Music Heard in Kohls Commercial: In A Big Country
Did you hear the new Transformation Nation commercial for Kohls? (or Khols if you transpose letters like me)

It features one of my favorite songs: In A Big Country....

I never seen you look like this without a reason
Another promise fallen through, another season passes by you

In a big country dreams stay with you
Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
Stay alive


The song is "In A Big Country" originally recorded by none other than Big Country from the LP/CD "The Crossing."

Yeah, reminds me of when it came out, ahh, 1983. Good times.

Oh yeah, the song in the commercial is NOT Big Country. According to a message posted on the official Big Country website, it was performed by "session musicians" Jimmy Gnecco vocalist for the band "Ours," just for the Kohls commercial, and is not (yet?) available for purchse.

There is a version of this song by Dashboard Confessionalwhich is being played in the Kohl's stores, and you can buy this one, but it is not the same one in the commercial. Get it at iTunes

There is also a version by Face To Face.

I noticed in they left out the line:
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

Which makes sense, it doesn't really fit the commercial. The commercial is for the "Transformation Nation" campaign sponsored by Khol's, and the video has images such as people hiking with a canoe on "transform trail" and proposing, then getting married.

Answer 3

It's the hit of 80's one hit UK "sensation" band, Big Country titled "(It's a ) Big Country". But doubts are their version of the song is in the Kohl's commercial.

Answer 4

the name of the band is ''BIG COUNTRY'' from the 80s but it is not them in the advert
