Big Country

[Ghengis Chron]

Anyone heard of this 80's Scottish group? The lead singer commited suicide in Hawaii a few years ago, but I just got into their music and really like it. I'm normally not one for 80's pop/rock but these are guys talented.

Yeah, they were my first ever gig way back in 1989. They made some great music back then. I always prefered them to Runrig. I love that song Fields of Fire.

I guess you're from Scotland? I have relatives from Stirling. Never been 'cross the pond but I'm definitely trying to make a trip over there sometime soon.

Yes, that is a Scottish flag in my profile :)

You are welcome to Scotland, it is a very beautiful and friendly country. Stirling is near Edinburgh which is a great city. Come visit, but I don't recommend that you wear tartan trousers as everyone will laugh at you, look at those stupid American tourists they will say:D

RIP Stuart Adamson
