The movie is a satire of Behind the Music rock & roll bands. Beary, a young bear raised by a human family in a world where humans and talking bears coexist, attempts to trace his roots. He meets up with the Country Bears, a long-since broken-up band, a parody of bands like the Eagles. Beary helps the Country Bears reunite for one final concert, while searching for who he truly is.

Ah, look,|here's the money I got.

Holy moly.

Well, folks,|here's the good news.

The count is in|and we saved Country Bear Hall!

Here we go!

Bears, Bears, Bears...!

Good luck, you guys.

Hey, where you going?

To... sit in the audience.

Well, that's a weird place|for a Country Bear to sit

during a Country Bear concert.

Yeah, Beary.

You're one of us now.

Welcome aboard, Kid.

Ladies and gentlemen

it gives me great pleasure|to introduce to you--

after an absence of many years--

the one, the only

the Country Bears!

Ha, ha! Whoo!

We take the long way around

We get lost and we get found

I wonder why we couldn't go

Straight to the heart of love

Climbing mountains,|crossing streams

Crying tears and dreaming dreams

I guess that's the only way|we know

Straight to the heart of love

Sing it!

Straight to the heart|of love should be

The shortest distance|from lonely

Not always the road|you're thinKing of

Straight to the heart of love

So, take a chance,|shine your light

Isn't it wonderful?

Everything will be all right

You're gonna find a way to go

Straight to the heart of love

I love you!

Straight to the heart|of love should be

The shortest distance|from lonely

Not always the road|you're thinKing of

Straight to the heart of love

I've been thinKing|about you and me

And how this love was meant|to be

I'm taKing|the next clear shot I see

Straight to the heart of love

I'm taKing|the next clear shot I see

Straight to the heart of love...

Straight to the heart of love

Straight

Straight to the heart of love

Straight

Straight

Straight

Oh, yeah.

Straight

Go, man, go.

Straight

Who's that little bear?

Oh, that's no little bear.

That's my brother!

-Yay!|-Whoo-hoo!

Straight to the heart of love

Straight

Straight to the heart of love

Straight.

The Country Bears!

How about that, folks?

Yo, Beary!

Whoo-whoo-whoo!

You're the bear!|You're the bear!

Yay! Yay!

There's a town down the road

Where I ain't been before

Nobody knows my name

Or what I'm looKing for

Maybe things will be|a little different

'Cause it can't stay the same

I'm gonna ease on down the road

Where nobody knows my name.

14 platinum records,|26 top ten singles.

The Bears to me really typify|rock and roll.

Their lives embody freedom.

Nobody tells them what to do.

Hello.

Everybody loves the Bears.

The reason I do what I do today|is because of the Bears.

I needed a... you know...

somebody that I could relate to,|a certain band

and the Bears-- they just did it|for me, you know?

I admired their, uh, courage.

And their tenacity.

And their ability to go out

and fight|for what they believed in.

Real legends.|It's incredible.

And I'm glad we didn't get them,|you know, during wintertime.

Hmm?

The country was cool and all,|but, you know

it was becoming the hip-hop|generation, you know.

People wanted the beat.

The streets was pop.|You know what I mean?

Let 'em feel|what the country feel like

when it's bangin'.

Bow, unh.

You know what I'm saying?|Huh.

We could do that.

I found myself going back

and-and sampling some|of the bass lines

that the Bears had|and-and then we used it

in our first single|and got sued by 'em.

It was like nothing|I'd ever heard.

Wow! What is this?

I have respect for all peoples

and all bears.

Bears are human beings,|just like us.

You understand?

I'm an alien.

Me and Zeb

opened up a can of honey|on the roof of the White House.

We had a great time.

I'm a honey. They dip honey.

I'm a honey dip.

You know what I'm saying?

It's a honey thing, B.

A certain amount of honey,|they...

they start to lose focus.

It was bad.

Bon appetit.

They'll eat anything|that isn't locked up.
