La's, The - Man I'm Only Human Lyrics

Absolutely fucking perfect.

Who sings this, this sounds like John Power to me?

This is Liam Gallagher's favourite track. I can see why.

sung by chipmunk lee

Sounds like early verve

La's. One of those obscure bands that raving fucking arseholes who think they've got more taste than people who like more popular bands talk up in a 'only the bands the Beatles could have been'' way. Only it's usually Oasis that get the treatment in relation to this group. Sad cunts.

Man I'm only human
Humble as can be
Man I'm only human
I am only me

Man I'm only fishing
Fishing in the sea
Man I'm only missing
Throw your line to me
Throw your line through me

Man I'm only one man
I am only me
Man I'm only one man
Push it out through me

Keep a sense of humour
Put the fear in me
Yield your shield to me
Throw your spear through me
Throw your spear through me
Throw your spear through meMan I'm only dying
Dying to be free
Dying to be free
Dying to be free
Dying to be free

Liam Gallagher brought me here.

Man I'm only dyyyyiiiing ! Dying to be free.

My suicide note.

yield your shield to me...throw your spear through me

+bryandonaghue IS RIGHT LA!! PEACE BROTHER

Man I'm only human,
Humble as can be
Man I'm only human
I am only me

Man I'm only fishing,
Fishing in the sea,
Man I'm only missing,
Throw your line to me
Throw your line through me

Man I'm only one man,
I am only me
Man I'm only one man,
Push it out through me

Keep a sense of humour,
Put the fear in me,
Yield your shield to me,
Throw your spear through me
Throw your spear through me
Throw your spear through me

Man I'm only dying,
Dying to be free,
Dying to be free,
Dying to be free,
Dying to be free

Liam Gallagher sent me here. This is his fave Las track apparently

Likewise Mate

evilwomanofdoom He wishes he wrote this song.

Liam said in an interview that Looking Glass was his fave too!

Aimee Russell Liam Gallagher should do a cover of this or some other La's track.

This band and that debut album completely shaped my musical world when I was growing up. I love Oasis, The Beatles, The Stone Roses etc. But only The La’s manage to take me to another dimension with their songs, especially this one. It frustrates me that anyone who I mention them to hasn’t ever heard of them apart from ‘There She Goes’ but there also my secret inspiration that no one can and ever will take away from me....what a band 🙌🏻🙌🏻

LOVE the comment my friend. Obviously ur younger since none of ur friends have heard of them or maybe ur from down south or abroad. I wouldn't look at no one hearing of them as a bad thing cause sometimes having a band thats clearly world class yet only u out of ur social circle know about it sometimes gives u an extra feel about the group.
I understand tho cause in general i enjoy music a bit extra when im able to turn friends onto a band ive discovered but its always good to keep the odd band usually one sings mostly slower tracks to enjoy yourself. Lol

Britpop!!

@Sideris Roukoudis The La's weren't Britpop!!!

one of liam gallaghers favorite songs..

More beautiful to me than a Gregorian chant. Thank you Lee.

Man I'm only human
Humble as can be
Man I'm only human
I am only me

Man I'm only fishing
Fishing in the sea
Man I'm only missing
Throw your line to me
Throw your line through me

Man I'm only one man
I am only me
Man I'm only one man
Push it out through me

Keep a sense of humour
Put the fear in me
Yield your shield to me
Throw your spear through me
Throw your spear through me
Throw your spear through me

Man I'm only dying
Dying to be free
Dying to be free
Dying to be free
Dying to be free

yet yes yet all bye the self

It's soul jim, but not as we know it

Sounds like Robin Gibb.

This song, then "All By Myself", "Endless", "Who Knows?" and "Over" are, like, from a different kind of La's. A somewhat more spiritual and melancholic La's, I reckon. Love playing these songs in sequence. They really can take you out there, man.

Caverman I think possibly early spiritualized. Was an influence. They were fking sweet

darran wilkins - you got it spot with the Spiritualized reference there. 2000 bars and especially Cop Shoot Cop bear more than a passing resemblance to this beauty.

Great call.. I'm gonna listen to them in this order and see. But yes, a very different feeling and vibration to these songs. Very....

I think you can add « Looking Glass »

Superb! At the moment for me, the best ever.

The LA's rocked, great band, miss them.

What a song!! got to be the one of the most amazing bands ever!! 

Sounds like early Bee Gees. And early Bee Gees is great.

Headphones all the lights out and put this on heavenly!!!

Was at a Pete Doherty concert a few years ago, half way through he said 'you don't know how lucky you are', walked off stage and Lee Mavers walked on and blew my mind :P

i am french and i listen the la's. it's a awesome music

I'm in Illinois and I love this band so so much.

Universal, brilliance, captivating

velvet underground vibe. i like it

oooph this is brilliant ;-)

not mavers thats why. George Harrison in the bath... LAH!

Actually this newer stuff does remind me somewhat of Harrison. Only after thinking the two may enjoy working together did I discover George already passed away. Not sure how I missed that.

kin amazin:) ta

J4f94, you little legend. These tracks are special

woah this is cool. its great to hear something "new" from the La's. what a great band. anything unheard is totally appreciated!
