    This track, based on an original idea from Jamie, was made into a full-length song on Bruce & Jamie's new EP with Thomas Kercheval (WKW): Hands Across The Ocean.
    It was also earlier used in the Big Country track: All Lay Down

    Bruce must have taken so many tips from Stuart. A truly underrated guitarist in his own right. Stuart and Bruce were the best guitar pairing to ever come out of Scotland.

    Folks.. Don't make the mistake of saying this track is typical "Big Country".. It isn't.
    It's Bruce Watson sound. 1/4 of Big Country... with a nod to the other 3/4's.
    All 4 members of the original Big Country had an effect on how BC sounded..
    Bruce has drawn on this and with his son has created a wonderful track..
    Meant to add.. Stuart was the "face" of Big Country but the other members, Bruce, Tony, and Mark should not be forgotten. They helped make Big Country an amazing band.

      I shaved my head 3 weeks ago. before I looked like Billy Idol, before that, I had hair to the middle of my back and a full beard and people crossed the street so they didn't walk by me. The great thing about being in your 50s is; doing what you want and telling people to go fuck themselves if they don't like it.

    Saludos watson desde México Soy su fans creo el numero uno de México. Gracias x su música creci con ella .. lleve una vida miserable lleve y su música m alentaba mucho . Cuando los escuche y vi x tv. In a big country m fascino y m encanto dese entonces nunca deje de escucharlos solamente compre un disco un azul muy bonito x cierto y estaban los cuatro. Nunca pude comprar otro suyo eran muy costosos. Pero estaba atento cuando sacaban canciones x que m grabe la voz de stuart. Era el sexenio muy decadente para mi. Pero cuando oía sus canciones m daban fuerzas . Ahora es diferente creci y deje la aficcion y malos hábitos escucho con nostalgia y alegría y tristeza sus canciones. Watson . Danos más canciones hay más talento. Muchos que se retiraron regresaron. Y ustedes sun siguen fuertes. Stuart se fue y nos dejó mucho legado. Gracias big country y esperamos más. Gracias. ..
