Oasis: Don't Look Back in Anger (2026) Movie Script

1
Oasis! Oasis! Oasis!
Oasis! Oasis! Oasis!
And like, we were really snide,
we weren't going nowhere,
we was really crap.
And then we needed songs.
Our kid had songs.
He's got hundreds and hundreds
of songs that are just mega.
1994. This is our year,
without a shadow of a doubt,
no one can touch us this year.
All we done was got our heads down
in the rehearsal room,
asked ourselves did we wanna be
the biggest band in the world
or do we wanna go for it,
and we all went, "Yeah."
Definitely Maybe
is the fastest-selling
album in Britain's history.
I'm after it all.
I wanna be a star.
And we're lucky enough that it happened.
Hoorah.
Know what I mean?
Anyway, can I say something now?
My name's Noel. I write all the songs.
You know, it's just one of them things.
I don't write anything,
so I'm a fan of him.
Do you know what I mean? Of his music.
Onstage, I just want him--
when he turns to me and I turn to him
and, like, we just both
look at each other,
that's what it's about for us.
The best band
around at the moment.
Their popularity likened
to that of the Beatles.
A quarter
of a million rock fans
are counting the hours
till the Gallagher brothers
take the stage.
They're temperamental, they're moody.
What do you
think of rock 'n' roll today?
I think it's shit.
What happened there?
He does it all the time now.
It's part of the show.
It goes, like, "Supersonic," "Acquiesce,"
Liam walk offstage scowling.
Nothing to say,
that's what's going on.
So, why--
Have you spoken
to your brother, Liam?
Nobody gets Liam.
Liam doesn't even get Liam.
The future of the pop group
Oasis is in doubt tonight.
And it's
brother against brother.
Noel Gallagher,
the elder brother,
is flying back to Britain tonight.
The brothers
had a blazing row.
A reported fist fight.
"You had fights? Fuck.
So you've got another brother?
Hey. Are you human?"
He'd pick a fight with his own toenails.
He wants to be the man in charge.
He wants to be the main man
who's doing it.
Fuck that.
I read in interviews that
he's the greatest front man
of his generation, and like, I...
It's just Liam, he's out of control.
He's got issues.
We do get quite nasty towards each other.
He pulled out this rule book of, like...
And once
the line has been crossed...
Disgusting, honestly.
He told me to calm down.
That's it. I'm upset
the way you fucking talk...
Be the one that saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall
Listening
to Oasis for me...
it was like a superpower. It still is.
I always felt
like maybe I'm the only one
in the world that goes through
this sort of thing.
I genuinely wanna burst out
and, you know, do something about my life.
It was like an escape for me.
And then I was listening
to certain lyrics
and I'm like, "You know what?
This isn't just me, it's...
it's a lot of other people."
I think it just gave me a lifeline
and some hope,
and I needed that at that time.
"I need to be myself,
I can't be no one else,"
like, that first line
was all it took, and I...
I'm in.
People have
to accept you for who you are,
and if they don't, fuck them.
The way it finished--
unacceptable, as far as I'm concerned.
It didn't sit right with me, man.
Now, it's 15 years
since brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher
had an almighty falling-out,
and they haven't performed
together as Oasis since,
but finally, after days
of fevered speculation,
they have confirmed they are reuniting
for a series of concerts,
including two in Dublin.
It's, like,
a big step for them,
considering for years
I don't think they could even be
in the same room as each other.
What do you see him as?
What do I see him as?
pain in the arse.
A pain in the arse.
Has there
been a reconciliation
between Liam and Noel?
How did that come about,
and who blinked first?
It was no big deal,
you know what I mean?
He's making out as if
I've stabbed one of his cats.
It's like-- It's like, leave it out, mate.
It's like, we had a little argument,
you know what I mean?
Everybody's wondering,
are they gonna make it through a song?
Are they gonna make it through the set?
Let alone, are they gonna
make it through the tour?
A reunion years in the making.
Oasis. There's been a lot
of hype around this one.
And I mean, you know,
these guys are so volatile,
so anything really could happen,
a few punches to...
possibly to fly.
There's been a lot
of things that have been said
that are just like, "You're not gonna
be able to take that back."
And I was born with one
fatal flaw in my character,
which is, I will not forgive people.
I can't do it.
There's something in me that just...
I haven't got any forgiveness at all.
And that's one thing I'm not.
I'm not a yes-man, and I'm not
a hired drummer or a hired guitarist.
I'm fucking Liam Gallagher,
you know what I mean?
You won't talk to me like shit
and expect me to just lap it up.
Most thought
it would never happen,
and some still aren't convinced.
I get butterflies
thinking about it, 'cause...
it's scary.
You know, because now you've got
to live up to the fuckin'...
to the hype, you know.
- Y'alright, Bonehead?
- Yeah, man?
- Y'alright!
- Nice to see you, lad.
Noel vocal.
Hey, hey, one, two, yeah.
It's all great talking about it
saying, "We're the biggest this,
and we're the biggest that,
and we're the greatest..."
"No band could sell out a world tour
on the back of a photograph,"
and fuckin' "blah, blah, blah,"
it's like...
We've still got to do it,
still got to actually go up
there and fucking do it.
Let's see how we go.
I, um...
Obviously I'll have to sing so...
I can't tell you
The way I feel
Because the way I feel
Is oh so new to me
I can't tell you
The way I feel
Because the way I...
This is confusion
Am I confusing you?
All right, Knebworth, yeah!
This is confusion
Am I confusing you?
How do we end it?
Like... Not like that.
The bass line is too busy, Andy.
Okay.
The...
- Yeah, on the solo.
- That's... That's too busy.
Just straighten it right out.
That's what was
making me flick me hair.
I fucking love rehearsing
and I love hearing the songs.
I think it's a kind of...
I do believe.
Um, you're doing a little...
like a...
- Don't do that. Yeah.
- Okay. No problem.
- Less is more. That--
- Totally, yeah.
The most important thing is that.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Or you... If you want,
you can go, you can go...
Yeah, so...
Before the singing comes in,
there's, like, a riff.
Right.
- Could you do that?
- Yeah, of course.
And the end is...
Okay. Ready?
If I remember it correctly.
You fucking should do.
Well, I fucking should do, yeah.
...I go
I've been scratching around
In the same old hole
My body feels young
But my mind is very old
So what do you say?
You can't give me a dream
If it's mine anyway
You're half the world away
Half the world away
Leading up to this,
I would genuinely close my eyes
and think, "I cannot visualize it.
I just don't see it."
I just don't see myself onstage
with Liam in a stadium.
I just don't see it.
The experience that I had in 2009
was not fucking enjoyable to me, you know.
I don't really want to be getting...
you know, going back with the tension
and, you know, all that stuff.
Will it fall apart again?
That sounds so shitty to me.
What time's he coming in?
Uh, should be here about 1:00.
Hi!
Hey.
Get... Get rid of them fucking things.
Head straight up the stairs.
- Let me know.
- All right, Pete?
- Y'alright?
- You ready then?
Ready then?
Yo! You got it then.
Up your ass!
One, two, three, four.
I don't feel
As if I know you
You take up all my time
The days are long
And the nights
Will throw you away
'Cause the sun don't shine
Nobody ever
Mentions the weather
Can make or break your day
Nobody ever
Seems to remember
Life is a game we play
I rarely sing.
It's just pure fucking anger,
you know what I mean?
I feel like I'm exorcising demons.
Getting it all out, the rage.
I need to calm the fuck down
'cause that mic's gonna...
I'm gonna bite its fucking head off.
Take me there
Take me there
And slide away
Slide away
It was too important to split up,
you know what I mean?
We hadn't... We hadn't finished. It...
It fell off a cliff, like,
fucking like that.
You know when we do the loop, the,
"take me there, all I know
is you can take me there,
take me there, take..."
Can we just... just cut it there,
and then I'll do the outro bit, solo bit.
Wait. Say that again.
Instead of going into,
like, four "slide aways."
Right, so what...
How many "slide aways" then?
None.
All I know is
Take me there, take me there
Leave it and then I'll do the solo.
You thought about that. "There."
Get one of them out of me these days.
No, that's what I'll be doing.
"Take me there, take me there,
all I know is you can take me there."
Leave it at that?
"Take me there"? All right.
So you don't take it on board,
all these things he says over the years?
It's water off a duck's back,
it doesn't dent your confidence
or harm your ego?
Listen, I don't get
paid to listen to that idiot.
- Other people do, not me.
- Okay, okay.
I think Liam started to see himself
as a bit of a mad genius,
but he's not quite grasped
the genius bit yet.
You never
hang out with your brother?
No, I see enough of the cunt.
I'm on tour with him.
What the fuck
would I hang out with him for?
We weren't hanging out
or anything before rehearsals,
we were sort of just keeping...
just doing our thing,
you know what I mean?
We were getting high
Not necessarily stoned
But beautiful
See ya!
Bye!
He's not in tomorrow, he was saying.
Oh, great.
He's gonna do
Monday, Tuesday, he reckons.
Fucking great. A long weekend.
- Yeah.
- I'm fucked anyway.
I'm tempted with that.
It's good. Jolly good.
I fucking do care.
I care that...
I care lots and lots to not give a fuck,
if you know what I mean.
I'm like that, they go,
"Oh, you don't care."
And I'm like that, "I fucking do,"
hence why I don't give a fuck.
It takes a lot of caring
to not give a fuck.
All your dreams are made
Now you're chained
To the mirror
And the razor blade
Today's the day
That all the world will see
I know there's cunts out there,
sitting there, fucking going,
"Fucking hell, man, get a...
get that geezer a drink now,"
waiting for me to just fuck it up,
you know what I mean?
They know Noel's a pro,
you know what I mean?
They'll be probably thinking, that he's...
"If anyone's gonna fucking fuck this up,
it'll be that dickhead again."
If you're not on it,
chaos can fucking...
ensue.
Hey, if you're gonna do
Wembley the last time,
might as well do it
pissed out of your arse, yeah.
No one can ever
Hear him fall
And if you think that's good,
you fucking must be on glue.
When you open your mouth
and you sing, fucking, the first song
and you look down and you go,
"Fucking hell,
we've got another 19 of this shit to go,"
and the sound's bad,
you're thinking, "We're in for
a long fucking night."
I'm in one of them fucking moods.
You know them moods?
It's true, I am a fucking twat.
Crawl back
to your fucking hotel room
with your dick between your legs,
thinking, "Fucking hell,
that was shocking."
I'm not even having one fucking cigarette.
I'm not even gonna look
at a fucking drink.
It just won't happen, man.
I've got to be...
Them songs need to be...
They need to be...
They need to be treated
with the utmost respect.
You gotta, you gotta
You gotta make it
You gotta, you gotta
You gotta fake it
You gotta, you gotta
You gotta make it
You gotta, you gotta
You gotta fake it
We work our bollocks off
in the rehearsal room.
It's not just dialing it in a bit
and saying, "That sounds all right,
it might sound better tomorrow."
We know what we're trying to get to.
And the reason why I would
work a band in rehearsals,
so that when we get on tour,
we can just enjoy it,
like as everybody else.
Then it becomes second nature.
You can peak to nobody
in a fucking rehearsal room.
There's nothing worse than doing your best
gigs in rehearsals, you know what I mean?
You don't want that.
When Oasis split up...
things just went shit.
In general, in life, everything
just went a bit fucking weird, man.
Oh!
It just went fucking odd.
Everything went a bit peculiar.
USA!
The majority of people
are having a shit time, aren't they?
You know, there's wars
and fucking shit and...
dickheads in charge that don't seem
to know what they're doing and that.
You spent a lot of time today
looking back in anger,
but are you happy that Oasis
has decided to reform on your watch?
What can I say in relation to that?
That's very, very good.
It's a great song, but, uh, look,
let's see what happens with Oasis.
The world is a shit fucking place,
you know, and people more than ever now...
they want to escape.
Oasis back in action.
One of
the world's biggest rock bands...
It is the day that
millions of Oasis fans...
So many people
will be desperate to see them.
A completely different scale.
There's gonna be
so much hype and excitement...
Liam and Noel Gallagher
will reunite on stage.
And it all begins tonight.
- In Cardiff.
- In Cardiff.
- In Cardiff.
- In Cardiff.
Will it live up to the hype?
And will they get through it without
falling out? That's the big question.
Anyone? Have your bucket hats.
- Cash or card.
- Cash or card.
Anyone? Have your bucket hats.
Cash or card.
Is that everyone now?
Happy days, in you come.
Okay. Why are we here today?
Unless you're under a rock,
we're here for Oasis.
Um, opening day of the tour.
Um, they haven't played
together for 15 years.
Because they haven't
played together for so long,
the promoters have assessed the crowd.
I'm going to read it out to you
'cause it's very unusual.
I've never heard this before.
"Highly excitable, adrenaline-filled,
unpredictable..."
...about the way I feel
Tonight
I'm a rock 'n' roll star
"...and exhibit a herd mentality,
similar to that of a football crowd."
Tonight
I'm a rock 'n' roll star
That's what we're dealing with
today, guys.
Is it likely that the vehicles
will be coming in as one, in convoy,
or it's still the unknown at the moment?
Well... We don't know.
It is the great unknown. Um...
Definitely Maybe.
Do you like what I did there?
"Whatever."
Um, these plans are fluid,
and we have just got to "Roll With It."
Okay, I'll stop there on those.
Any questions, guys?
Any issues with that so far?
Okay.
That's "The Masterplan."
And I want you to say
"Do you know
What I'm sayin'?"
Sixteen years I've been waiting for this,
gentlemen, 16 years.
'Cause I'll be you
And you'll be me
I'm gonna go fucking crazy, man.
Sorry to swear.
There's lots and lots
For us to see
It's like the rebirth of Christ
or something, if you were there.
She is electric
Can I be electric too?
Since I was born, my mum was playing
"Wonderwall" to me when I was three.
I just think they're a couple of wankers,
and so are we. Do you know what I mean?
It was like losing a child for me.
Definitely! When they split up.
But when they got back together,
that was it for me.
I thought, "Right,
I gotta find me Fred Perry."
No, seriously, seriously.
Find me Fred Perry.
Get on it. Get right on it.
No one knows the setlist.
No one knows what's going to happen.
I wish I could be in that stadium
just to feel that thing rising
when it's getting to 9 o'clock,
and you kind of know it's coming.
I'll tell you what
it ain't gonna be like.
I said, you know, when people go to gigs
and they go, "You know what,
that fucking guitar chord
there was great."
There'll be none of that
scratching your chin nonsense.
It's gonna be fucking chaos,
you know what I mean?
You won't come away going,
"You know what, they sang really well"
or "They played really..."
It's just going to be fucking carnage.
There. Here they are...
We've got a chance here.
We've got a chance to change
the narrative of the band.
And we've got a chance to fix
all the shit that we've just let...
you know, we've just let drift apart.
Oasis vibes in the area.
Cardiff vibes in the area.
I love it
Room for everybody here
Yes, all are welcome
Yes indeed, I love them
Fun, nice, life...
I don't feel
As if I know you
You take up all my time
The days are long
And the nights
Will throw you away
'Cause the sun don't shine
Nobody ever
Mentions the weather
Can make or break your day
Nobody ever
Seems to remember
Life is a game we play
We live in the shadows
And we had the chance
And threw it away
And it's never
Going to be the same
'Cause the years
Are falling by
Like the rain
It's never gonna
Be the same
Till the life I knew
Comes to my house
And says, "Hello"
There ain't no sense
In feeling lonely
They got no faith in you
But I've got a feeling
You still owe me
So wipe the shit
From your shoes
Nobody ever
Mentions the weather
Can make or break your day
Nobody ever
Seems to remember
Life is a game we play
We live in the shadows
And we had the chance
And threw it away
And it's never gonna
Be the same
'Cause the years
Are falling by
Like the rain
It's never gonna
Be the same
Till the life I knew
Comes to my house
And says
"Hello, hello"
Says
"It's good to be back"
"Good to be back"
Hello, hello
Says
"It's good to be back"
"Good to be back"
Hello, hello
Says
"It's good to be back"
"Good to be back"
Hello, hello, hello
I was a mess playing that song.
I don't even know how I played it.
The first 40 minutes went by.
I didn't even know where the fuck I was,
you know, I was like...
I genuinely would have liked
to have called a time-out and gone,
"Can I just go back to the dressing room
and have five minutes?"
And go, "Right, okay,
I've grossly underestimated this."
I could see he was nervous, man.
I could see that when
we first went on in Cardiff,
he, you know,
he was a bit like, "Fucking what...
Fucking hell?" You know what I mean?
But, and I'm not being
big-headed and that,
I wasn't... I was fucking right...
I was right up for it.
Now that you're mine
We'll find a way
Of chasing the sun
Let me be the one
That shines with you
And in the morning
We don't know what to do
We're two of a kind
We'll find a way
Just do what we've done
So let me be the one
Who shines with you
And we can slide away
Slide away
Slide away
Slide away
I don't know, I don't care
All I know
Is you can take me there
I don't know, I don't care
All I know
Is you can take me there
I don't know, I don't care
All I know
Is you can take me there
I don't know, I don't care
All I know
Is you can take me there
Take me there
Take me there
Take me there
Take me there
Take me there
Take me there
All I know
Is you can take me there
Take me there
Take me there
Take me there
Take me there
Take me there
Take me there
What for?
Yes, beautiful people,
been too long.
The final run-through,
the night before the thing,
I didn't see him.
All right. Okay.
The next thing is one of the biggest
fucking moments of our lives, right?
And he's not rehearsed and I'm like...
okay.
He turned up 20 minutes before the gig.
"All right? What's catering like?"
"Yeah, it's great."
The next thing,
we're getting ready to go on.
And I'm like, "How the fuck
is this going to... What the fuck?"
And then he grabs my hand
and I'm like, "What the fuck?" And...
And off he goes. And it's, like...
sounded like he was,
you know, 30 years young.
Just rocked up and did it.
And it was like, "Wow. Fuckin' hell.
You absolute fuckin' mad cunt."
You got to put your big boy
fucking pants on, innit,
and just fucking go for it.
Tonight
I'm a rock 'n' roll star
Tonight
I'm a rock 'n' roll star
Tonight
I'm a rock 'n' roll star
Yeah, you fucking are!
It's just rock 'n' roll
It's just rock 'n' roll
It's just rock 'n' roll
It's just rock 'n' roll
Fuckin' hell. We're back.
Just rock 'n' roll
Just rock 'n' roll
Just rock 'n' roll
I certainly wasn't prepared for
the intense outpouring of joy
and tears and...
the sense that, yeah...
the sense that...
of what it meant to people.
I think that was it.
It was like... the...
the gravity hit me of
what it meant to people
and it took me by surprise,
I've got to say.
It actually knocked me back.
The songs now seem to mean more
to a new generation
than it meant to our generation
which is... I...
How do we get to the bottom of that?
It was like someone had bottled up
exactly how I felt
and just give it to me, you know?
Like they kicked the door in
and said, "This is you."
And... It was like... it was
almost like, listening to it,
it was like they were singing about me.
My God, this is Oasis, you know?
And I must have just listened
to that album and that cassette
over and over and over again.
Until all the tape was coming out
and you had to wind it back in
with a pencil.
Every single time I hear it start,
it takes me right back to being 17.
Just on the edge of adulthood,
freedom of what my life would become.
That's a kind of magic
I don't think people get often.
One day, he asked me
to put on "Talk Tonight."
I'm like, "Why do you want that on?"
And he says, "That's my favorite song."
Mummy, can I have...
shorts?
Look this way.
No more laughing.
Just a smile.
A little smile. Smile.
They told me he couldn't remember.
They told me he didn't know
what was going on. You know?
It was a shock.
And that was in his head,
hearing that wee song,
"Talk Tonight." You know?
I don't want to cry.
Do you know what I mean?
Your child can't talk, they're nonverbal
and they're hearing a wee song,
"Talk Tonight," and that's
all they want to do, is talk.
I wanna talk tonight
Until the morning light
'Bout how you
Saved my life
The date is
Friday the 11th of July 2025.
I was on the bus back home
from my parents' in Moston.
I looked out and there they were.
Crowds of people,
hundreds of them,
walking with purpose.
Bucket hats on their heads,
parka jackets on their back.
It looked and felt
a bit like a pilgrimage.
And when you see men, women,
teenagers, arm in arm,
some literally singing
into each other's eyes,
it speaks to something deeper.
A shared longing for healing.
Fans without tickets
for tonight's Oasis show
are being advised
to stay away from Heaton Park.
Huge crowds attended the weekend concerts,
but large groups of fans
gathered on a nearby hill
hoping to catch a glimpse
of the performances
without a ticket.
Manchester
Na, na, na, Manchester
This is a celebration
of the people coming together,
and this park is owned
by the Manchester people.
Oasis... God love them, I love them,
paid for a certain section of that park.
The rest of it is open to us,
Manchester residents,
and we're coming in the park
whether you like it or not.
All right? As you were.
You think
you will be fulfilled,
but when you come back from this concert
you will be empty again.
Watch your fucking balls on there.
Oh, I know.
Watch your balls! Watch your balls!
- Jesus Christ... is all.
- Yes!
Yes!
There's nothing like Manchester.
It's got its own thing.
It's like an island.
Celebrate your culture,
and if the worst thing
that comes out of this, right,
is a load of kids pick up
a guitar and start a band,
I'm all for it.
I'm all for it.
I'm all for it.
Pick up a guitar and not a knife.
That's me lasting message.
Oasis!
Oasis couldn't have
come from anywhere else.
And if we did come from
anywhere else, we'd be shit.
Imagine if I'd have had
a West Country accent,
and I was saying, "We're gon'
be biggest band in the world."
It's not gonna fucking work, mate.
So we are absolutely
a product of Manchester.
Hello and good evening to Manchester.
There's lots of bands
who represent the council estates.
But one band came along
that behaved like them,
talked like them,
drank like them,
did the same drugs as them,
wore the same casual wear,
went to football,
and, here's the fucking difficult bit...
the fucking tunes were great as well.
Things were...
Things were easier then,
life was a lot simpler.
And that's where
today's gospel lands.
Peter asks Jesus,
"Lord, how many times must
I forgive my brother
if he sins against me?"
Seven times?
And Jesus replies, "Not seven,
but seventy times seven."
In other words, forgive endlessly.
The crowd at Heaton Park
didn't just show up for the music,
they came for the reconciliation
between Noel and Liam
two brothers, long estranged,
now sharing the same stage.
Right then, so I've been hearing
there's loads of people over there
behind some hill or summat.
Yeah, I wanna dedicate this tune to them.
Yeah.
Right, so if you lot are listening
on the fucking hill...
Some might say
That sunshine
Follows thunder
Go and tell it to the man
Who cannot shine
Some might say
That we should never ponder
On our thoughts today 'cause
They hold sway over time
Some might say
We will find a brighter day
Some might say
We will find
A brighter day, yeah
'Cause I've been standin'
At the station
In need of education
In the rain
You made no preparation
For my reputation once again
The sink is full of fishes
She's got dirty dishes
On the brain
It was overflowing gently
But it's all elementary
My friend
"Some Might Say"
is one of the most Irish songs
of all time.
You know. It's...
...the tune itself is full of hope,
but when you look, the words are
kind of like, fuckin' hell.
The song's full of melancholy.
You know, and it's kind of
the Irish thing.
You know, they're
the only race in the world
that can fight,
laugh, drink, smoke and eat,
all at the same time.
The lag lay sleepin'
Humpy Gussy was creepin'
As I lay there weeping
For my good girl Sal
And the old triangle
Went jingle jangle...
Both our parents are Irish,
both our grandparents,
both our great grandparents.
We are Irish apart from
geographically, right?
So... we feel it.
I was moved to tears
backstage before.
Both me and Bonehead, actually.
When we came out to the Luke Kelly song.
When you heard the crowd singing it...
and it's one of my favorite
songs of all time.
It was just a real special moment.
...triangle
Went jingle jangle
All along the banks
Of the Royal Canal
All along the banks
Of the Royal Canal
One of the words
you would sum Oasis up
in saying, that we are defiant.
In the face of working-class poverty
and shit surroundings and...
you know, the struggle to make it.
That Irish thing.
You've gotta roll with it
You gotta take your time
You gotta say what you say
Don't let any fucker
Get in your way
'Cause it's all too much
For me to take
Don't ever stand aside
Don't ever be denied
You wanna be who you'd be
If you're comin' with me
I think I've got a feeling
I've lost inside
I think I'm gonna
Take me away and hide
I'm thinkin' of things
That I just can't abide
I know the road down which
Your life will drive
Which your life will drive
I find the key
That lets you slip inside
Lets you slip inside
Kiss the girl
She's not behind the door
She's not behind the door
You know, I think
I recognize your face
But I've never
Seen you before
You've gotta roll with it
You've gotta take your time
You gotta say what you say
Don't let any fucker
Get in your way
'Cause it's all too much
For me to take, yeah
Don't ever stand aside
Don't ever be denied
You wanna be who you'd be
If you're comin' with me
I think I've got a feeling
I've lost inside
I think I've got a feeling
I've lost inside
I think I've got a feeling
I've lost inside
I think I've got a feeling
I've lost inside
Obrigado.
All your dreams are made
Now you're chained
To the mirror
And the razor blade
Today's the day
That all the world will see
Another sunny afternoon
Now I've been walking to
The sound of my favorite tune
I haven't played
with Bonehead since 1997, you know.
1997, yeah, so, uh...
That was a big thing for me,
you know what I mean?
When we were down at rehearsals,
I had a bad back,
I couldn't pick up a guitar
for a couple of weeks,
so I was just listening.
I was fucking blown away.
I was like "fucking hell."
I never knew he had a thing,
but fucking hell he's got a thing.
He's got a thing.
And he is a massive, massive part
not only of the sound
but of the dynamic of the band as well.
But he's also
a piss-taking little cunt.
Flicking my ear
before I walk on stage.
I'm like that... You're getting a slap.
If you do
that again, I'm telling ya!
I'm like that, you fucker!
What was that sound
Ringing around your brain?
Today was just a blur
You've got a head
Like a ghost train
What was that sound
Ringing around your brain?
You're here on your own
Who you gonna find to blame?
You're the outcast
You're the underclass
But you don't care
Because you're living fast
You're the uninvited guest
Who stays till the end
I know you've got a problem
That the devil sends
You think they're
Talking 'bout you
But you don't know who
I'll be scraping
Their lives
From the sole
Of my shoe tonight
Bring it on down
Bring it down for me
You know when he left in '98,
we spent 11 years chasing that sound.
Bring it on down
Bring it down for me
Your head's in a fish tank
Your body and your mind
Can't breathe
He is the fucking sound of Oasis.
You're the outcast
You're the underclass
But you don't care
Because you're living fast
You're the uninvited guest
Who stays till the end
I know you've got a problem
That the devil sends
You think they're
Talking 'bout you
But you don't know who
I'll be scraping
Their lives
From the sole
Of my shoe tonight
Slowly walkin'
Down the hall
Faster than a cannonball
Where were you
While we were gettin' high?
Someday
You will find me...
Why, why, why, why?
The music,
you know it changed my life,
and it's changed other people's lives,
and it means a lot to them.
But I know we are only a band, really,
and that, you know, we're only people
in the scheme of things, but...
I know we're an important band,
I do know that.
But... you can only do what
you do, you know what I mean?
We're not fucking superheroes.
We're just vessels.
You can't fucking cure cancer.
All we can do is do our jobs.
And let the music then be the power
for the fucking superhero.
Hopefully it'll wash away some crap
or it'll ignite something,
you know what I mean?
But if you think you can do anything more
than being just in the band,
you'll come a cropper,
you know what I mean?
You just gotta go on there, do your thing,
do it well,
and try and move people, man.
People more than ever now
they wanna escape, and...
they wanna be elevated out of their...
their surroundings...
Sky News, rolling Sky News,
and the tension in the world, and all that
and everyone's broke.
They wanna be transported somewhere else.
And if you can do that, you should.
I don't know what it is
That makes me feel alive
I don't know how to wake
The things that sleep inside
I only wanna see the light
That shines behind your eyes
I hope that I can say
The things I wish I'd said
To sing my soul to sleep
And take me back to bed
Who wants to be alone when
We can feel alive instead
Because we need each other
We believe in one another
And I know
We're going to uncover
What's sleepin'
In our soul
Because we need each other
We believe in one another
I know
We're going to uncover
What's sleepin'
In our soul
What's sleepin'
In our soul
Being able to completely,
unapologetically be yourself,
say what you wanna say,
is very, very valuable.
And that's the reason why "Whatever" has
such a deep, deep place in my heart...
Um...
You listen to "Live Forever" like,
"I think you're the same as me,
we see things they'll never see."
If that's not friendship
summed up in two lines
and that's what friendship
is about, and that's...
to me that line
is the spirit of Oasis fandom.
Because we need each other
We believe in one another
As a songwriter,
that's what you wanna be.
You wanna be writing songs
that other people take from you
and stick it into their lives
and say, "It's mine now."
And it just
Don't matter now
Little by little
We gave you everything
You ever dreamed of
Little by little
The wheels of your
Life have slowly fallen off
Little by little
You have to give it all
In all your life
And all the time
I just asked myself
Why you really here?
Little by little
We gave you everything
You ever dreamed of
Little by little
The wheels of your life
Have slowly fallen off
Little by little
You have to give it all
In all your life
And all the time
I just asked myself
Why you really here?
Why am I really here?
Why am I really here?
When he was
writing them songs, he just...
whatever it is, he's obviously
fucking tapped into
some fucking madness.
Or some mad shit, along the way,
and the proof is in the pudding,
that people still want it,
you know what I mean?
Those songs that are in that set,
I've long since let them go.
Actually hearing them on stage has re--
They mean something else now,
do you know what I mean?
It fascinates me that, you know,
I would sit and write these songs
and, you know, decades later,
the most disparate bunch of people
are all getting different things from it.
It's the power of music.
Today was gonna be the day
But they'll never
Throw it back to you
By now
You should've somehow
Realized
What you got to do
I don't believe
That anybody
Feels the way I do
About you now
And all the roads that lead
You there are winding
And all the lights that
Light the way are blinding
There are many things that I
Would like to say to you
But I don't
Speak Argentinish
I said, "Maybe
You're gonna be the one
That saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall"
- I said, "Maybe"
- I said, "Maybe"
You're gonna be
The one that saves me
That saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall
- I said, "Maybe"
- I said, "Maybe"
You're gonna be the one
That saves me
That saves me
You're gonna be the one
That saves me
That saves me
You're gonna be
The one that saves me
That saves me
You know, there's two Liams,
there's the guy that turns up
at rehearsals, you know,
and then there's the guy on stage
who balances the tambourine on his head
and makes it look cool.
You know if I did that...
...you'd just look like an utter cunt.
Right?
But somehow, he does it and it's like...
it's the greatest thing I've ever seen.
Yeah. And...
I'd forgotten what he means to people.
You know, the songs are one thing,
but then there's what he means to them.
Supersonic.
I don't want
to upset people, but...
I'd upset me if I fucking changed my tune,
you know what I mean, like?
It's like, that's who I am,
you know what I mean?
And people are going,
"Oh, well, you know, you'll get canceled."
I don't give a fuck.
I need to be myself
I can't be no one else
I'm feeling supersonic
Give me gin and tonic
You can have it all
But how much do you want it?
You make me laugh
Give me your autograph
Can I ride with you
In your BMW?
You can sail with me
In my yellow submarine
You need to find out
'Cause no one's gonna
Tell you what I'm on about
You need to find a way
For what you want to say
But before tomorrow
'Cause my friend said
He'd take you home
He sits in a corner
All alone
He lives under a waterfall
Nobody can see him
Nobody can ever
Hear him call
Nobody can ever
Hear him call
The first line of an Oasis song is,
"I need to be myself,
I can't be no one else..."
That's a fucking credo
he's lived his entire fucking life by.
The first thing he ever sang
is his way of life.
He is who he is
and that's the end of that.
And he's not gonna change.
It's taken us all fucking years to go,
"He's not gonna come to us,
we'll have to go to him."
I forgot how-- Yeah, I forgot
how funny he was.
Another little bit of magic.
Fucking something goes right,
just fucking stand still
because when you get--
'cause you're gonna be doing this
when you're fucking sixty,
and you're going to have
two double-hip operations,
you don't wanna be doing
that Mick Jagger shit.
Mick Jagger must sit there
one night and go,
"I can't be fucking arsed
with this 'Jumpin' Jack Flash' nonsense.
I just want to just fucking stand there
and do my fucking thing."
But he's got to go out there
and fucking do kung fu kicks
and fucking the splits
and shit and all that type,
like David Lee Roth, and all that.
He must sit there and go,
"I can't be arsed with this tonight."
Well, I might-- But I've just--
All we got to do is just stand there
and do our fucking thing. It's genius.
Didn't fucking mention the Pozna.
Mention any of that.
Right then, beautiful people.
I want you to do us a favor.
I don't ask much.
I want you to turn round,
hold each other in the arms,
do the Pozna to this tune.
Come on. It's easy,
you don't need GCSEs, man.
Turn around.
Every single one of you, turn around.
Now obviously, I didn't ask you
to put your hands in the fucking air
and clap out of time.
I didn't, did I?
I just did it and you did it.
And I've never asked you to do
the Mexican wave, have I?
I'm not one of them guys who say,
"Put your hands up in the air
and wave them like
you just don't fucking care,"
and all that bollocks.
But I need you to turn around.
Turn around. Turn around.
Turn around. Around. Around.
Turn around. Everyone in the stands.
All you posh fuckers.
Gotta turn around,
put your arms around
each other and jump up.
Give each other a squeeze.
Give each other a little cuddle.
Remember there's loads of Scousers
in the house tonight...
...and when your back is turned,
they'll fucking have your pockets,
your phones and shit, so be careful.
Everyone in the stadium,
in the posh seats, the cheap seats...
There is no cheap seats. Sorry about that.
And jump up and down. Dead easy.
And this, ladies and gentlemen,
is called the Pozna.
You're fucking welcome.
Is it my imagination
Or have I finally found
Something worth living for?
I was looking
For some action
But all I found
Was cigarettes and alcohol
You could wait
For a lifetime
To spend your days
In the sunshine
You might as well
Do the white line
'Cause when it
Comes on top
You gotta make it happen
You gotta make it happen
You gotta make it happen
You gotta make it happen
There are no words, beautiful people.
You've silenced me.
You've silenced me.
Is it worth
The aggravation
To find yourself a job
When there's nothing
Worth working for?
You fucking know it.
It's a crazy situation
But all I need are
Cigarettes and alcohol
You could wait
For a lifetime
To spend your days
In the sunshine
You might as well
Do the white line
'Cause when it
Comes on top
You gotta make it happen
You gotta make it happen
You gotta make it happen
You gotta make it happen
Yeah
You gotta, you gotta
You gotta make it
You gotta, you gotta
You gotta fake it
You gotta, you gotta
You gotta make it
You gotta, you gotta
You gotta fake it
I've been on tour with my boys
for three or four months now.
Me and our kid were laughing at...
Donovan's in the big league now, right?
He's eighteen, and, uh... he got hammered.
We got into the van,
Donovan's in the back,
puking into a plastic bag
while singing "Rock 'n' Roll Star."
Sonny's just sat beside him going, "Fuck!"
He's, "I'm a rock 'n' roll"...
And it reminded me so much of me and Liam.
I was saying to Liam, "That's us."
In the '90s, could easily stay up
till four o'clock in the morning
drinking Guinness, anywhere.
- Yeah.
- Now...
Now it's five to four.
Knock it on the head at five to four.
Uh...
Well, getting older
and all that, you can't...
just can't do it the way...
certainly can't do it
the way we did it in the '90s.
That was fucking unbelievable.
And the thing is, as well,
it's like, you know
what I mean? It's like...
you just get sick of your fucking...
the same shit
that comes out of your mouth.
Years ago, everything that
come out your mouth was mega.
You know what I mean?
Or what come out your mate's mouth
was mega as well, you know what I mean?
But after a bit, you just get...
you cotton on to yourself, don't you,
and go, "I'm full of shit."
I am full... I'm full
of shit. He's full of shit.
He knows I'm full of shit
and I know he's full...
and you're just like that,
"I'm going to fucking bed, mate,"
because I've heard
this fucking conversation
a million times before.
But when you're 20, it's the fucking...
it's the gospel, innit?
Nostalgia seems to be
a bad word these days.
I haven't got a problem with
that, you know what I mean?
It's what it's about, innit?
It's nice to go... keep going back
on little stages of your life.
A lot of it is Oasis,
you know what I mean?
So it's nice for me to go back
and relive them things as well.
Some people here are saying
you've got an arrogant attitude.
Oh, I have, that's what
makes Oasis, innit?
I went to see The Roses in 1989.
The Roses for me was my youth.
I had a spliff,
lent against the fucking bar.
Everyone was losing their shit.
I might have nodded my head
every now and again.
Blew a smoke ring out.
But after that gig, I went home
and I started Oasis.
We were getting
the plane to So Paulo.
My phone was ringing.
And usually I let it ring out.
But it kept ringing,
and you could see it was different people.
I was like, "Fucking hell."
And they were all from Manchester,
and I was like, "What the fuck?"
Now, Gary Mounfield, "Mani,"
bassist with The Stone Roses
died suddenly today.
He was 63.
And for a generation of music fans,
he was one of the greats.
Sad, man.
I just still can't get me head
round that he's like...
It's like... I'm like, "What the fuck?"
I couldn't believe it.
I couldn't...
I've known Mani
since before I was in Oasis.
It was a shock. I've got to say,
it was a real, real, real shock.
Right, and I want to dedicate
this to our dear friend,
our hero, the one and only
Gary "Mani" Mounfield.
Maybe
I don't really wanna know
How your garden grows
'Cause I just wanna fly
Lately
Did you ever feel the pain
In the morning rain
As it soaks you
To the bone?
Maybe I will never be
All the things
That I'd like to be
Now is not the time to cry
Now's the time
To find out why
I think you're
The same as me
We see things
They'll never see
You and I are
Gonna live forever
Maybe
I don't really wanna know
How your garden grows
'Cause I just wanna fly
Lately
Did you ever feel the pain
In the morning rain
As it soaks you
To the bone?
Maybe I just wanna fly
Wanna live
I don't wanna die
Maybe I just wanna breathe
Maybe I just don't believe
Maybe you're
The same as me
We see things
They'll never see
You and I are
Gonna live forever
Gonna live forever
Gonna live forever
We're gonna live forever
You're gonna live forever
We're gonna live forever
You're gonna live forever
Mani was genuinely
happy for everybody's success.
He fucking loved Oasis.
On the eve of the tour, he was like,
"You guys are gonna fucking smash it."
He was a great mate and a funny fucker.
And, yeah, we're gonna miss him.
It's very sad, man.
Very sad.
But it's life, innit?
You know what I mean?
This is why everything's fucking precious.
The penny has dropped.
No more bullshit anymore.
A number of people have died
and others have been injured
in a reported explosion
at Manchester Arena
during a pop concert...
...at about
quarter to 11:00 this evening,
at the end of an Ariana Grande concert.
It almost felt like
when you jump into a pool
and water goes in your ears.
I think 'cause I was in so much shock,
my body didn't register the pain.
When all of the nurses and
doctors were waiting for me
at the front of the hospital
and, like, whizzed me in,
I thought, "This is serious."
Something that
I really struggled with
was survivor's guilt.
Like, the people who had been injured
and the people who had sadly passed away
and lost their lives.
I felt a lot of guilt about that.
I saw the vigil
and all the flowers being laid
and I wanted to go pay my respect
to the people who wasn't
as lucky as I was.
You ain't ever
Gonna burn my heart out
And so, Sally can wait
She knows it's too late
The lyrics
of the song I think reflect
what the people of Manchester
want to embody.
You have to take that mindset
of not looking back in anger.
But don't look
Back in anger
I heard you say
Yeah, my life
might have changed,
but it shouldn't just be something
that I'm angry for
for the rest of my life.
It was... I've never heard it live before.
It was really surreal
to hear that in Wembley.
Um, and I think it felt a bit out-of-body.
Like, it felt so moving and
like everyone was together.
If this is your
first time seeing Oasis...
...yeah...
and you've ever wondered
what it would be like
to sing this next song with
a load of other Oasis fans,
you're about to fucking find out.
You ready?
Slip inside
The eye of your mind
Don't you know
You might find
A better place to play
You said that
You'd never been
But all the things
That you've seen
Are gonna fade away
I start a revolution
From my bed
You said the brains I had
Went to my head
Step outside
'Cause summertime's in bloom
Stand up
Beside the fireplace
Take that look
From off your face
You ain't ever gonna
Burn my heart out
Can you sing it, Cardiff?
And so, Sally can wait
She knows it's too late
As we're walkin' on by
I'm glad to see Noel doing it again
and singing, you know.
They're his songs, you know what I mean?
They've come from his soul.
So, I'm glad to see him on stage...
watching that reaction from his fans
because he deserves it
and the songs deserve it.
Take me to the place
Where you go
Where nobody knows
If it's night or day
Please don't put your life
In the hands
Of a rock 'n' roll band
Who'll throw it all away
Start a revolution
From my bed
You said the brains I had
Went to my head
Step outside
'Cause summertime's in bloom
When my kids met his kids,
they didn't know each other.
They'd never met.
Donovan and Sonny had
never met Gene and Lennon.
And lo and behold, they're
fucking best friends now.
They're all fucking loving it.
They're all fucking off
their heads every night, man.
Fucking spangled every night,
and I'm there,
"Yeah, was it good, was it?"
"Oh, yeah. It was fucking...
It was fucking..."
I'm like that, I'm like,
"See you later. I'm off for a bath."
...as we're walkin' on by
Her soul slides away
But don't look back
In anger
I heard you say
So, Sally can wait
She knows it's too late
As she's walkin' on by
Her soul slides away
But don't look back
In anger
I heard you say
So, Sally can wait
She knows it's too late
As we're walkin' on by
Her soul slides away
Don't look back in anger
Don't look back in anger
- Don't look back in anger
- You what?
Don't look back in anger
Don't look back in anger
Don't look back in anger
Don't look back in anger
Don't look back in anger
We've gotta go.
Don't look back in anger
For fuck's sake.
Don't look back in anger
We haven't got...
We haven't got all night.
Don't look back in anger
Don't look back in anger
But don't look back
In anger
Don't look back in anger
I heard you say
At least not today
Thank you!
I still can't really
get my head around it,
if I'm being honest,
because the Oasis thing
never really went away,
but I didn't think it'd be this enormous.
I didn't think we'd be looking
at all of these stadiums
all over the world.
You know, you were right underneath it.
It was just like a huge waterfall
of this fucking thing.
Watching 90,000 people having this
fucking religious experience.
It's quite an emotional kind of,
"fucking hell," we did--
It's fucking heavy shit, man,
when you think about it like that.
And-And after all the bullshit
that they've gone... that this band...
This band would fucking
put you in a nuthouse.
Do you know what I mean?
All that, you know...
For them to keep the faith that long,
you know what I mean?
I'd have been like that, "Fuck off."
"Stick your songs up
your fucking arse, you shower..."
"You shower of cunts.
Doing our heads in for 30 fucking years."
You know what I mean?
The love for it has been amazing.
The energy, every second
is fucking mind blowing.
Most of the press have
never really understood
what Oasis was.
I don't half the fucking time.
I don't know what it is,
but I know what it isn't.
You know, it's not... It's not
some fucking right-wing thing.
- Do you know what I mean?
- Is it fuck.
It's like, all are welcome.
You know, all are fucking welcome.
It's about the "we" and "us."
You know, "We will find
a brighter day," you know.
You know, uh, "You could spend a lifetime
to spend your day in the sunshine."
Do you know what I mean?
It's about... It's about us.
For me, some of them are very aggressive.
And I don't...
And I don't know why.
I've tried to sing them fucking quietly
and nice and chilled, but it's fucking...
I just laugh at myself.
When we finished the British leg,
we were all saying,
"That's been amazing.
America might be a bit lukewarm."
We've finally fucking woke America up.
They tried to keep us apart
but look at us now.
America-Oasis, the new hot couple, yeah?
You know, I'm looking
out on stage every night
to a sea of people who are under 30.
There's this outpouring,
and they're singing these
songs, crying their eyes out
and it's like, fucking...
It wasn't like this in the '90s.
And... I don't know. It's a... It's a...
It's a fascinating thing.
It turns out that Oasis generation
took the music to their hearts
and gave it to their children.
The gigs were great
because we made them great.
Us and the crowd.
You know, what you're playing
is moving these people
to tears.
And in return, it's moving you to tears.
I turned my back on the audience
quite a lot on this tour
because there's been, you know...
You see like fathers and sons.
That gets me all the time.
You never get the chance
to change the narrative.
The narrative of the band was,
"Great. Chaos. Great..."
You know, "Always some
fucking shit happening."
Now, the story of the band is,
- "Fucking great. Chaos."
- Exactly.
"But fucking hell when they came back."
Exactly.
You know, this tour
fixed a lot of things.
Right then, beautiful people, this is it.
This is it.
I wanna thank a few people,
man, so give us a minute.
I obviously wanna thank our kid.
Bonehead.
Andy, Gem.
Joey, Christian.
But most of all, I wanna
thank fucking you lot, man,
for putting this band back on the map.
We love you.
Thanks for all your energy.
And thank you for sticking
with us over the years.
"Champagne Supernova."
Nice one for coming out.
How many
Special people change?
How many lives
Are livin' strange?
Where were you
While we were gettin' high?
Slowly walkin'
Down the hall
Faster than a cannonball
Where were you
While we were gettin' high?
Someday you will find me
Caught beneath
The landslide
In a champagne supernova
In the sky
Someday you will find me
Caught beneath
The landslide
In a champagne supernova
A champagne supernova
In the sky
Wake up the dawn
And ask her why
A dreamer dreams
She never dies
Wipe that tear away now
From your eye
Slowly walkin'
Down the hall
Faster than a cannonball
Where were you
While we were getting high?
Someday you will find me
Caught beneath
The landslide
In a champagne supernova
In the sky
Someday you will find me
Caught beneath
The landslide
In a champagne supernova
A champagne supernova
'Cause people believe
That they're gonna get away
For the summer
But you and I
We live and die
The world's still
Spinning 'round
We don't know why
Why, why, why, why?
How many
Special people change?
How many lives
Are living strange?
Where were you
While we were getting high?
We were getting high
We were getting high
We were getting high
We were getting high
We were getting high
Not necessarily stoned
But beautiful
All the little things
that used to annoy us about each other
are suddenly all gone away, you know.
They're all gone away.
To bring it back to life,
you know, and to enjoy it.
And it's not a power struggle anymore.
You know, we...
we come at it now as equals.
See you later.
Take care of yourselves.
Fucking love yous, man.
It feels like a weight's been lifted.
We all said shit that we didn't fucking...
And even as it was
coming out of our mouth,
we never fucking meant half of this shit.
You know what I mean?
But that... that's the way it is,
you know what I mean? When you...
You know, when you miss people.
We never used to hang out.
We never used to text each other
about the shit that you'd see on the TV.
But now we are texting
each other stupid videos
just like two fucking mates would,
do you know what I mean?
We're in contact
way, way, way, way, way
more often than we ever were.
It was all...
It was all forgiven without saying a word.
I use this word to describe
what he's been like
which is a word I'd never,
ever, ever thought
I'd use to describe him,
which is delightful.
The music brought us back together.
Oasis, man. Oasis saves.
Beautiful.
Beautiful.
You ain't gonna get
through this fucking life
by not making mistakes
because you're not...
we're not fucking robots,
do you know what I mean?
So, go out. Have fun.
Get up in the morning,
do your fucking day's graft.
Don't be a cunt. Do you know what I mean?
And if you're gonna be a cunt,
be a funny cunt.
Live your life
and have a good fucking time
and try not to listen
to the fucking doom gloomers
like politicians and that,
you know what I mean?
Go and do your graft, fucking
sort people out. Help...
You know, and that... and
that's what life's all about.
So if there's any of that to
come from it, I'm all for it,
but the main thing is
put your fucking phones down,
that's a start, you know what I mean?
And sing your hearts out,
and have a good time
and get drunk and fall over
and fucking piss your pants.
Who gives a shit?
There's always tomorrow to fucking...
You know what I mean?
And make a fucking mess,
there's always tomorrow
to clean that mess up,
you know what I mean?
It's bigger than me and Noel.
It doesn't belong to us.
Does it? You know.
We're part of it, you know
what I mean? But it...
It belongs to us all,
you know what I mean?
But it's... It's come from summat else.
Whatever that is, we don't know,
but that's the beautiful thing
and we might find out
and we may not find out one day,
you know what I mean?
And we don't need
to know everything in life.
So we might know and we might not.
And we might not be meant
to know what things are about.
And I'm-I'm kind of all right
with that as well,
you know what I mean?
Best concert I've ever seen.
Fair do's Liam and Noel.
Made it up, put all
their past differences away.
That's the way the world should go.
- We want to say--
- Bury them. Get on with it.
Life's too precious.
Forgiveness is hard.
It costs us something.
But if we refuse to forgive,
we imprison ourselves,
we carry bitterness,
anger, and shame.
Forgiveness, it doesn't
necessarily mean forgetting
what happened.
It means deciding not
to carry it with you anymore.
It means looking forward and not back.
So let me ask you today,
who do you need to forgive?
A friend?
A sibling?
A parent?
Maybe even yourself?
What the world needs now
Is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that
There's just too little of
What the world needs now
Is love, sweet love
No, not just for some
Oh, but just
For every, every
Everyone
What the world needs now
Is love, sweet love
Listen up
What's the time said today
I'm gonna speak my mind
Take me up
To the top of the world
I wanna see my crime
Day by day
There's a man in a suit
Who's gonna make you pay
For the thoughts
That you think
And the words
They won't let you say
One fine day
Gonna leave you all behind
It wouldn't be so bad
If I had more time
Sailing down a river alone
I've been trying to find
My way back home
But I don't believe
In magic
Life is automatic
But I don't mind
Being on my own
No, I don't mind
Being on my own
