(It's Good) To Be Free Lyrics
I found it in a hole sitting upside down
You point the finger at me but I don't believe
Paint me a wish on a velvet sky
You demand the answers but I don't know why in my mind
There is no time
All I want to do is live by the sea
Little things they make me so happy
But it's good it's good it's good to be free
It's not in what you say it's in what you do
You point the finger at me but I don't believe
Bring it on home to where we found
My head like a rock sitting upside down
In my mind there is no time
All I want to do is live by the sea
Little things they make me so happy
But it's good it's good it's good to be free
lovely song, amazing solo at the end but its not about drugs its about when paul gallagher (their older brother) was sent to prison, how he felt when he got out. atleast thats what noel said in an interview in 1998.
For me, this is one of the best oasis songs, and, also, one of their best lyrics. However, i don't think it is about enjoying little things in life, but about dreams that can never be fulfilled. Namely, people often think that "living by the sea" is the key for freeness, that means there is a chance for breaking out from every day life, but we all know that this is just a mere illusion. /This is the same image as Champagne Supernova' "people believe that they gonna get away for the summer"/ Of course, we all want to have a "free life", and sometimes, we are foolish enough to believe in its possibility, but i think that the lyrics states that the constant reapeating of the lines "it's good to be free" is nothing else but a way of self-persuasion that obviously cannot be successful. So, all in all, there is a deep sarcastic meaning in this little song which makes it simply perfect.
The song is about a sense of fitting in within yourself- A lot of Oasis songs are like that, very focused on the self. One has themselves to trust...It traces success and vanity.
amazing tune and i liam makes the lyrics sound so meaningful, he has to be one of the greats. however its far from the greatest oasis song, slide away, go let it out, the masterplan, supersonic, live forever there's plenty better
This is Noels best guitar song. His guitar playing has so many levels to it in his song, many slag him off but this song confirms his status as the one of the great guitaring Brits.
This song is awesome, i love Liam's lazy vocals
This is Mega do do, do do, do do do, da do
Whatever has to be one of the best singles ever, 3 non-album songs and Slide Away as a b-side, fantastic! Think they need hit the drugs again and start writing sh1t like this again!
Best oasis song ever!!!!
thats a good beat!
