Oasis

Songwriter: Burt Bacharach

You see this guy
This guy's in love with you
Yes I'm in love
I love you the way I do
When you smile I can tell
We know each other very well
How can I show you?
I plan, I got to know you cos

I heard some talk
They say you think I'm fine
Yes, I'm in love
And what I do to make you mine

Tell me now, is it so
Don't let me be the last to know

My hands are shaking
Don't let my heart keep breaking cos
I need your love, I want your love
Say you're in love, in love, with this guy
If not I'll just die

Tell me now, is it so
Don't let me be the last to know

My hands are shaking
Don't let my heart keep breaking cos
I need your love, I want your love
Say you're in love, in love, with this guy
If not I'll just die

One of the most decorated artists of the 1990s, for the best part of two decades Oasis were an instantly recognisable part of British culture and a key cog in the all-conquering machine that was the Cool Britannia movement.

The group rose to fame with the release of Definitely Maybe in 1994, which became an instant success, debuting at number one in the UK charts. They went on to have a much-publicised rivalry with Blur, and despite losing the biggest singles chart battle in British history, they would go on to win the war, becoming global stars with (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, which includes arguably their biggest hit, “Wonderwall.”

The band released their third album Be Here Now in 1997, amid conflict between the Gallagher brothers. Although it went to number two in the US charts, sales were below expectations and it has since been regarded poorly. Fourth album Standing on the Shoulder of Giants, released in 2000, was also received apprehensively by critics but managed to reach number one in the UK charts. It was during its recording that two members, guitarist Paul ‘Bonehead’ Arthurs and bassist Paul ‘Guigsy’ McGuigan, quit so Colin ‘Gem’ Archer and Andy Bell were brought on to replace them, respectively. Heathen Chemistry was released in 2002 to similar success, and the band continued touring. In 2004, drummer Alan White left and Zac Starkey joined for sixth album Don’t Believe the Truth, released in 2005, but only lasted until the next album Dig Out Your Soul (2008), when he was unofficially replaced by Chris Sharrock.
