Waterboys - Whole of the Moon, Glastonbury 2007

[skinnefjall]

I wish I was there...

[MsAnnestube]

I wish they had a video recording of Glastonbury 1986! I was there too and it was a first-time mind blowing experience with the Waterboys music filling the air magically.....and there must of been about 80,000 people out on the farm field....just lovely the Glastonbury experience. thankyou to all responsible for that!

[SuzLa1]

Is there a proper video of them at Glastonbury?

[lennybhoy100]

Legend....

[paulisapringle]

check him out doing this at a school assembly on an old piano and a guy on piccolo, cool as.

its BuffOO post

[AibaYokaze]

I once told someone this song told the differnces between optimism and pessimism, how one person who tthinks they were so wise never really saw "the whole of the moon" that came with imagination and dreams, thus never really lived....was I right, or just my take on the song....?

[mrmonkeyisland1]

I was there! Was at Glasto that year! Shame the people I was with were too stupid to apprectate the music

[JVOCQC]

Contact PRS and book me a room please.

[rtmnmk]

The man looks EXACTLY like as he was over 20 years ago

[AibaYokaze]

@rtmnmk He does! How'd he do it?

[SuperStephen39]

[lladsbid]

he looks just like he did in the 80s, there'sgot to be a painting of mike scott somewhere that's really badly aged

[kxseventy3]

[ptpop]

This song chokes me up too. A friend introduced me to it.

[ttraynor1]

I fancy myself a pretty "tough guy"... and this song 'bout makes me cry. Similiar to Paul Westerberg in capturing that something that connects.

[coderedex]

[rjwpositivity]

Great song. He looks like Richard Ashcroft on a treadmill.

[pactis11]

this is such a funny thing to say!!!

[gourdonboy]

A great Scot. Pure genius.

[macmaghnusa]

I saw them blow the crowd away at glastonbury in 1989. sweltering weather, scrumpy & loads of 'weird folk' like the mutoid waste company.

what a scene. this bring back great memories. thanks for sharing!!

[clasperman]

Rank near? I'm still thinking rank above

[rudakai]

Great 80's song in that ranks near the top of a great decade of music, Mike Scott still gets it done!!!

[ellenfar]

Its nice to see mike jigging around onstage without a guitar, it makes a pleasant change. He's a beautiful man.

[kiwidude39]

agreed x

[fjdepablo]

Proximo, domingo 6 enero en el Festival Actual en Logroño.

[Squeaky1423]

PLEASE come back to California! Save us from the shite on the radio!!!!!!

[ellisrose]

@Squeaky1423 I saw them in Boston in 2007. They were so good.

[haljup]

I saw theese guys in Berlin when I was there.

A great preformance. Everyone was older than us though. I am 18.

[inyector35]

es uno de mis canciones favoritas, volver a ver a "the waterboys" en vivo me trajo muchos recuerdos de los 80's...exelente viedeo!!!

[RoMMeL516]

Brilliant!!! This save me from the daily trash of R&Bs and RAP music on radio.

[AdultBoyJunior]

I like the twirl! Don't like New York, tho.

[trustterry11]

Great song- reminds me of a souped up ronnie lane song - brill violin - star quality

[adhamiltonJR]

A truly great song! Thanks for posting this live version.

[johnied8509]

were is all the instaments were is the trumpet and sax player and the violin player I like the 1985 clip better than this one.

[pur69]

I wanted to say "Please COME to Geneva!" Found out the other day that they are!!! 21st October!!! Ah cannae wait!! Saw them 3 times way back in the late 80s in Glasgow, Scotland!!! I'm delirious tonight!!

[whothought]

Please come back to los angeles

[melefont]

Mike, please get back behind the piano for this one. And please forget the twirl for FB. Oh, and please come back to New York.
