The story behind the song

This song is a tribute from Noel Gallagher to his friend Richard Ashcroft, the lead singer of The Verve, whom he dedicated the track to as a "genius." Gallagher wrote it with Ashcroft in mind, particularly the feeling of being burdened by unspoken thoughts, describing him as unhappy and trying too hard. Originally planned as a B-side, its quality led to its inclusion on the 1995 album, and Gallagher considered its lyrics among his best. It plays like an ode to a friend carrying a heavy load, acknowledging their struggle and genius.
