Lyrics & Music: Stuart Adamson
   
This comes from the first Big Country when Pete Wishart (now with Runrig), Alan Wishart (bass) and Clive Parker (drums) were playing in our “wall of sound” band. This is the band that got thrown off the Alice Cooper tour for being too weird. This is the version done with Tony and Mark and I think it was used in the movie “Against All Odds”. — Stuart Adamson, Restless Natives & Rarities liner notes



‘Balcony’ is track 4 on the soundtrack to the motion picture ‘Against All Odds’ (1984) 3:59
