- "Promised You a Miracle" is a 1982 song by Scottish band Simple Minds and was released as the first single from their fifth studio album New Gold Dream (81–82–83–84). It was the band's first chart hit in the UK, reaching #13 in the UK Singles Chart and charting for 11 weeks. Their previous nine UK singles yielded no Top 40 hits in that country although some had sold well in Scotland. It was the only song on the album that included Kenny Hyslop as the studio session drummer. Mike Ogletree and Mel Gaynor contributed for the other eight tracks. The song triggered a prolonged period of commercial success for the band, during which they yielded 21 original UK hit singles in a row, up to and including 1998's "Glitterball" from the album Neapolis. It also enabled them to make their debut on the British music television show Top of the Pops. The music video, directed by Steve Barron, features the band members playing amidst colour television imagery, interspersed with an uncredited female model passing through an airport X-ray and sunbathing. A live version from the album Live in the City of Light was released in 1987. The video was a simulated live performance filmed in London's east end. Directed by John Scarlett-Davis and produced by Nick Verden. (en)

Den utgavs 1982 som den första singeln från albumet New Gold Dream (81-82-83-84) och blev gruppens första framgång på brittiska singellistan där den nådde 13:e plats och låg elva veckor på listan. Den innebar också gruppens första framträdande i TV-programmet Top of the Pops. Singeln blev även en hit i Sverige där den nådde 17:e plats på Sverigetopplistan.

Sångaren Jim Kerr har betecknat Promised You a Miracle som gruppens första renodlade poplåt. Det är den enda av gruppens låtar där spelar trummor. En liveversion från albumet Live in the City of Light utgavs 1987. (sv)
