“Music is therapy even when used for pure listening pleasure.

As we relax the body and mind, breathing becomes deeper and we are pulled into the music, where we become more focused and attuned to ourselves and the world around us.”

Raffaele Baldassaro (2008)

(What's The Story) Morning Glory?

For David Osborne, a Student studying Economics at City University; Oasis' '(What's The Story) Morning Glory' is easily his favorite!


He explains why:


"(What's The Story) Morning Glory, really makes no sense if you think of the lyrics. This opens it up to your own interpretation. And my interpretation of the song is based completely on one line "Another sunny afternoon, walking to the sound of my favourite tune, tomorrow never knows what it doesn't know too soon" Which, makes me think of just being in an absolute state of happiness, not just superficial, but genuine. It's something like being in the ideal world. 


That being said, the guitar solo as well makes me feel a state of elation. It's nothing fantastic, just a pentatonic progression, but when you put it with the whole song, it really hits me as something magical"

I've known David for years and I sort of knew he was gonna describe an Oasis song - he's loved them since forever. Personally, I'm not much of an Oasis fan but I do like this song and can't help but enjoy the melody of the bridge/chorus where Liam Gallagher sings 'Need a little time to wake up'. Makes me feel like I should be motivated! 


Thankyou David for sharing your story :)
