From "A Certain Chemistry" (page 3)

Q - What does Big Country mean?

Stuart:

"I think group names are always about six months after the fact. Somebody will have a great explanation for why the group's called this or that. At the time I think it just implied a sense of vastness, open spaces. A sense of new discovery. A sense of ambition."

Tony:

"The band means more to me than the name. The band is something I've been looking for all my musical career. I believe in the right combination and this is the right combination."

Bruce:

"Big Country? It doesna mean anything. You canna describe it which is quite good. It's not as if it's something like Eddie and the Hot Rods It's not a flash-type name. I suppose it could be taken any way."

Mark:

"Big Country's my life at the moment. My drums are my life and they work for Big Country...I know it's a completely amazing band and this band should definately see it through to the final conclusion."
