This is a fantastic song. One of Noel's best, solo or otherwise.

Yet another fabulous song by Noel Gallagher, this man is the best of my generation.

I wish here in the UK he got more recognition, but oh well...

[@chrisbrehl8963]

chrisbacos Ofc he cant, Americans listen to shitty commercial music to shake their fat ass

[@Bucboy1001]

Richard Cox His album went #1 in the UK, meanwhile here in America....well, it reached 35. It's quite shocking that an artist as accomplished as NG is not even mentioned in America.

[@chrisbacos]

It's because here in America the powers that be want the masses to listen to songbirds with little talent like Beyonce and Kate Perry or antiquated rock bands like Black Sabbath and the Eagles that have overstayed their welcome.

[@leonzambotti5628]

chrisbacos I wish that he had it from all of the world!!

[@ChrisPoindexter98]

THIS IS SO FUCKING UNDEREXPOSED: ESPECIALLY HOW PERFECTLY AND EXQUISITELY PSYCHEDELIC IT IS. One of the many wonderful songs that got me through and out of the worst depression of my life a little over a year ago.

[@andiehan]

if there's something hard in my life, I can't stop crying listening to noel's tunes... there magic in his music that moves a 17 years old girl who weren't even born in the age of Britpop. such a perfect remedy for weary heart.

[@Bibinella08]

One of the best solo guitars ever! Pink Floyd vibes. 💗

[@omarvgarcia]

Great song by Noel Gallagher, a true poetry, these are songs that will last forever

[@67100lucas]

Undoubtedly the best song in the best album of 2015 !

[@jaksch14]

Lucas Peter Correct.

[@RadioDadJokes]

Lucas Peter It's a brilliant track, and the album I think is terrific but for me, the only real stand-out track. Noel's first album was better, for me, but they're both great. Noel's fantastic.

[@67100lucas]

Matt Levy​ Great analysis !

[@jbblackley]

Lucas Peter 2015 is still young, but I've a hunch the remaining eight months are more apt than not to prove you right.

[@chrismartin1530]

+Matt Levy Prefer the Dying of the light personally.

[@hannahmitchell9028]

This song is so well done- the lyrics, the instrumental.. I can't applaud Noel enough. Thank you NGHFB for making real, good music!!

[@bleep77]

Noel has perfected the craft of writing these elusive mellow tunes. Simple but Sheer brilliance!

[@Banshun]

That glorious chorus. Standing on a hillside overlooking a northern town, cold wind on your face.

[@yuhzobreyer188]

"Riverman" There's something in the way she moves me to distraction. I've travelled all this way to try and make amends. 'Cause heavy in the air are the words that she left hanging. I've tried to walk away but I only stand and stare.[Chorus:] In the rain that comes.. All of the love that was left behind is gone. When the Riverman runs.. Find me the girl who electrified the storm. 'Cause in a little while.. she'll be gone. I waited in the rain, my feet too wet to stand in. I shouted out your name behind the rainbows end. But somewhere in the crowd she heard me jingle-jangling. And like a memory that fades, she slipped away again.[Chorus]

[@tibo5956]

Just love this song. I think this is one of the best songs you've ever written Noel , much respect.

[@bakay5095]

So psychedelic, artistic, mysterious.. absolutely adore it

[@awakeningnavigator3895]

Why does every guitar intro he ever made have to be best thing to exist? I can't take it!

[@philcooper2408]

Love the dreamy melancholy, puts me in mind lots of things at once, Floyd, early Verve, the psychedelic vibe of 90s, but thats all good. Fair play to him for doing his own thing and coming up with a brilliant atmospheric song.

[@chrisjohnson8029]

His work is cathartic, uplifting, introspective, interesting and emotional - such a wide range of feelings I get listening to it. I will never turn down a good listen of Noel (or indeed Oasis), which can suit whatever mood I am in regardless of the day I've had, or am having. That, in my eyes, is what makes him a complete and absolute musical genius.

[@abritincanada]

this could so be an intro song for a James Bond film, Noel Gallagher has got a solid track here, love it!

[@TheJovian16]

007 in... RIVERMAN Coming to theaters this July.

[@IanBrownMakeUpArtist]

I was actually searching for Riverman by Nick Drake. Stumbling across this was a happy accident indeed. Noel is a brilliant songwriter. One of the brightest talents to emerge from the sea of creativity that was Britain’s Brit Pop era. Liam had all the swagger and charisma befitting a front man, but it was Noel who crafted the songs that defined an entire generation. Noel’s work here with High Flying Birds only serves to cement his status as a prodigious musician. ❤️

[@nortilad1969]

Great write up about Noel..ive learnt so much from him guitar wise..he just simplifies tunes hes a fkin genius

[@alangeo4]

I wish Noel did a James Bond theme song that would be amazing!

[@davidstewart1743]

he did one already and it's called Freaky Teeth. I mean listen to it, the lyrics... the queen, criminals, thunder and lightning, death. Listen to the progression, sounds like 60's song, like a British batman theme. Pretty sure he wrote it for one of the recent Bond films and it was turned down.

[@cooperallred6605]

[@dam230711]

[@amelianolde6743]

I'd like to see all the people who's saying he's a crap musician, making a tune as great as this one. Why people think complicated is better? One of the things I admire the most about Noel is that with little "skills", as you say, he blows our minds with his beautiful sounds and touching songwriting. Simplicity can be beautiful too. That's the great thing about art.

Hay algo en el camino, ella me mueve a distracción He viajado hasta aquí para tratar de hacer las paces Porque pesadas en el aire son las palabras que dejó colgando Traté de alejarme, pero sólo me paré y miraba fijamente La lluvia que viene Todo el amor que quedó atrás Se ha ido Cuando el hombre del río corre Encuéntrame a la chica que electrifica la tormenta Dentro de un rato se irá Quizás Esperé bajo la lluvia Mis pies demasiado mojados para pararme Grité tu nombre Detrás del final de un arco iris Pero en algún lugar de la multitud Me oyó tintinear Como un recuerdo que se desvanece Se escabulló otra vez La lluvia que viene Todo el amor que quedó atrás Se ha ido Cuando el hombre del río corre Encuéntrame a la chica que electrifica la tormenta Dentro de un rato se irá La lluvia que viene Todo el amor que quedó atrás Se ha ido Cuando el hombre del río corre Encuéntrame a la chica que electrifica la tormenta Dentro de un rato se irá La carrera del hombre del río La carrera del hombre del río La carrera del hombre del río

This song is very clever but very sinister, “why you ask?” I was watching a crime documentary about a serial killer that dumped women's bodies near the river. The lyrics seem like a love song but, after watching it, they match that. IN A WHILE SHE'll BE GONE. He was nicknamed “riverman”
