Rock 'n' Roll Star Oasis Lyrics - "Rock 'n' Roll Star" is a song by English rock band Oasis. It is the opening track from their record breaking debut album, Definitely Maybe. Like the majority of the band's songs from this era, it was written by lead guitarist Noel Gallagher.
Noel said that "Rock 'n' Roll Star" was one of only three songs of which he wanted to say something. "I've 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". It became a fan favourite and was often played to close the band's gigs.
It was released as a radio single in America. The song's video consists of clips of the band performing the song from their Live by the Sea gig, interspersed with clips of them on Southend Pier, in and around the amusement park, 'Adventure Island' then named 'Peter Pan's Playground' and in the bowling alley which was located on Southend Pier before it burnt down in June 1995.
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.
The introduction lyrics are a slight interpolation of the song Proud Mary by Creedance Clearwater Revival.
The song opens Oasis' compilation album Stop the Clocks, released in November 2006. In an interview about the song choices for the album, Noel commented: "it's probably my best ever song".
It is also included in the European version of the music video game Rock Band, while it is also available for the Rock Band series as a downloadable song. The version of the song available for this series of music video games includes an extended outro and even a second guitar solo uncovered from the master recording extending the song roughly to six minutes (the album version features a fade-out with feedback instead).
I live my life in the city
There's no easy way out
The day's moving just too fast for me
I need some time in the sunshine
I gotta slow it right down
The day's moving just too fast for me
I live my life for the stars that shine
People say it's just a waste of time
When they said I should feed my head
That to me was just a day in bed
I'll take my car and drive real far
They're not concerned about the way we are
In my mind my dreams are real
Now you concerned about the way I feel
Tonight I'm a Rock 'n' Roll star
Tonight I'm a Rock 'n' Roll star
I live my life in the city
There's no easy way out
The day's moving just too fast for me
I need some time in the sunshine
I gotta slow it right down
The day's moving just too fast for me
I live my life for the stars to shine
People say it's just a waste of time
When they say I should feed my head
That to me was just a day in bed
I'll take my car and drive real far
They're not concerned about the way we are
In my mind my dreams are real
Now you concerned about the way I feel
Tonight I'm a Rock 'n' Roll star
Tonight I'm a Rock 'n' Roll star
Tonight I'm a Rock 'n' Roll star
You're not down with who I am
Look at you now, you're all in my hands tonight
Tonight I'm a Rock 'n' Roll star
Tonight I'm a Rock 'n' Roll star
Tonight I'm a Rock 'n' Roll star
It's just Rock 'n' Roll
It's just Rock 'n' Roll
It's just Rock 'n' Roll
It's just Rock 'n' Roll
It's just Rock 'n' Roll
It's just Rock 'n' Roll
It's just Rock 'n' Roll
It's just Rock 'n' Roll
