Thank you, my friend CW5 Jack Cardwell for sharing the music video of Simple Minds performing their 1980's hit song "Don't You (Forget About Me)"
I well remember listening to this song while i was stationed in Germany in the early 1980's and saw Simple Minds perform it long ago :-)

"Don't You (Forget About Me)" written by Keith Forsey, Steve W. Schiff
Lyrics
"Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ohhh...

Won't you come see about me?
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby
Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving me everything inside and out and
Love's strange so real in the dark
Think of the tender things that we were working on
Slow change may pull us apart
When the light gets into your heart, baby

Don't you forget about me
Don't don't don't don't
Don't you forget about me

Will you stand above me?
Look my way, never love me
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down
Will you recognise me?
Call my name or walk on by
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down, down

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ohhhh...

Don't you try to pretend
It's my feeling we'll win in the end
I won't harm you or touch your defenses
Vanity and security

Don't you forget about me
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby
Going to take you apart
I'll put us back together at heart, baby

Don't you forget about me
Don't don't don't don't
Don't you forget about me

As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
When you walk away
Oh will you walk away?
Will you walk on by?
Come on, call my name
Will you call my name?

I say:
La la la..."

You are very welcome, my friend PO3 Lynn Spalding . I try to find the lyrics for every song I respond to. Many are public record and some have not been released.
