Today we are going back to the 90s to look at one of the most popular songs of the 1990s - Wonderwall. Is it just a load of fookin' sh*te, or is there something rather special about it? Oasis divide taste but the question is...can you resist singing along to this classic or does it drive you crazy? Tell me.

The song may be overplayed but it's still a fantastic piece of songwriting by Noel, and Liam's vocal is absolutely incredible. It's not an Oasis song I listen to a lot but when I do, I'm still awed by how great it sounds.

This song is a straight up classic. It was absolutely everywhere when it came out. You couldn't walk sideways without running into "Wonderwall" playing somewhere. For me though, I am a bigger fan of their first record. I absolutely love "Live Forever" and "Supersonic" (absolute belters). "Definitely Maybe" was released when I was living in the UK and that record and Blur's "Parklife" were the soundtrack of my time there. On the Blur/Oasis feud, I was always team Blur through and through. I, like you, since then have come to appreciate Oasis (the other team) and the Gallaghers solo work so much more. The only hassle is now, is who is the 'nicer Gallagher'? Choose your sides! Or don't.... Excellent video again, Justin, I love it when you cover the old people stuff. Thank you from an old lady....

Although I'm not very keen on Oasis, it should be admitted this is one of the anthems of that period. BTW, Err!!! use a bit of hairdryer in your precious hair to prevent a cold (as mothers say😅) 😘

I feel no one has ever really appreciated the genius of wonderwall in recent years till now. Nobody apreciates the sheer beauty of the cello, the gorgeous picking of the acoustic guitar in the chorus, or the piano at the end. Instead they just sing in an annoyjng voice and slap on their guitar, i dont think ive ever heard someone legitimately try to cover wonderwall without making it intentionally sound awful. Id argue the joke is overrated and the song is overhated

Your casual comedic reference to the melody that may or may not have had its (inspiration) from While my guitar gently weeps has also bugged me for ages but you are right to point out how cleaver Noel is ( the scally wag ). Well done.

Hi Justin, Since recently discovering your channel I have been spending a fair amount of my free time on it. F**king brilliant stuff! Now, when I stumble upon something new that I like, I think " I wonder if Justin Hawkins has covered them?" and lo, you have! (case in point - Idles). Also by virtue of watching so many of your videos the quality of my KZbin algo results has massively improved. Thank you sir. Apropos 90's UK music, I wonder if you'd ever consider talking about one of my favorite bands of that era and ever, Suede. Admittedly their quality took a dive after Bernard Butler's departure, but the first two albums are masterpieces (and aren't done justice by the term I never liked, "brit-pop"). Bernard Butler is arguably the best guitar player that too many guitar players have never heard of. He's had a quirky, very non rock-star career post-Suede. Both band and guitarist are undeservedly obscure, in the US at least. Anyway It would be cool to hear your take. If they're not your cup of tea, that's cool as well. I like that your musical appreciation for bands is not separate from your personal interaction with them as people. Perhaps you ran across Brett Anderson at some point and he was a c*nt? Who knows. Another 90's brit band that I'd love to see getting the golden JHRA touch is Pulp. Isn't Jarvis Cocker just a cool geezer? And he cosplayed as Brian May in one of their videos - there's must be some kinship there!

I always play it with a d and g held down all the way through. That was also one of the first things I learned about playing guitar: Never lift a finger unless you have to. Now, when I play it, I can never resist making it into a medley of this, D'you Know What I Mean and Writing to Reach You by Travis.

It's beautiful and mystical that music has the power to transport us in time like that. I saw Liam Gallagher in 2018 with my brother and was totally disappointed he did not play Wonderwall. I really wanted to relive those memories as he sang live. Maybe someday...

Hi Justin. Firstly, your regular videos have re-awoken the songwriter in this 50 year old, disillusioned muso, here in the vanquished West of Ireland, where men are men, and sheep are nervous!. So, thank you, good Sir. Secondly, I am a slide player, hugely influenced by Derek Trucks and Landrerh. Slide guitarists seem to be non-existant here in Ireland and I find it baffling, as the technique is arguably easier to learn compared to the standard guitar technique. My question is, have you ever played slide guitar, and what are your thoughts on the style? I'm trying to convince new guitarists to master it, as I believe it's the perfect way to introduce people with limited use of their fingers or wrists ( due to injury or old age), to the joys of guitar playing. P.S. I predominantly play in open E tuning. Sorry for the Novella, I'd be delighted if you had any thoughts on this. Go raibh maith agat. Slan. Paul K. Co.Roscommon.

Wonderwall was originally called Wishing stone, and it was written for Melissa Lim, the girl that Talk Tonight was written for as well. There are several good videos on youtube talking about that whole period. So that whole thing Noel says about the song being about yourself... bullsh*t bullsh*t is, well, bullsh*t. Noel wrote Wonderwall for Melissa, but by the time it was released he was with someone else so he had to make up some fake story about the song. In any case, great song, great album

I was 7 in 1995, but remember this song being EVERYWHERE! Everyone knew the lyrics and you either couldn’t get enough of it or complained endlessly that it was overplayed whilst tapping your foot along to the beat. Though not a huge Oasis fan, I’ve always liked Wonderwall but would argue that Lyla and Don’t Look Back In Anger are better songs. Maybe it’s because they’re more up-beat and Wanderwall can come across as a bit whiny when I’m in the wrong mood for it. 😅🥰

Wasn’t huge fan of Oasis in those days , and probably think more of them now tbh , but liked a few of their songs and especially Wonderwall. Had the opportunity to have a few beers with Liam late 90s - I was a gaffer on a tv shoot doing an interview with him in what was then the Atlantic bar in the west end, and he hung around after we’d wrapped . A friend of the director came down with her daughter to meet him..we were all sitting around on sofas and he sung wonderwall for her , she was about 10 or so I guess , very sweet of him and Pretty fucking cool. Got a bit messy after that though later on in the evening🤪

A lot of people are dismissive of Oasis and yeah some of their hits are "overplayed" but there's a good reason for it and they were brilliant. Had finger on the pulse and wrote some really great, as Noel would put it, "tunes". Proper good band. Great hairs too

Hey Justin, absolutely love your videos and your critiques but would love you explain to everyone that by putting a capo on your guitar doesn't mean that the guitars chords are the same as if you're playing without a capo...the pattern obviously is but not the sound being played. Sorry, as a pianist and bass player this is my constant guitar players' angst..." ok guys, we're gonna play Wonderwall, which is in Em, so the verse goes Em7, G, D, A7sus." (as the guitarist puts his capo on the 2nd fret!!!)

Every other person was still a twat back then, they just didn't have an easy social media platform to display their twatishness from so it was easier to ignore

Top tune for me and unique in many ways. Great because of the chord shapes (which hold the pinky on the bottom too!). I've taught this tune to god knows how many people and it 's one of those you keep saying "how come nobody did this before"?. It sounds so 'common' but actually nobody has put those chords together, in that way, ever before Gallagher did. On top of that an absolute stonking vocal and brilliant drumming really makes it. Top top tune. (Oh and btw the production on it with cellos etc is a nice touch too)

I have to admit that I always liked this song and still do. Nope, still not sick of it. I wasn't listening to the radio much then, so that's probably why. I like Oasis a lot, and I wonder sometimes...Do Liam and Noel ever look happy? Or at least not pissed off? Appreciate your analysis of the song, Justin. Thanks!

Nope, never. Noel has a permanent "WTF?!" expression, and Liam is just "I'm Liam Fookin Gallacher, so Fook Off!".

This song reminds me of working at the Virgin Megastore after it opened in downtown San Francisco. After closing the store some coworkers and I met up for drinks at a bar up Market Street called the Lucky 13. While still into our first round of pints Wonderwall began playing and all of us in our group sang along as loudly as possible , hearts full!!!

Back in '96 my English uncle made me a cassette with Morning Glory on one side and a Blur album on the other, which my young mind was blissfully unaware was tantamount to a Crips vs Bloods street war. Passed the tape around, wore it out, got every Oasis album, single, and bootleg I could find on CD, and fast forward a couple decades now have them on vinyl and am up to my ears in Gorillaz. And this album started it all.

Also I'd encourage anyone who hasn't heard it and enjoys more experiemental music to check out the "wonderwall music" album by george harrison, its on spotify and it's a super interesting listen , even if it doesn't become something you play all the time, but personally I really enjoy it. I'd especially recommend it if you enjoy the indian classical music george was into, it has tons of that, but also a really unique mix of influences on there from early electronic to country

Ryan Adams (not Bryan!!) did an acoustic cover of Wonderwall with some different tempos and if I remember correctly, I think Noel went on record to praise that cover version and has done it in that soft style in live shows himself.
