"Wonderwall" - 4:19 2. "Round Are Way" - 5:42 3. "The Swamp Song" - 4:19 "Wonderwall" is a song by English rock band Oasis, written by the band's guitarist and main songwriter Noel Gallagher. Released as the third single from (What's the Story) Morning Glory? in October 1995, "Wonderwall" peaked at number two in the UK Singles Chart and proved to be their American breakthrough, reaching number eight on the Hot 100 singles chart and giving them their only top-ten U.S. hit. It also proved a hit in Australia, reaching number one in February 1996. "Wonderwall" is their signature song and it continues to have enduring popularity in Oasis's canon; as of 2008, it was 76th in the UK's list of best-selling singles, and sold over a million copies in single and download sales in the UK where it went platinum. The song is included on the band's compilation albums Stop the Clocks and Time Flies... 1994–2009. On these two albums, an audible cough is heard at the start of the song, whilst on (What's the Story) Morning Glory?, the cough is actually at the end of the previous track "Roll with It". It is often claimed that "Wonderwall" was written for Gallagher's then-girlfriend, Meg Mathews (Gallagher married Mathews in 1997; the couple divorced four years later). Gallagher now claims that the song was not about her at all, but he felt he had to go along with the rumour, saying "The meaning of that song was taken away from me by the media who jumped on it. How do you tell your missus it's not about her once she's read it is? It's a song about an imaginary friend who's gonna come and save you from yourself."In 2008 Liam Gallagher was quoted as saying about the song: "I can't ******* stand that ******* song! Every time I have to sing it I want to gag. Problem is, it was a big, big tune for us." Noel has said that Liam, "...thought we had gone too dance when I wrote 'Wonderwall' because the drums didn't go boom-boom bap, boom-boom bap." The song was recorded at Rockfield Studios in Wales, during a two-week recording of the Morning Glory album in May 1995. According to producer Owen Morris, the song was completed in 6–8 hours. It is believed Morris claimed that Gallagher had presented an alternative arrangement of the song "which had some extra complicated pre-bridge bits that didn't have singing or melody - but just had some chord changes - which seemed completely unnecessary", the night before it was recorded. This idea was quickly shelved. Noel Gallagher capos his acoustic guitar on the second fret. The chords repetitively go Em7 - G - D - A7 maintaining the same two high notes ringing throughout the changes, and the chords in the bridge go C - D - Em - G - Em - A7. Noel initially wanted to sing this song on (What's the Story) Morning Glory?, but he gave his brother Liam Gallagher the choice, and Noel ended up singing "Don't Look Back in Anger". He later noted that, in fact, he had only ever wanted to sing on "Don't Look Back in Anger", and had used "Wonderwall" as a bargaining tool. There is an acoustic excerpt of Supersonic at the very end of the song.
