    IN A BIG COUNTRY
    GERMANY 1995

    SHOUT !!!!!!!!
    I've never seen you look like this without a reason
    Another promise fallen through
    Another season passes by you
    I never took the smile away from anybody's face
    And that's a desperate way to look
    For someone who is still a child
    In a big country dreams stay with you
    Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
    Stay alive
    I thought that pain and truth
    Were things that really mattered
    But you can't stay here
    With every single hope you had shattered
    I'm not expecting to grow flowers in a desert
    But I can live and breathe
    And see the sun in wintertime
    In a big country dreams stay with you
    Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
    Stay alive
    In a big country dreams stay with you
    Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
    Stay alive
    So take that look out of here it doesn't fit you
    Because it's happened
    Doesn't mean you've been discarded
    Pull up your head off the floor
    Come up screaming
    Cry out for everything you ever might have wanted
    I thought that pain and truth
    Were things that really mattered
    But you can't stay here
    With every single hope you had shattered
    I'm not expecting to grow flowers in a desert
    But I can live and breathe
    And see the sun in wintertime
    In a big country dreams stay with you
    Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
    Stay alive
    In a big country dreams stay with you
    Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
    Stay alive
    In a big country dreams stay with you
    Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
    Stay alive

    That is why music is supposed to be played live by real musicians without autotune and plastic talent-shows!

    When I first heard this as a teen, I was blown away. It was so different and unlike any genre I had experienced. This makes me feel so young and untouchable like it did when I first heard my heartbeat almost louder than the drums. Does that make me a geek? who cares, I just got happy! Time is so fleeting, enjoy it you youngsters! Make it COUNT! Do something that is gonna MATTER! I'm praying for all our youth, I know things are tough on you guys. Need advice? Drop by my channel! Peace and luv

    I always loved this song, especially blaring on the jukebox in the arcade I used to go to back in 1983. It's too bad he's not here with us today, great jam, great voice! :)

      +Bill Suszynski Amen ;.....One of the most terrible losses in music .....I loved these guys .. Grew up with Zep and the rest from the 70's but this band is one that made the 80's a great decade also ..........Something awful happened in the 90's though .......Someone got the bright idea that rock needed to be contrasted with hip-hop ;......More divisive crap from todays divisive media establishment .

    I saw them this same year, and it was one of the ten best (out of hundreds) of live shows I remember. Stuart had such energy and enthusiasm; I recall him lifting a woman in the front up on stage with her disposable camera, and he took pictures of her with the band and himself. I wonder about those photos, now.

    • @shelaghmoore445
      @shelaghmoore445 8 років тому +3

      +musicsunhappy It is painful to think about it isnt it, when you listen to the lyrics. The song to me is about spitting in the face of adversity and defiantly dragging yourself back when everything seems against you,. Then we go and lose the man who wrote such wonderful words of life affirming encouragement in that way. Much as I still love the music, it is tinged with sadness now. Especially watching a performance like this where he seems so happy and enjoying himself. Like you I always wonder Why? The human mind and emotions are mysteries, even though we think we understand them.

Stuart - you and BC made a positive difference in my life. So glad you are part of me. Rare. Only other band I could say the same of? The Beatles.

    Out of all the gigs I've been to, Big Country supplied two of the top three.
    For the curious, the other one was Marillion just after they released Script for a Jester's Tear, at the UEA in Norwich, which probably had a capacity of about 300.
