"Big Enough" is famous for Barnes' screaming, which has turned into an internet meme.[5]


Background


In an interview with Under the Radar, Callinan described his desire to include Barnes, which included receiving an e-mail with audio files of the famous screaming.[6]

Pedestrian describes "Big Enough" as a mixture of The Man from Snowy River, Brokeback Mountain, and the Spaghetti Western genre of films.[7]


Music video


The music video for "Big Enough" released alongside the single in August 2017. Directed by Danny Cohen,[8] the video takes place in an old west environment with wacky events. Molly Lewis appears in the video whistling to the sky, where a screaming, translucent Jimmy Barnes appears.[7]


Internet meme


"Big Enough" became an internet meme by October 2017.[9] The song features Barnes screaming, and the music video features him screaming in the sky.[10] Many of the memes feature Barnes' image and vocals transplanted into various scenes in popular culture. Commenting on the recording of the track, Barnes simply stated he "screamed...like a banshee for...five minutes".[5]
