The people will notice
That the times are changing
It's just for now
But not for good it's my feelings
That I think you're draining
Take them now
If you think you should
You want something for nothing
The higher that you climb
The longer you fall
Maybe your time is coming
Will you ask to climb
When you find the wall
Is it time to doubt?
Is it time to wait?
Will you be left alone
At the starting gate
I'm not blind
And I don't mind
Coz I've got time
now I'm alive
The people have noticed
That the times are changing
But are they gonna
Be something now I think I've seen you
All hesitating I think I'll go
And be something now
You want something for nothing
The higher that you climb
The longer you fall
Maybe your time is coming
Will you ask to climb
When you find the wall
Is it time to doubt?
Is it time to wait?
Will you be left alone
At the starting gate
I'm not blind
And I don't mind
Coz I've got time
Now I'm alive
Yeah I'm alive
Now I'm alive
Yeah I'm alive
That the times are changing
It's just for now
But not for good it's my feelings
That I think you're draining
Take them now
If you think you should
You want something for nothing
The higher that you climb
The longer you fall
Maybe your time is coming
Will you ask to climb
When you find the wall
Is it time to doubt?
Is it time to wait?
Will you be left alone
At the starting gate
I'm not blind
And I don't mind
Coz I've got time
now I'm alive
The people have noticed
That the times are changing
But are they gonna
Be something now I think I've seen you
All hesitating I think I'll go
And be something now
You want something for nothing
The higher that you climb
The longer you fall
Maybe your time is coming
Will you ask to climb
When you find the wall
Is it time to doubt?
Is it time to wait?
Will you be left alone
At the starting gate
I'm not blind
And I don't mind
Coz I've got time
Now I'm alive
Yeah I'm alive
Now I'm alive
Yeah I'm alive
Alive [8-Track-Demo]
This recording captures a raw, early iteration of the track 'Alive' by Oasis, originally released as an 8-track demo. While the song later became a cornerstone of their 1995 album 'Definitely Maybe,' this specific version offers a glimpse into the band's formative years and the collaborative process that defined their sound. The demo showcases the energetic guitar work and vocal delivery that would characterize their breakthrough era, serving as a significant document in their discography before the polished studio versions emerged. It remains a testament to the band's evolution from their Manchester roots to global stardom.
