For those who didn’t know - Big Country got this crowd reaction by beginning their set with a song that was not a No. 1 hit, not a top 10 hit, but a B-Side. Brilliant band.
What a song. What a performance. I suffer with depression and this one of the best medicines. Jumping around the room to this and remembering the brilliance of Big Country always makes me feel better. Such a shame that Stuart couldn't find his own way to get through life. Thanks for everything, big man.
I have depression as well. It feckin sucks! But I always feel so patriotic listening to these guys, want to get up and throw mesel aboot. Lol. Miss you Stuart x
Seen them 15 times from the beginning to under wraps tour met stu outside royal court theatre got marks drumsticks .prize possessions .some live band they were snd I’ve seen a lot .very talented .I cried when stu gave up .fucked me off
Bouncing rhythm guitar, power drums, heavy bass perfecting the build for Stuart's incredible hook. I'm 28 and never had the pleasure of seeing the original BC live. They have the crowd in the palm of their hand. True rock and roll. 'Stay Alive'
The first time I saw Big Country was around a week or two before this show, at The International in Manchester. They opened with Restless Natives that night. I have before and since been to probably 300 concerts, including approx 20 BC gigs. I have seen Springsteen, U2, everyone... Nothing has even come close to the first 2 minutes of that night in Manchester. They were perfect, the sound was stunning, and the energy will never ever leave me.
I love watching this. Stuart's face at around 2.10, thinking "God, we sound great.." Well, Stuart, you did. The very best there ever was. Every instrument sounds perfect. My very first concert was Big Country at the International, and they opened with this. My feet hardly touched the floor all night, and I was hooked, forever.
Wonderful version! Indeed, that long intro belongs to it. Last week I bought the DVD from the movie Restless Natives. The film music and the images of Scotland gave me goose bumps. The film was not subtitled in Dutch, so it was sometimes quite difficult for me to understand the Scottish … I was already a fan of Big Country in 1984 and have seen them live three times in the Netherlands; the last time in April 2000 in Hardenberg. During concerts I always stood for the stage. Because the music of Big Country was exciting. The musicians always made contact with the audience, improvised their music and clearly enjoyed it. And I loved that. I already had several CDs from Big Country. But in the last few months, I have reinvented Big Country. On the internet I found all kinds of information: music, articles in newspapers and magazines, and so on. There's a lott to be found.
i am a restless native, and this calms my nerves!! scottish highlands produced some of the best talent out there!!! like come on , all you need some good mushrooms and listen to in a big country , dive into me , fields of fire and this song of course!! best music of all time!! i wish in some parallel universe he never died!!!
Only just discovered Big Country, always knew about them but never gave them a chance. I only heard this song today, oh my word what a tune. Modern music hold your head in shame. RIP Stuart
I always, come back here. Always. BC fans understand the attraction. You can't avoid or deny it. It has to be watched regularly! Stay alive! RIP Big Man
is it just me?? This is the definition of Scotland, Brave, bold, musical, passionate, and Stuart...I have incredible passion towards this eternal contribution.
@@peterstayne3765 Although he was born in England, Stuart (not Swewart) may have been the most Scottish member of the band, since his parents were Scottish. Bruce was born in Canada, and Tony and Mark are English.
I was there, another amazing night with one of the best live bands of a generation. Says it all about talent when a band sound BETTER live than in the studio. Are there many other bands who touched so many lives like BC did ?
By far the best start to a concert i have witnessed. The crowd were up for it long before the band came onstage. the sound of Bruce's guitar was just the right volume to hear every note. and when Tony played those first bass notes, it made my internal organs vibrate inside my ribcage. i get goose bumps even now
240 years We lived without hope and without pride So who will know where they come from? Who raised a torch for those who died? I will be with them In the summer sun and the winter snow They will come and clouds will go And show that we are proud again Powerful lyrics from Stu - was always a Yes man. Alba gu Brath!
dm g cheers dm g, Scotland's independence should invigorate the whole UK to tell the establishment what they are doing is not good enough for it's people. rise up England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Don't take their crap anymore! Force the elite to take on board the will of the majority. Peace to all the UK brethren
Truly one of the best bands full stop.EVER.The live gigs were a joyous life affirming moment in time.Thank You.Stuart.Mark.Tony.Bruce.take a bow.Miss you Stuart.
Stuart Adamsons parents were in England at the time of his birth due to circumstance..both parents were of Scottish heritage..he returned to Scotland at the age of four and grew up here..he was proud to BE SCOTTISH as anyone who ever saw him live would testify..doesn't take a genius to join the dots..DOH!!..🏴🏴🏴
Classic rendition....power, passion and precision!!! If the hairs on the back of yer neck didnt stand to attention whilst watching that then you're not human!!!
Robert HP Laversuch Yes Robert, very well thanks for asking ( thought I'd replied already to your message so maybe I'm not as cogent as maybe I was in my "prime". Hope you are well yourself. Auf Wiedersehn pet!
Big Country cost me a hundred quid! I was bouncing so much in the Barrowland that my sweat destroyed the notes in my pooch! I was very lucky to get to work with them years later. And more recently with Mark with Big Minds. I know that Mark isn't playing on this vid.
Saw them at Wembley as a support for one of the last “Jam” concerts. Jesus Christ! What a lifelong love that turned out to be... even without “Restless Natives” ..!
another day in a world with no stewart adamson, how does it revolve without his guitar playing to make our hearts soar, it reminds me to breath in my land i shared with him so briefly,. one of the first things i did when my children were born was to introduce them to big country & runrig, a rock sound conceived in Scotland, as striking as a battle cry that breaks your heart but drives you on, anyone wishing to undeerstand us Scots other than the risky asking them if they are english? our big country comes out in us so look away if you as squimish. the music of big country could lead us intto battle with runrig's 'dance called america' or 'skye' leading our charge to death or glory, i wish stewart had chosen the glory, he would be worshipped & never knew i.
thanks, i have absolutely no recollection of posting that comment? the spelling & grammar are atrocious, i was obviously stoned when i wrote it, SHA!!!
Big Country-you cosume my Soul! Thye rifts, lyrics, style and melody are tha of a genius. Stuart,,play in Heaven and Eiledon Scotand, and the World are yours. That Axe -byouown it Kristi Potochnik USA With Love Forever. My Heart Sings!
What do you mean even though i am English. Stuart Adamson was born in Manchester, yes England. And i guess that is about the onky good thing about being english
Stunning rendition of this song,and the boys know it.Two Fifers and two Londoners all living in their home towns.God knows how they made it work,but they did and then some.Whst a band.
RIP STUART YOU LEFT OUR WORLD TO SOON. THE PAIN AND SUFFERING YOU EXPERIENCED IN YOUR FINAL DAYS MUST HAVE BEEN INTOLERABLE. YOU HAVE LEFT A LEGACY OF A TRUE TALENTED ICONIC SINGER THAT TRANSCENDS GENERATIONS. THANK YOU.
Adamson was the most underrated guitarist and the band was also. B.C. were great---nearly every song had with a soul stirring anthemic structure, lyrics filled with love and hope, and an incredible drummer. The best live concert I EVER attended . . . and I've been to most big names. Guadalcanal Diary opened for them . . . how's that for perfect?
Stuart was, is and will always be of my biggest musical heroes. Listening to John Peel in my early-mid teens, hearing The Skids and then of course, Big Country. Those guitars, the incredible driving rhythm of the bass and the drums, still music that stirs the soul and lifts the spirit. Only got to see Big Country once, an amazing gig at the Hippodrome in Bristol and I took my little brother for what was his first gig. Not a bad introduction to live music. If only Stuart knew just how much he was respected and loved, an inspirational talent.
Saw these guys three times. Each time, every member of the band was bursting with energy and giving it their all. Amazing how Stuart managed to maintain his pitch throughout the gig, night after night. Hugely talented band that never quite got the 'rock band' status and appreciation that they deserved.
One of the most underrated bands of this era , or any era. GOD!!!!! they were magnificent live. RIP Stuart. What can you say about this great musician? He was ABSOLUTELY one of the best singer, songwriters ever and what a guitarist. Loved this band.
I was lucky to have seen the band at the Irvine Auditorium in Philadelphia in 1983 or 1984. Hard to believe it was over thirty years ago. I still have several of their 12" singles from their early days!
Lucky enough to be at The Forum (or was it still the T&C) that hot summer night all those years ago. One of BCs best live songs without any doubt and a brilliant track to open a gig with... Sing up "I will be with them..."
Took me ages to get the sound right for my music but I was shocked to find out it's just reverb distortion and a chorus pedal the real sound was in his fingers amazing guitarist
I think these guys should have made more use of the sound. Maybe you won't like this, but this guitarist is the only person I've heard who comes close: ua-cam.com/video/3pk3A_QSINI/v-deo.html
I still remember recording this on ITV. They used to show some good live shows late at night. I still remember coming downstairs the next morning and being blown away by this version of Restless Natives....wasn't expecting it and River Of Hope is great on this show too.
I was there! If I remember correctly (and it's a big 'if' after all this time...) they opened with this song - which led to a loud whoop! and everyone rushing the security to get to the front!
And to think this man was omitted from Rolling Stone Magazines top 100 guitarists list... he was one of the very best. Brilliant X
+Lisa Knell really why was that then?x
There loss is our Gain Thanks to youTube Etc and il 2nd you Brilliant x
Lisa Knell best by a mile
Gianluca Badejo true, but this American knows how talented he was and what a great band this was, especially live.
Lisa Knell Rolling Stone is the biggest joke of a "music" publication that ever existed.
For those who didn’t know - Big Country got this crowd reaction by beginning their set with a song that was not a No. 1 hit, not a top 10 hit, but a B-Side. Brilliant band.
Something that could only happen in the 80s, and what an era to have been a teen in, it was a pleasure.
The greatest band ever…in my humble opinion.
Oh to be in that crowd
Which song
@@texasfossilguy Restless Natives as per the title.
What a song. What a performance. I suffer with depression and this one of the best medicines. Jumping around the room to this and remembering the brilliance of Big Country always makes me feel better. Such a shame that Stuart couldn't find his own way to get through life. Thanks for everything, big man.
Svejk fan same but im 12 and i FUCKING LOVE THIS I ALSO HAVE DEPREESION BECASE BULLYS
Svejk fan. Go for it.
I have depression as well. It feckin sucks! But I always feel so patriotic listening to these guys, want to get up and throw mesel aboot. Lol. Miss you Stuart x
WHO IN THE FUCK ARE YOU TO SAY HE DIDN'T. . . . . OR TO SAY ANYTHING ABOUT SOMEONE YOU DIDN'T KNOW ? ? . . . i n c r e d i b l y s e l f i s h
I hear you... me too. This music is the business
Totally fucking epic. Stuart was a genius, not nearly enough recognition for his amazing contribution to music. Just awesome.
Because he was anti-crapitalism, anti-war and anti-competition, he was blacklisted.
RIP stuart - one of the best live bands of all time. Very underrated. great film restless natives
+Ian Gelder totally agree never really got the recognition they deserved brilliant film only watched it last week again lol
THIS is a gun!!!!
Seen them 15 times from the beginning to under wraps tour met stu outside royal court theatre got marks drumsticks .prize possessions .some live band they were snd I’ve seen a lot .very talented .I cried when stu gave up .fucked me off
Great band movie sucked

They were great live, afterwards you left feeling elated and happy. Never had that with any other gigs ..
Visited Stuarts memorial bench last week in pittencrieff park very moving for me thankyou for all the happy times stuart and the lads ..
The first time I saw Big Country was around a week or two before this show, at The International in Manchester. They opened with Restless Natives that night.

i really jealous i would be so happy just to have seen them once.
I love watching this. Stuart's face at around 2.10, thinking "God, we sound great.."
Well, Stuart, you did. The very best there ever was. Every instrument sounds perfect. My very first concert was Big Country at the International, and they opened with this. My feet hardly touched the floor all night, and I was hooked, forever.
This man carried so much talent, so effortlessly.
Awesome on the guitar and excellent voice and accent.
The 23 people who disliked this performance clearly don’t know what great music is.
Brings a tear to my eye even after all these years, one of the greatest live bands.
Lucky enough to see Big Country live. One of the best live bands ever
The BEST FEEL GOOD tune ever.....simply brilliant!! Stuart at his amazing best.........lost but NEVER FORGOTTEN!!
STAY ALIVE!!

So does Manchester 🏴 Where Stewart was born
Only just discovered Big Country, always knew about them but never gave them a chance. I only heard this song today, oh my word what a tune. Modern music hold your head in shame. RIP Stuart
Enjoy it all mate, they are something else. 😁
@@BC1000Stars and I'm Scottish too. That guitar is the sexiest thing I've heard for a long time lol
Never again will anybody come close to this amazing talent .Thankyou Big country for these timeless classics.
Still loving it 2021....big country made timeless music....rip stuart
I always, come back here. Always. BC fans understand the attraction. You can't avoid or deny it. It has to be watched regularly!
Stay alive!
RIP Big Man
i was lucky enough to see Big Country on numerous occasions and every time they were superb. Stuart was and is my all time fav guitarist.
is it just me??
This is the definition of Scotland, Brave, bold, musical, passionate, and Stuart...I have incredible passion towards this eternal contribution.
russellsmiler if Scotland ever has its' own National Anthem....I vote 'One Great Thing'. The passion and Celtic flair of Stuart can't be equalled.
you hit the nail on the head. everything the band set out to be right here (with the exception of a missing Mark).
Fuck all brave about Scotland nowadays

I was there, another amazing night with one of the best live bands of a generation. Says it all about talent when a band sound BETTER live than in the studio. Are there many other bands who touched so many lives like BC did ?
No doubt, BC were truly great. New Model Army were (are) snother band I believe touched people's hearts.

The best band ever love them so much can't stop playing there music , just perfect
240 years
We lived without hope and without pride
So who will know where they come from?
Who raised a torch for those who died?
I will be with them
In the summer sun and the winter snow
They will come and clouds will go
And show that we are proud again
Powerful lyrics from Stu - was always a Yes man.
Alba gu Brath!
You should make this your national anthem next week, good luck and best wishes.

Don't forget this was used in the FANTASTIC movie, ' Restless Natives ' 😊
This a real concert everyone never stops at all dance songs jumping that mosh pit yeah hella yeah great stuff witness this awesomeness
love how the track slowly builds, layer upon layer and then bang here we go. Great track, great band, timeless classic
Wish they had done a soundtrack to Restless Natives on one album, classic song classic band.
They did. The first Rarities has the whole 40ish minute version
One of my favourite films, backed by this absolutely amazing band. Goose bumps every time i hear this riff.
We lost an amazing talent when we lost Stuart, arguably one of the best musical talents of his generation. Rock in peace.
I was in that 'mosh-pit'. Incredible show!!

Damn. Stuart could make a guitar sing. He had an amazing emotive voice. Sad sad day when he left this world.
Love this, saw them in 1982 I think wembley arena such a great sound and those guitars sing to us all RIP stuart
The movie was fuckin epic , great music , great scenery , great story ! They should have made a follow up !
Fk awesome as usual, saw them live glasgow apolo Xmas 1984 what a Christmas that was
RIP Stuart
Best intro ever by anyone.
One of the few bands I regret not seeing live. BC were an incredible band RIP Stuart.
One of my favourite guitar riffs of all time. Thank you Dad for raising me on these lads. Stay Alive ❤.
Stuart was, is and will always be of my biggest musical heroes. Listening to John Peel in my early-mid teens, hearing The Skids and then of course, Big Country.
Those guitars, the incredible driving rhythm of the bass and the drums, still music that stirs the soul and lifts the spirit.
Only got to see Big Country once, an amazing gig at the Hippodrome in Bristol and I took my little brother for what was his first gig. Not a bad introduction to live music.
If only Stuart knew just how much he was respected and loved, an inspirational talent.
this track gave me goosebumps when I first heard it in 1985, and I still get them now.
This song is still SICK! What an incredibly underrated band.
Heart breaking still
me too
Yep me too.still love big country.no one else comes close.
A fantastic song from one of my favourite films ever. It's when I hear this my Scottish blood (about 25% of my heritage) flows like fire.
big country took me from rap to rock
Saw these guys three times. Each time, every member of the band was bursting with energy and giving it their all. Amazing how Stuart managed to maintain his pitch throughout the gig, night after night. Hugely talented band that never quite got the 'rock band' status and appreciation that they deserved.
Absolutely magnificent! The film was magnificent too!
A tear in my eye.

Likely the greatest song ever written.
Doesn't get BETTER than THIS.. No SIR... Thanks Stuart, Bruce, Tony and Pat and Mark... AWESOME You Were !!!!! ALWAYS and EVER....
Absolute banger of a song
Great to watch this performance and also a bonus to see the T&C Club. I loved that sweaty atmospheric venue.
it BRINGS BACK , MAGIC /NIGHTS/ MEMORIES of love / happiness and sharring good things !

One off the best song 🎵
"Big Country" ❤
Balm for the soul.
Thank you very much guys !
It's lovely to see some open-handed drumming. Great band, great tune. Stuart's just has class on his own.
Stuart left his mark on this world for sure,a legend in my eyes,never to be forgotten ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The boy's on fire pure class!!!!
Perfection perfection the best band ever no sound effects just pure music fantastic
I was at this gig. Well worth the journey from the north east
I’m right down the front! Happy birthday Stuart x
Lucky enough to be at The Forum (or was it still the T&C) that hot summer night all those years ago. One of BCs best live songs without any doubt and a brilliant track to open a gig with... Sing up "I will be with them..."
Was there too....bouncing all night long....great venue that they played often. Probably the best gig ever...and I've been to hundreds !!
Brilliant! I was there....!!! THANK YOU, Stuart, for some absolutely amazing music - this one being right near the top of the list!
Just stupendous, isn't it? What an atmosphere right from the beginning - quite superb and thanks for posting it.
this is my favourite big country song.
blows my mind how Stuart makes the guitar sounds like bagpipes. The most underrated band ever
Exactly he makes the guitar sound like the bagpipes !
Took me ages to get the sound right for my music but I was shocked to find out it's just reverb distortion and a chorus pedal the real sound was in his fingers amazing guitarist

Me too. Just in front of Bruce. I've still got the ticket in a frame on the wall.
Me as well. Glued to boards in front of SA. Amazing night!
Saw them last night in Brighton, they still got it , still FANTASTIC !!!!❤
I still remember recording this on ITV. They used to show some good live shows late at night. I still remember coming downstairs the next morning and being blown away by this version of Restless Natives....wasn't expecting it and River Of Hope is great on this show too.
Yes...RIP young Stuart....amazing band...one of the best..love them...keeps me going...STAY ALIVE..✌THANKS BIG COUNTRY
I was there! If I remember correctly (and it's a big 'if' after all this time...) they opened with this song - which led to a loud whoop! and everyone rushing the security to get to the front!
Absolutely brilliant.
This song reaches right into my very soul, and pulls, pulls, pulls,
Goose bumps every time.....
