Barenaked Ladies/Concert Song

Advertisement


Question
I'm not a hardcore BNL fan but i enjoy their music and have a couple Cd's. I went to their Calgary coert in May and heard this song of theirs I'd never heard before. Theres only one line i remember that goes like this: "I couldn't be the sun cause I'd burn and when I get back I will return". Or something similar to that.

I would really appriciate if you could answer me.  

Answer
Hi Keith,

I appreciate your question.  I looked up the setlist for the Calgary concert, however I didn't see a May concert listed.  I found an April 1st concert in Calgary though, so I am assuming that is the show you meant?  However, after looking at the setlist, I couldn't find anything that has your line in it.  I am confident in my knowledge of BNL lyrics and that one is not familiar to me whatsoever.  Maybe you can provide me with a little more information?  Was the song a ballad or upbeat?  Do you remember if they played it at the beginning, middle, or end of the show?  Which of their cd's do you own, that way I can eliminate those songs.  This information might help me to figure out your song.
