Somehow I had tuned into the boy that I used to be, the passionate kid that I had left behind, and mysterious as that all was there was no denying how thrilled I was to be reconnecting with the energetic outlook and liberating values at the core of that distantly familiar character. Rapidly I then began considering what kind of songs could be created if I could immerse myself 'now' in engaging fully with that young ghost.

LOSTBOY AKA! JIM KERR is the result of that curiosity, and I am exhilarated by it. No mere dance with the past, thanks to the vision of co - writer and producer Jez Coad, much of these songs feel to me that they could be signals from tomorrow. It’s only a first step, but I can easily imagine taking this new relationship with LOSTBOY! AKA much further in parallel with the continuing great story of Simple Minds.
