"King of Emotion" is a song by Scottish rock band Big Country, which was released in 1988 as the lead single from their fourth studio album Peace in Our Time. It was written by Stuart Adamson and produced by Peter Wolf. "King of Emotion" reached No. 16 in the UK, No. 11 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks and No. 20 on the Billboard Album Rock Tracks. The song's music video was directed by Richard Lowenstein. It received breakout rotation on MTV. Recalling the song in the early 1990s, Adamson commented of the song being influenced by the Rolling Stones' "Honky Tonk Women": "There was a groove that suited us, so I thought why not go the whole hog and write our own song?" In 2002, the song was performed by British singer-songwriter Steve Harley (of Cockney Rebel) at the Stuart Adamson Tribute Concert. (en) |
