Consider the song and the video. If you could watch one of these asap which would it be.

The Safety Dance video is a little more fun, so I guess I'd go with that. Any reason you decided to pit these two videos against each other?

I know alot of songs could have been used here but I felt In a Big Country is as 80's as 80's music can be and I felt it would be a good matchup between the two.
I dig both but my choice would be In a Big Country.
The end of that video is pretty hilarious when he is repelling down thecliff.

big country by a country mile.

safety dance is an ok song and video but i much prefer big countrys - in a big country.


http://youtu.be/BBhnLZIAiHw - the sailor by big country from there album - the seer,one of my favourite tracks of theres,was never released as a single hence the unofficial music video.

a great band.

I´m a big Big Country fan. My bro owns basically everything they have released.
So, In a Big Country wins this battle.

I'm a fan of both bands, so this one has to come down to song vs song for me. And considering Safety Dance is actually not one of my favorites from MWH, I think Big Country wins this one by a few strides.

In A Big Country all the way for me too. For some reason, I really dislike Safety Dance...I don`t think it would even make my Top 1000 Songs of the 80`s!!| [Smile] In A Big Country would make my top 20....
