It's from 86/87. Heard it twice on the live stream Nov. 20 and 21 (James Scott 87-04-09)at 11:50am EST but have yet to hear who it is or the title. Main chorus says " tell everybody I'm going to wait for 10 years" then something about "I'm going to wander among the ....fields(?)". Please let me know the band and title of the song. Thanks!

It's "Among the Wicklow Hills" by Daniel O'Donnell.
Lyrics:
The autumn evening filled with copper shades I see the birds neck in the frame A figure walks into the sunset Someone goes past suspended from the sky
Chorus:
Takes more imagination When everything's remote control For me it's just a case of What's on the far side of the road Tell everybody I'm going away for ten years I'm going to wander among the Wicklow Hills
The travelling children in their Sunday clothes Lost on the corner of the street Fat gypsy lady smacks the window pane A farm dog gets out on the motorway
Chorus
