don't you (forget about me): information

  • Don't You (Forget About Me) was reissued as part of the celebrations surrounding Virgin Records' 40th anniversary dubbed 40 Years Of Disruptions.

  • A series of very limited edition 7" picture discs were issued for various Virgin artists.

  • The Simple Minds reissue was for Don't You (Forget About Me). However, the original limited edition release was of a shaped 7" disc cut from an original 12" master - this 7" was simply a reproduction of the original logo on a 7" disc.

  • It featured the same tracks as the original 7".

  • The disc was pressed on heavy-duty vinyl and housed in a clear plastic sleeve with a sticker. Unlike the original, the sticker simply carried the label copy - there was no indication that this release was a limited edition nor how many copies were pressed.

  • Once Upon A Time was also promoted as part of the anniversary celebrations but this was simply the 2002 remaster.

  • Also, as part of the 40 Years Of Disruptions, Simple Minds performed a showcase event at Koko in London.
