![]() James Maslow, 32, Logan Henderson, 33, Kendall Schmidt, 32, and Carlos PenaVega, 33, who make up the pop boy band that originated on Nickelodeon in 2009, are gearing up to take the stage before devoted fans lining Rockefeller Plaza, anxiously anticipating the second performance in TODAY’s Citi Concert Series. ![]() ![]() Big Time Rush is big-time back with a new album, and though it’s a return nearly a decade in the making, there’s one thing that’s been there all along: the fans. Uploaded to by Geeking with Gabby in December 2021. ![]() ↑ "Columbia Chronicle Interview with Big Time Rush's Kendall Schmidt" (Timestamp 58:57-59:51).Retrieved 12 December 2021 – via Twitter. NEW BTR TONIGHT at 8:30! AND Guess what?Were introducing a NEW song!! its called "A Shot In The Dark" Lemme know what u think!" (Tweet). I don't want to watch the world keep changing (a shot in the dark) I just want to race with arms wide open (a shot in the dark) 'Cause I don't want to waste another moment (a shot in the dark) When I'm not with you, my heart keeps shaking I don't want to watch the world keep changing 'Cause I don't want to waste another moment This version of the song runs 3:24 in length. It also incorporates the opening notes from the episode version, while adding an outro chorus that is not present in either of the previously heard mixes. The composition is nearly identical to the demo leaked in 2013, but the mixing is notably rebalanced, with the electrical guitars being louder. The opening notes from the episode version are also absent from this demo.Ī third version was unofficially released in 2013. Additionally, while James Maslow provides backup vocals in the episode version, his vocals lead the chorus in the demo mix. This demo retains the electric guitars heard in the episode version, while adding a bubbly, more pop-esque synth line. The full version of the song was not heard until February 2013, when a demo mix, running 3:00 in length, appeared online. The 90-second episode cutdown in "Big Time Terror", first aired on May 8, 2010, is driven primarily by electric guitars, and Kendall Schmidt lends lead vocals during the song's chorus. Three different versions of "A Shot in the Dark" have, officially or unofficially, been showcased. It is unknown who wrote or produced the song. Unlike most songs featured in Big Time Rush, the songwriters of "A Shot in the Dark" are not listed in the end credits of the episode in which it appears. James Maslow performed the song as one of two solo numbers in the show, singing and playing the first verse, bridge, and chorus of the song on piano. The song was, however, incorporated into the setlist for the band's 2014 world tour, the Live World Tour. In a 2021 interview, Schmidt expressed confusion over why Nickelodeon and Columbia Records did not release "A Shot in the Dark", as well as why songs that were exclusively available as bonus tracks or B-sides on specific releases, such as " This Is Our Someday", " Paralyzed", or " Blow Your Speakers", were not given a wider release, saying, "That just goes to show that we were not deciding that, because we obviously would have put out." The song was the only one featured in the show's first season to not appear on any version of the band's debut studio album, BTR, released on October 11, 2010. The episode ends with BTR performing a music video for the new song, called "A Shot in the Dark", as they sing and dance in Rocqué Records and in the Palm Woods lobby, the latter of which is seen through night vision lighting, as Carlos and Logan use earlier in the episode. With the help a new girl named Stephanie, the boys use a fake ghost to scare Gustavo back to his mansion, where he writes a song influenced by Kendall and James' earlier one. Determined to get rid of Gustavo, Kendall and James try to subtly get their message across to him, one method involving making up and singing a short song called " Snore in the Dark". In the episode, Gustavo Rocqué spends the night at BTR's apartment after his mansion floods, and he soon overstays his welcome, putting off working on BTR's newest song while he plays video games and swims at the Palm Woods pool. "A Shot in the Dark" was first showcased in the thirteenth episode of the first season of Big Time Rush, "Big Time Terror", which premiered on Nickelodeon on May 8, 2010.
