10 Songs About How The Music Business Sucks

Most of the time that's spent in the rehearsal room is dreaming of one day being a rock star. Though the lifestyle might not be in the cards for everyone, it's always appealing thinking of what you could do when you have more money than you could possibly ask for and living among the first class seats on airplanes. It might seem fun, but Noel Gallagher knew that kind of attention a little too well.

By the time of Be Here Now, Going Nowhere is the one B-side where you start to feel the burnout start to set in for Noel. While the song itself is actually one of the band's best from around this time, you can feel Noel caught between two frames of mind when singing these lyrics, as the verses talk about dreaming of getting a Jaguar and living the life of a millionaire. Now that he's reached a borderline ridiculous level of fame though, hearing the chorus of going nowhere on a train actually hits a lot closer to home.

In the context of the song, it might just sound like this kid who wants to escape from his nowhere town and actually find a way to turn himself into the next cool rock star. Noel had already reached the top of the mountain though, so this might also just be a look at just how lonely it is once you reach the top, with everyone wanting a little extra piece of you in every interview. It might feel like you're going nowhere on a train, but even when you're at the top, it's still just another train.
