About the Song
"Don't You (Forget About Me)" is a song written by Keith Forsey and Steve Schiff for the soundtrack to the film The Breakfast Club and performed by Simple Minds. The songwriters were disco producer Keith Forsey (who won an Oscar for Flashdance... What a Feeling) and Steve Schiff (guitarist and songwriter from the Nina Hagen band). The lyrics recall the theme of the movie of people who were strangers before an encounter, revealing their inner selves to each other and becoming intimates.

About the Artist
Keith Forsey (born on 2 January 1948 in London, England) is an British soundtrack composer, drummer, songwriter and record producer. As drummer and long-time associate of producer Giorgio Moroder, Forsey can be heard on several Donna Summer albums until 1981. He co-wrote several songs on the albums Bad Girls, The Wanderer and I'm a Rainbow. Forsey also formed a dance band called TRAX with Moroder's co-producer Pete Bellotte and produced two dance albums. Forsey's powerful drum sound was the mainstay of many Moroder productions during the 1970s including Sparks seminal electronic album "Number One In Heaven", "Get On The Funk Train" by Munich Machine (Moroder/Bellotte's in-house band), as well as various other studio/disco acts based in Munich at this time such as Boney M. He also played on Moroder's early 70s international breakthrough novelty Moog synthesizer hit "Son Of My Father", along with an as yet undiscovered Donna Summer. Forsey was also well-known as the producer for Billy Idol. Forsey began working with Idol in the '70s when he was lead singer for UK Punk band Generation X and stayed with him into his solo career, producing the albums.

Music sheets - what is all about? Back in the 19th century, songs in the United States were popularized by musicians through music sheets.
