Released on the 2nd October 1995 “(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?” reached #1 in nine different charts worldwide including the European Album’s Chart. This release coincided with the release of Iron Maiden’s Tenth album “The X Factor”.
Starting with the first track on the Album, “Hello” is the perfect title to introduce the album. After a thirty second introduction, Liam Gallagher’s gravelly yet polished up voice sets the tone of the album early on. When you think you think you know this song inside out you will always find something you didn’t notice before. Oasis’s music on this album has been influenced by many different artists. Bizarrely the line: piece
“Hello, Hello, Good to be back” taken from convicted Paul Gadd aka convicted paedophile Gary Glitter ‘s “Hello, Hello, I’m back again” is believed to have earned him almost £1m due to the album’s success.
Reaching #2 in the UK charts in 1995 “Roll With It” – a song aimed to promote the importance of being yourself - follows “Hello” on the album. With the release of Blur’s “Country House” being released on the same date as “Roll With It” the battle of Britpop began. When being asked to perform on Top Of The Pops (TOTP) the Gallaghers accepted with open arms. However inviting the Gallagher’s was never going to be simple. Liam took up the position of Noel and Noel wielded Liam’s trademark tambourine, this only added to the difficultly that the public faced when differing between Noel and Liam.
The third track on the album is considered to be not only the greatest song on the album but the greatest Oasis song of all time. “Wonderwall”. Possibly the most played song ever. “Wonderwall” – originally written for Meg Matthews (Noel’s Wife at the time) – stole the hearts of millio...

“Champagne Supernova”. Seven minutes twenty nine seconds long. By far my and many others’ favourite track by Oasis. When a journalist told Noel that he didn’t know what the lyrics meant and asked Noel if he did he replied: “I don’t f**king know. But are you telling me, when you’ve got 60,000 people singing it, they don’t know what it means?”.
When listening to the song you can experience many different emotions, it means so many different things to everyone. As a finale to the album Liam’s once again gravelly yet polished up voice almost giving you time to reflect on the journey that the album has taken from “Hello” right to “Champagne Supernova”.
“What’s the Story) Morning Glory?” is by far the greatest album produced by Oasis and it will always have a place in history and if you haven’t heard it, then you need to.

The Beatles are known, respectively, as the fathers of modern pop music. After their first #1 hit “Please Please Me” was released in 1963 the Beatles were set in motion to become one of the most influential groups of musicians to ever rock our world. With over forty-nine records, 37 #1’s, and thirty- four number one albums (the highest amount of any band in history), there is no denying that they made a monumental ripple in the musical world. John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr surprisingly all come from humble beginnings in a town that, until their superstardom, was barely noticed on the map. Liverpool, being kn...

For many of us, one of the most accurate and effective ways to express the feelings that really matter to us is through music. We don’t only grow to attached to songs that are catchy, but also those with lyrics that we can relate to. It is not uncommon to feel like sometimes, artists can convey the way we feel better than we could ourselves. The storybook-like lines you read at the start of this page are a collection of lyrics
Having never analyzed the music of the Doors before, I am extremely glad that I did. There is a wealth of information that lies through Jim Morrison’s poetry that most people seem to miss. The music contained in this album is nothing short of fantastic, and combined with the genius of Jim Morrison’s poetry, allows the listener to take a voyage through the Doors of Perception, and into another reality.
The artist I've chosen to discuss in this paper is the band Daft Punk. Daft Punk consists of Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo who became friends 1987 in secondary school, and are from Paris, France. The band formed in 1992 under the name “Darlin'” with a third member, Laurent Brancowitz, who later left the group and formed the band Phoenix. Daft Punk was a large part in the growing popularity of the “house” genre of music in France in the late 1990's.
It’s not surprising that Twenty One Pilots draw in many fans that suffer from mental health issues. Much of the band’s music has been inspired by to the band’s own experience with mental health issues. Dealing with some of these issues myself, I feel that this album's relatability refreshing . Even those who don’t suffer from any mental health issues can still connect to and enjoy this album. One doesn't have to be chronically depressed to experience sadness or an anxiety disorder to be

As the song continued, Ron began to dance a bit around the stage – interacting with his guitarist, bassist and drummer individually. They were all smiling and laughing as they played and sang – not so much as to ruin the music, of course, but enough that you could tell these were people who truly loved music and that they get to do it living. Following that were performances of some of the other tracks from his most recent album (at the time), “Calling off the Dogs.” Then it happened: the beginning chords to my favorite song of all time, “Fireflies.” I lost the ability to breathe for a moment. As the song played, I heard other people singing along just as loudly as I was – it made my heart swell to know that other people loved this song just as much as I do. I don’t know why that surprised me, really – all throughout the night, the entire audience had been screaming the lyrics along with him and moving their bodies to the beat of the
