How Does It Feel

[Alien]

I just found a very rare version of the song How Does It Feel by Oasis but can someone tell me who sung it first? Or who was it that sung it famously?

[QUINNtheESKIMO]

Are you talking about "Like a Rolling Stone"?

[thebtskink]

Bob Dylan.

Now I know why Oasis is your favorite band. You don't know the classics.

[QUINNtheESKIMO]

well, there are songs called "How Does it Feel". Nat King Cole sang one, bunch of people.

[Radiohead]

i thought this was going to be a thread about nine inch nails :(
"how does it feel" is a lyric from the song, Suck.
but yeah, get your head into some classics. bob dylan is a good start.
don't forget nick cave, elvis costello, simon and garfunkel, nick drake, etc etc etc.
oasis is garbage.

The opening of the song,

And how does it feel like to wake up in the sun?
And how does it feel like to shine on everyone?
And how does it feel like to live forever green?
And how does it feel like to spend a little life time sitting in the gutter?

red head in a video? I dunno, maybe thats Ani Lenox. thats not by bob Dylan, though. I'm not sure who sang that song you posted, but "Like A Rolling Stone's" chorus goes like this:

'How Does it Feel?
How Does it Feel?
To be on your own?
With no direction home.
Like a Complete unkown.
Like a Rolling Stone.'

so, we still don't know who first sang the song you posted...

[QUINNtheESKIMO]

ok, I did a few little things, and I got some info for you. It seems that this song was indeed written by Oasis, and has been covered by the Chemical brothers.

oh, and its called, "Let Forever Be"

[QUINNtheESKIMO]

it can be found on the Chemical Brothers album "Surrender"

I searched for The Chemical Brothers - Let Forever Be and found it was supposedly on the Matrix Reloaded soundtrack. Is that right? Was it ever in the movie coz I must have missed that.

[QUINNtheESKIMO]

yeah, when I was looking for it, I couldn't find it on any of Oasis' albums, but I did find it on a glossary of songs and lyrics of Oasis, and allmusic.com lists the writers/composers of the song(which appears on the Chemical Bros. album "Surrender") as Oasis(well, it lists a few people's names, but its the Oasis guys...)

anyway, I looked, and its not on either of the Matrix soundtracks, as far as I know the only officially released recording of it is by the Chemical Brothers, on their album "Surrender". Maybe oneday Oasis will release a disc of outtakes, and it will be on there, along with other songs that they have never officially released. But atleast you don't have to wait until then.

It is "Let forever be", but it's not Oasis it's The Chemical Brothers, Noel wrote the lyrics and sang, he's done a couple for them.

They have done (in a fashion) "The Masterplan" is an album made completey of B-sides from their singles, it's as good asany other album out there, in my opinion anyway.

The Masterplan is weirdly one of there better albums. It's up there with Heathen Chemistry and Morning Glory.
