Simple Minds
"Don't You (Forget About Me)"
Released in 1985
Simple Minds is a rock band from Scotland led by Jim Kerr. They started making music in the 1970s, but became an international success with the release of "Don't You (Forget About Me)" which was in "The Breakfast Club" film.
In the 1980s, songs became extremely important to films - especially films by John Hughes. This track is among the first songs to come to my mind whenever I think of 80s films.
