Album: A Pagan Place (1984)

I first heard of the Waterboys with "The Whole of The Moon" (a banger), but one summer I worked at an art gallery where they had a bunch of tapes that I secretly copied for myself one at a time on Saturday night between my shifts. "A Pagan Place" was one of these.
It's not a completely cheerless album, but let's say like 50% bleak. And this "gulag ballad" (a term I just came up with) is definitely on that side of things. It's a powerful story whose always-timely moral is "Dictators are bad."

Rags for #WaterboysWednesday
A track from the album A Pagan Place released back in 1984. It seems to take on a whole new dimension when performed live.

This is an adventure of a song and the lyrics are compelling. I can't decide on which ones to quote as all of them are integral to the story.
I could have chosen virtually any song composed by #MikeScott as he has such a creative mind. This one however is one of many stand outs for me within #TheWaterboys back catalogue.
