| Be Here Now (Music) | comment |
Be Here Now is the third studio album by the English rock band Oasis, released at the height of their fame on August 21, 1997note 26 August in the US and Canada.Pressure was on the band after their breakthrough Definitely Maybe became an overnight sensation. They followed it up with the equally revered (What's the Story) Morning Glory?, successfully avoiding a Sophomore Slump. Music fans waited with bated breath as the band disappeared into the studio for six months.What emerged was one of the most polarizing albums of The '90s. Clocking in at an incredible 75 minutes, Be Here Now is a sprawling, cocaine-fueled ode to the excess of Sex, Drugs, and Rock & Roll.Receiving almost ridiculously positive reviews from critics upon its release, it spawned four singles, two of which ("D'You Know What I Mean?" and "All Around the World") topped the UK singles chart ("Stand by Me" stalled at #2 and "Don't Go Away" was ineligible to chart due to the fact that it didn't have a physical release). It was and still is the fastest-selling album of all time in the UK, selling over 650,000 copies in the week after its release. However, sales dropped off after only being on the market for two weeks so hard that, by 1999, it was one of the most frequently donated albums to secondhand stores. | |

After the End: The music video of "D'You Know What I Mean?", complete with helicopters, a crowd of people clad in army fatigues, and crumbling concrete buildings in the distance. | |

| Be Here Now (Music) / int_361d0d58 | comment |
Concept Video: "Stand by Me" attempts this, with some sort of crime-driven video, but if Noel's commentary on the Time Flies... special is any indication, they didn't do a very good job. | |

Suddenly Shouting: The group scream right before the guitar solo in "Fade In-Out". Doubles as a pretty effective Jump Scare as well. | |

| Be Here Now (Music) / int_8b6e8d7 | comment |
Anachronic Order: The music video for "Stand by Me", which begins with people doing illegal acts (tackling a woman, breaking into a car, stealing computers from a store), but ends with the clips played again with more context, which reveals they were helping people (getting her out of the way of an oncoming motorcycle, helping a man open his locked car, and getting heavy boxes off of a motorcyclist who crashed through the shop's window, respectively). | |

Truck Driver's Gear Change | |
| Be Here Now (Music) / int_92d6af50 | comment |
Truck Driver's Gear Change: "All Around the World" begins with several verses and choruses in B, hops up to C for a couple of choruses (but only one in the music video), and then concludes in D for the final twenty- or thirty-ish chorus repetitions. (Some sheet music transcriptions of the song also notate a few bars as being in A: the "It's gonna be OK" repeats between the C and D choruses.) Noel Gallagher commented, possibly with tongue in cheek: "Imagine how much better 'Hey Jude' would have been with three key changes towards the end!" | |

Drugs Are Bad | |
| Be Here Now (Music) / int_de7b7cbf | comment |
Drugs Are Bad: According to Noel, the band was high on cocaine during most of the recording, resulting in the overlong tracks and excessive instrumentation. Many believe that the absurd lyrics are the result of this. | |

Word Salad Lyrics: One of the most common complaints against the album is its nonsensical and often quite silly lyrics. "Magic Pie" probably captures it best: | |

Last Note Hilarity | |
| Be Here Now (Music) / int_f9d25ddf | comment |
Last Note Hilarity: "Magic Pie" ends with some random jazz and guitar samples from a Mellotron right after a rather chaotic Last Note Nightmare. After all that nonsense is done, somebody (presumably Noel) can be heard groaning "oh dear" at the very end. | |
