"Waterfall" is a song that musically harkens back to the lighter side of 60's pop, being reminiscent perhaps of The Byrds. According to Ian Brown it is "...a song about a girl who sees all the bullshit, drops a trip and goes to Dover. She's tripping, she's about to get on this boat and she feels free." Brown has occasionally picked issue with John Leckie's production on this song, saying that the bass and drums on the song were mixed too low.

Waterfall is excellent, what a song
Stone Roses with Ian Brown are comparable to the Doors and Jim Morisson
Chimes sing sunday morn
Todays the day shes sworn
To steal what she never could own
And race from this hole she calls home
Now youre at the wheel
Tell me how, how does it feel?
So good to have equalised
To lift up the lids of your eyes
As the mile they disappear
See land begin to clear
Free from the filth and the scum
This american satelites won
Shell carry on through it all
Shes a waterfall
Shell carry on through it all
Shes a waterfall
See the steeple pine
The hills as old as time
Soon to be put to the test
To be whipped by the winds of the west
Stands on shifting sands
The scales held in her hands
The wind it just whips her away
And fills up her brigantine sails
Shell carry on through it all
Shes a waterfall
Shell carry on through it all
Shes a waterfall

I loved that band? Are they still around? My two favorite songs by them were " I wanna be adored" and " Fools Gold".

stone roses? I saw that and thought " what a cool name for a band!" anyway, the only waterfall song I know is by TLC.
