데뷔 이래, 모두를 하나로 이끄는 사운드와 깊이있는 메시지로 6장의 정규앨범, 2,000만장의 판매고를 기록한 초대형 그룹, 라이브! 전통과 변화의 사이에서 절묘하게 완급을 조절하며 지금껏 꾸준한 인기를 누려 온 라이브는 특히, 94년 2집 [THROWING COPPER]와 97년 3집 [SECRET SAMADHI]로 빌보드 앨범차트 정상을 차지하는 기염을 토한 바 있으며, <SELLING THE DRAMA>, <I ALONE>, <ALL OVER YOU>, <LIGHTNING CRASHES>, <DOLPHIN'S CRY> 같은 히트 싱글들을 양산해 왔다. 라이브는 7번째 스튜디오 앨범인 신작 [SONGS FROM BLACK MOUNTAIN]을 통해 포스트 그런지 밴드라는 숙명의 그림자를 완전히 걷어버리고, 모던 록 밴드로의 완벽한 이동을 성공시켰다.

It came without warning A love like I ain't never felt before She's like my destiny calling And she's lying there all naked on the floor
And suddenly, out of the blue she's singin'...
Oh babe, let my lovin' ease your pain Bring your burning skin to my river once again I'll give you life Oh baby, let my lovin' ease your pain tonight
She came without warning like an angel come from heaven in the night (in the night) the kiss makes me tremble so she pulls me close and holds me oh so tight.
And suddenly, out of the blue she's singin'...
Oh babe, let my lovin' ease your pain Bring your burning skin to my river once again I'll give you life
Oh baby, let my lovin' ease your pain
I give you life (ooohhh) I'll give you life, baby (oooh) I'll give you love
Oh babe, let my lovin' ease your pain Bring your burning skin to my river once again I'll give you life Oh baby, let my lovin' ease your pain Oh babe, let my lovin' ease your pain Bring your burning skin to my river once again I'll give you life Oh baby, let my lovin' ease your pain
My ammunition won't load into my gun My inhibitions, they fall like the weight from a stone You lead my heart away like a homeless, dusted fool Somehow this dimestore ring still shines like a diamond to you
Oh, how it deepens Oh, how it deepens
Your mystery Keeps on turnin' me on Your mystery
Thought I knew the rules Thought I held it in my hands Thought I was bulletproof 'til the blood pooled up in the sand Are you a satellite? A shooting star or a dove? Did we put you way up there or did God send you down from above?
Oh, how it deepens Oh, how it deepens
Your mystery Keeps on turnin' me on Your mystery Burns me up like the sun Your mystery
Mine eyes have seen the glory of a love that does transcend Mine eyes have seen the worst inside of man And the fear is like a fallen bridge A broken promise And the proof is in the bloodshot eyes of the one who failed to see
Your mystery Keeps on turnin' me on!
(Heaven is one so why believe when you can see it for yourself)
