| Dude, Oasis is hecka stuck-up. Top ten of all time? Oasis might be an okay band, but they're basically just rip-offs of the Beatles. Some of their songs are okay, but I can't help but think they're just following in the footsteps of the greatest band of all time. That said, it's an ok song. Reminds me of the Beatles. | |

| Oasis sound very different from the beatles. They've got influences like the Sex Pistols and stuff. There first two albums were as good as the Beatles first two. Inbetween In Utero and Californication they were the best band in the world. I think what he 'doesn't believe' is all the people who tell you to stay between the lines and to live the way society wants. | |

| for all u people out there that see oasis as betles rip offs open your eyes, oasis are the best band of the past couple of decades. of course they arn't as good as the beatles but they aren't far off and some of their songs are better than the beatles, for example; slide away, stand by me, LIVEFORVER etc. | |

| This song was apparently written in five minutes flat in the v early 90's when Noel was fed up with the ' I want to kill myself ' attitude of the grunge scene at the time. It's basically just a reposte to the shoe gazing attitudes... | |

| In the documentary Live Forever, Noel discussed that the song was about growing up in a lower class and about resisting, as debaser2002 mentioned, the 'i want to kill myself attitude'. It has a similar, although much more subtly said meaning as the Pulp's 'Common People' where these people are focussed on day to day living, and don't care 'how your garden grows' Read this lyrics, and it is pretty evident... i think: Maybe I don't really want to know How your garden grows I just want to fly Lately did you ever feel the pain In the morning rain As it soaks it to the bone Maybe I just want to fly I want to live I don't want to die Maybe I just want to breath Maybe I just don't believe | |

| He totally wrote it to John Lennon. He's talking to him, bexause he feels identified and related to him. And wants to be as famous and great as him. Obviously, artists always play with the meaning of their songs afterwards, because after playing them night after night after night, they start to read other stuff into them. But the fact that the cover of the single is a picture of the house where Lennon grew up proves my point. It's about Noel's struggle for success and recognition. | |
