I interviewed Jim Kerr this week, lead singer from the band Simple Minds. We covered many topics, including his new solo album, “Lost Boy AKA Jim Kerr”.

But I think my favorite story was the one he told about how the band came to record the biggest song of their career, “Don’t You Forget About Me” which was featured in the movie, “The Breakfast Club.”

I’m writing a feature about Jim for Spinner.com – but thought you might enjoy hearing him tell me this anecdote.  Here is the story.
