currently on their farewell tour, which concludes shortly before christmas in the O2 World Arena in London after the leader of the band announced last year “I’ve kind of decided that the 25 years is going to be enough”
The band originated from the 1976 Sex Pistols gig at the Lesser Free Trade Hall in Manchester, England. A Manchester art student was one of the many young music fans present, along with original members of the bands Joy Division, The Smiths and Buzzcocks. The first incarnation of the band was a punk group called The Frantic Elevators, which existed for 7 years, with limited releases on local labels, but split in 1984 with only limited local attention and critical acclaim for their final single, “Holding Back the Years”. In 1986, the band re-recorded “Holding Back the Years”, in an interesting soul ballad style, and this time it was a major hit, peaking at #1 in Ireland, #2 in Great Britain, #3 in the Netherlands, #20 in Italy and later #1 in the United States. The song established them as a household name, and remains one of the band’s most recognized works. In 1987 their second album was released, from which todays selection is taken.
I’ve been a fool, talking to myself and no one else
(so what’s the big deal? I do that all the time – its the only way I can be sure of getting an intelligent conversation)
This group has been featured once before, with the above-named song

this is maybe someday by one of my favorite bands, simply red. mick hucknall has such a wonderful voice, and I have seen him several times. a great showman.
I never had the pleasure of seeing him live Alan, looks like I never will either …. But then again, does a Farewell Tour really mean goodbye these days? I’m not too sure
Good answer, WTG, but no 5 points ….

This is Simply Red doing Maybe Someday
It is indeed Scott, from Men and Women. In my humble opinion this album is still his best… WTG!!

Today’s answer is Simply Red’s “Maybe Someday”
why is it when I think of him I think of Carrot top??
(Man what an ugly FemDude in your ML Welcome)
I think he/she drew on Mr. Nose with a sharpie
and uses too much eyeliner………….
LOLROFLMAO
sev
ps ….. I had NO Idea what the o2 world arena was so I looked it up
Ah Sev, if only you’d signed up on the website before answering, then you could have earned five incentive points for this answer ….. pity lol.
Mrs Ugly by the way (in case your eyesite might be fading) is not real. Only Michael Jackson had a nose like that in real life ….
O2 by the way is the name oif almost all big stadiums (or is it stadia?) in Europe these days… even our color line arena in Hamburg is being renamed…

Maybe Someday
I’ve been a fool, talking to myself and no-one else
I play it cool, so cool that no-one ever
understands me
Maybe one day someone will come
Now! Now
I didn’t do the
things I was supposed to do
You didn’t move, you used me and I used you too
Maybe
one day someone will com
Maybe one day someone will come
Why it’s killing you, is a
reason for yourself and no-one else
I couldn’t move, you used it and it used you too
Maybe one day someone will come
Maybe one day someone will come
Yes Phiz! Men and Women is in my opinion Simply Red’s best moment too. Thanks for all the goodies today. But maybe you should think about earning points for your answers? All coming soon
no need to add a graphic to my comment though, you said it all…
{{{{{{{Dave}}}}}}}}
Maybe Someday by Simply Red. I still maintain that Holding Back The Years is one of the best songs ever.

Mike (MSchoBlue)
Its certainly a good one Mike, no doubt about that. WTG!!
