Hier soir, avec ma Béa, nous sommes allés voir le concert des Waterboys au Bataclan. Super concert, ce groupe est génial, et sur scène on peut se rend compte d’une évidence; ce sont d’excellents musiciens.

Mais, j’ai beau connaître une bonne partie des titres de ce groupe par cœur, j’ai tout de même eu un petit moment de surprise lorsque Mike Scott a annoncé: « OK… The Glastonbury Song… Let’s go »

I dreamed myself from the sultry plains
to the old green square back in old Maybole
Rode the wind up to Stornaway
paused at the peak, pacified my soul
Caught the bus at the faery fort
made it to the mansion on the Boyne
see I come around to the ancient ways
I took a tip from the Buddha Boy

I just found God
I just found God
I just found God
where He always was

We came down from the Hill of Dreams
Bernadette, Mother Earth and you and me
through Carraroe, down the wildwood side
blinding out eyes in the shallow seas
Drank fire with the King of the Blues,
plugged in to the Medicine Way
took a long last look at Crazy Horse
push now for a golden age

I just found God
I just found God
I just found God
where He always was

I found myself on the roof of the world
just waiting for to get my wings
strange Angel in the changing light
said Brother you forgot something!
My heart beat from the inside out
so lucky just to be alive
can you tell what I’m talking about?
any day now the Sun’s gonna rise

I just found God
I just found God
I just found God
where He always was

There is a green hill far away
I’m going back there on fine day

Alors j’ai profité du moment, et surtout du refrain.
C’était hier, et aujourd’hui j’ai des idées de Glasto plein la tête…
