Let There Be Love" is a song on the British rock band Oasis' sixth album, Don't Believe the Truth. Written by Noel Gallagher, it is the second Oasis song to feature Liam and Noel on lead vocals, the first being the B-Side "Acquiesce". It was released on November 28th 2005 as the third single from the album in the UK, and the second single in the US. It reached number two in the UK charts, capping a very successful year for the band. Many critics cited this song as proof that Oasis had returned to form we had seen in the mid-90's.
A demo for the track was recorded during demo sessions for Standing on the Shoulder of Giants. A bootleg of these demo sessions was leaked onto the Internet in early 2000. This track was given the unofficial title "It's A Crime" on many bootlegs as the track was unknown and unreferenced anywhere before then. The album version of the song is structurally almost exactly as the same as the demo with a slight change in melody in the part that Noel sings. The lyrics to the chorus remains intact, but the verses and bridge have totally rewritten lyrics.
The single version of the song omits the second verse and chorus.
A second, Noel-sung demo was released on the "Let There Be Love" DVD single. It has the same lyrics as the album version, and in fact the album version takes some elements from the demo such as the piano. It was probably recorded sometime in 2003 or 2004, prior to the main Don't Believe the Truth recording sessions.
The video is a montage of some of Oasis' live shows during the summer of 2005 including clips of the gigs at Hampden Park and the City of Manchester Stadium. The clips don't actually show the band playing 'Let There Be Love'.
The song has only been played live once, on an Italian radio show in late 2005.

Adele

In a not-so-shocking turn of events Adele's 25 has smashed chart records, with 800,307 sales in a week.
It's the fastest selling album in chart history, overtaking Oasis's record-breaking album Be Here Now which sold 696,000 copies in its first chart week.
However, the Gallagher brothers' 1997 triumph was after only three days on sale. It was released on a Thursday and charted on a Sunday.
Compared with 25's first three days of sales, Oasis easily outshine Adele.
Be Here Now sold 158,000 more copies than 25, which shifted 538,000 in 72 hours.
So the comparison you've been hearing about is not like-for-like over a seven-day period.
Over a full week, Liam and Noel still sold more.
Be Here Now shifted 813,000 in that time compared to Adele's 800,307.
So whichever way you look at it, Oasis still beat Adele.
And in those days, before downloading existed, you had to go and buy a physical CD at the shops.
The Official Chart doesn't use a like-for-like seven-day comparison.
In the past music released on any day before the day of the Official Chart was eligible to chart that week.
Earlier this year, The Official Chart moved from Sundays to Fridays to reflect the global change.
Now all music is released on Fridays worldwide, and then has the chance of charting the following Friday.
The success of Adele and 25 should still be applauded of course, especially as the album is unavailable to stream on Spotify.
And she did break the US album record for sales.
But what happened in August 1997 with Liam and Noel is still the record breaker and is unlikely to ever be beaten.
No other act has sold as many copies of an album in the same period.

The former Oasis star is a big fan of purchasing music but admits he has recently starting using download services as he can no longer visit record stores without getting mobbed by fans.
His 2015 album Chasing Yesterday is the U.K.'s bestselling vinyl record of the year (15), but Noel is convinced sales will never recover from the slump caused by online trading and he is certain no one will be buying records by the end of 2019.
Asked about topping the list of vinyl sales, he tells Q magazine, "For the people who still want to buy and own music, for me to be sat at the top of that list really is great. Until you look at how many people are actually buying it and it's like a thousand albums! F**king hell, I've probably got more than a thousand sat in my office right now. But it's the streaming thing, there will be no record sales by the end of the decade, I think."
Admitting he has finally given in and started downloading music himself after years of shunning the practice, he adds, "Well, where do you buy records these days? I can't go to (music store chain) HMV. How long do you think it would take me to get out of HMV if I went in? If I go into a record store they usually turn into autograph sessions so I avoid them now. I think that's the way music is going now though, for me anyway, I'm more into tracks."
