i ended the week a bit drained while at church.. maybe it was the 2 days of playing PES with my mate.. or the late night watching the soccer.. and having to drive to fairfield from the city and back home ..and then some more driving the day after..
monday morning came and i was still feeling blue.. i was skipping thru my music on my mp3 player.. i played my fav hard trance song..but i wasnt feeling it. My stop had come..wynyard station..and i decided to put on some good 'ol champagne supernova ... my spirits were lifted again. I felt so much better.. on a music high..
I just wonder why this track gets me so carefree..it must be the lyrics..and trying to relate to it..but somehow to only some degree.. or not even..
Someday you will find me ...<-- somewhere off to the side
Caught beneath the landslide ... <-- gutted down in substance
In a champagne supernova in the sky ... <-- being high
im so looking forward to spring..

you're emo! i don't mean it that it is a bad thing! but anyway, apparently this song didn't mean anything to the band, according to oasis (they were the first ones to sing it yes??)
haha yes. No offence taken :P I think God has gotten me out of my shell and has developed some emotion in me in the past year lol (thanks God!)
When did they mention this? To what i've read on songmeanings.net i thought it was in dedication to a mate that was under drug abuse..
would love to sing this song at K but none have em :(
Actually, Noel Gallagher himself writes on the Oasis site what this song is all about- Oasisinet.com: (basically it's about nothing...)
Champagne Supernova
"Some of the lyrics were written when I was out of it. There's the words: 'Someday you will find me/ Caught beneath a landslide/ ln a Champagne Supernova in the sky'. That's probably as psychedelic as I'll ever get. It means different things when I'm in different moods. When I'm in a bad mood being caught beneath a landslide is like being suffocated. The song is a bit of an epic. It's about when you're young and you see people in groups and you think about what they did for you and they did nothing. As a kid, you always believed the Sex Pistols were going to conquer the world and kill everybody in the process. Bands like The Clash just petered out. Punk rock was supposed to be the revolution but what did it do? F all. The Manchester thing was going to be the greatest movement on earth but it was f all. When we started we decided we weren't going to do anything for anybody, we Jut thought we'd leave a bunch of great songs. But some of the words are about nothing. One is about Bracket The Butler who used to be on Camberwick Green, or Chipley or Trumpton or something. He used to take about 20 minutes to go down the hall. And then I couldn't think of anything that rhymed with 'hall' apart from 'cannonball'. so I wrote 'Slowly walking down the hall/ Faster than a cannonball' and people were like, 'Wow, f , man'. There's also the line 'Where were you while we were getting high?' because that's what we always say to each other. But the number of people who've started clubs called Champagne Supernova is f ing unbelievable. And the album isn't even released yet."
