    A truly superb 👌 excellent song, it's very 80's, but with a cutting edge style. Very underrated band, the Square & the Circle is an excellent album.
    Brings back very happy memories of when I was only 9 years of age, going to the Listowel Races back in 1985 in absolute awe of the colour, flashes of joy on the amusements, and sadly of people that are no longer with us. Ireland was in an economic recession at the rime, but it was a magical time being a child.
    The funny thing is, we had nothing back then, but we had everything. Today, we've everything, but really, we've nothing.

    A song that I remember from my childhood - I'm so glad I found it again, this and "Lean on Me", which was another that threw me back to the mid 80s.
    "Where's the peace and understanding?"
    "Go drum, go - dance round and round""
