Stu was a fantastic singer great voice he's very sadly missed fronting a grope like Big Country was amazing for him even though Mike Peters tried to take his place from the Alame even though he was a great vocalist I always loved Big Country in the 80s I guess Stuart was going though hard time to tragically take his own life in the mid 90s gone but certainly not ever forgotten 😔💙🫶 there music will live on though as they had many gems throughout the 80s them an Simple Minds 2 of the greatest rock/pop bands of the 80s to come out of Glasgow Scotland!
Flame of the West would have been a better lead off single from the Steeltown album, more immediate with the guitars more prominent than they were in this song. I always thought it was a strange decision to release this as a single at all, even though it contains my favourite line from any BC song.

Amazing song !
💖💖💖
So glad someone uploaded this, took me right back to that time-Stuart you are so missed by so many
This song owned me in the '80's, nothing else mattered anymore.
The picture quality on this is amazing!
This performance, the words, in particular, make me weep and lament the pain and sorrow Stu must have felt to bring him to suicide.
This is what got me into Big Country
...me too - went on to see them loads of times, until they became too american sounding - RIP Stuart
stewart could look down the barrel (TV term for looking at the viewer through the lens) and holds that look for the audience.

This was about Ronald Reagan and might have a reason why it wasn’t released as a single
