Big Country's last studio album, "Driving To Damascus", combined all the elements that originally elevated the band into the charts in the mid-Eighties. These, along with a new found stylistic diversity stemming from Stuart Adamson's relocation to Nashville in 1997 where he immersed himself in the musical community and scene. "Its the first time I've ever lived in a totally creative community" he commented "and the first time I have ever co-written with other artists". In 1999 Stuart (who was spiritual but not religious), played signature guitar on Randy Stonehill's No 1 Christian record The Face of God, sang on Darryl Scott's messed up bluegrass record and then wrote with Texan out and out country singer Christie Sutherland.

"Fields of Fire" and "Wonderland" reached #52 and #86, respectively, in the U.S. however, Big Country were all over the British charts. so yeah, one hit in the U.S., but international fame. i'll take the latter any day. cheers... Spacey Modern Celtic Rock | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Lost Patrol performed by Big Country Absolutely loved the way Stuart Adamson and the rest of Big Country were able to make their music sound "celtic", ie. having their guitars tuned and modulated to sound similar to highland bagpipes. Miss their music. Bagpipes | Reviewer: Liz ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country Hey Nathan, those aren't bagpipes. That's the guitar! which only goes to show how original and creative they really are. I'd even go as far as to say that they're one of the best bands of all times... yeah, I said it. BEST BAND EVER. Big Country | Reviewer: shap ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country I first heard this song in a snowboard video. I thought that is one of the greatest songs ive ever heard. Now every time i go out skiing or snowboarding i put this song on to pump me up!!. (You can find me skiing on you tube jshapley94 is my name) Wonderful Band - Big Country | Reviewer: victoria ------ About the song Wonderland performed by Big Country I am re-visiting this band of my youth. Even after all these years they are still inspiring and uplifting with the soaring upward movement of the sound of their music and their honest lyrics. Big Country has always been an under-considered treasure. I am still deeply, deeply saddened by the death of Adamson and wonder why such an attractive father, gifted singer, writer and appealing performer would think he had so little reason to continue living. One of the best bands to EVER come out of the 80's | Reviewer: Kurt F. ------ About the song Harvest Home performed by Big Country The drums,the drums,the drums!!!!! Also, the driving bass, Stuarts voice and his signiture guitar sound make this song one of my all-time favorites. In fact, when I croak, this will be one of 3 songs played at my funeral. In a Big Country | Reviewer: wettoadlegs ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country I am 28 years old and heard In A Big Country for the first time last week. Let me tell yeah the song rocks and it brings a smile to my face because the lyrics are so positive, we need more positive things in songs instead of the depressing songs. Classic Rock. | Reviewer: Lee Chapa ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country When I was young, I was a sad kid. My parents didn't listen to rock. Then one day some high school teen was playing a song in his '67 Camero. I asked who was that singing? Apparently I was deprived, he said. Ever since then I've been listening to rock. All kinds. Why listen to sad songs? "In A Big Country" is one of those songs that make you want to sing. It makes your spirit fly. BIG COUNTRY. "ROCK ON!" The Great Seer Has Spoken | Reviewer: G ------ About the song All Fall Together performed by Big Country In 2011/12 The sun will burn brighter than man has seen. Man will be forced into the depths of the Earth. Those who survive will vibrate to a new concious of love and peace. Stuart Adamson was a seer who sang of his visions. See you on the other side brother. Peace and Love G Big country | Reviewer: Big R ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country my favourite song by big country fantastic, i know Stu adamson's daughter, she is just as talented as he is. R.I.P dude Bloody Amazing Song! | Reviewer: aimurray ------ About the song Just a Shadow performed by Big Country This song is Big Country at their absolute finest. It gives me chills to this day and is especially poignant considering Stuart Adamson's early and tragic death. You can really feel his pain in this song. I saw them in concert at their peak and they were unbelievable. WTF, why aren't there bands like Big Country anymore? RIP stuart | Reviewer: myself ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country Best live band ever. So underrated it's not even funny. These guys are class. Stuart, you are sorely missed. BTW-- It's an e-bow, not bagpipes. Please, if you liked In a Big Country, listen to the rest. It will blow your mind. Youtube's a good start. RIP Stu. Love you. Big Country Rock | Reviewer: kirsty-louise ------ About artist/band Big Country Big Country are an 80s Rock band who...well....rock my socks off. Still going after all these years and even after Stuart's passing. Kids should be weened on this stuff instead of mother's milk. I practically was. Still in the New Millenium | Reviewer: tejanotx@sbcglobal.net ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country This song has achieved grocery store status in the new millenium. It is one of those songs I have heard the chorus to forever but never knew the name of the song...and finally decided to investigate what in blazes this song sounded like from beginning to end. The chorus is catchy enough to remember, earning itself a place in the annals of elevator and grocery store songs you sort of remember..... I love this song! | Reviewer: Julia ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country This one of the greatest songs ever. Excellent music and fabulous lyrics - Big Country is bopth light and profound. One of my favorite songs, in fact, I'm listening to it right now Damn you Stuart | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song East Of Eden performed by Big Country Well we know that Stuart did eventually walk into the very depths of himself. Damn you Stuart. We all miss you. Just a Shadow | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Just a Shadow performed by Big Country If you moved to a differente country and to a small towm in Alabama, you can really understand the lyrics of this song....when you fell depressed and the place and country is not what you thought it would be at all...and if you have ideals and a real heart... in the past you helped a lot o people but now you have to start from zero...and people look at you like you are nothing... Sucker punch | Reviewer: lotusmaglite ------ About the song Just a Shadow performed by Big Country No, that's not a pun; this song is a sucker punch. It's beauty and hushed tones belie the violence and horror the lyrics express. Only at the end does the band tip its' hand, crashing forward with explosive anger, expressing the rage such violence should inspire in all of us. Simply brilliant. While The Crossing was an amazing album, and many feel The Seer was Big Country's peak, I always felt Steeltown was their best effort, largely due to songs like this one. the storm | Reviewer: mark thompson ------ About the song The Storm performed by Big Country STORM this song was one of those you had to here live i did on a number of occations i my self think this was the best.I bought an EBOW for my guitar just to learn this song.I will play and listern to Big Country to my end thanx stu.
