Bin leider erst vor 3 Jahren auf diese großartige Band aufmerksam geworden. Sehr schade, dass der Sänger Stuart so früh verstarb. Ich hätte so gerne ein Konzert mit ihm und seiner Band besucht.
Goosebumps watching this. BC were the first band I ever saw live as a teenager on this tour. I even met them outside the Royal Court Theatre in Liverpool before the gig. It was a proper OMG moment meeting them all and they were "the" coolest guys ever. Stuart really was something else, amazing guitarist, songwriter and his lyrics are pure poetry that should be written in stone for future generations to appreciate. Thanks for sharing this video and much love to all BC fans out there. #stayalive
I was thirteen and listened to this live on the radio and it blew my mind. It occurs to me if I had not done that, I might not be sitting here right now, at the other end of the world. It created a chain of events that led me here. Huh.
This performance captures everything that was great about music of this time. Serious and beautiful and uplifting all at once. These artists poured so much of their energy into the audience. Big Country wrote and performed so beautifully. Truly appreciate this upload.

Thanks a million for posting. Had this on cassette... Know every note and word played it so much.., great to see the video as never got to before.... Used to picture it as open air festival setting oddly enough....BC were and remain my favourite band.... So much potential that i feel was never realised. Best live band i ever seen. Loved Stuart. Absolute artist. The other three lads are awesome musicians too.
Right! See my livevideos from big country in ostend in 2022. Marck gave me his artistpass to watch the show on stage. I thanked him for making the Love album so special with his drumming. He told many stories about the recording sessions too😊
18 years old, had a curfew so had to be back in at 11 on a saturday. Tuned into this German channel. Had the VCR running before the first chorus and rewatched that old betamax to shreds. So nice to get reacquainted now. And that by a fellow Belgian I suspect?
The were always good.. but this gig in Germany .. the sound the vocals were on a different level.. they had a big following in Deutschland esp the niederhien nordwestfahlen.. be sure about that
Btw, if you like that piece of music, then you'll find your own favourite rendition of it. 3 of mine are from iona brown, nicola benedetti, and Julia hwang (all found on here). Enjoy.

Stuart really was a force of nature. Fantastic band, that bassist is amazing. Hope you found peace Stuart 💙 Thanks for the music, Sir.
What a song. Rip Stuart. Our hero. The last king of Scotland. Must have been some gig there in Berlin ☘️

RIP Big Man, Stay Alive
That was great. Stuart's voice was in shape, hitting the high notes.

Mark Brzezicki is a large part of what made the band "the Cult" so great. Timekeeping and tasteful appropriate fills that add to the arrangement

Most rocking version of Where the Rose is Sown, ever!
Thanks for posting this. Surprisingly great audio quality, especially with headphones
Incredible band. Miss that guy.
Great Show! I saw it live on german television back in the days.
