    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.

    A Great Answer MIKE SCOTT 👍 About Not Wanting To Answer Questions On The Catholic / Protestant Question.
    We're in the year 2024 and Ireland 🇮🇪 have evolved and should remain proud of moving on over the past 15 - 20 Year's.
    Mike Scott you're looking well & so happy that you're settled down in your personal life 👍

      My dad was an Irish catholic, my mother a Scottish protestant, I spoke to him on social media about it, he wouldn't express an opinion about the chaos that caused back in the 60's among families. I understand his stance, he doesn't really want to rock the boat one way or another!

    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!

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.

      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.
