[dinkeldal]

schitterende song van BC

[edwardfirth49]

Nowt to say, mindblowing.

[n8tureboy]

I'm American, but my ancestors come from Ireland. I often have Celtic Dreams.

One day I'll visit the old country where my people come from. Stay Alive!

[remoganda]

Come al solito... meraviglioso Dany !!!!

Un bacione !

[Danymailand]

Grazie Remo! Mi dispiace solo di non aver più materiale sul quale lavorare! Mi piaceva fare i video dei Magnifici BC..

[Prizak1]

People tend to forget that nationality is not sthg we choose, we're just born somewhere in this world rather than somewhere else, so what? Why being so proud of your roots, what difference does it make where you're born? This is so bloody narrow minded, beside racist. People who think that their culture is better than others make me laugh big time. Stop with this patriotic bullshit & start seeing people for what they truly are, human beings made of flesh & blood exactly like yourselves.

[bigcountrygeorge]

i meant into the fire plus it is a bit differant

[bigcountrygeorge]

this is walk into the fire?!?

[aarlevanbram]

[aarlevanbram]

A strange but lovely song.

[tyeistops]

lovely indeed.....

still trying to understand it though....

[kezzer2]

Doesnt matter where he was born...does it? Hes missed................His roots were in Scotland...Im always made welcome...generous people..and the Eire comments....Celts.....? Get educated...Irish and Scots have traded culture,music and goods for hundreds of years...

[TheAmericanbornscot]

@kezzer2 EXACTLY. Im American(though of SCOTTISH mainly........and some irish).

WE MISS YOU STUART!!! RIP.

[mellon2332]

superb

[UB40Music]

I have a dream...united Eíre, thats my dream.

[Allyclark]

I agree in an united Eire, and I do think it will happen, as will happen is an independent Scotland, and that will not be a dream but a cause of self determination.

[Tullywho]

Thanks for a beautiful clip. You obviously have a sense of which pictures enhance which song. You keep posting, and I'll keep downloading.  Deal? You're doing a great job.

[AryanScot]

God, i miss my country. Been in London for 6 months, it's an immigrant infested, communist ridden hell hole. Nothing beats Scotland the Brave, Scotland The Beautiful, land of the Pict, land of the Celt.

With a song called Blood and Soil and an Album called Strength Through Joy, i knew the Skids and Stuart Adamson had a lot more than the average band. I used to have Rarities II, but i lost it with an old girlfriend. I don't miss her, but i do miss the album.

[andrewjcraig]

Careful, "AryanScot". Stuart wasn't keen on racism. Have you ever listened to Beautiful People?

[AryanScot]

Where did i mention race? This is OUR country. If native British flooded India to the extent where we consisted 1/6th of the entire population - the Indians would not be best pleased - and rightly so.

We have AT LEAST 12MILLION immigrants in this country. We are BURSTING at the seams!

This isn't about the childish act of hating other races, it's about what is best for the natives. We are a small island.

[andrewjcraig]

Britain did flood into India and ruled it for a couple of hundred years!

Scotland is the land of all its people, including the shopkeepers in Tarbert on Harris who are trilingual in English, Urdu and Gaelic.

[AryanScot]

Incorrect. They flooded it with oppressive and barbarous armies. Scotland is the land of the Scottish. If they're trilingual, good for them. Learning foreign languages is a wise pastime. However, if they are Indian, they are Indian. Not Scottish. They should not own Scottish property, Scottish business, or have places in Scottish educational establishment's before the Scottish people have taken their places.

[andrewjcraig]

The children at the shop in Tarbert were born in Scotland. They're speak English, Gaelic and Urdu, and they have brown skin, and they're as Scottish as you or Stuart Adamson or Bruce Watson (born in England and Canada respectively).

[AryanScot]

I don't care what they speak. They don't have Scottish blood in their veins, therefore they are not Scottish. Where you are born makes no difference. Stuart Adamson and Bruce Watson (to use examples) are of the indigenous race of these islands - Germanic. If one of these 'children' happen to have some white parentage or grandparentage, then that is worse, it makes them mungrel and as a result they are stuck in purgatory with no identity.

[andrewjcraig]

@AryanScot You think the indigenous race of these islands is Germanic? But the Celts were here before the Germanic Danes, Angles and Saxons. There were no Germanic people in these islands before the Romans left. And what about the Normans? Face it -- we're all mixed up. And, to crown your ignorance, you don't seem to know that the Aryans originated in India!

[AryanScot]

@andrewjcraig The Celts are racially Germanic. The Picts and other Brythonic speaking tribes that inhabitted these islands before the Roman Conquest had ancestors that done exactly the same as the future Angles, Saxons and Jutes - the came here from what is now Germany/Denmark/Austria. Normans were a tribe of Vikings (NorTHmen) that settled in Northern France. The genetically exactly the same race as the Germans and the Celts. ARYAN is the old (now over-politicized) word for Indo-European.

[andrewjcraig]

@AryanScot If the Picts and other Brythonic speaking tribes came from what's now Germany/Denmark/Austria, they weren't indigenous, were they?

[NiallatUTube]

@AryanScot yeah. Some people just don't figure where the region Normandy got its name.

For my part, born blue-eyed and fair in Ireland with the Nordic blood group A Rh neg.

We're all a hotch potch of peoples.

[TheOpenmind7]

[ronnoten]

for the record, stuart was born in england.

[DoobyMaster]

Simply brilliant, the man was a genius and i'm glad they were underated because people who like their stuff do so for the right reasons - the music.

[n8tureboy]

@DoobyMaster

Agreed! It's all about the music isn't it, nothing else.

Brilliant music by brilliant musicians.

[TheOpenmind7]

@n8tureboy yes exactly x.

[DannyelBonJovi]

[auto4union]

Stuart was such an underrated guitarist!Believe me!As a player myself I rate him up with the best!

[bcno1fan]

Celtic Dreams it says it all for me Ive always love this song and when i heard it on No Place Like Home i thought it was amazing. A great song

[DanPat121]

Nicely done video Dany...was the shot @ 0:16 O'Brien Castle on the Cliffs of Moher?

[Danymailand]

Thanks DanPat, yes i think is O'Brien Castle, but i'm not sure..

[bradyirishguy]

Thanks, my favourite song from Rarities, I love at the end when it really starts to rock! Its like...a...Scottish...Free Bird!

[GOLLYSKYWOOD]

If you listen to the structure of the lyrics to this song, it is in two pieces, and sounds like it could have been a demo for "Into the Fire" and "Comes a Time", from the "No Place Like Home" album. "Into the Fire" has one of the finest outros of any Big Country track.

Sadly this is currently not on this site. Can anyone rectify this, and post this great track?

[asilice]

Thanks for all the good stuff by Big Country. Thanks for posting. Long live the Scots, B.C.!

[batstang1]

I've been listening to BC since high school and its such a treat to hear songs I hadn't hear in many years.

[pdoglarsen]

[alexzulu1969]

greetings from a chilean fan

[250GPLOVER]

Another great video. And song from the best. Well done, Thx for posting.

[Danymailand]

Thx to you :-)

[isabellle87]

Danymailand, how do you manage to make so beautiful videos !!!and find so many unknown music from BC.They were so fantastic !!!

[Danymailand]

Grazie Isabellle! Sei molto gentile! Non è facile fare video dei BC perché non trovano molte loro foto, e allora si rischia di farli tutti uguali..

Per quanto riguarda la musica, mi piace condividere brani che non ci sono già su youtube :-)

[HumGuitar]

Whas all of that just one song?

[Danymailand]

Just one song :-)

[HumGuitar]

Thanks a million. I'd love to see and hear more if you have a chance. I haven't heard any of the rarities lp's. I'd really like to hear some of the obscure covers that they've done. Wow, as I'm typing this song really started to rock! Freaking awesome! Thanks. I love the slow beautiful ones, but no-one can rock like Big Country!

[stayalive378]

Thanks for this Danymailand, had never heard it before. :D

[Danymailand]
