"Some Might Say"

Oasis - "Some Might Say" is an wonderful song, and i love it. I have heard this song many time but the past week i have listen to it a lot because of different reasons...:) and it never gets bad, never.

Noel the lead guitarist and vocalist that wrote the song said that he had no idea what this song is about. it's maybe one of does song that gives images in their songs which would inspire in peoples mind a general meaning connected to the song. A song where the listener defines the meaning through he´s/her´s life.

To me the song reminds me of people who pretend life should be lived in a robotic, well-defined and constructed set of rules. without realizing that well, life is anything but predictable. you could believe you're heading down a certain path and wound up on the wrong road no quicker than with a blink of an eye. it also echoes the fact that because life is so unpredictable, being judgmental of how someone is leading their life is probably the most ridiculous thing one can do.

This song has two massive statements about life that really appeal to me.

"Some might say that sunshine follows thunder
Go and tell it to the man who cannot shine"

- you can comfort someone by telling them Good things happen after bad things but what about the man who never has good things happen to him?

secondly.

"Some might say they don't believe in heaven
Go and tell it to the man who lives in hell"

- If we don't believe in heaven does this mean we only belive in hell and is that where were going. Tell that to the man who lives in hell. it can also be that the people that don't believe in heaven don't know that there is people in the world that lives in hell. "Go and tell it to the man that lives in hell" can be a man that is living a hard life with no happiness, hell on earth.
