The Waterboys

The Waterboys

The Waterboys es una banda formada en 1983 por Mike Scott. La composición de la misma ha girado siempre en torno a músicos de Escocia e Irlanda. Las sedes de la misma se han alternado entre Dublín, Spiddal, Nueva York y Findhorn. Su música ha pasado desde una mezcla de folk Celta hasta el rock'n'roll, siempre con un estilo múy personal otorgado por el talento de su líder Mike. Tras diez años de grabar y girar sin interrupción, en 1993 se disolvieron y Mike Scott inició su carrera en solitario. Se refundaron en el 2000 y continuaron girando y publicando discos. Para Mike, "No hay diferencia entre Waterboys y yo porque, para mí, significan la misma cosa".

Letra de A Girl Called Johnny (Live)
I remember Johnny - hey!
Johnny come lately
I remember her shoes like a ballerina
A girl called Johnny who
changed her name when she
discovered her choice was to
change or to be changed

I remember a girl called Johnny
black as hell and white as a ghost
"Don't talk about life or death"
she said "I've had enough of both"
A girl called Johnny who was not scared
they'd have torn her to pieces but
who would dare?

I remember a girl called Johnny
the train came to town, boy she got on it
without looking back, there was barely a word
If she said goodbye, well I never heard
but the noise goes on
the noise, the jazz
and the truth is in somebody else's hands
and the house that a girl called johnny built
is now just so much ashes and sand
