Jul 7, 2008 - You are 15 ? Then imaging to go to war soon (2 years to go), fight for 3 years and come back from war only to be sent to the Gulag. What is more powerful in this song: the musik or the lyrics ?

Jul 7, 2008 - True alright! If not, tell what is a lie in the lyric.

Jul 7, 2008 - From official The Waterboys website:"Mike has said in interviews that the song was inspired by a book called "The Diary Of Vikenty Angorov" but that the story itself, though based on historical fact, was his own."

Jul 7, 2008 - o man that made me lol
wyko33 Says:
Jul 7, 2008 - are you serious? the song is about the millions of young men that stalin had murdered because they talked to a fucking american or britian during the war. he wanted to make sure that communism would remain in his country and stop democracy from coming about.

Jul 7, 2008 - what a powerful song. but why cant i find this song on there discography? what album was it on?
loopydoug Says:
Jul 7, 2008 - i would like to hear your opinion on greater detail. we all know that communism is a great idea, but just doesn't work as a government. its been tried many times with the same results. i believe it was Einstein that said "idiocy is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results". could you explain why you believe that communism would work in Greece, even though it has failed in so many other places.

Jul 7, 2008 - the keyboard is mightier than sword. the only way to shut up an idiot is to say something that looks smart, although he didnt seem to be responding to any other comments. so how do like the waterboys? they got into celtic stuff around the time they did this one i think.
jukenfist Says:
Jul 7, 2008 - hmmm...not crazy about them, but i love their "this is the sea" song =D
elric101 Says:
