Wide Open Space

the perfecto remix is pretty stunning if you like this song ... not usually a fan of dancehead remixes but they've done Mansun proud out in clubland.

Or if you listen to it with the rest of the album (UK version of course) you could add that it is about the vicar. Paul also said that he wrote this sound to reach out to his fans, let them know how he felt at the time.. he said something like that. Read so many interviews and I don't feel like looking up exactly when/where he said what...

This is such a cool song. The kind you would listen too when you're feeling spaced out and realizing Mansun is talking about everything you're feeling at that low point of your life

funky song. i quite like it.

best song ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think this song is about lonliness...like nothing out there ever was.

It seems to be describing being lonly in a wide open space, open to everything and recieving nothing, or being effected by nothing since there is "Something quite bizzarre I cannot see" Or not attempting to grab life by the horns or take an oportunity. "I'm on the top of a hill...." Feeling as though there is no reason to even attempt to do anything because you're afraid.

I kind of figured this since he said "You'll never get to heaven with a smile on your face" like saying only true human suffering offers redemption.

I dunno, I guess I have a lot of ideas of what it means.

this song is so underrated. i love it and the video, especially at the end.

i think itsone of the best songs mansun ever did. i dont quite know what the meaning is though. its just a good song.

their best song. I love it

someone's whose a bit of a loner as things stand, it's always quiet on his own. saying to others there's nothing you can beat him on in his arrorgance. won't do well in life with a smile for him. wicked track. Bizzare it is
