Wonderwall

"Because maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all
You're my Wonderwall"

"Wonderwall" by Oasis

I love this song, but it can be really tricky to figure out the lyrics...

first I must point out one thing, that this is a song that can be interpreted in many ways, depending on the person and how the person is feeling at the moment. Noel Gallagher that has written this song, is one of the best song writers I think and he can write a song with such a depth that can go right in to the heart of everyone.

It’s so great when an artist sings with such passion. I think what makes a song great is when it really means a lot to the person that is singing it, if they can make you feel the song they've done they're job. It’s also cool when the artist says something that many people can relate too, but most people wouldn’t have been able to think of in those words themselves.

many people think of this as an love song. I totally agree because the song can mean so many thing.

So this is one way to think of this song. In a large sense it is about not being able to act on your feelings. The girl (probably a friend of the guy) that the song is about means the world to the guy, but he's unable to express his love in fear of what may happen to their friendship if he does. You are afraid to say anything personal, and even more afraid of not say anything.

then there is a other way. Noel Gallagher have said that it's a song about an imaginary friend who’s going to save you from yourself. and if you look at the lyric that fits in perfectly. He wants a person to help him with his problems but he can't find anyone. He has trouble to talk about he's problems and that's why he wants that persons help. "I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do, about you now" I think means that because he can't find anyone ells so he can be the only one that can feel anything about the imaginary person is himself.
"And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding"
The person has it hard to help you, and it says that everything that is hard In life will have some bump in the road on the way there.

so what about the definition of the word "wonderwall"?

A wonderwall i think is a person that you can talk to about everything, that understands you like no one ells, one you can share your feelings and thought to and save you from your problems. A person being there through it all. a perfect person being there through it all, and that person is just always going to be there. A very special person that makes you truly happy in your heart, makes you come alive and free and safe, a safe heaven, from the rest of world when you are with that person. And I'm really happy that I have found one of those persons in my life:)

So this is the Original "Wonderwall" and the music video is good to:)



I came across another version of the song. In the original Liam Gallagher is singing and Noel Gallagher is playing guitar. I found a live version on youtube where Noel Gallagher preforms the song by himself. Noel sings with such passion and it's so beautiful I get chills every time I see it... The two version is both really really good but no version can beat the original even thought this version is really good:)
