The Island (song)

The Island (song)

"The Island" is a 1985 folk song by Irish musician Paul Brady. Some claim it was written as a condemnation of the 1987 Remembrance Day Massacre. This is impossible, of course, as at the time of its recording, the bombings were not to take place for another two years. There are elements of the song, however, which could be construed as Anti-Terrorism.
