I met Stuart in Brighton in the early 90s, he was such a lovely guy that my then girlfriend thought we were old friends. Which in a way we were. So sadly missed.
Ah, I love that story. He seems like a lovely guy. I’m 37 and recently came across big country, shocked when I googled their history. Can’t believe he felt he had to end his life. 😢 see seems the good hearted guys suffer the most. Lovely to know he was the gent he seems. Rest In peace. Won’t be long now and we’ll all be on the other side too. Must just be who’s scared to hell of it.
Thirteen valleys he has wandered for her love For he thinks he is the one that she dreams of But her bed was made elsewhere from the first day she got there Now he wanders thirteen valleys crying out Now he wanders thirteen valleys crying out It could have been me I said, It could have been me A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on Thirteen valleys she has gone since morning came Well she gave so much that only love remains But her lover is long gone with the money she sent on Now she wanders thirteen valleys crying out Now she wanders thirteen valleys crying out It could have been me I said, It could have been me A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on That broken heart will be forever and a lifetime That broken heart will try your love like none before And you may fight or you may run for what was fast is now undone A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on Thirteen valleys lying silent in the haze Filled with promises and spirits that we raised But the spirits all are ghosts of the ones we hurt the most And they wander thirteen valleys crying out And they wander thirteen valleys crying out It could have been me I said, It could have been me A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on It could have been me I said, It could have been me A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on That broken heart will be forever and a lifetime That broken heart will try your love like none before And you may fight or you may run for what was fast is now undone A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
The actual film clip was filmed in Australia, they did another couple here in Australia also then went back home. We were to see the band in brisbane Australia in 1984 stuart got lanrigintus from the world tour they were on . We were refunded our tickets in full. Such a shame i never got to see him in concert, they had such a great lot of great songs .. RIP Stuart..
I feel for you brudda - I got to see them twice in March of '84 here in the states - hate you missed 'em "Wonderland" was electric live & new @ those shows!

as with all Big Country songs, the more volume you give it, the better it feels and sounds!
Yeah defo a big country classic Stuart certainly had great talent
I love my Saturday nights, no longer the pubs and clubs of London, but here, a few beers, a big smile and a lot of tears
This song will always be linked to my first love. One of the nicests songs ever. RIP Stuart. Sensitive soals have no place in our world.
An 80’s hidden treasure!
I love when he sings, "it could have been me"
わたしの人生において一番リピートしている曲かもしれない
大好きな曲
My dads favourite song he died when I was 18 I hope I can play this one day 😢
i hope you can too, just play it and sing it as LOUDLY and with as much passion as you can as all Big Country songs deserve
Born on the same day as me , now 66 it’s seems so so wrong he’s gone
What amazing band Was Big Country one of the best In the 80/90
Born a fifer and i will die a fifer I wasn't into them back in they days but f... how wrong was I amazing band.
Thirteen valleys he has wandered for her love
For he thinks he is the one that she dreams of
But her bed was made elsewhere from the first day she got there
Now he wanders thirteen valleys crying out
Now he wanders thirteen valleys crying out
It could have been me
I said, It could have been me
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
Thirteen valleys she has gone since morning came
Well she gave so much that only love remains
But her lover is long gone with the money she sent on
Now she wanders thirteen valleys crying out
Now she wanders thirteen valleys crying out
It could have been me
I said, It could have been me
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
That broken heart will be forever and a lifetime
That broken heart will try your love like none before
And you may fight or you may run for what was fast is now undone
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
Thirteen valleys lying silent in the haze
Filled with promises and spirits that we raised
But the spirits all are ghosts of the ones we hurt the most
And they wander thirteen valleys crying out
And they wander thirteen valleys crying out
It could have been me
I said, It could have been me
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
It could have been me
I said, It could have been me
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
That broken heart will be forever and a lifetime
That broken heart will try your love like none before
And you may fight or you may run for what was fast is now undone
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
Un verdadero himno que llegan a l corazón. X siempre Big country
Increíble banda y poco conocida para muchos
What a voice, such a shame he's not hear
How I wish we could turn the clock back❤
An amazing tune; never knew that there was a video for it, thanks for sharing!
Glad you liked it!

That explains why the landscape looked so familiar. Big Country is always welcome in our big country..
I had a ticket for Melbourne, May 11, 1984. 😭 I’ve still got the ticket.

The Days When SAFETY RULES Did Not Matter
This was my favourite to sing in the grocery store, till I got warned I was a few decibels over the limit
Hurts a lot this one does
Where did this come from? I was a big fan of Big Country way back when, but how the hell did I miss this one?
There was a DVD of their greatest hits a couple of decades ago.
good
