In Trance As Mission
For just one moment in time
I hear the holy back beat
Events and casual affairs
Just what is moving on
And what is going on
In dream a dream a
Courage of dreams
In trance as mission
Trans-american
Moving on
For just one moment in time
I want to walk where it is
Sustain a stature in life
Here comes a new type of light
Just what is going on
What is moving on
Dream a dream a
Trance as you dream
In trance as mssion
Trans-american
Just what is going on
What is moving on
For just one moment in time
Just one moment in time
Dream a dream a
Courage of dreams
In trance as mission
Trans-american
Something crashing into my life
Something crashing against white rocks
No calm to my hand
Here comes my hand
City up on my mind
What is going on
You've got to move on
Dream a dream a
Courage of dreams
In trance as mission
Trans-american
Living lives out of dust
Dream a dream a
Living lives
Walk on in light
I want to walk
My hands are grabbing at air
I want to walk
Dream a dream a
Courage of dreams
In trance as mission
In trance in trance
Trans-american
Stand by the statue in fog
Events and casual affairs
I want to walk
Heat of the day
Heat of the day....

Fire MonkeyThank you for this. I have been unable to play my extensive vinyl collection for the past 20 years, including the handful of old and excellent (pre-US fame) Simple Minds albums. Really love this track. xx
Phil CThis bass is badass. End of story.
anthony fubelliFantastic music.
Boquet BillFirst song of my first concert. Derek began alone on stage and then... 40 years later still so stratosferic
Gordon MurrayFantastic track. Sums up 80s music perfectly.
Jens JakobssonThe bass line is from Grendel by Marillion. :)
peskypesky1I bought this album when it came out and I loved it. I was just a teenager in San Antonio, TX, enthralled with English bands of the time. Great memories of listening...

ravosavoI grew up in Laramie, Wyoming. Dick Cheney's Wyoming, 1970s- 1980s. We would take the bus to Denver every couple of months and go to a mystical vinyl store: Wax Trax. There we found Simple Minds, Ultravox, New Order and Gary Numan (among others). We played this in the middle of the Wyoming woods. And I listen to this, or some early Simple Minds at least once a week. I always will.
PDSOne the first very first Bass Lines I HAD to learn many year's ago.
