Catch up here: www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p05vzhww About to listen to it myself 😀

Can't wait to see you at the Barrowlands...We're coming from Florida to see the show!

Sense of Discovery 👍🏻😍🎶🎹🎤🥁🎸 Thanks for another great new song! t's getting unbearably waiting for the album 😱😊

Wow. ❤ 'Sense of Discovery' on first listen! Can't quite describe the feeling it gives me but it's everything I love about SM. Just listened to the interview in my phone - worth it just to hear your beautiful accents!! 🤗 Keep up the great work guys. Will be adding this album to my collection as soon as it's released & hope you'll tour Aus again soon x

Just finished listening the broadcast. Sense of Discovery is now my fave after listening once. Maybe cos of the A&K vibe in it....dunno. Anyways... luvvvv this song!x www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b09msd5t#play

This third track sounds really good. Can’t wait for the whole album

The songs from this album are superb , spine tingling 👍👍👍. As was Big music , infact since “Cry” everything has been good and gradually got better , impressed 😊.

Enjoyed the interview. 'Sense of Discovery' is reminiscent of the Cocteau Twins, Marc Almond, Big Country and 'Deep Blue Sea' and could be a good single, Jim. Bring it all on with Charlie's 'rock god guitar solo' live.... 🙂

Charlie Burchill is one of the true greats of contemporary music ......incredible musician.....sense of discovery is one of the musical masterpieces up there with street fighting years and hunter and the hunted

just heard the interview,very good,loved the story about Barrowland and the baker light stars lol.Sense of discovery sounds awsome,really like the vocals from,i presume sarah brown,has an element of alive and kicking.Keep up the good work guy's.I'm buzzing to see you in manchester and coventry,and a few more 🙂

Absolutely love 'Sense of Discovery'. These concerts are going to be awesome!

Happy Anniversary. Been a fan for almost 30 of them. Looking forward to seeing you in Taunton 🙂

Epic tune! Couldnt expect anything better!! Wow! All 3-tracks heard so far are amazing! Cant wait for the album! Thank you SM! 🦅🇮🇹

Its was a wonderful track loved it the new album cant come quick enough 👍

Prip digs it. I’m just calling myself that from now on. Lol But then like the word “murder”...I’ll miss all those rolling R’s...we can’t have that.

Briliant cant wait for new album dont for get about Belfast great interview all the best taking to to friends to day dont see that much we all talked about croke park in 86 great Times thanks simple minds

Great track and great interview guys! Tried to get a ticket for Manchester but was sold out quickly so am gutted. Hope you come back soon!

^_^ it is quite more lovely to see you (finally) than to hear you also because my comprehension in Scottish idiom should really be improved alas -_- ... I lose all the jokes LOL .. but ok besides the words the most important are the songs! Sense of discovery was beautiful before and you made it bloom like a rose now. <3

Quality for a quality radio show

Please, Simple Minds Official guys, accept the invite from Fredrik Skavlan Talkshow is one of the best interviews I ever have seen and you have a very interesting story to tell (and some steaming new music, i.e. "Magic", to play at the end of the program)!

I listened in on the way home from work , the new music sounds really good , looking forward now to the Manchester gig coming up , gotta say that 40 years of albums and tours ain't too bad using Charlie's trial and error approach ,

Yes the second I heard the first music note I was already in a serene bliss and then the words are Devine, really special beautiful EXCELLANT SONG EXCELLANT I love it so so much. 🎻 Great picture too.😊🌷

Steve Lamacq is one of the best interviewers on the wireless. Brings the best out of his guests and Sense of Discovery...WOW!

Loved the Radio Show tonight.. Great interview.. Amazing new song.. Can't wait for the barrowlands gig.. Going to be brilliant... 👍

Great track. Plenty of life in the old dog(s) yet. A proper punch the air moment when i heard that. Loved it.

One of my fav venues. Just wasn't to be, this tour around.

Looking forward to Barrowlands but still no tickets yet through early sale on official site. Ticketmaster sent a friends out pre Xmas. Anyone else or should I be worried?

Look really a beautiful place!! So happy to be there 🤩 Good luck for your interview, I will be listening, however I will understand the half....if I’m lucky 😉

I'll be listening and I am very excited to hear the song I know I'm going to love it. That venue looks like a lot of fun looks really nice. 😊😎

Tickets arrived for Manchester today. Woot! The Roundhouse looks awesome. Never seen a gig there before. Gonna be fab! Bring it on! 🙂

Great to listen to you both, Jim and Charlie on radio 6, both sound in great form, and new tunes sound awesome too. 😊

Was there for the 5x5 gig. Excellent venue. Very atmospheric

The Roundhouse is such a great venue . See you there on the iTunes & 5x5 Tour looking forward to the 15th & hearing the new album 👌

Just listened to the 6 music interview. Enjoyed very much plus Sense of Discovery is brilliant.

So looking forward to this gig Katy Taylor

3x brilliant new tracks! Admittedly I'm biased but this album already sounds epic.

Always wanted to see SM there, ever since discovering some 5x5 Live videos. And hoping to tune in on Steve Lamacq's show in a while, too. 🙂

iconic venue....been lucky too see SM at Royal Albert Hall, Maine road Manchester Ritz and Edinburgh castle....looking forward to Barras...but the Roundhouse looks a great venue! ➕🖤⭐

A great place to see the band - and a great sounding track on-air (!!!) play on Simple MInds!

Tempted but will wait for the complete album and listen to it with good quality and in its entirety ... old school! Can’t wait! 🙂

I'm going to see you at the Roundhouse on the 15th February. Can't wait for that!

Is there a list of North American Tour Dates listed anywhere? Hoping Montreal makes the list!

Looking forward to the show in Copenhagen. I'll be the one in front singing loud...but way of of tune 😂😂😂😂

Looking forward to the new album and hope to see you in Gothenburg Sweden soon ! 🎶💖👍

Can't wait now!! Bridget Barton Let me see your hands ❤️

When are you coming to the USA? Chicago would be a great place to start 👍🏻

I was there some years ago , it’s a nice place!!!!

On Steve Lamar just after 6 o clock.

My favourite venue, can't wait.

See you there. Not long now...
