I don't know what the song's about, or even really listened to the lyrics, but it's a CLASSIC!
Great music!

Masterpiece!

"Bye-bye, Shadowlands" - comes from C. S. Lewis. I find this a terrific meditation on the ultimate meaning of a life that has been reduced to the lowest of the low - which is vindicated and elevated by the Master. As with Grizabella in "Cats". It is very moving.

Oh god...I WAS at that Long Beach show...'84 or something. They blew me away. After the waterboys, U2 and the Alarm, I started looking at the world in a different way. I was that typical OC punk (TSOL, DKs, Decendents, DI, Vandals, Fear...you get it) getting into fights at the Orange Julius on the Penninsula in Newport Beach.

@Garfeimaoatthe1ring I was at that Long Beach show also - remember that version of "Sweet Thing"? Then I saw them at a club in Hollywood a few weeks after - they were great and Mike Scott was so cool to us. I started listening more to the Waterboys afterward, as the U2 show was toned down and just wasn't as intense as the War Tour and show in L.A. the year before.

I always interpreted this is an anthem to the Goddess. The Earth is her church. I still well-up with tears: In 1999, I was flying to Amsterdam from Montreal...early morning...listening to this on my walkman, watching the sun rise out the left side of the plane, and then running across to the right and the moon is lit-up, and the land is in darkness. It was one of life's perfect moments. ty for letting me share w/ u :)
