Wonderwall
Information:
The song that made Oasis the
biggest band to alot of people.
A wonderful ballad that has some of Liamīs best vocals ever.
Itīs about Noelīs wife Meg.
Wonderwall is THE classic for Oasis, and they have played it
on every concert since it was written and according to Noel
they will keep playing it forever;
"You canīt get bored of fifteen thousand people shouting for
Wonderwall. Thatīs better than drugs."
This is how the music magazine Q reviews Wonderwall;
"Itīs an odd sort of love song.
Liam poured himself into it, turning Noelīs plaintive,
personal demo into this massive valedictory, his mix-filling
voice forcing the mournful cello and deferential acoustic
guitar to back all the way
off.
The happy, doubt-free majority just sang along.
In every city centre in Britain between October ī95 and
June ī96.
Waverers found themselves replaying the point at which Liam
sings "by now...." - the explosiveness of it! - the way the
drums come in on "backbeat..." - the sheer dumb, brilliant
cheek of it! - and slowly being turned."
The video was shot in Woolwich, London by Nigel Dick.
Itīs in some big room with Oasis playing and doing other
things. It would take a while to write everything they do
in this video so I wonīt...well itīs in black and white and it
starts with a clown puting on a vinyl record with a Oasis logo
on it. Guigsy is not in this video, he was off by the time,
so some other guy is there instead.
No Us version was made, they used the same.
Hereīs the single version of Wonderwall, listen and enjoy!
The Lyrics:
Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now
Backbeat the word was on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody feels
The way I do about you now
And all the roads we have to walk along are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would
Like to say to you
I don't know how
Because maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after all
You're my wonderwall
Today was gonna be the day?
But they'll never throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you're not to do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do
About you now
And all the roads that lead to you were winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
I don't know how
I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after all
You're my wonderwall
I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after an
You're my wonderwall
Said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me
