La canción del finde (13)

Si la semana pasada la canción era una rockera y muy movida, esta semana lo contrario, una canción que me relaja bastante.

Champagne Supernova, de Oasis. Se dice que Noel Gallagher (autor de la canción) obtuvo el título al escuchar mal el nombre de un álbum de “Pixies”, Bossanova, mientras veía un documental de champagne. Otras versiones dicen que la historia de “Champagne Supernova” es la experiencia de fumar marihuana mientras se toma champagne.

Este es el videoclip:


La letra:

How many special people change?
How many lives are living strange?
Where were you while we were getting high?
Slowly walking 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 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 walking 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
‘Cuz we don’t believe
That they’re gonna get away from the summer
But you and I will never die
The world’s still spinning around we don’t know why
Why-why-why-why-i-i
(guitar solo)
How many special people change?
How many lives are living strange?
Where were you while we were getting high?
Slowly walking 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
‘Cuz we don’t believe
That they’re gonna get away from the summer
But you and I will never die
The world’s still spinning around we don’t know why
Why-why-why-why-i-i
(a really long guitar solo)
(background – sounds like a bunch of “No”‘s)
(birds chirping)
(more guitar)
How many special people change?
How many lives are living strange?
Where were you while we were getting high?
We were getting high <– 9 times, background “Oooh-oooh”
(Fades out 7th-9th times to just one “Oooh-oooh”)
(Song gets really quiet, fades to a peaceful guitar solo.)
