I like how he refuses to be drawn into the Edinburgh/Glasgow thing. All round a very wise man. We need more of his kind in our world.

Ha I can't claim it's a complete coincidence as I only commented because names matched. But yes I'm not the OP.

Saw them at The Usher Hall last week and it was fantastic. His voice is tremendous and l was transported back to when l was in my late twentys. Then l said The Whole of the Moon was my funeral song. My kids are now 41 and 36 and have known this since for ever. Best song ever ❤😅

What a touching thing that Mike and his father are pals after such a long "pause". Saw the Waterboys play several times in the early-mid 80's. Fascinating to see this chat. I hope that Mike and his dear Mum have spent many days together since this was recorded.🙏🤗😍

I'm so sorry he feels so bad about the 80s. If it wasn't for the 80s, we wouldn't have had the opportunity to hear Mike Scott's lyrics and music. I'm 63, I'm thinking of taking up the guitar, just so I can play a meaningful to me John Prine song, but if I get to the point where I can play that song, I want to tackle a couple of the Waterboys songs. I feel I want to try to get into those emotions expressed as well. Thank you Mike!

That caught my eye. You can teach an old dog new tricks! My son has inspired me to pick up guitar again . I was never any good but this time I can just enjoy it for what it is.....something to amuse myself with. The other thing is the stuff you can get now...check out lag guitars and their hyvibe model. Good luck!

@@allosaurusfragilis7782 , thanks for the encouragement. I need to remind myself, I don't have all the "time" to do things I seem to think I do, between work, spouse, house, etc. I am keeping my goals to one song at a time, when I feel I can make the time to play. I have a teacher lined up, and an old Silvertone guitar I picked up that looks cool, so, it will happen.

That's a load of rubbish.. we use it as a shortcut to explain cultural differences - a bit lazy, I'll admit, and probably not comprehensible to those outside this island - but it actually has nothing to do with religion or superiority.. it's like Greeks v Romans or introvert/ extrovert.

@YewrMan Жыл бұрын

Scott is Scottish. The band have had various memebers through the years. Anto Thistlewaite English. Steve Wickham Irish. Karl Wallinger Welsh. The band, not including all of that 4, at one stage lived in Spiddal in Connemara where they recorded some of Fisherman's Blues. For me This is the Sea, a classic album, is by a long way their greatest work. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/m691YM-fl9ypdmg.html

@GEDSKEPTICMEDIA yes I remember about something I read, I think in their website I'm not sure...there was said about maybe 60 musicians passed in and out of the band, wonderful.
