I’m sorry but
spoilers for the movie the song is named after
Wonderwall is about a man who lives in an old bookstore with a brick wall falling apart. He can see into his neighborhood’s apartment, discovering they are a supermodel. So he decides to try and rape the woman. Upon getting into the apartment finds that she has attempted to kill herself and rescues her.
EDIT: To anyone who thinks I just associated something random, Wonderwall Music is the first solo album recorded by George Harrison which is the score for the movie Wonderwall.
I'm probably in some weird minority of people who's actually seen that movie but doesn't know what the more famous song is. (I've heard of it, but I don't know if I've ever actually heard it.)
The song is... fine. It was overplayed on the radio and has a horrible reputation among guitarists due to it being something anyone could learn to play in a couple of days. That's where the "puts capo on the third fret" meme comes from.
Not sure what you’re on about.
From Wikipedia:
The song's final title was inspired by George Harrison's solo album Wonderwall Music.[15]
That is the score to Wonderwall.
Live Forever is a far superior song than Wonderwall, anyway.
There, I said it.
I am more partial to Don't Look Back in Anger, personally.
Red - Feed the Machine, personally
Oh that’s who originally did that song that was in that Rick and Morty episode.
I always thought Cigarettes & Alcohol was their best song. Or was it my imagination...
You're gonna be the one that saves me
