Very nice job. The delay guitar work is excellent, and the mix / arrangement is spot on. Love it when the big chords kick in too. I was lucky enough to see Big Country twice back in the day and they were a very good band. You've done a great cover of this (I think) underrated song.

Lovely job Stuart.  Liked Adamson's work with the Skids but always preferred Big Country.  You really captured the feel of the original - great to hear it again.

I saw this post on my phone a couple of days ago, only now I've got to listen.

I thought I'd recognise this, but I don't really.  No matter, I really like what you've done.  Great drift-away song. Some cracking guitar sounds.

I was always more on the Skids side of the debate myself; Of One Skin, TV Stars.  Into the Valley.  Sos I never really owned a lot of Big Country.

Did I miss something?  Is he no longer with us.  Shame if so.

I've always loved this song, and never thought it got the recognition it fully deserved.

Great to hear such a cracking cover of it, you really did capture the essence of the original, particularly with the guitar sound.

Really well done on this!
