Big Wreck - I Digress Lyrics

We saw these guys in Campbell River, BC a couple of months ago and they were fantastic (as expected). Insanely talented and absolutely fabulous songs. I agree with Gabriel - these guys are superstars but somewhat unknown because that's how effed up the music industry is now. The guitarist on the right passed recently, sadly. His voice and guitar chops were outstanding.

so ein wunderprächtiges Solo---

One of THE baddest basslines ever played...the rest of the song aint half bad either ;-)

Seriously fucking with it ..

Man, I was worried about the backing vocals as they’re such a big part of the song, but they are crushing it. RIP Brian

this year's suhr party sounds WAY better than the 2014 video i just watched. good decision bringing the BW guys back on board

This always tears me apart.

I've always loved Big Wreck, but damn. Just, Damn... I feel like I'm in 1997 again. The dueling/twin/doubling guitars, holy shit.

@2:14...that bass!

Simply the best band playing now

This is why BW has been my 1#band for 20 years! That friggin solo 😳❤️🤘

Big Wreck the only band that sounds better live !

fantastic!

unreal level of everything good in music.

That solo was disgusting.

4:29 I swear to God, Paulo looks so badass yet is an absolute cinnamon roll

erik stuchlý it seems that Brian is the technician and Paulo is the secret weapon- sings great too

Fantastic!

Absolutely the most impressive live sound mix since Fleetwood Mac's "The Dance". Just a tiny bit more to the drums and it'd be absolutely perfect.

This is by far one of the best songs Big Wreck has ever written. And that ending solo was just over the top! WOW

3:09 When you suddenly remember you have a hernia

Insane bass solo!!!!!!!!

w3rrd heard these guys on q104 Halifax in 2002 rediscovered them in 2018 , at 61 I think it is some of best music I have ever listened t o

Love these guys so much

absolutely INCREDIBLE....Seen them live 3 times, and they are the best band I have ever heard live bar NONE

My mind is Blown Wide Open!

@3:00 AWESOME

That solo though...

HOLY CRAP THIS IS AMAZING. Watching them syncing to each other at the end is insane!!

So badass

Anyone else notice how much the main riff sounds like Megadeths "Symphony of Destruction'?

I'm not at all saying they ripped them off, I love Big Wreck and was a big Megadeth fan years ago, but I just noticed now.

Cool!

THAT IS RIDICULOUS.

just wanted ask the moron who said this sounds like sympathy of destruction if he is fkn tone deaf?!!! u r an idiot. seen these guys live 12 times so fkn awesome every time!

Just fuckin phenomenal...nothing more to say.

sometimes i wonder why didn't youtube doesn't invent a 'like' button that I can press, I don't know, like about 436 times. This would be one of those times.

Hells yeah

Why has no one mentioned how similar to Symphony of Destruction this is? I like I Digress better, but still, come on man

Great sound, great voice, great band. I wait for you in Italy!

This...

WHY ARE THEY NOT THE BIGGEST BAND IN THE WORLD?

I keep wondering that.

ROOKTABULA National Praying Mantis...good line.

Music, as all art forms is highly subjective. For me, they are the biggest band in the world. Of course, they would deserve much more publicity and success worldwide, that's for sure. :-)

That's what I've been saying!!!!

I couldn't agree more Gabriel. They should definitely be promoted as a top tier superstar band in the biggest venues. They are light years beyond most of the so-called rock bands out there and I won't even discuss the "pop stars" that are paid way beyond what they deserve

Great song. I wouldn't say Ian and these guys are underrated (anyone who's heard them gets it) but they are criminally under recognized/unknown to too many.

+Jeff H Help change that...

They got a ton of airplay back when they released "in loving memory" in the boston area...saw them.live once but then they seemed to drop off the face of the earth...shame...they are awesome

Big Wreck was great when theey first came out, this is amazing and Ian holy solo mofo

holy crap the ending of this song!!

Lame how the camera pans just off Dave just as he's ready to rip that sick bass fill in the middle. Long-time fan of these guys - killer band.

sickness,!

How come every time I mention Big Wreck to friends they always say "who's that". These guys are amazing musicians, keep rocking guys. See you on tour soon.

+Christopher MacDonald Trying to change that. Come visit!

Hats off to David on the bass, well to all of you guys because you are all amazing musicians but the bassist just took off like a rocket at 2:20 and deserves a standing ovation. Well done mister bass man, well done.

Can I comment twice on the same video? Well I'm gonna. I just worked my ass off today for 11 hours and I am enjoying a a couple brewski's and this song just kicked my ass again. These guys are tight. That is all.

This is how all their LIVE videos should be produced. The bass is fat, but super tight, guitars are clear, but very liquid and the vocals are properly balanced and focused. It sounds fantastic on my PSB Image 4T speakers and amplified through my NAD C340 integrated amplifier. If Ian Thornley heard this in my living room, he would fall on his ass. It sounds that good and the song is so well written. Thank you guys.

@ThunderDoME I can't imagine a life without a decent stereo system. Music is a very important part of my life. I wish more musicians would care about good sound.

@MuristekTV those who don't care about good sound are not those I would call musicians....

@MuristekTV Yeah, what he said.

@Victor Levy So true. It is obvious from the comments here that several people have noticed the difference. this is damn good live sound.

+MuristekTV Can confirm, listening through my Genelecs in a treated room. The mix is A+.

Better with age like fine Canadian whiskey

@Brad R. Pickens yep might be their best album

So damn good from beginning to end. Thanks for posting this whole set.

Where have I been to miss these guys? Love the three guitar fat sound and the dual solo harmony. Amazingly clean, tight and powerful. Major kudos. They are all using the Pigtronix Philosopher's Tone compressor/sustain pedal if I understood Ian correctly in another video.

@Rob Chiavelli Come visit!

+Rob Chiavelli I would assume they are using all Suhr gear, since this is at the Suhr Party & they use a lot of Suhr gear from instruments to amps to pedals. It is my understanding that Ian was using both Rufus & Rufus Reloaded, as well as a Koji Compressor at least in the latest album's "A Place to Call Home."

oh this solo, fuckin fantastic!!!

this rox!

Who is the idiot that hit thumbs down??!!

I forgot to mention. I love Big Wreck!!

Best ending to a song ever!!!

Amazing!

I hear a little nod to Guns N' Roses in this solo. Anyone else catch that?

Wow. The work you put in to live performance really pays off. The whole band is incredible. What a fantastic live recording too. This is probably Canada's greatest bands right now!

Oh man oh man! Wow.

Ear nirvana!

So glad I finally got to see them and went to this. Absolutely blown wide open!!

Seriously better than the album, that almost never happens with live music. 

It doesn't get any better than Big Wreck y'all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Always melting my face! #TXlovesBW  

Yes yes yes! I was waiting for a 'board feed of this song!

One of my favourite voices in rock. These guys are talented to pull that off live. Love it.

Sooooooooooooooooooooo damn good!  Yew!

Absolutely killer !!!

Dat hybrid-picked solo doh.

This is a brilliant album.Totally the complexity of Big Wreck,but fresh and new.Each tune is unique...a true classic!!
I love the whole album!!

Absolutely incredible :) I love Big Wreck and Ian Thornley!!
Great tones, Suhr make some very nice gear. Hopefully some more videos are released:)

Love these guys !!! It was a blast having them.

@Sound Foundation Entertainment  It is so refreshing to find true musical talent in the this world of hype ! I am their #1 fan. I still thank Pete Thorn for introducing us.

@HouseofChains81  They didn't tour anywhere near me. What else was I supposed to do ! ;-)

@John Suhr  You did us all a solid, as "they" say... This show is the definitive live Big Wreck performance! I see it right up there next to Hendrix live at Woodstock.

+John Suhr

Please - PUHLEAZE - reach out to the band about distributing this show in its entirety. The music world needs this in our bluray collections.

Of course the band was incredible, they usually are, but whoever handled sound tech for this likely did the show of his/her life. I've never heard any live recording come anything close to the quality of what I'm listening to here.

Phenomenal. Thanks.

I agree 100% with you Matt!
