The Simple Minds' hit "Don't You (Forget about Me)" was actually written for Billy Idol. He finally recorded the single for his greatest hits record.
Simple Minds front man Jim Kerr was married at one point to Chrissie Hynde of the Pretenders, who at another point was involved with Ray Davies of the Kinks. The Pretenders had an early hit with a cover of the Kinks' "Stop Your Sobbing".
