| Aside from the Beatles, here's a modern-day interpretation... It's as if people are trying to copy his ways and beliefs mainly because of jealousy. He can do everything the next person can't just because the other can't deliver. So- the other tries to copy his ways and now he's mocking the other, "How does it feel when you're inside me?" Just what I think. | |

| This song is so good, its music is so uplifting, along with Liam's vocals as it was said above...It's always been one of those unknown treasures to me, that almost nobody has ever heard of. It never fails to make me smile, they were and sounded so young (and so was I :'( ) ahhhh memories.... | |

| When I was younger and first started getting into Oasis I thought the lyrics were 'He has no face, and he has no name And he's 'round about the size of a gnome' My brother took the piss for weeks... | |

| This song has such a wonderful sound to it, the guitar is immense, Whiteys drumming is at its peak and Liams voice is just so.. perfect. The only song i can think of to end the way it does, with the Gallagher growl at the top of its game. Simply superb and yet another Oasis b-side that just beats everything in the charts. | |

| I don't think oasis are trying to be the Beatles, and even if they are, i dont know why everybody seems to think that it's a terrible thing, why shouldnt they sound like the Beatles? i've said before, it's not like The Beatles are sounding like the Beatles any more. Anywasy oasis are better | |

| This song, according to Noel, is about establishment figures in England at the time (circa 1994) who didn't have a clue how things were being felt by people. Also, this is a way of reminiscing the beatles '66 period. It's fantastic. | |
