The first line of the song gives you the context for the entire song. "All your dreams are made, when you're chained to the mirror and the razor blade." Life is an illusion for those that are hopelessly addicted to some harmful act. Chain to the mirror and the razor blade is addiction to powdered drugs, the act of preparing the drug for use to get ready to put the illusion up for the day.
Don’t mistake using drugs for addiction. They loved their drugs😂 Until they’d had enough and just quit… No rehab clinics or anything, just stopped The original lyric was “Need a little line to wake up” but they changed the word line for time to get it released
see when i was a naïve kid i always thought it was referring to just someone waking up in the morning and trying to pump themselves up for another shit day before having a shave. until i got olde. still kinda makes sense with that simpler context
You're overthinking it. It's about feeling like the bollocks each and every morning or whenever you rise. A line of coke, boom - away you go to face the day and the world - without the misery of addiction and self-pity. It's a positive, self-rallying, call to arms when you're young, carefree and you're seizing the day! Trust me..
"All your dreams are made, when you're chained to the mirror and the razor blade" is fucking phenomenal. Probably my favorite rock 'n' roll song by my favorite rock 'n' roll band.
This was my tune when I started junior year in high school in August of 2019. I binge listened to this song waking up every morning omw to school and back home after a lazy long summer break (best summer so far). The nostalgia is real with this song, Liam absolutely slices it with his voice, certified life classic fr.
I don’t where that story about a stiffy came from, but it’s doing the rounds! The truth is that Noel Gallaghers friend rang him up one morning and greeted him thus “What’s the story morning glory” to which Noel replied “I’m having that!”
Well, the title of the album is (What's the Story) Morning Glory? And I think is just about procrastination ; waking to the sound of your favorite songs and believing you're going to do big stuff but all remains in just ideas.
I'm afraid I identify with the neighbours & have always had the feeling that they are a bunch of selfish twats (they're obviously having some sort of band practice & looning around when everyone's trying to sleep) . Some good songs though, & I love the dissonant harmony on "We-ell".
Music videos normally have nothing to do with the song meaning, even in those (internet-less) days when music videos had a big impact on the single/album sellings. For me this video is just a bunch of lads blasting their guitars and drums in their apartment, which is making all the surrounding neighbors crazy. The old man with the two bodyguards could represent the building owner.
Please don't take their videos too seriously, as a huge fan of Oasis since 1996, they've never made much sense to me either 😂 But thankfully, the other day a random video came up while i was on You Tube of Noel Gallagher (the song writer) saying he didn't have a bloody clue what their videos were all about either, and going by that, they must have been made for them at the time 🤣 Not a good look admittedly! 😂 I'll look for the video and let you know what it's called so you can see for yourself 😀 They were pretty much wasted back then so probably just allowed them to be made without a second glance 🙈😂
Americans always want to make some connection between the song and it's video. It's simple dude; The song came first, its a separate entity. Video's are also called visualisers or promotional videos (promo's). The visualiser is so that music can be played on TV and the like. Otherwise it would just be a static picture or blank screen. Not a very good thing in the 'modern' world. So the music video was born, coincidentally at the same sort of time as MTV etc. Radio doesn't require a visualiser, obviously. The music videos truly do not have anything to do with the song, unless some arty-farty director tries to incorporate some sort of narrative or tenuous interpretation. Music is about the music - listen to the song, arsed about what some poncey director thinks! Phew, ffs... (*nb, this doesn't mean that music videos can't be enjoyable, creative or relatable and fun - but the music comes first for its own integrity. Always.) "Video Killed the Radio Star" Sound familiar...??? Lesson over. As you were..
"What's the story Morning Glory" was a phrase one of Noel's ex-girlfriends used to answer the phone when he called. Instead of hello, she'd say, "What's the story morning glory?"
That was Melissa Lim,who Noel stayed with after walking out on Oasis in late 1994. She inspired the song 'Talk Tonight' amongst other things. James Hargreaves Guitar UA-cam channel has some fantastic videos on her whole involvement and story with Noel & Oasis.
You have obviously taken feedback on board and watched other channels mate... finally you are engaged with the videos and at least pretend to like the songs... previously, on videos, you looked so confused and bored regardless of the artist. I understand that in the US, in your culture, Oasis or similar bands may be a weird sound, especially if you are young, but they were huge at the time. If you don't like rock an roll then don't make content on it as it shows through so much, review stuff you have some interest in
they only make sense for those "in the know" i guess. they actually all have meaning but it's very inside knowledge stuff only nerds like me researched lol. this song has a lot of meaning within noel's journey to make it in the music business. very true that many of the lyrics are unconnected tho, ur definitely right about that. "whats the story morning glory?" was simply just a phrase one of noel's ex girlfriends would answer the phone with, instead of "hello". but it was in the time of his life that she saved him, hence wonderwall and talk tonight. he was down and out and she encouraged him to take a rest and then go back at it

Liam coolest dude ever, last rockstar alive. Live reactions are crazy 🔥
Now the woke tard mob are whining about Oasis reforming because Liama nd Noel said some anti-woke 'offensive; things lol.

it was his american girlfriend at the time.

It's about coke, Noel has said this in interviews many times.
@@nigelw7626 100% correct. Doing lines with a razor on a mirror. The lyrics say it all.
What's the story morning glory ✨🎶🎶🎶
The 90s were simpler times
Haha
"What's the story, morning glory?" is just a rhyming greeting. Like "What's up, buttercup?"
"Morning glory" is another term for "morning wood" if that helps! :D
Edit: Yes, you got it right
The original lyrics was ' Need a little line to wake up '. Obviously that had to change. Great tune by Oasis
Check out their live performances. Takes the songs to an other level.
Only before 98
@@albertguldbrandsen969I think 2000 is ok
@@SupersonicMan10000 Yeah its alright, but before 98 they were godlike
90s music videos rarely had anything to do with the song... it was the director's gig then and there was a lot of abstract experimentation
Mate, that top is psychedelic. Fucking spot on bruv.
Slide away
Need a little line to wake up was meant to be the original lyric but got changed

Lex would've loved this
It's based around addiction, the morning coke bump.
Live performance reactions are a must for Oasis.
Liam Gallagher is the greatest Rock n roll frontman in the entire history of the world✌️🏴
Songs about doing lines of coke aka.....mirror and razor blade coke reference.
nice top
Wherte is yer missus?

The song is about taking acid to make it easier to wake up in the morning
cocaine
Lots of cocaine son and I need a little time to wake up

You're right. He has no f clue. He's embarrassing himself
No oasis lyrics makes sense. They're all just rhyming couplets and unconnected in the main. Wouldn't worry about it
