Ironically, it took two and a half minutes to actually get to Chinatown, so Liam could actually walk through it

I'm liking the sound of the song, cool chilled out vibe. Not as good as Wall of Glass by a long stretch though.
I normally don't give a shit about lyrics but damn these are bad haha.

It's a good song but they could've tuned the fricking guitar, it sounds out of tune to me

Why are they bad lyrics? I bet if John Lennon had written it, everyone would say its a classic.

Not that he wasn't capable of a dodgy line, every songwriter is, but these type of hypothetical arguments can be done away with. They don't actually say anything. I mean, why not just say, "if it had been Dylan who wrote them," since we're attributing subpar lyrics to good lyricist. As if making a hypothetical that can't be proven actually says anything about the lyrics

Therefore if the meaning isn't entirely obvious instantly people are prone to assuming they're nonsense. Edit: Need to clarify some of the lyrics are awful but some of the ones I see getting the most hate are the ones that are actually alright.

Enough with the lyric police This is a thread discussing the song, the lyrics are part of the song. Your absolutely relentless defence of anything Liam related is admirable but honestly take a day off min, jeezo.

I love Liam to bits, but there's no point deluding yourself or not discussing a part of a song just cos it's Liam.

I like the song, its chilled and wasn't expecting a song like this from Liam.
The lyrics aren't great but many good songs have stupid lyrics..including many of Oasis'

Take me down Through what's a verb and what's a noun Through my headphones I want some schooling
Lyric police told me Narrative always beats energy I wanna re-do me G-C-S-E.

Am I the only person who doesn't like the vocals on this? Almost ruins the song for me. Given his recent performances I reckon he's capable of much better.
