How many special people have changed?
How many lives live strangely?
How many lives make life extraordinary?
Where were you when we were on drugs?
Where are you? When we are ecstatic (note 1)
Walk slowly down the hall.
Walk slowly through the steps of the hall (note 2)
Faster than a shell
But it flies faster than a shell.
Where were you when we were on drugs?
We feel flying higher and higher, and where are you?
One day you will find me.
One day you will find me.
Trapped under a landslide
Look, I'm buried by a mudslide.
Champagne supernova in the sky
Champagne supernova in the sky
One day you will find me.
One day you will find me.
Trapped under a landslide
Look, I'm buried by a mudslide.
Champagne supernova in the sky
Champagne supernova in the sky
Champagne supernova in the sky
Some champagne supernovae
Wake up Dawn and ask her why.
Wake up in the morning and ask her.
A dreamer dreams that she will never die.
Why, the dreamer always believes in her.
Dry the tears from your eyes.
Now, dry the tears from your eyes.
Walk slowly down the hall.
Walk slowly through the steps of the hall
Faster than a shell
But it flies faster than a shell.
Where were you when we were on drugs?
We feel flying higher and higher, and where are you?
One day you will find me.
One day you will find me.
Trapped under a landslide
Look, I'm buried by a mudslide.
Champagne supernova in the sky
Champagne supernova in the sky
One day you will find me.
One day you will find me.
Trapped under a landslide
Look, I'm buried by a mudslide.
Champagne supernova in the sky
Champagne supernova in the sky
Champagne supernova in the sky
Some champagne supernovae
Because people believe in them
Because people always believe
I'm leaving this summer.
They are heading for the most glorious moment in their lives (note 3).
But you and I, we live and die together.
But you and I, we left alive.
The world is still spinning.
The world will never stop turning.
We don't know why.
We have no idea why.
Why, why, why, why
why .............
Note 1: Noel was often in a state of taking drugs when making this album, so high here refers to the feeling after taking drugs.
Note 2: Personally, the hall here refers to the hall of life, and walking down the hall means completing the journey of life.
Note 3: Summer often refers not only to the summer in songs, but also to the most splendid years in life.
The lyrics of this song are quite confusing (after all, it was done under the condition of drug abuse), and the specific meaning can only be understood according to the music. Personally, I think it expresses a complex emotion of disappointment and helplessness because life is short, unpredictable but insignificant, and I can't help but yearn for more wonderful and more experiences in the finite.
This is an interview record about this song:
Noel: When I was near Meg's house, we were listening to a film called "I think this is ... a supernova". When we listened to this album, we were watching a documentary about the origin of French champagne. You may laugh, but it's true. I was drunk there, "Champagne supernova? Really, man?
Noel was listening to a record called Supernova and there was a documentary about the production process of French champagne on TV, so he put the two things together, and that's it. In addition, he explained in an interview that this is a song about death and rebirth.
