Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds - The Dying Of The Light (Official Lyric Video)

[@primeholyassasin20]

This sounds like it's about growing up and trying to soldier on in the wake of betrayed expectations. Broken promises, lost direction, getting older and finding out the world isn't the wonderful place you thought it was. "catching the sun" sounds like soldiering on and trying to find a dream worth living for in a world that's let you down.

[@CraigMead.]

Truly amazing lyrics isn't it mate. Really hit me with out truthful it is in how I feel about getting older

[@dukeatreides8374]

This. Absolutely this. Cheers.

I like Oasis songs, but when i hear Noel's solo stuff i realize that he hasn't lost his touch, in fact, he has evolved and his music preserves that authenticity, honesty and transparency that comes from his soul. This guy born for this and is timeless.

[@allymendel4571]

I personally, think Noel has got even better with writing over the years

[@yubia5216]

Definitely.

[@vanessafrost7132]

I agree - the music has evolved from anthemic to something more profound

[@robertwrites925]

Disagree. He can still pull of amazing melodies like this but when you compare it to the complexities of DLBIA, it is not even close

[@claylancaster5806]

this is one of the best songs I've heard in 10 years.

[@Dpontes29]

Clay Lancaster Absolutely

[@4hesr6kefb3y-]

Are you only 10 years old?

[@kawishabbasi9459]

What I see that music n lyrics Ottis song continuously depicts the personal agony of every living person/entity.

As an Oasis fan, I am proud of you Noel. keep going. You are a true artist.

How are you proud of him? Is he your son? Uncle?

[@benjamincera1806]

As a person who loves and appreciates art, I’m proud of you and all of us the still have a grounding of song-man-ship during these tumultuous times … in mankind

[@brasovraskon4697]

Another masterpiece from Noel

[@NataliaGallagher]

Noel, you changed my life. The world is better with you. ❤

[@jamesgolder373]

I can't believe how old this song is now it still sounds so fresh and so dark today absolutely amazing track one of my favourite songs

[@kiely4561]

It’s only like 9 years old, you’re talking like it was made in the 60’s 😂 great songs and great song writers never date, it’s why live forever is constantly being discovered by new generations.

[@matthewarmstrong6064]

It's impossible to experience the aching nostalgia of the mid 90s Britpop era for someone who wasn't born then. But if they listen to this song, eyes closed, volume to max, they'll come close. So very close.

[@SuperSaturn55]

How true my friend great times indeed.

[@JamieBell-xw4lw]

❤

[@paulmartin9275]

Noel is certainly one of the best contemporary, or all-time, best music writers. He has great arrangements with intriguing lyrics.

[@yodhin79]

Has anyone else teared up listening to this song ? Especially when thinking how fast adulthood came. Then, one day, you’re 39.

[@Devir666]

For sure. And now i feel myself and alive when i thought about this and the music. Suddenly, you are yourself. Its a strange feeling.

[@julieronis7667]

Yes!!!

[@jimknowles-wz9no]

and the next you are 78 life goes so fast cant seem to remember the 60 s anymore

[@tenerifereddog3943]

The problem is youth is wasted on the young.

[@theloniouscoltrane3778]

How can a man who keeps on cursing and at odds with his brother come up with these thoughtful lyrics? Where does he get his inspiration? NOEL GALLAGHER...one of the greatest lyricists of all time!

[@aarnoalikoski1755]

This song is breathtaking - deep journey to your emotions. Masterpiece.

[@undeny]

The long awaited and jaded blessing of a sound that's moved on far beyond the scope of modern media. Here's to the ones who find it, those of us who keep it forever. Long live good music!!

[@HFTLMate]

I feel like these kinds of videos are better for Noel coz its more about appreciating the music and less about acting out a story

[@daniel171095]

HF TL not his choice, as long as he's tied with a label he's gonna have to make videos.

[@coopsman98]

Hes said himself he hates videos

[@thelessworld]

Daniel Elsegood Not anymore, Noel is the label of his own records since oasis, Sour Mash records

[@emmanuelbortolin]

HF TL Im agree. Ironically his solo videos are much better than Oasis videos. But thats my opinion.

[@vicsanfiful]

Gives me chills. Love this song and the atmosphere it has. Once again Noel made the perfect song

[@shookthekop]

This should have WAAAY more views. By far and away my favourite song by HFB.

[@tonykeman]

one of the best, magical songs written ever

[@claytonbittencourt1508]

One of the best Noel songs.

[@akhillong4068]

At first he was dismissed, then came Def Maybe and he was lauded as a one-album wonder. Then came Morning Glory and he was praised as a songwriter, but set within his era. Then came Standing on the Shoulder of Giants and he was deemed one of the best British songwriters of all time. Then came the follow up albums and Oasis' legacy and he was considered one of the best songwriters of his generation. And then came the High Flying Birds' self entitled album and Noel was labeled a genius. And now, we have Chasing Yesterday; which has cemented Noel Gallagher as LEGEND.

[@itzfixed]

+R Channe hmm,must be a British adolescence thing

[@shune84]

+itzfixed it's too easy to pigeon-hole like that

[@stuthahammer76]

👍👍👍

[@R4Y2k]

Seems like Noel hasn't finished yet.

[@leemcqueen500]

Nope it's got great songs on it. Fuckin in the bushes, Go let it out, Gas panic, Where did it all go wrong, Sunday morning call and Roll it over.

One of the best songs I've ever heard. Simply perfect. Not possible to write better song. It's sure.

[@Jordi_X2]

I was told the streets were paved with gold and there'd be no time for getting old when we were young...

[@Britpopsoul]

This song makes me think and cry. It’s haunting, uplifting, inspiring and amazing. Perfection. 💕

[@Resident-biohazard]

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds I keep on running but I can't get to the mountain Behind me lie the years that I misspent And I've been sinking like a flower in the fountain When all the love I'm gonna need is heaven sent Gonna try my best to get there But I can't afford the bus fare And the storm that's rolling over Man, it makes me wanna cry And I was told The streets were paved with gold And there'd be no time for getting old when we were young It's alright, if you dance with me tonight We'll fight the dying of the light and we'll catch the sun Woke up sleeping on a train that was bound for nowhere Echoes that I could hear were all my own The world had turned and I'd become a stranger And I'm tired of watching all the flowers turn to stone 'Cause I tried my best to get there But I can't afford the bus fare And the storm that's rolling over Man, it makes me wanna cry And the cold against my shoulder When it comes on in the winter And it seems to last forever And it makes me wanna, it makes me wanna cry I was told That the streets were paved with gold And there'd be no time for getting old when we were young It's alright, if you dance with me tonight We'll fight the dying of the light and we'll catch the sun Gonna try my best to get there But I can't afford the bus fare And the storm that's rolling over Man, it makes me wanna cry And I was told That the streets were paved with gold And there'd be no time for getting old when we were young It's alright, if you dance with me tonight We'll fight the dying of the light and we'll catch the sun But the cold against my shoulder When it comes on in the winter Man, it makes me wanna cry And the cold against my shoulder And it seems to last forever And it makes me wanna, it makes me wanna cry ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

+Robert Jones God bless you

[@robertjones3001]

Marianne Mesquita Now, when you say "God", do you mean Yahweh, the REAL God of Israel, or do you mean the singer AND songwriter from the rock groups Oasis and High Flying Birds, Noel Gallagher?? Because Yahweh can bless. But Noel eats, sleeps and shits like every other human being so therefore has no "blessing" powers.

we'll fight the dying of the light and we'll catch the sun....man it actually makes me want to cry

It’s amazing how he wrote all of the first three oasis albums. They’re classics and he wrote them. He needs respected for this.

[@AlejandraLopezLEL]

This song is just breathtaking

[@davidbahar9596]

Personally i think Oasis are not even close musically to the direction Noel is going now, sooner or latter these song's will be put to film and then the general population will HEAR. Keep moving forward Noal, long after your gone these song's and this music is going to inspire generations. Will you please do a couple of Albums in Nashville, with some of those serious musician producers.
