Oasis - Rock 'n' Roll StarCopyright - 1994 Creation RecordsRock 'n' Roll Star" is a song by the English rock band Oasis. It is the opening track from their record breaking debut album Definitely Maybe and was written by lead guitarist Noel Gallagher. The song is, as suggested by its title, a rock 'n' roll tune. It has become a fan favourite and is usually played at the band's concerts. It was released as a radio single in America and has a video.The lyrics, as seen in a number of Noel Gallagher's songs, refer to his dreams and aspirations to become a rock star, and his hopes to move away from Manchester, the place of his upbringing.Noel said that "Rock 'n' Roll Star" was one of only three songs of which he wanted to say something. "I'm pretty much summed up everything I wanted to say in "Rock 'n' Roll Star", "Live Forever" and "Cigarettes & Alcohol", after that I'm repeating myself, but in a different way".The song was featured on the band's 2000 live album and DVD, Familiar to Millions, and another live version was recorded at a 2 July 2005 concert at the City of Manchester Stadium and released on the band's single "Let There Be Love" in late 2005.Lyrics:I live my life in the cityThere's no easy way outThe day's moving just too fast for meI need some time in the sunshineI've gotta slow it right downThe day's moving just too fast for me I live my life for the stars that shinePeople say it's just a waste of timeWhen they said I should feed my headThat to me was just a day in bedI'll take my car and drive real farYou're not concerned about the way we are In my mind my dreams are realNow you're concerned about the way I feel Tonight, I'm a rock 'n' roll starTonight, I'm a rock 'n' roll star I live my life in the cityThere's no easy way outThe day's moving just too fast for meI need some time in the sunshineI've gotta slow it right downThe day's moving just too fast for meI live my life for the stars that shinePeople say it's just a waste of timeWhen they said I should feed my headWell, that to me was just a day in bedI'll take my car and drive real farYou're not concerned about the way we areIn my mind my dreams are realNow you're concerned about the way I feelTonight, I'm a rock 'n' roll starTonight, I'm a rock 'n' roll starTonight, I'm a rock 'n' roll star You're not down with who I amLook at you now, you're all in my hands TonightTonight, I'm a rock 'n' roll starTonight, I'm a rock 'n' roll starTonight, I'm a rock 'n' roll star It's just rock 'n' rollIt's just rock 'n' rollIt's just rock 'n' rollIt's just rock 'n' rollIt's just rock 'n' rollIt's just rock 'n' rollIt's just rock 'n' rollIt's just rock 'n' roll
