BIG COUNTRY LIVE FIELDS OF FIRE 1995

[Prodboy1690]

Gone but not forgotten!

[nengstro]

Stu and Bruce are the Glenn and KK of folk music....

[ardyne3]

Cry like a baby ... floods of tears, what a cracking guy, and getting those people on stage the way he did was his pleasure. Gent Stu, miss ya

[Nigelxman]

God love Stuart Adamson.  What a truly beautiful human being, not to mention one of the most unsung/unheralded songwriters and musicians ever to walk the earth. It really angers me that Big Country didn't become as big as U2 in America. It makes no fucking sense.

[blertoly]

Amazing vid link as usual Paul.

Fantastic video my mate

[happystudio1]

rip stewie ....you wre a beut!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[awryhighlander]

i rememeber seeing them play accoustic on edinburgh high street opening a music shop, maybe hmv, was long time ago, a band that were scottish and sounded scottish

[mrbassman25]

@awryhighlander

there are thousands of scottish scottish sounding bands !!!! lol

[MilitaryArcade]

@mrbassman25 Nothing like this though!

[mrbassman25]

@MilitaryArcade

yeah ok, i guess ur right my friend.... these guys were so unique and outstanding !! (i dont use that term lightly.

[awryhighlander]

@mrbassman25 thousands? this was a unique sounding band, yes you can cast up travis, hipsway, garbage, texas, but this was a big band with a big identity, unless you start throwing out jimmy shand you on a loser

[awryhighlander]

@awryhighlander oh forgot about simple minds midge ure deacon blue etc

[mrbassman25]

@awryhighlander

have you never listened to the popular ceilidh scene ? traditional scottish bands that maybe arent as widely known as these guys, who are massively inspired by such bands.

[MrGaserf]

45 now first album i ever got ,and the music is still amazing .how could you ever pick ur favourite track from all stuarts done what a loss

[mildomcduff]

A shining eye will never cry... lemme think again, Stu.... I miss youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

[RManFlint]

RIP, Stuart.

The coolest part of the vid is that Stuart doesn't pick the hottest chicks. He picked the girls who would get the biggest kick out of being on stage with Big Country.

God bless you, Stuart. You're missed.

[MadameHelgasFolly]

Man, I love being Scottish sometimes... :D

[cavanking]

Best version ever. God bless ye Mr Adamson

[suprbert]

Most underrated band of all time. "A house on fire knows no shame..." F** genius.

[222fox1]

One of the best bands of all time !!!! :))))

[RetroArtist1]

The greatest live band in the world! Totally in touch with their audience. I would trade all of the live concerts I've seen in my lifetime to have seen them live in the summer of 1984 when I graduated and these guys ruled the new wave airwaves! Rest in peace Stuart ... your music lives on and it is your legacy.

[JAIstarkillerkid]

They were always criticized (at least across the pond here in the culturally lame U.S.) for always sounding the same.

But, I swear, everytime I come across another live version of the same song, it is attacked from a completely different angle. RIP Stuart!

[theholyfather1]

EPIC

[theholyfather1]

Brings a lump to my throat to see them here, what a fucking band and what a fucking guitarist Stuart was !!. Just reading through all the comments posted here I see that so many people loved Big Country very much , and still do. I saw them twic, INCREDIBLE

[kymcey1]

[NIGATAKAETU]

I am impressed in now and shed tears and listen to this video.

The too early death of great artist "Stewart Adamson" is really precious.

skapaul69, thank you.

私は今、感動して涙を流し、このビデオを拝聴しています。

偉大なアーティスト「スチュワートアダムソン」の早すぎた死は本­当に惜しいです。

skapaul69さん、ありがとう。

[jcarchia1]

This guy has to be one of the most underrated guitarists of all time. This song is sick.

[BroJohnnyMac]

One of the best live band EVER!!

[miasmiles]

Do agree in all parts! Stuart at his peak!

[FranBro]

[BC4ever68]

@FranBro

This is from the DVD - LIVE IN GERMANY ´95 -

Include - DAS FEST - and - VOODOO LOUNGE -

And to all big Country fans all over the world - STAY ALIVE

[thegunny1]

What a waste min

[tabber87]

I've just recently gotten into Big Country. I think they're one of the most shamefully underrated bands of the 1980s. Stuart Adamson seemed like a really down-to-earth, unpretentious guy. It's too bad things went downhill for him...

[TerenceHill24]

@tabber87

My story is exactly as yours. A week ago I found the old albums in my fathers CD collection. So I listened to them and was stunned. Pretty unique sound, Stuart seems such a cool and nice guy. Shame he is dead and their music is forgotten.

[ipdillon]

UNREAL - can't even imagine how much fun it would have been to join the band on stage. 

[gsm1881]

It was criminal that this band was not HUGE. Whoever is responsible for that , whether the media or their PR or management, should be strung up!!!

[marcluc1988]

Most bands sound worse live but sound great.

[meloapa]

I still miss these guys.

[leiken26]

RIp Stuart

[laxbroo27]

One of the BEST live shows I've seen!!!! Energy in the crowd and on stage!! That's what makes a great band!!! God I miss them!!!!

[weegussieboy]

think you,ll like this babe

[jimshady13]

what i would give to of been there, mind you i would only of been 2,

[louisasayscoolbeans]

one person was stunned so much by the epicness, they accidentally hit dislike.

[vandal2k6]

Does anyone knoe the name of the song he plays in the middle? I know one of them is Wild Mountain Thyme but there's another just before that.

[cuddlybear47]

Such a fantastic band and such a tragic loss to music the day Stuart died.

[gordondeprest]

at 2:38....I love seeing Tony Butler banging out the rythym like no one can...awesome moment for a great effin band ! Love this song, love this version and this group...too bad American radio had their thumbs up their arses.

[1unsung]

OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much for sharing. Unstoppable energy, like being hit and held down by a massive wall of sensational noise. Brilliant, just brilliant.

[dartmoordog]

Anyone, but anyone with an ounce of appreciation for modern music and performance can fail to be impresed with this....AWSOME.

[dartmoordog]

There was Big Country.....Then there are the rest!

[Adamson4ever]

Awesome video,Stuart was the ultimate guitar hero and gentleman.Had the great honour of spending the day with him before a gig in Redcar April 83.Memories never to be forgotten,my kids are Big Country fans now,the greatest Scottish musician ever.God bless Stuart Adamson

[filo6777]

[rickydicky100]

[10zoedog]

If they had been at live aid they would have been as big as U2......Stuart will always live forever in out hearts ... "Shout"

[cavanking]

[whitejmw]

Bloody class act Big Country - only saw them once in the early 80's, but it's a stand out amongst the bands I've seen. Loved them since 'The Crossing'. Stuart is sadly missed - they could have rocked on in original format for years to come.

[CoolZiggy]

I saw them in the early 90's in Leeds. They were brilliant! What a sad loss.

[tfp137]

listening to there songs many good memories and some sad ones, the 80s where fab still the best live band i have seen. sad loss r.i.p

[dartmoordog]

I saw BC around 84ish, I jumped around like a lunatic then. I am 52 and I still jump around like a lunatic when I hear this.....Priceless!
