  • Fantastic film, wouldn't have been out of place if it had been made by Ealing Studios, and it's blessed with a tremendous soundtrack too

  • I was a good friend of Stuarts, and he'd hate all this bickering. Stu lived for his music, and only gave the world just a small taste of what he twas capable of. Great lad, musical genius, and sorely missed...10 years ago yesterday Big Man.....Thanks for all the good times mate.....

  • Fantastic film....Fantastic soundtrack...just enjoy the film and the music....Stuart Adamson was a fantastic songwriter xxxx Restless Natives is a fantastic film xx

  • How bout we stop insulting each other over stupid stuff that don't matter and stop dishonoring Stuart Adamson and Robert Burns memory. This is a great song and enjoy it for what it is. Your insults to one another cause you're this or that is meaningless and useless.

  • from ireland this my friends favourite song until he passed (RIP DENNIS FOLEY) and this song reminds me of him

  • @darrendaly1234 really? how interesting

  • @darrendaly1234 really? how interesting

  • scotland,a fantastic country if you are rich,england,a country full of racists,bigots,and class driven tories.no comparison,Scotland for me.

  • @tramlad2

    Hmm you sound very bigoted and class obsessed???

  • @TheStevo75 is this 'day of the twat' no then fuck of you wanker, and you are just jealous of the scots, what a sad little man.

  • oh and actually think for yourself, the scots subsidise you lot all the time and no more will this happen and you are pissed off because you are stuck down that shithole and cant do anything about it. enjoy loser!!!!!

  • @MrXela33 shut it you scottish alki you are no good to anyone you lot your just a drain on our economy hahahaha!

  • @TheStevo75 your reply says everything about you, uneducated dumb and with a face like yours its no wonder you are angry aall the time haha, ugly fucker!!!!

  • @TheStevo75 oh and im not scottish so you are wrong there as usual, i jst don;t like misinformed twats like yourself who dont know what they are talking about, dumb inbred wanker!!

    Brilliant.

  • DO YOU SELL FALSE TITS?? LOL

  • Forget bigotry and sectarianism, forget hatred, forget Flower of Scotland and its anti-English sentiments, this song should be our national anthem, period!!!!!!!!!

    

  • @jrms999 Great for you guys up there to have this as your national anthem. However, as an Irish person I would strongly disagree. Just think with Restless Natives playing at the start of every rugby match you would win everything and we (or anyone else) would not have a chance as your players would be so impassioned and fired up. Please no, keep Flower of Scotland please!

  • Bloody Hell, it's the man from uncle!

  • An underrated gem of a film and a classic sound track to boot.

  • Fucking love this-you should too!!

  • I would have walked to scotland to be in that video...

  • cant even tell you how much i love this film!

  • What a song!!

  • This is my Fav Big Country song. Just Love the Riff and Stu's voice. Named my son Robert after it. I have never really cared for much as i have suffered with addiction like Stuart. But i can say without doubt and fear, his lyrics and music are very special to me. May he now rest in peace. If he died in a combat zone box him up and leave, if he died and still came home lay him where the rose is sown. My Respect to him and his

  • can you make a vid with the lyrics? PLEASE!!!

  • @ozzmaster13 Get it on I tunes. The album is called "Restless Natives and Rarities"

  • restless natives is a film to watch when you have had a drink an think when you watch im so proud to be scottish and want to go an get a couple of masks an a motorbike an do it yourself lol clown an the wolfman always lives in the scottish hearts for what we wish we could do

  • This a hold up

  • this was the film that got me into big country and motorbikes, total class !

  • This song would be right up there as one of my desert island discs. Possiable number one.

  • i saw Big Country live twice in the 80's - pure class by the way!

  • What an awesome film, it reminds me so much of my teenage years, great escapism, Fantastic soundtrack, from Big Country (god rest Stuart) met him in TOWER records glasgow in the early nineties, what a really nice guy. I recommend Everyone watch this film, Scottish or not, although a lot of the Humour would be lost on non scots,

  • What a daft wee film that was. Funny as fuck! It came out at about the same time as Local Hero and Gregory's Girl. A good time for Scottish movies.

  • zzzzzz

  • I grew up in wester hailes (Edinburgh) in the mid eighties so, i really relate to this film i wish had been in princes street when this was being filmed, I look back as Edinburgh was then, And think what a glorious time it was, The city is total crap now with the tram works and the imigrant invasion there is , The city had its problems back then too but nothing like it is now,.

  • @Justdisco Edinburgh, was, is and always will be the greatest city in the world pal so dinny talk pish.

  • @kenbenguitar youre the one talking pish ya raJ, if Edinburgh's so bloody great then have a look in the citys evening news and look at all bad news thats in it, better still take a wee walk along princes street starting at haymarket, and see all the local idiots pissed drunk in the middle of the afternoon, Edinburgh's the greatest city in the world "don't make me laugh !, I admire youre love for our city but don't agree with youre view.

  • @davidc171 the Evening News is alot o shite! Edinburgh was always full a drunks, its nothing new! Edinburgh is the greatest and i will never leave! :)

  • @kenbenguitar LOL Pity

  • @Justdisco well, we cant all have an "apartment" in Paris, eh!

  • @kenbenguitar How did you know ! LOL

  • @davidc171 Haven't you noticed? There's bad news in EVERY newspaper! . . .and drinking until Hughie comes is definitely a nationwide problem.

I've got to do things on my own" . . "They're here, they're here, they're right here in the town" . . .rip Stu.
