I cannot imagine, or empathize with you on what you were going through in regards to depression Stuart as i've never been down that road, however i have suffered from panic attacks (anxiety). Mental health is something that maybe back in 2000/2001 wasn't talked about much, but it's important people reach out. It can effect both men, and women, though it tends to be men that it's effecting allot more. If anyone reading this then reach out, and seek the help needed. R.I.P. Stuart Adamson, a legend of Scotland, and the world on the musical scale, and a kindhearted man.

When I studied in Oldenburg from 1996 to 2002, I watched the movie "Restless Natives" one night and I was so flashed by the music, expecially by "I will run for you". Never before music had such an impact on me. It took a while to find out what band made the soundtrack. It is tragic to see that Stuart obviously stayed in Oldenburg during that time.
@kanashiimurakamisan7 жыл бұрын
Stuart Adamson's tragic early death will always be a huge loss to both Skids & Big Country fans. I still frequently listen to both bands as I did as a youth many years ago. Their music easily stands the test of time. Stuart's lyrics with Big Country ooze sheer poetry. Their poignancy, scale of depth & symbolic imagery seems timeless! Both Stuart Adamson & Ian Curtis (latter vocalist with Joy Division), are right up there with the very best singer/songwriters of all time!

@@Swahy I would say it is because the bagpipes are jokingly seen as a loud obnoxious noise, and he probably felt that the comparison was more of a diss towards his playing rather than the reality of it being unique and intriguing. I love the bagpipes, so I definitely get how he felt insulted when the rest of the world insulted his culture for cheap laughs.
Mo gradhe, still beautiful at 42, face and soul
Wow! I was at that gig as well.
LEGEND!!!!!!!...SADLEY MISSED.

So sad, a tragic waste of a magnificent life, wish it could've been different. RIP.
One of a kind for sure, Godspeed stuart
The only way is to take their pain from them, and it just isn't that easy. I wish, like you, that it were. I'm sure he still had MUCH to offer music lovers, but the problem was likely that he felt the world didn't have much left to offer him.
Skids changed my musical trajectory.
never forgotten,rest easy pal
This makes me so sad
he was a massive talent, big shame, I re-discover the magic of big country every now and then. always enjoy it.
Quite the haunting interview, given how things turned out. Ah, Stuart.
I like his jumper
Good looking and talented guy. RIP
saying goodbye...never knowing when you'll see someone again...

I mean, after he answered the question. Looked down, away and a little sad (at least, that's my impression)
aww bless hard to see Stuart looking so rough
Man I miss him . . .
Look at my sweet baby!
You should just keep it simple and enjoy his music. We live in a culture that knows nothing about death and people really shouldn't be assuming anything. Ya know why? everyone has to throw in the two cents about his suicide when he made such beautiful music.

Well said Jon, Stuart left us a legacy many others could only imaine or dream, he gave us the Dream, God Bless
I'm not too familar with Stuart's stuff apart from In a big country but he seems like such a nice and down to earth fella. God rest him 🙏❤
What a straight funny man. Amazing man and band. Nobody's fault, but i wish he could have been saved from himself to live his life longer happy and content.
I wish there were a way to change the minds of anyone who is determined to take their own life...
"Were you afraid in Kosovo"... " No,i grew up in Scotland"... Brilliant
I really like him
"Aren't you afraid?" -"No, I grew up in Scotland, man."
He didn't seem depressed at all...
The Crossing album is STILL a staggering piece of work, I don't really care for anything else they've done, I can't lie, sorry. RIP Stu. Thanks for the interview.
YES I REMEMBER THEM,WAS IN TO THEM BEFORE BIG COUNTRY.
Stuart 😘
Really interesting interview
💖💖💖
Such a massive loss to Scotland

god rest ye stuarty.
Who'd've thought he would've been dead in roughly a year afterward?
Oldenburgh without the "h" please. The town is called "Oldenburg"! Stay alive...
“……you never know if you are going to see people again “ Painful irony.
Don't leavr your heart open..
How prophetic about what he is saying about the desire to reconnect with the part of life that he is missing out on! He would kill himself on the day his wife asked for a divorce and had begin to resume drinking again (after a decade of being sober). What a shame. A house of cards.

One card falls, so goes the others. A shaky foundation whereas the structure will collapse if one element is removed.

Actually without him there is no big country for me. Other guys good too however Stuart was the spirit of the band.
