All BC's songs are brilliant. And Stuart was a true poet. Sometimes I think that people with addiction problems are way more spiritual than us all, I mean look at what Stuart was able to achieve through his wonderful songs...I guess addiction is the price to pay to be more intelligent, sensitive & spiritual than average. I hope you finally found the peace you were desperately looking for Stuart. You were a beautiful man, inside & out. Love & respect from Ireland.
"I guess addiction is the price to pay to be more intelligent, sensitive & spiritual than average." - A controversial yet interesting theory. Of course, plenty of people have managed to be spiritual and intelligent (and written or created brilliant art and music) without the aid of drugs or addiction. Maybe those who were affected by drugs and created great work never would have done so without it? Interesting thoughts, anyway.
Such an underrated band, the thing that pisses me off is that in about 5 years time it`ll be "cool" to like them as part of some nostalgia thing and everyone will jump on the bandwagon
jagtyckeromkaffe; he was going through a serious depression problem. Very serious. One night in hawaii 2001 and killed himself. I think he'd been drunk too. It's so so sad. He was such a fantastic guy.
filmed at Wittenoom Western Australia. One of the deadliest places on Earth. The place has been a no go zone for years as it's riddled with deadly blue asbestos. It's illegal to go there.
this was my fave song as soon as i got back into big country after about 5 years away form em. now what did I go and do that for???? S-| lol R.I.P Stuart hard getting the change from stu's scottish accent to tony's english as well, but i'll get used to it in time...

RIP Stuart, 22 years ago today. X
Brilliant song, brilliant band.
God it`s great being Scottish.
Just a great band who left memories of classic songs
This song was actual in the UK charts in August 1988 not early 90's as described.
Another favourite Big Country song
un groupe génial! je n'arrête pas de les écouter.Quel génie et quel talent.Repose en paix STUART.

My best friend introduced me to them 20 years ago, been a fan ever since, this song is one of my favorites
Great stuff. Stuart was a very talented man. Thanks.

16 years on youtube.In a way it seems like youtube just started but it also seems like it's been around forever
my dads fav band
1988
The song made my personal charts back in 2003! In 1988 I pretty much ignored the record. Better later than never, huh!

The guy from the vocal look likes a brazilian actor called Tiago Lacerda.
Who sang back-up for this band on this brilliant record?

Anyone know where this was filmed?
Australia 🇦🇺
Yep, any idea what part of Oz. I’m guessing Western Australia.
