I assumed that the Mods would have tidied dead threads up or merged them together and not left the site all untidy. 2 hours ago, Xela said: We solved it. But only temporarily?

Are you a member of the Republican Party in the US, by any chance? 8 hours ago, Rds1983 said: But only temporarily? Yes, now the problem has reappeared in reverse, apparently: Whites are being discriminated against. Particularly, white male Republicans. They're having diversity shoved down their throats and are being asked to believe the ridiculous notion that the effects of slavery persist today.

Mark Albrighton Posted October 8, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted October 8, 2022 (edited) I think a sizeable proportion of lyrics don’t sound great when taken out of context. Those particular Champagne Supernova lyrics often get a bit of a kicking but I’d happily sing those ahead of other (mainly later) oasis stuff because at least those nonsense lyrics come with the confident swagger of being backed by a decent tune.

Which is the point of oasis, its not deep or clever or anything but when you're with your mates in a pub you'll be belting it out with the rest of them, even now 30 years later Worried about that lyric making sense when the song is called "champagne supernova" none of it makes sense, neither does supersonic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharkyvilla Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 I always thought that lyric was about taking something dodgy and your body is moving slow but your mind is going a hundred miles an hour, then follows it with 'where were you when we getting high'. They've done far shitter lyrics than that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I went to Egypt literally everything from street vendors was 1 pound / 1 Dollar / 1 Euro. They must have had some way of changing them. I would think Turkey's not so different.
