comment |
Definitely Maybe is the debut studio album by English rock band Oasis, released on August 29, 1994.Noel Gallagher joined his little brother Liam's band in 1992. They worked on demos and played numerous live gigs. They finally released their first song, "Columbia", in late 1993. Much to their surprise, it started getting played. The band then decided it was time to record an album. After two ill-fated attempts and going through a few producers, they finally settled on producer Owen Morris and recorded the album in a few weeks. Prior to the release, they sent out two singles: "Supersonic" and "Shakermaker". |

Mood Whiplash |
| | Definitely Maybe (Music) / int_a4c37cbe |
comment |
Mood Whiplash: Let's see... the hard-rocking "Cigarettes & Alcohol" goes into the lighthearted novelty tune "Digsy's Dinner," which goes into the sprawling, anthemic ballad "Slide Away", and then the acoustic ditty "Married With Children". |

Loudness War: While not nearly as bad as (What's the Story) Morning Glory? and Be Here Now, this album is one of the worst offenders, for sure. |

comment |
Take That!: "Live Forever" was written in response to the Nirvana song "I Hate Myself and Want to Die"; although Noel Gallagher admired Kurt Cobain, he found the song too depressing for his tastes: |

Splash of Color: During the black-and-white scenes in the "Live Forever" music video, the only color that is shown is the green in the bushes and plants, although it doesn't appear it's supposed to mean anything important. |

Shout-Out |
| | Definitely Maybe (Music) / int_c75df49a |
comment |
Shout-Out: "Shakermaker" is based around the melody of "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing (In Perfect Harmony)". Yes, the song from the vintage Coke commercial in The '70s. The lyrics also name drop Mr Soft, the mascot from the Trebor Soft Mint adverts of the time (and whose theme tune was sung by Steve Harley of Cockey Rebel.) |

Word Salad Lyrics: "Shakermaker". Noel wrote it by sitting in front of the television one day and just jotting down whatever words or phrases came on. |
