Add Your New Review About The Song The Reviews about Just a Shadow (page 1/1) ------ performed by Big Country Bloody Amazing Song! | Reviewer: aimurray | 11/15/2007 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? Just a Shadow | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/29/2007 If you moved to a differente country and to a small towm in Alabama, you can really understand the lyrics of this song....when you fell depressed and the place and country is not what you thought it would be at all...and if you have ideals and a real heart... in the past you helped a lot o people but now you have to start from zero...and people look at you like you are nothing... Sucker punch | Reviewer: lotusmaglite | 7/23/2007 No, that's not a pun; this song is a sucker punch. It's beauty and hushed tones belie the violence and horror the lyrics express. Only at the end does the band tip its' hand, crashing forward with explosive anger, expressing the rage such violence should inspire in all of us. Simply brilliant. While The Crossing was an amazing album, and many feel The Seer was Big Country's peak, I always felt Steeltown was their best effort, largely due to songs like this one.
