Haven't seen Roland on screen in about 30 years... it's always a surprise to see someone who you once admired and have them in your memory as a young looking person. We will all age but this music and their 80s videos will be forever timeless and always in my mind.

It's especially nice to see a great singer with high pitched register sing just as good as they used to. High pitched vocalists sadly deteriorate more quickly, but Roland really is a GIFT!

I was privileged to bump into Roland Gift when working on Baron st, Islington in 2002. He was totally down to earth, and engaged in a convo with me without knowing me. I was surprised to say the least. Great talented millionaire, humble too, rare!

[revolutionday]

Well, that was EXACTLY what I was looking for, right there. :-)

What a fantastic surprise to see Bow Wow Wow, Republica and Adam Ant's drummer Dave Barbarossa playing drums here. He's incredible!

[grimmblade]

Haha SWEET! Glad to see they are still performing!

[patriciotroncoso]

all the times...wiht...blues base....

Roland looks like a mixture between Will Smith and Tom Hanks

[habsom]

Voice sounds richer now and just as good. Rick Asley came back after many years and sounds great now producing some of his best work to date.

Muy buena canción. Recomiendo buscar la original.

Can’t believe I am seeing this just now. Research time or can somebody just tell me FYC lives

[phylliswright]

Around world oldschool 2020 disagree boybye we are not washed up still got it

[machoiberico]

what music genre is the piano part that starts at 2:02?

[rebeccahollis]

Does anyone think the backing singer can't stop watching him

[lifetobelived]

His voice is a bit huskier now with age but more soulful now. Not bad for 2017

[paulcollins]

Has Roland charged religion? Isn't that Pakistani clothing or something like? Either way respect to the man who made the 80s better. Legendry voice, keep going man!!!

[mikewoodson]

I know he’s not making the money he use to, but damn Roland, hem that shirt...🤣

[thomaslang]

I don't get this guys, they've lowered themselves playing at picnics, yet they would SELL OUT virtually every casino in North America....fucking messed up. People who had 1 shitty hit in the 80's get paid by casinos who don't deserve it, but these guys are nowhere to be found...Pour Management or some conscience decision on their party. They could literally put there finger on any map, where there's a casino and they would BEG them to play at the venue for a shit ton of cash....
