Just Passin' By, previously known as The World Was So Easy, is a solved lostwave of the band Big Picture. It was originally discovered because a three-second snippet of was accidentally recorded over a recording of someone as a baby.
Background
On February 12th 2021, Reddit user u/e-robotic posted the clip on the r/tipofmytongue subreddit asking if anybody knew what song it was. The 3 second clip showed an unknown man playing a guitar while someone sings something along the lines of "I never thought the world was so easily....". The clip then shortly cuts off.
On April 5th, 2021 u/e-robotic uploaded the clip onto their YouTube channel with new details. It was revealed that the unknown man used a Parker Fly guitar in the video, and the logo in the bottom right corner was revealed to be the New Country Network (NCN), a country music channel based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada which ran from 1/1/95 to 10/31/1996.
Discovery
On February 20th 2024, after 3 years of searching, the song was identified by u/leerosleeve, u/JadeLily_Starchild, and Chris Murphy, under the name of "Just Passin' By" by Big Picture. A day later, on February 21st, the full music video was uploaded to YouTube by Asif Illyas, the guitarist of Big Picture.
