Forever in my heart this lovely album💘💘

A absolute classi , thank you Mike ♥️

I've listened to other versions but this one seems to capture the dreamlike quality with the words really connecting to the soul.

Mike Scott's voice is wonderful

such beauty

Ich ging zum Haselholz Weil ein Feuer in meinem Kopf war Und einen Haselstab geschnitten und geschält Und hakte eine Beere an einen Faden Und als weiße Motten auf dem Flügel waren Und mottenähnliche Sterne flackerten heraus Ich ließ die Beere in einen Bach fallen Und eine kleine Silberforelle gefangen Als ich es auf den Boden gelegt hatte Ich ging, um das Feuer in Flammen zu setzen Aber etwas raschelte auf dem Boden Und jemand hat mich bei meinem Namen genannt Es war ein schimmerndes Mädchen geworden Mit Apfelblüte im Haar Wer hat mich bei meinem Namen genannt und ist gelaufen? Und verblasste durch die aufhellende Luft Obwohl ich alt bin mit wandernden Durch hohle und hügelige Gebiete Ich werde herausfinden, wohin sie gegangen ist Und küsse ihre Lippen und nimm ihre Hände Und spazieren Sie zwischen langem, gesprenkeltem Gras Und zupfen, bis Zeit und Zeiten vorbei sind Die silbernen Äpfel des Mondes Die goldenen Äpfel der Sonne Die silbernen Äpfel des Mondes Die goldenen Äpfel der Sonne

Katie Kim apparently sang backing vocals, a brilliant compliment to mike scott

Love this band so wish they still toured an English man don't speak Gaelic live in London but exiled scouser have seen them many times superb shows every time 💙 👏

ahhhh...when Mike still had 'It' ... I miss him

This is truly wonderful, spiritual and sensitively beautiful. Very special indeed.

My favourite runrig song is the only rose, from the cutter and the clan. This one is always a gem.😁

We saw the “ Yeats” tour at Hammersmith those years ago,,,, Beautiful song that still brings a tear to the eye,,,,especially as we age,,, Just a stunning gig that will never be forgotten by those who were there,,,, “ thrill is gone” was another that night,,

That girl is you with a Apple blossem in your hair who called my name 💘💘

So grateful for this awesome band 😊❤️🎶🎶🎶

Gorgeous! I also frequently turn my poems into songs, and it is magical when the music just bursts forth as if it was meant to be, thank you for sharing this.

Lol. I guess I appreciate the sentiment but please, stop; W B Yeats does not need musicians to ‘enhance’ him. There’s a reason I Want to Hold Your Hand should not be read as a poem.

Lyrics Scott-Yeats I went out to the hazel wood Because a fire was in my head And cut and peeled a hazel wand And hooked a berry to a thread. And when white moths were on the wing And moth-like stars were flickering out I dropped the berry in a stream And caught a little silver trout. When I had laid it on the ground I went to blow the fire a-flame But something rustled on the floor And some one called me by my name. It had become a glimmering girl With apple blossom in her hair Who called me by my name and ran And faded through the brightening air. Though I am old with wandering Through hollow lands and hilly lands I will find out where she has gone And kiss her lips and take her hands. And walk among long dappled grass And pluck till time and times are done The silver apples of the moon The golden apples of the sun The silver apples of the moon The golden apples of the sun.

saw them at ibrox glasgow in 84 stole the show from simple minds awesome

Fabulous.

Sooo beautiful makes me dream of a place I want to be right now💘💘

The "Waterboys" need to be Waterboarded for this massacre. Utter shite. Reminds me of Father Ted's Eurovision song contest entry.. "My lovely horse".

This is very Special indeed! Ive Lost my Breath once again Listening to this Great Artist, Mike Scott. And, the Great WB... Restless 'n Breathless in Heaven! 🎼🌊🌊🌊🎭

Thank you Mike.

i named my sheltie Aengus , after this poem, which is my absolute favorite of all poems ever.....

and brian ferry riffs

Lovely piece from The Waterboy's best album since Room to Roam... I love the passeist edge of some songs, the rich and varied orchestrations, which remind me of the band's earlier days... And Scott has penned such strong melodies throughout the album.

I learnt the words to this song. Now people think I’m highbrow because I can recite poetry.

I am only men not by happy.

Magic!

Stunning Scottish Sceanary

This is too harsh .It lacks a gentle , Celtic tone . I much prefer Christy Moore's rendition .

Look in his eyes he’s on quite a mad trip! Whack fol le hahaha. CELTIC MAGIK.

This is one of my favourite songs. I think Everything You See is one of the best albums they've released. It's sad that The Story is their final studio album.

Love this song!

hef lier hop,hef thie hop,no.I hef hop I hef a true en vinner.I hef not by good in life.sorry ol songs dont bout me.

I am tierd of this so I du efrithings for you if you now a veg to trues

I have seen this thumbnail for years and was reluctant to click on it as a satisfied Donovan fan. At first the voice bothered me... and then I was blown away. Excited to see what else the Watery Boys have on offer.

stel,funny.I vos stolent 22 agust yers 1974.so who are me to days,him is a thief to long time.

Beautiful images added to a a beautiful song!

thank you mike scott,,for bringing the beautiful words of yeats to life in musical magic.Genius.

Mike Scott is Scottish Not Irish even though he is in love with Irish

William Butler Yeats' poetry and songs are strong and evocative and very strong. This is a greatest interpretation of his imaginarium by Micky Scott. It's Melody & Eros & Lynx Africa at its finest...
