Isn't it wonderous, the number of perspectives on one single song.

I'm looking at this page from SongMeanings.net surrounding the meaning of "Champagne Supernova" by Oasis, and I'm impressed by the number of perspectives people have on this one enduring lyric.

2. We had an interesting discussion about that several days ago.

It's been archived now, but it still contains a lot of important insights.

Hell, they were bigger than Terence Trent D'Arby!

4. Surprisingly, no one's chimed in on him.

Surprising, because the full name is "Wishing Well (A Tone Poem)", and poetry lends itself to interpretation. Yet not surprising, because I could see people stepping back to let the poet do what he does in this song without the interference of onlookers.
