shropshire 0 #2 July 31, 2007 Google suggest that it may have been named after an album (for an 1968 film soundtrack) by George Harrison. (.)Y(.) Chivalry is not dead; it only sleeps for want of work to do. - Jerome K Jerome Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waltappel 1 #3 July 31, 2007 From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wonderwall_(song): The song takes its name from the 1968 album Wonderwall Music by George Harrison, at the time still a member of the Beatles.[1] Harrison's album was in fact a soundtrack to the film Wonderwall, but the film has remained unknown by the general public. The song was ranked #2 on Q Magazine's list of the greatest songs of all time, just behind another Oasis song, Live Forever. It is often claimed that "Wonderwall" was written for Gallagher's then-girlfriend, Meg Mathews. Noel married Mathews, but they were divorced in 2001. Gallagher now claims that the song was not about Mathews at all, but he felt he had to go along with the rumour, saying "The meaning of that song was taken away from me by the media who jumped on it. How do you tell your missus it's not about her once she's read it is? It's a song about an imaginary friend who's gonna come and save you from yourself."[2] Initially Noel wanted to sing this song, but he gave his brother Liam Gallagher the choice, and Noel ended up singing "Don't Look Back in Anger".[3] The music video to the song is also notable as having been filmed in the relatively brief period when bassist Paul "Guigsy" McGuigan quit the band due to nervous exhaustion; Scott McLeod came in to replace him.[4] The sleeve artwork was inspired by the paintings of the Belgian surrealist René Magritte, and was shot on Primrose Hill in northwest London. The hand holding the frame is of art director Brian Cannon; the girl is Anita Heryet, a Creation Records employee. The original idea was to have Liam Gallagher in the frame before Noel Gallagher vetoed that idea whilst the shoot was taking place.[5] The song is included on Oasis' "best-of" album Stop the Clocks.

Personally, I find a myriad of entertainment value when beating it until it becomes a horse-smoothie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jtval 0 #8 August 1, 2007 I always thought a wonder wall was his "Shrine" to the one who is going to save him. Basically something he would stare at while wishing he could be with her. stare at the pic's in wonderment.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
