Synopsis

Audio Adrenaline turn "Big House" into a bright, playful vision of Christian fellowship. The band performs in and around a large house, with energetic movement, broad smiles, group choreography, and deliberately youthful staging. Outdoor scenes suggest a carefree camp or gathering place, while the visual presentation reflects the song's picture of heaven as a welcoming home where everyone belongs. Rather than following a conventional narrative, the video works as an exuberant performance piece built around community, celebration, and the promise of a joyful destination.

  • The visual style is notably playful and homemade-looking, with youthful choreography, oversized early-1990s clothing, and a deliberately uncomplicated interpretation of the song's heavenly "big house."

Lyrics

I don't know where you lay your head
or where you call your home
I don't know where you eat your meals
or where you talk on the phone
I don't know if you got a cook
a butler or a maid
I don't know if you got a year
with a hammock in the shade

I don't know if you got some shelter
say a place to hide
I don't know if you live with friends
in whom you can confide
...
