    'I saw the rain dirty valley
    You saw Brigadoon'
    Brigadoon is a fictional Scottish village that only appears once evry hundred years. What hes saying is basically 'Im a bit rubbish, but youre great arent you?' The bang sound is the comet!

    The keyboard player, Karl Wallinger eventually left and started his own project called World Party, and it's worth checking out as well.

    I absolutely love the album this song is from , This Is The Sea. I've been lucky enough to see The Waterboys and have met Mike Scott. Had a 15min conversation with him about music & songwriting. Really nice & friendly guy. One of my favorite songwriters.

    This song remains one of my all time favourite songs, however many times I hear it. When it was first released in 1985 I used my tape recorder to record it from radio and I played it again, and again, and again. For me the lyrics have always meant that we all have our own views, lives, experiences, ideas ... that while one sees the crescent of the moon, another sees the whole of the moon and it doesn't make one better that the other.

    One of my favorite records since its release. Mike Scott was onto something with the creation of the Big Music - another good song I might add. Lyrics are complicated with this one. His struggle to see clearly, compared to someone he admired who seemingly had it all together. The price paid for experience can often be too much too soon for some who are loaded with talent, but maybe unable to keep their wits about them when their success starts to be realized - like the cautionary tale of certain young athletes, or musicians. And maybe the issue for the song's narrator was seeing the world through a dark lense - "I saw the rain dirty valley" while the other is more optimistic, seeing "Brigadoon" - an idealized realm of beauty and wonder, helping them achieve success more quickly. There are several other great tracks on the album - Don't Bang the Drum, The Pan Within..or even Trumpets. Don't just limit yourself to the popular single.

      aparently he was singing about Prince who was at the height of his fame during the mid eightees. Bob Dylan mentioned that the text was the best he had ever heard!

      No it’s not it’s written to no one. It’s written to highlight how much more there is in the world you don’t understand. The writer considered himself a young unknowing person in a complicated world. It’s only directed at someone to tell the story.

    Dunno how you wandered across this song, but it brought back memories! I loved this song! But, it sounded different a bit, I thought maybe it was a live version -- but no. Thanks for checking it out! I also have a couple suggestions from similar genres:
    Forever Young - by Alphaville
    Don't Go, or Only You - by Yaz AKA Yazoo
    Heaven, or Pretty in Pink - by the Psychedelic Furs
    Bring on the Dancing Horses, Lips Like Sugar, or Killing Moon - by Echo & the Bunnymen

      It is quasi-live. The band didn't want to just mime playing their instruments and lip-synching to the studio version, so the vocals and the violin are all live while the primary piano is pre-recorded.

    This song make the good example about one thing : There's no way 2000's pop music can beat the 80-90's in composition, mood and soul inside the song.
    Today musicians were to much depending on computer to make the tunes. They've synthesized almost every sound & tune they made with DAW and other programs.
    Yes they were fast & easy to composed, yes they were nice to heard......but much of them sounded so robotic and plain.
    No pop up background melody
    No sudden improve of vocals or instruments
    No Soul and Mood in every chain of notes
    Just sounded like automaton everyday alarm clock... Nice but easy to forget
    I really miss the old days music, when composers really composed the music from their heart.....not from CPU & Microchips

    Why did they replace "scimitars and stars" with "saddlebags and stars"? Was it a p.c. thing that you can't mention a middle eastern weapon? Only guessing

    Great to see someone encountering and enjoying this beautiful song for the first time. Weird though that the 'official' music video is a random live performance, and not the studio recording that was released into the charts that we all grew up listening to! Don't get me wrong, this version is great, but if you're looking for the 'original' recording, it's here: ua-cam.com/video/pu7AR0-FRro/v-deo.html

    The moon is a metaphor for insanity. As in lunatic. The Dark Side of the Moon. His friend is Icarus. Touched by genius and insanity and it’s hard to tell them apart. He/she saw too much of the moon. I don’t think it’s a romantic song
