This song was in heavy rotation soon after it was released in 1982 – and it was their only US Top 40 hit single. But can you name another song by them?

    The story in wiki made it sound like he had a severe drinking problem, and eventually drank himself to death – he was found dead in a hotel room.

    I could name pretty much all of them. I have been a huge BC fan since their very first album. Sadly I never got to see them play live. Great sound, good songwriting. But Stuart Adamson had his demons. They’ve toured off and on since his death, one time with The Alarm’s Mike Peters and they’ve released one studio album since then, but obviously they’re not the same.
