Paul Brady's "The Island"

Written 20 years ago, the lyrics of Paul Brady's "The Island" ring even more true today. In this song with additional commentary, Brady expresses the devastation and emotions that engulfed the people of Ireland in the early eighties. However, the wars, bombing, and fighting that are happening around us today, remind us of the mindset Brady was addressing. "If you are not with us, you are against us. Turning your back on your own." In this powerful piece, Brady truly does pierce through the emotional flak from an ordinary man's perspective, to touch the heart of the human soul.

Saw PB several times in the early '80s at the Half Moon in Putney. Just unbelievably brilliant live. He signed an album for me, and next gig he walked past me to the stage and said 'are you still here?' in a lovely playful way, in that beautiful voice. Unfortunately I was being squired by my brother-in-law of that time, but in my diverting daydreamy version we disappeared off after that gig into the night together and lived happily ever after. I can dream, and believe me I do (sigh);)

Literate appraisal of the bleak troublescape of the 80's. Educated at the same school as Heaney and the articulation shines through. magnificent
