So many great memories listening to big country! My partner bought me the double cd/dvd Glasgow barrowlands '83 for xmas. last time I watched that was about 1990 on video cassette. It's still as raw and awesome today! Thanks for posting this excellent tune x

this is a mix of prairie and another roxy tune. really meshed up versions at that. cool...venerations
-
Still amazing!
-
@misterjoecool Right you are. I got "Stranded" and "Siren" mixed up.
-
@karlt10 Roxy a garage band??? That's a new one and frankly utter nonsense, which rather negates any argument you may have. Still, you like Big Country's version better - each to their own.
-
@egrorian1 Yeah, right.... Roxy Music sounds like a garage band that's been together for 2 months, and Jerico sounds like so many other weak-kneeded ballads of the day. At least Big Country's version has some life and soul to it.
-
Pretty weak version - the Roxy Music original is in a totally different class. Then Jerico did a pretty good cover version, that was far better than Big Country's effort.
-
Brillant version.

@pchazzzz Nah, Jerry Hall was on Siren, 1975.
Stranded was released in 1973 with 1973 Playmate of the Year, Marilyn Cole on the cover.

Definitely the best version - this song brings back fantastic memories!
