Thanks for the recommendation, Richard.  By the way, it was actually me
that thought that Whole of the Moon was the first single - a case of
quotes getting confused, I think, but no problem.

Regards

	I have to correct you as well, Wendy. The boy named Johnny was
actually
	a girl (the title of the song is "A Girl called Johnny", but I
don't
	know what the first Waterboys-hit ever was. "The Whole of the
Moon" no
	doubt was the biggest hit here in Holland.

	Mike Scott by the way is in more ways connected to Kate Bush. On
the
	inlay of the Waterboys album 'Dream Harder' he speaks about a
dream in
	which he meets Kate. The dream he describes is, as all dreams,
very
	confusing, so I can't really tell you more about it. But I can
really
	recommend this album to you (as for all the Waterboys albums,
especially
	Room to Roam). He went solo a few years ago and made a great
album. End
	of this month, beginning of next, a second solo-album of Mike
should
	come out.

	Some say that knowledge is something that you'll never have...
