Stu you are legend, and well done to these guys in the crowd. One of the greatest crowd of fans I have seen. Germany you rock !!

[auto4union]

Ye gotta love those German audiences ! Been watching a few from this gig ! Peace Ye`All !!

[vetb882]

1 hit poster is an idiot. If not for U2, THIS band would be the greatest Gen X New Wave band. RIP Stuart, you were a musical warrior, I can see you running up a hill in your kilt, bagpipes blaring and off to fight some great battle. Thank you for being, than you for your music. :-)

[attachmanatee1221]

classic.  a motherfuckin' classic

[jmy280]

[holly007abl]

MUFC

[woodyfurball]

@holly007abl I just cried, like a man! we lost a warrior in Musical sense! the coont was more musically genuis than an Ipod!

I 1st seen this band way back in the late seventies/early eighties for FREE in "Larks In The Park" when bands would play free in Sefton Park, Liverpool. My girlfriend took me as she was really into them. After that day I've been listenening to them ever since! Very Underated!

[noobsrulejjl]

[BeardMadam]

stuart adamson..r.i.p,  sadly missed

[koky5150]

You don't have to do something that "counts" just do something that matters to you!

[jimfin12]

God what a waste of a life.He was awesome.What actually happened to Stuart Adamson?I heard he got 15 years sobriety and then broke out again and it was around that time he died.What year did he die?

[BeardMadam]

@jimfin12 Stuart passed away in 2001.

[MrPhilroo123]

they still mean something now, in 2011, look at the dancers in the rain, enjoyment, pure , i loved em then, love em more now. At the time i always wondered why other shite bands got on telly more coz no-one was more on it, especially live than big country.Ask anyone who saw them blow bowie away live at wembley.

[jaselev1]

Big Country have gave me so much enjoyment thru the yrs.lost count how many times stuarts guitar has made my hair on the back of my neck stand up.thanks mate.R.I.P

[aprilglaspieable]

What sort of dickweed would you have to be to dislike this video?

[MrBadchoice101]

nice solo

[THESEXI3STMAN]

nice playback

[God4Dunoon]

the sound engineer does .. not get enough credit

[Rs1Kvist]

Some songs remains as fresh as when you heard them for the first time, - this is one of them! Seems like the lads have a blast on stage ;-)

[adamcpf]

truly wonderful memories!love it!Peace

[parysad]

cuuudo,wiedziałem,że oni są mocni,ale że aż tak? niesamowite!!! i mamy do tego jeszcze pana Marka Brzezickiego-polski akcencik! kiedy koncert w Polsce?

[robjohn584234]

Awesome version of this song. Does anyone know if it has ever been released on CD?

[Riffsen]

Best gig I ever attended! July 22, 1995 - there was a huge thunder storm and heavy rains in the region causing only in a small city nearby damages of 40million DMarks (20Mio€:)

Stuart R.I.P.

[JoelDres]

The most original band of my generation. Their music and lyrics unmatched anywhere else in music history. 

[ScooterManDan1]

pure class r.i.p

[theHondaFteam]

If you don't like this, I don't like you

[TheSTAZZ69]

[Cigaro1887]

Holy fuck Larry Bird playing guitar? LMFAO

[wullieready]

[backfrontdoorman]

Fantastic live performance by a so underated band but they have there legions of fans and will always be remembered. And left there mark in music.

[mjtf1113]

One of the best songs...ever

[mgp288]

this is easily my favorite version of the song

[wullieready]

i mind the jams in brig o allan hall pre skids. rock on

[JFLD02186]

I love this...& then sad...then HAPPY!!! Stu was the real McCoy

[mikedrewmack]

Look how happy stu was!

[vo0sto0]

Great band!Awesome public!Fantastic Weather!

[ynyslochtyn]

Truly awsome

[tearlach45]

Look at the hun in the front row with the missin teeth.

[dolbis2]

I bet stuart drank tennents lager

[trogedon]

I had the album back in the day etc and loved this song...but most of their other music was boring middle of the road crap compared with this.

[Ask4lifeskills]

One of my all time favourite bands. Shine on Stuart,

[coolyjojo]

I'm sure most bands would pack up and go in doors. Big Country have the Scottish spirit. Rain, Snow, Hurricanes don't bother them. OH no.

[aarlevanbram]

Big Country rides again!

[searchlight18]

@aarlevanbram There's something about this song.I had it on vinyl when it came out.Play Loud!!...

[Mr3wbc]

R.I.P. Stuart. You were such a brilliant singer.

[brownson1970]

they were a fantastic live band

shine on stuart adamson

[npj192002]

an absolutely amazing live performance...wow....it's so sad that Stuart is gone...

[cannae007]

Stevenesq and RickyDicky100,got the DVD of this gig from play.com :-)

[i4bc]

i,ve been to see my idols BC many many times..but hell did i miss this one...seeing peeps dancing in the rain and and really enjoying themselves..Magic !!!...that,s what BC,s music is all about

[UpcomingJedi]

the signature sound(s) just aren't in this one.  Sounds really off key at the beginning.

[KeinUndApfel]

Yes, I was there. "Das Fest" in Karlsruhe, Germany, 1995-07-22. First it was a hot saturday afternoon and then it started to rain and rain and rain. I don't remember wether or when the rain stopped this evening, but the great open-air-concert of Big Country semed to be a neverending party, despite of the rain!

[nobbiedog]

why did he kill himself,looks great here..just never will understand

[madeinmanchesterr]

seems like festivals weren't about killing one another back in the 90's hahaha

[ashmiles]

Bought a little tear to my eye. They were enjoying the whole thing, the crowd were really smiling the weather was f*cking awful. Utterly out of this universe.

[TheBrigBhoy]

RIP Stuart. You brought happiness to milions and still do.

[janea57]

Fantastic version of this. They were just fantastic live.

[mattyg3838]

Everyone loved him! Look at him in the crowd hugging everyone!!! Amazing man! Watch over all of us, my friend!

[griffinmpable]

people in europe know how to party. you go to a concert in america and it starts raining everyone starts turning into snails underneath umbrellas. these germans are just having the time of their lives

[nob15]

best live band i've ever seen 2 date

[youuseus]

The Scottish Rock !

[kuramaya]

[kuramaya]

[estrepa]

[minka75]

[rashiehill]

[jcarchia1]

God Bless Stuart, your the man

[BC4ever68]

Saw them live in 1993.Great! The best I ever saw.Listen Big Country every day.

A day without BC is a lost day. STAY ALIVE !

[hawkeyfam3]

Thank you big country for writing such a great song. The 80's will live in my heart forever.

[nugsmama]

OMG Stuart looks so happy!! I so wish I had seen this band live, they were absolutely fantastic!! We miss you Stuart R.I.P pal xx

[burguiman]

Que som legal, sorte de quem pode ver ao vivo

Isso é que é amor pela banda, puta chuva + ninguem foi embora

Parecia uma piscina + tava tudo ok pros fâns

[burguiman]

Que som legal, sorte de quem pode ver ao vivo

[gbanks454]

66 thousand views? fuck you world, this is the greatest band that ever lived!

[simonofthedissenters]

Love Big Country...instantly recognisable sound...couldn't be anyone else...the mark of a truly great artist (s). The excitement on this is sooo tangible...takes me back to when I first heard them...happy days!!

[xlxmxcx345]

lol creepy guy on left 3:32

[kc5cxu]

Hi dose anybody know how Stuart died?

[old13cfrwjock]

Song still holds up....GREAT tune!

[sgtwilkosbarmyarmy]

In a Big Country dreams stay with you...........Stuart, you will always be the man, a musical legend never to be forgot!! Fields of fire!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Seanbo88]

Take it back. Great everything. haha

[Seanbo88]

Great drummer

[kittyroosky]

Damm...these were talented and terrific artists! It still grieves me that he died so tragically...such a loss. Big Country never got the appreciation they deserved. Hopefully, they will always be remembered for their true talent. That is far better than being just a hot, brief trend.  Oh, and I just love the steam coming off his back!

[kc5cxu]

Hi what year was this thay look older but still play grate.

[andmelbre]

@kc5cxu Uhhh, it says 1995 in the title.

[toadiesrule]

i think 1 of the most underrated bands ss haters but this is real music

[jimshady13]

@toadiesrule couldnt agree more, Fuck Bono and U2, Stu and Big Country all the way. Im 17, wasnt around in thier time, but i really wish i was. :/

[dartmoordog]

@jimshady13 I am lucky mate, I am 52 years old and saw them live....AWSOME.

[jimshady13]

@dartmoordog aaaaah :) Jealous, i cant see anything as good as big country coming around for my generation.

[dartmoordog]

@jimshady13

[snoopz2004]

Saw Big Country a couple of times, last time was at Knebworth when they were one of Queens support acts, they were a great band love their music still !!!!

[flowrpowrlovechild]

When I first heard this as a teen, I was blown away. It was so different and unlike any genre I had experienced. This makes me feel so young and untouchable like it did when I first heard my heartbeat almost louder than the drums. Does that make me a geek? who cares, I just got happy! Time is so fleeting, enjoy it you youngsters! Make it COUNT! Do something that is gonna MATTER! I'm praying for all our youth, I know things are tough on you guys. Need advice? Drop by my channel! Peace and luv

[God4Dunoon]

@flowrpowrlovechild I dont need advice want some wisdom :) its lacking in this world 

[dave62x]

this video is excellent. the sound is very good. i guess my brand new head phones make a difference too.

[Arturo82001]

USA 1 - 0 ALG

BOO-YAH!

'IN A BIG COUNTRY - DREAMS STAY WITH YOU'

'COME OUT SCREAMING'

[oldiesforever51]

no words are good enough to describe this guys and what they are standing for....

[PicoGigaMan]

Wow! Killer performance!!! They gave it there all.

[damian1983ar]

amazing!!!

[prsfrank]

Forgot how good Big Country where live RIP Stuart

[nibornna]

@prsfrank i don't really know this band, but i like this song. so could you tell me wich one Stuart is, and why he is dead? thanks!!!

[prsfrank]

@nibornna Lead Singer and guitar player and suicide

[nibornna]

@prsfrank that suck's:( did he have a drug or drinking problem?

[jimshady13]

@nibornna Depression. Was found to be drunk when he strangled himself.

[nibornna]

@jimshady13 that's really to bad, thank's for the info!!! peace!!

[kezman1974]

For me, this is so much better than the studio version. The sound seems so natural and raw and not produced. Absolutely F*****G love it.

[JFLD02186]

this is too rock, the dude gives out hugs, very cool...see radiohead @ Pinkpop, Tom Yorke wears a yellow mac in the rain for the crowd...not outfit for rockin...I loved this guy above....very sad, seems very genuine/real...hurts sometimes...beautiful person...I love music & people who make music....SHHHHA!

[MrPurplehouse]

My dad carried stuarts guitar around for him for quite along time.

[aarlevanbram]

@MrPurplehouse tell us more please.

[n8tureboy]

I can't think of any band that would show the fans the appreciation that Stu did. I get the feeling that these guys are genuine, not your typical egotistical rock musicians at all. You can tell that really enjoy doing what they do, and the crowds are always so enthusiastic.

[tokaijazz]

great band. sadly missed.

[woodyfurball]

Bruccccccccccccccccccce, so take that look of Fear it does`nt fit you

[clarebow1]

one of the best bands i have ever seen!! The storm tour was brilliant.

[rickydicky100]

what a concert,audience up to their knees in water and what a show Big Country put on, is there a DVD of this performance?

[aarlevanbram]

Gone but not forgotten!!

[stevenesq]

What a shame he's gone such a great voice would love to have seen them live today . Anyone know where i can get this whole show on dvd? respect to all.

[braveinoz]

i cried watching this awsome and so missed

[dylconnor]

[FOXACHECK]

are they dancing in a foot of water?

[peetief]

good great terrific wonderful phenomenal awesome fantastic moving gratifying exciting amazing,

[ejgiv]

The really got wet there but looks like they put on a helluva show.

[bigworld3001]

Feed the people...stay alive!!! You are still missed to this day.

[prestwoodwolf]

@bigworld3001 off the b side of Band Aid if memory serves me correctly?

[bigworld3001]

@prestwoodwolf i believe you are correct.

[felixmyballs]

@bigworld3001 - How many people know that bit of the song but don't know that was him that said that on the Band AId track I wonder.......

[bigworld3001]

@felixmyballs Indeed!!! But we know ;>)

[sailintonothing]

One word .. Awesome...

[whitejmw]

Great band - great musicians - all round top notch.

[RadicePaolo]

Grandi

[BigBearVids]

why can we never see the drum solo that starts this song..? sounds like an over dub→ anyone know if he actually plays that ALL at once- ?

[darintaylor79]

Best live performance under shitty weather conditions? I think so.

[weeboo22]

Not long after I was born. Been listning to it since i can remember and still love it <3

[whitejmw]

Without a doubt one of the greatest bands to ever take to the stage.

Great post - Thx Skapaul69

[FireFox516]

Holy frick, that was one of the coolest live performances I've ever seen.

[cerasodamaniaco1]

This is my own personal anthem its been since I remember back in the early 80's.

[csim182]

Met Mark on Friday in Newcastle when he played for from the jam my mate dj's between each set and all i can say is what a true GENTLEMAN and a fantastic drummer

[pendragon418]

...still one of the most amazing live performances of all time.

[mrcolinraycyrus]

WE STILL MISS U STU,,,,,,,,,,,,REST IN PEACE MATE.fuckin hell his death still brings tears to my eyes,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,so so sad

[thebigmanism]

whend they get the monkey.... wtf.... damn

[tomeeeee1]

My asian wife always tells me to quiet down when i sing along to bc.  I always yell, "Huh, shugh!!" And she says, what is up with, "Huk, shu;lk"!!!!" Its a white thing baby.lol

[DennisFranz]

You gotta SCREAM to this song, SHOUT !

[dartmoordog]

"I never took the smile away from anybodies face" You certainly put a smile on mine, and still do.

Stuard Adamson - True legend, true gentleman - RIP

[mcs1hr]

These guys were very, very good live. I saw the 95 gig at the Fleadh in Finsbury Park. Sadly my last BC concert. I'm still sad when I think about poor Stuart.

[aarlevanbram]

Dr. robocle or what is his nickname?

[BC1000stars]

Dr. Roboto

[wrathchild11]

fucking amazing drumming!!!!!!!

[EmotionPlus]

Skill.

[stephenhayesuk]

pedals. AND skill

[EmotionPlus]

Jeez feling old here, saw them so many times. Oh yes and that fickle shite band called, erm, erm, U2 saw them also, then at that age I thought they were quite good also, just for a while :o) just for a brief while........

[tyeistops]

This is what it's all about...listening, watching, experiencing! Total perfection; really missing those times!

[woodyfurball]

OASIS, FFS who the FOOK are they, Big Country just played real music oasis are more famous for the 2 girlie brothers dramas than there shit music, on yirself Stuart

[NickMotown]

This is starting to become my favorite song, out of all styles of music. A "big" statement....but true

[kingston0708]

restless natives got me into big country, so thank fuck for restless natives

[valor01]

Awesome song, love the way it sounds

[dartmoordog]

Watch this OASIS....You are shite compared to BC.

[roberhau]

As an American who grew up in the 80's with a lot of "stale" music, this band literally struck a cord with me. Maybe the most underated ROCK band in history with a rythem section comparable to Entwhistle and Moon of The Who. Great Stuff!!
