On This Day In Oasis History...

"D'You Know What I Mean?" is a song by British rock band Oasis. It was the first single from their third album Be Here Now and was released on the 7th July 1997. It reached #1 in the UK singles chart, the 3rd Oasis song to do so. The song was written by Noel Gallagher. It was certified platinum for UK sales.

At the time "D'You Know What I Mean" was released, Oasis were at the height of their fame, and as a result, the single, along with the album, was highly anticipated. Upon its release it was critically and commercially successful.

The guitar chords on both the verse and the chorus are similar to the chords used for the Oasis single "Wonderwall" (F#m7/A/Esus4/Bsus4).

The song also shows more of Noel's influences. References include Bob Dylan ("Blood on the tracks and they must be mine"), and The Beatles ("Fool on the hill and I feel fine"), and even their own earlier work ("Don't look back in Anger "). The song also features a drum loop from N.W.A.

The Morse code in the background translates to include such sayings as "bugger all", "pork pies" and "Strawberry Fields Forever." Oasis haven't performed this song since 2002.




















B-Sides

One of the B-sides, "Stay Young", has become a popular Oasis song, so much so that fans voted it onto the B-sides collection The Masterplan - one of only two B-sides from the Be Here Now period which made the album. The song was originally intended to be the "Digsy's Dinner" of Be Here Now (the lighthearted novelty track, such as "Digsy's Dinner" on Definitely Maybe and "She's Electric" on (What's the Story) Morning Glory?), until Noel set it aside in favour of "Magic Pie". Gallagher claims not to be particularly fond of the track.

Interview

In a 1997 interview promoting Be Here Now, Noel Gallagher had the following to say about the first single: "I was going to make up some profound statement in the chorus but I couldn't come up with anything that fitted. Then I just thought "All my people right here, right now. D'You Know What I Mean? Yeah, Yeah" Very vague, very ambiguous, that'll do. Look in the mirror and wink while you're singing it and it's quite saucy. And I f***ing love that line, 'Coming in a mess, going out in style'. We were a bunch of scruffs from Manchester and we're going out in a Rolls Royce."

In another 1997 interview, this time on BBC, Noel Gallagher said: "I cant believe I wrote it, it's going to blow people away."

"The morse code in the background was inspired by Strawberry Fields. We got hold of a code book and tried to tap out 'Bugger All' to follow that line 'Don't look back cos you know what you might see'. But if anyone can tell me what we really said, please let me know. Profound lagerisms..."

Seven Ages of Rock

In an interview with the BBC for their documentary Seven Ages of Rock, Gallagher said of the song, "Its eight and a half minutes, the first single, the drums haven't fuckin' come in for two minutes- its all feedback!". He also says that he expected someone to ask them to edit the introduction to the song down, but such was their status in Britain, nobody did. They even performed the song on Top of the Pops, still playing most of the lengthy introduction.

The performance on Top of the Pops ended with a stage invasion by surrounding fans- the second of three stage invasions in the whole history of the show (the first was Nirvana and the last Symposium).

Cover information

The single cover photograph, by Michael Spencer Jones and directed by Brian Cannon of Microdot, was taken in front of the 'Blind Steps', a staircase in Wigan so called because they run past the Blind Workshop, which can be seen to the left of the shot. The steps can still be found on Darlington Street. The shoot was shrouded in secrecy to protect mass media coverage, but newspaper The Wigan Evening Post got exclusive rights to cover the event and subsequently sold the photos to the Daily Mirror. At a lunchtime break, Liam Gallagher and sleeve designer Brian Cannon enjoyed a pint of beer in the nearby Crispin Arms pub by Birkett Bank.

Music video



The music video is filmed at Beckton Gas Works in London with many military helicopters and a strange landscape of concrete slabs and torn down buildings. Liam Gallagher is wearing a snorkel parka and sports a unique pair of sunglasses.

Noel Gallagher Says Pep Guardiola Is Like A Jedi

Noel Gallagher has told talkSPORT new Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has not come to England ‘just pick up a cheque’ and insists the Spaniard will strive for move glory in charge at the Etihad.

Guardiola has officially begun his role as City boss having been confirmed as Manuel Pellegrini’s successor back in February.

Having won six league titles, four cup competitions and two Champions League crowns with previous clubs Barcelona and Bayern Munich, Guardiola is expected to turn an inconsistent City side into a force on a domestic and European stage.

Rock legend Gallagher was one of the first to meet and interview the coach at the club’s training ground, and he joined Monday’s Sports Bar show to discuss the encounter.

“I was really impressed by him,” the High Flying Birds frontman told Andy Goldstein and Jason Cundy.

“He’s got that glint in his eye and he’s really young. Most managers come across like school teachers and prison wardens, but Pep feels like he’s one of the lads.

“I was asking him how the current squad would fare and how he’d know if players were going to be with him or not, and he just said: ‘I can smell it on them. I can literally smell it on them’.

“He said it wouldn’t take him long to figure out who is great and who isn’t, who he needs and who he doesn’t.

“Pep has got a legacy to protect, he’s not going to go there to just pick up the cheque and say, ‘oh well that was fun in England’.

“He’s going to want to come and win everything in the first season. That’s the thing I got off him.

“You look into his eyes, and he’s like a Jedi!”

Roman Abramovich ‘Slapped Noel Gallagher In The Face’ With His Wallet

We all know Noel Gallagher is a massive Manchester City fan.

The former Oasis guitarist has a box at the Etihad and is a regular in the away crowd when his beloved Citizens are on their travels.

But did you know the musician is willing to go to extraordinary lengths to prove his commitment to the cause?

Speaking on the Dream Team FC podcast, Sun deputy editor Gordon Smart claims Gallagher and Abramovich had a spat a few years ago.

It’s best if we let him explain…

“Noel Gallagher and I went to see U2 at Wembley in 2009,” he said.

“We went into the dressing room and it was an unbelievable who’s who of famous folk. Roman Abramovich, Bill Clinton, Salman Rushdie, Damian Hirst.

“Noel and I got really really steaming. Noel said ‘come on, we’ll go speak to Abramovich’.

“So, we wandered across slightly pissed. Abramovich’s missus does all the translating for him.

“Noel says to her, ‘tell him I’m a Man City fan and Man City have more money him’.

“She translates and Abramovich puts his hand in his pocket, pulls out a wallet and slapped Noel in the face with it!

“In a way that was a little bit more than friendly!

“Noel laughed. The conversation carried on and we were obviously enjoying it a lot more than he was.

“Then this massive lump of a bloke with an earpiece came across and said, ‘Mr Gallagher, Mr Smart…could you leave Mr Abramovich alone now.'”
