    I was lucky enough to see Bic Runga live in London. She was the support act for the Finn Brothers at the Royal Albert Hall, just her alone up on stage looking so adorably nervous. I'd not heard of her before, but fell instantly in love with her music buying her CD the next day. Beautiful voice, beautiful girl, beautiful songs.

      I've seen her three times in London, but sadly not at the RAH, which I'd have loved because the Finns were promoting the magnificent Everyone Is Here album. She is just brilliant.

      She was very popular in Australia too. When I lived in Australia in early 2000s, they played her songs in Bars and Restaurants.

      She's one of the more well-known Kiwi artists here in Ireland, it all came together for her around 2004, this and 'Sway' started getting lots of radio play and she came over to do some shows / TV appearances etc.

      Look at Bursting Through - the views are just dismal for such an amazing song. There something else going on though. In the "about" section of this channel it says "Joined Sep 26, 2017" yet the vids are older. Why would Bic Runga wait until 2017 to have a You Tube presence too? Nothing makes sense.

    • @majk7215

    I love this song, it came out when I was living in NZ around 2004. when I listed this son on the radio, wow, I got so cautivated by its sound, the music, the.lyrics and obviously Bics beutiful and sweet voice. I got the CD as soon as possible, and now, many years latter back in Mexico, this song and many others from Bic Runga are included in my playlist.
    A little bit before leaving NZ she started a tour around the country with the shows taking place at churches; what a shame i couldn't attend the concert she gave at Palmesrton North, the city I was living in.

      Highest rate of youth suicide rate in the world. Poverty is a problem, housing crisis too; highest amount of gang members per capita in the world and second for prison population per capita, just behind the US. NZ is also the only other country which allows pharmaceuticals to be advertised on TV. And NZ is the third most obese country.

    • @theartsyzoologist
      @theartsyzoologist 6 років тому +1

      As a Maori woman myself and the daughter of an ex patched gang member.. , yes there are many plus sides to the country and their are down sides too, our new Prime Minister has started to action a lot of good despite being on maternity leave, fixing what John Key did to our country, Gang activity doesn't happen nearly as much as the world assumes and Obseity is slowly coming down and our tourist economy is in full swing. Absolutely you can find peace here just be prepared to work hard for it.

    From here to there to everywhere
    And back to Union Square
    Where do I get some sleep?
    Anywhere the sleep dust lies
    It decorates your eyes
    Where do I get some sleep?
    Stranded in June
    Whistling the same old tune
    But I do believe I might be having fun
    I believe I might be having fun
    Impeccably dressed in your second hand vest
    We were waiting for the taxi to come
    Putting on my daytime eyes
    A good enough disguise
    Until I get some sleep
    Reading out the horoscopes
    And using up our jokes
    When do we get to sleep?
    Stand on the moon
    Find the light of my living room
    Yes I do believe I might be having fun
    I believe I might be having fun
    Tune into the station
    Make a dedication
    This is going out to everyone
    This is going out to everyone
    This is going out to everyone
    Something in the phrasing was quietly amazing
    We were waiting for the chorus to come
    This is going out to everyone
    This is going out to everyone
    From here to there to everywhere
    And back to union square
    Where do I get some sleep?
    Anywhere the sleep dust lies
    It decorates your eyes
    When do I get some sleep?
    Stranded in June
    Whistling the same old tune
    Yes I do believe I might be having fun
    I believe I might be having fun
    Tune into the station
    Make a dedication
    This is going out to everyone
    This is going out to everyone
    This is going out to everyone
    This is going out to everyone
    Going out to everyone
    This is going out to everyone
    Anyone going to Manila Globals??

    @LaughingStock_ 6 років тому +4

    I can't help allowing myself a wry smile at the way common language can differ so much, as in this example of New Zealand English vs. USA English: " . . . Shoot into the station, make a dedication - this is going out to everyone..." - "to shoot somewhere" meaning to go somewhere quickly, with purpose, in NZ parlance. In Trump's America, well...you get the idea.
