| The Masterplan has some absolutely great songs on it to say it's all B-sides? 'The Masterplan' song, I feel, could make any Oasis album! | |

| noel wrote this when he had an argument with liam in australia, and liam went home in a mood. well that's wat he said in an interview anyway. it gives more meaning to the line 'you can't give me the dreams that were mine anyway', about the fame and musical success and stuff. I love the brotherly relationship and i think it's where oasis' best songs come from. | |

| yea i truly love this song. When our family get togther, at new years and such like, my uncle and cousin will get the guitars out and they play and we all sing... its isnt at Partridge Family as it sounds but it really means alot. and of course it is the great theme tune of the excellent and sadly missed 'Royle Family'. The lyrics to me are about getting away and leaving this horrible town i live in and acheiving my goals... which are half the world away... in america actually. I can feel the warning signs because i seem to be fitting in more and more here and there are alarms going off in my head telling me not to let myself fit in or i'l stay here and i dont wanna! And i wouldnt mind to much leaving this planet as we live in a horrible world, a beleif affirmed by Comic Releif on Friday (just thought i would take that dig there) but i do think it was wirtten by Noel after an argument with Liam and so that is the real meaning but it means different things to everyone and that is howit was intended. I love it and it is one of my favourite oasis songs because of the melody, the lyrics and because it is so easy to listen to unlike alot of other oasis songs. xxx | |

| i love this song and i only realised it was oasis a couple of years ago when my folks were watching the royle family and iwas passing by the living room and just thought 'hmm, that sounds very oasisey' and i asked mum about it and she told me 'of course it's oasis, who else would it be?' so now i know. one of my favourites. | |
