(What's the Story) Morning Glory? is the second studio album by Oasis. It was a smash hit critically and commercially, spawning the hit singles "Roll with It", "Some Might Say", "Champagne Supernova", "Don't Look Back in Anger", "Morning Glory", and "Wonderwall".After the success of their debut album, Definitely Maybe, the bar was certainly raised high. After being recorded in just 15 days, it was released on October 2, 1995, to such success that it was reported that a copy was sold every two minutes. It has sold over 4.5 million copies in the UK and is currently the fifth-best selling album of all time there.Alongside Blur's Parklife, Suede's Self-Titled Album and Supergrass's I Should Coco, it has been hailed as a defining album of the Britpop era in British music, ranging from 1992 to 1997.Followed up by their 1997 album Be Here Now. |

Special Guest: Paul Weller, who plays guitar in "Champagne Supernova" (and "The Swamp Song", featured in the nameless excerpts). "Cast No Shadow" is dedicated to him. |

Ode to Intoxication: "Morning Glory" has a few not-very-subtle cocaine references, though it's not the only example in their discography. |

| (What's the Story) Morning Glory? (Music) / int_5a268981 |
comment |
Three Chords and the Truth: "Wonderwall" is semi-infamous for having an extremely simplistic chord progression, which makes it prime material for beginner guitar players to play for practice's sake. |

Freeze-Frame Bonus |
| (What's the Story) Morning Glory? (Music) / int_62f9d08e |
comment |
Freeze-Frame Bonus: "Hello" opens with "Wonderwall" playing on the background before the song starts proper. Two excerpts from "The Swamp Song" are passage tracks with no name in the album. The 20th Anniversary Deluxe Edition's second disc features the whole track. "Acquiesce" has a nice one hidden at the beginning and end of the track: Noel on a guitar, on what is apparently "Morning Glory"'s demo. Note: "Morning Glory" is the one of the album tracks whose demo didn't end up on the 20th Anniversary Deluxe Edition. A second one, even more hidden on the same song's intro, has a small conversation between Liam and co-producer Owen Morris played backwards. |

Loudness War: One of the worst offenders in fact, and the one album that started it all. The title track in particular is so rife with audible digital distortion (especially towards the end) that it borders on unlistenable for some. |

Shout-Out |
| (What's the Story) Morning Glory? (Music) / int_c75df49a |
comment |
Shout-Out: The album title is a line off "The Telephone Hour" from Bye Bye Birdie, which Noel learned as a friend (who would inspire the B-side "Talk Tonight") answered the phone like that. "Wonderwall" is a reference to George Harrison's album Wonderwall Music; it also has the line "And all the roads we have to walk are winding". "Roll With It" has "'Cause it's all too much for me to take". "Don't Look Back in Anger", along with an "Imagine"-esque piano intro, the second verse draws from a John Lennon quote during the Bed-In ("trying to start a revolution from my bed, because they said the brains I had went to my head"). The final line from "Morning Glory" has "Tomorrow never knows what it doesn't know too soon". |

Lyrics/Video Mismatch: The music video for "Morning Glory" has the band performing the song loudly in an apartment complex, while the building's other tenants come up to the door to bang on it and yell at them to keep it down. Justified, though; if they made a video depicting cocaine use, it would never air on television. |

Fading into the Next Song: "Morning Glory" → track 11 → "Champagne Supernova". The Greatest Hits Album maintains this fade, but with the radio noise at the end of "Morning Glory"/start of track 11 leading straight into the water sounds at the end of track 11/start of "Champagne Supernova", with the "Swamp Song" segment removed. |
