BIG COUNTRY LYRICS

  Lyrics - Big Country Lyrics

 :: Biography
 :: Albums





Big Country's last studio album, "Driving To Damascus",
combined all the elements that originally elevated the band
into the charts in the mid-Eighties. These, along with a
new found stylistic diversity stemming from Stuart
Adamson's relocation to Nashville in 1997 where he immersed
himself in the musical community and scene.

"Its the first time I've ever lived in a totally creative
community" he commented "and the first time I have ever
co-written with other artists". In 1999 Stuart (who was
spiritual but not religious), played signature guitar on
Randy Stonehill's No 1 Christian record The Face of God,
sang on Darryl Scott's messed up bluegrass record and then
wrote with Texan out and out country singer Christie
Sutherland.

    Big Country in General | Reviewer: Terry W. Crow
        ------ About artist/band Big Country

    Big Country has been and still is one of the MOST influencial bands I have ever had the pure pleasure of listening to. I fell in Love at the first sounds of In a Big Country and still jam every day to all of their music. Sad about Stuart's passing, sad indeed, for a musical genius had passed from our view. However, we thankfully have their music to keep us company and in tune with life as we travail our own Big Country... God Bless You Stuart and company!!! And a million thanks beyond words......


    What a Song | Reviewer: Patricia Wylie
        ------ About the song The Seer performed by Big Country

    I must admit to curiosity about this song. A song about a seer. I found nothing funny about it at all. There was little in the song that I did not already believe. The times are bad. Those who truly preach peace are killed. Our environment is close to ruin. The Seer speaks the truth.


    To Scott | Reviewer: InSINserely
        ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country

    This is a really beautiful song. Maybe you just don't understand the lyrics because it does make sense to everyone else. if you think this is bad music, what could you possibly consider to be good?

    And to Liz, I'm pretty sure they actually used a bagpipe.

        ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country

    Immediately after hearing this song on VH1, I needed to shove tooth picks down my piss hole so I could forget about the pain. If you like lyrics that do not make sense than this is the song for you. This is way there's so much bad music in the world, because people like you actually think its good. Thank you and good day.

        ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country

    its kinda sad 4 me cause im in 7th grade and all the other kids make fun of me for listin to stuff like this... this is defently one of the songs thatll probly be in all our hearts i love its so much it makes me happy and deapressed at the same time but mostly happy


    no ebow in that (fantastic) song... | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country

    tho Big Country did use a lot of ebow ("Where the Rose is Sown" is a prime example of Big COuntry's ebow use...listen to the break). the main tool used for the "bagpipe" sound was the MXR M-129 Pitch Transposer.

    and Big Country was so *not* a "one-hit" band! yeah, one hit in the U.S..."In a Big Country" hit #17 in the States. "Fields of Fire" and "Wonderland" reached #52 and #86, respectively, in the U.S.

    however, Big Country were all over the British charts. so yeah, one hit in the U.S., but international fame. i'll take the latter any day.

    cheers...

        ------ About the song Lost Patrol performed by Big Country

    Absolutely loved the way Stuart Adamson and the rest of Big Country were able to make their music sound "celtic", ie. having their guitars tuned and modulated to sound similar to highland bagpipes. Miss their music.


    Bagpipes | Reviewer: Liz
        ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country

    Hey Nathan, those aren't bagpipes. That's the guitar! which only goes to show how original and creative they really are. I'd even go as far as to say that they're one of the best bands of all times... yeah, I said it. BEST BAND EVER.

        ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country

    I first heard this song in a snowboard video. I thought that is one of the greatest songs ive ever heard. Now every time i go out skiing or snowboarding i put this song on to pump me up!!.

    Wonderful Band - Big Country | Reviewer: victoria
        ------ About the song Wonderland performed by Big Country

    I am re-visiting this band of my youth. Even after all these years they are still inspiring and uplifting with the soaring upward movement of the sound of their music and their honest lyrics. Big Country has always been an under-considered treasure. I am still deeply, deeply saddened by the death of Adamson and wonder why such an attractive father, gifted singer, writer and appealing performer would think he had so little reason to continue living.


    One of the best bands to EVER come out of the 80's | Reviewer: Kurt F.
        ------ About the song Harvest Home performed by Big Country

    The drums,the drums,the drums!!!!! Also, the driving bass, Stuarts voice and his signiture guitar sound make this song one of my all-time favorites. In fact, when I croak, this will be one of 3 songs played at my funeral.


    In a Big Country | Reviewer: wettoadlegs
        ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country

    I am 28 years old and heard In A Big Country for the first time last week. Let me tell yeah the song rocks and it brings a smile to my face because the lyrics are so positive, we need more positive things in songs instead of the depressing songs.


    Classic Rock. | Reviewer: Lee Chapa
        ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country

    When I was young, I was a sad kid. My parents didn't listen to rock. Then one day some high school teen was playing a song in his '67 Camero. I asked who was that singing? Apparently I was deprived, he said. Ever since then I've been listening to rock. All kinds. Why listen to sad songs? "In A Big Country" is one of those songs that make you want to sing. It makes your spirit fly. BIG COUNTRY. "ROCK ON!"


    The Great Seer Has Spoken | Reviewer: G
        ------ About the song All Fall Together performed by Big Country

    In 2011/12 The sun will burn brighter than man has seen. Man will be forced into the depths of the Earth. Those who survive will vibrate to a new concious of love and peace. Stuart Adamson was a seer who sang of his visions. See you on the other side brother.

    Peace and Love

    Bloody Amazing Song! | Reviewer: aimurray
        ------ About the song Just a Shadow performed by Big Country

    This song is Big Country at their absolute finest. It gives me chills to this day and is especially poignant considering Stuart Adamson's early and tragic death. You can really feel his pain in this song. I saw them in concert at their peak and they were unbelievable. WTF, why aren't there bands like Big Country anymore?


    RIP stuart | Reviewer: myself
        ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country

    Best live band ever. So underrated it's not even funny. These guys are class. Stuart, you are sorely missed. BTW-- It's an e-bow, not bagpipes. Please, if you liked In a Big Country, listen to the rest. It will blow your mind. Youtube's a good start. RIP Stu. Love you.


    Big Country Rock | Reviewer: kirsty-louise
        ------ About artist/band Big Country

    Big Country are an 80s Rock band who...well....rock my socks off. Still going after all these years and even after Stuart's passing. Kids should be weened on this stuff instead of mother's milk. I practically was.


    Still in the New Millenium | Reviewer: tejanotx@sbcglobal.net
        ------ About the song In A Big Country performed by Big Country

    This song has achieved grocery store status in the new millenium. It is one of those songs I have heard the chorus to forever but never knew the name of the song...and finally decided to investigate what in blazes this song sounded like from beginning to end.
    The chorus is catchy enough to remember, earning itself a place in the annals of elevator and grocery store songs you sort of remember.....
