@guitarplyer1w Have you been to one of their gigs lately? I saw them 5 times last year, including Kelly on his own... he still has a lot of soul and passion too. In fact they seemed to have a renewed energy this tour, they were amazing. The best gigs they've ever done!
Yes i have the same version from well b4 they started 2 get big but put it on a didc with others so cant remember if it was a b-side 2 an early single or a bootleg i found somewhere sorry. But i still think that this is the best version as it feals so raw n full of emotion
it is with slight shame that i that i have to confess to very much not liking these when they first arrived. i was an oasis man and saw these boys as imposters; it was only after mr writer (i'm a late-comer to any band) that i buzzed and then "discovered" the back-catalogude.. now i see it. every chune.
Love this song, but does anybody know what it's about? Love the line about playing on the swing and not knowing it will be your last go on it! Took me back to my youth and hanging around parks with cheap lager
It's a nostalgic, philosophical song about all those things you do that could have been different and you'd be the same. One more kiss, a shaving nick, how do you know your last swing aint the last for good?...and all those things that happen that shape your life you have no control over...tired street parade, a fresh summer peach....They're all not up to me, not up to you. Fantastic song!!
Nice idea but it's actually about a man who died in a car crash, the shaving nick and extra kiss were kinda "what if's". What if he stopped for an extra few seconds because of a shaving nick or stopped to give his wife an extra kiss, would he have still been involved in the accident. But at the end of the day we don't know and "fate" is not up to us
Great song. Did I mention that I met Kelly at the last concernt in Stuttgart (germany)? It was my birthday the next day, so he all the rest gave me their autograph on the drum stick I caught after the show:-)!!!
prob one of the greatest song writers in this world :) great voice too :) godlike :)

One of my favourite CD's is the "Local Boy in the Photograph" single. With this song, and an truely amazing cover of "The Last Resort" by The Eagles.
That Last Resort cover blew my mind.
This ones isn't bad either lol.
