They really didn't like that comparison. I've seen it brought up in an old interview somewhere here on youtube & the whole band sort of groan in unison at the suggestion. As a guitarist myself, I suspect they're just using a similar scale to classic bagpipe music & that's where the similarity comes from. Whatever it is it's awesome, & unique in rock guitar playing. Phenomenal band.

@@myfrequencies1912 More than just the use of major scales and trills. The guitar tone in particular is evocative of pipes. Lots of compression before distortion, to create smoothly sustaining tones that don't lose harmonics over time. And the pitch shifter detuning also creates thickness like a chorus slightly detuned pipes. It may not have been intended, but I can see where it comes from.

"In A Big Country" Ha I've never seen you look like this without a reason Another promise fallen through, another season passes by you Shock 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 Shock, 1, 2 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 Ha Shock

just a thought. when I first heard this song at age 16 I was totally shocked. the threat of a world nuclear event was real. I remember worrying about it. then i heard this song and thought - this ain't U2. I realized after hearing Chance that BC was a band I could never fully understand, but I wanted to, and the music & lyrics were so brilliant, I just thought - go for it. BC has been a true friend. Inspiration. Mirror. I don't credit Stuart for everything, as much as I miss him each day. I credit Mark, Bruce and Tony and Stuart. Listen to that bass line. Listen to perfect beat and fills that would make Peart envious. And rhythm that matches anything. Wonderland still makes me stop breathing.

@@cejannuzi it goes way beyond the music, but the sound of the band is made up of four instruments and two voices. the other three members of the band are not bit players. they are integral - every one of them - to the magic that happened when their best music was created. stuart is irreplaceable because he was a unique vocalist, a unique and extremely gifted guitar player AND the poet delivering the message driven by the music created by himself and the other three. what happened to the band after he died proves nothing. would Stuart's impending solo career have been a success? the band was the vehicle that allowed him to be the supreme performer he undoubtedly was. Bruce Watson is himself a fantastic player; his parts are original as hell and he hardly ever fucks up. and as for Mark and Tony, they are the engine. both players are technically top drawer and they created some truly unique sounding music. you are talking about a rare chemistry that exists between members of a band which creates an energy that one person alone simply cannot create.
