Champagne Supernova

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

Originally performed by Oasis
Rediscovered by Matt Pond PA in The O.C. Mix 4

This is a brilliant, brilliant song! I'm quite excited I managed to get a copy of this song. It's quite a good copy of the Oasis version. And I particularly like it because this song appeared during the part when Summer kissed Seth spiderman-style - haha. There's actually lots of sites online which has people describing what they think of this song and trying to understand the meaning behind the lyrics. Some of them are pretty weird, but reading these thoughts of other people reminded me of how my thoughts used to flow when I was doing English Lit in school.

But now, I'm too grounded to think English-Lit way anymore :P

Anyhow, the song's good because it's got a great tune, very melancholic too. Very suited to the various juxtapositions and contradictions in the lyrics. But if you look carefully, the lyrics pretty much seem like the words of a drunk.

And, YES - I've managed to download all 4 albums of The O.C. Mix - yippee! 4 full albums of great music :)

Right now, Champagne Supernova is gonna be playing continuously on my computer while I work on my log book (yeah, finally!).
