| I think this is one of the best songs Oasis have ever done, and there's a fair few contenders. Has a great punk feel to it. About the song itself, I think the actual meaning is quite optimistic in contrast to what one might think when first hearing it. It really is just about following you're dreams while being realistic about it. We can't all be football players, etc. but we all have our own dreams to pursue. | |

| Sounds like beatles revloution with abit more off the wall guitar sound. Obviously a song bout having dreams as children (on par with d'yer wana be a spaceman) This songs says if you got a dream dnt let anybody put you down (boarded up every door) basically a recuring factor in noels songs live for today. Fade away means we all have dreams as children to be spacemen, footballers etc but most of us end up being office workers or whatever and the dreams we had fade away. However noels dream was to be in rock n roll band so he is saying you can do it as well. pos the best oasis? | |

| On the Warchild version (which was slow and acoustic) Johnny Depp played lead guitar. This song sounds alot like Help! (Noel's acoustic cover, at least). I love this song because its about youth and following your dreams, only to realize they'll probably never come true. Even knowing that, you follow because that's what makes life meaningful. | |

| Awesome tune, first time I heard it, I hated it. The chorus just killed me, but now I've come around. It's just a great, face-paced rock n' roll tune. | |
