1. ...the name of a side project of Detroit techno artist John Beltran. A self-titled album was released by the Transmat label of Derrick May in 1999, followed by two EPs.
2. the stage name used by Canadian singer-songwriter Gordon Peterson. He originally formed a band in his early musical career, but split up the band because he felt as if he had to restrict his music and make it conform to the limits and abilities of those specific band members. He would rather choose his own set of band members for each individual track.

[Verse 1]
D C
When I walk beside her, I am the better man
G D
When I look to leave her, I always stagger back again
D C
Once I built an ivory tower, so I could worship from above
G D
And when I climb down to be set free, she took me in again
[Chorus]
D Am
There's a big, a big hard sun
G D
Beatin' on the big people in the big hard world
[Verse 2]
D C
When she comes to greet me, she is mercy at my feet (when I)
G D
When I stay to pillage her, she just throws it back at me
D C
Once I dug an early grave, to find a better land
G D
She just smiled and laughed at me, and took her blues back again
[Chorus] (x2)
D Am
There's a big, a big hard sun
G D
Beatin' on the big people in the big hard world
[Verse 3]
D C
And when I go to cross that river she is, comfort by my side
G D
When I try to understand, she just opens up her hands

[Chorus]
D Am
Ohh Oh, There's a big, a big hard sun
G D
Beatin' on the big people in the big hard world
[Verse 4]
D C
Once I stood to lose her, when I saw what I had done
G D
Mmm Burned down and threw away the hours, of her garden and her sun
D C
So I tried to warn her, and turned to see her weep
G D
Mmm 40 days and 40 nights, and it's still coming down on me
[Chorus] (x5)
D Am
There's a big, a big hard sun
G D
Beatin' on the big people in the big hard world
