On this day, October 21, 1985, Simple Minds released their seventh album Once Upon a Time. The album was a commercial success, reaching #10 on the Billboard charts and further cementing the band’s global popularity. Featuring hits like “Alive and Kicking” and “Sanctify Yourself,” Once Upon a Time blended powerful anthems with the band’s signature new wave sound, making it one of the defining albums of their career.
