"Shakermaker" is a song by British rock group Oasis, written by their lead guitarist Noel Gallagher. First appearing as a single, released on the 13th June 1994, which peaked at number 11 in the UK charts, it was later released on Oasis' groundbreaking debut album Definitely Maybe. It was also the first song performed by the band on the UK's world famous music program, Top Of The Pops.
Gallagher admits the lyrics are taken from the world around him, for example, a Shaker Maker was a popular toy in the 1970s, the character of "Mr Soft" was taken from a Trebour Soft Mints commercial, which featured Cockney Rebel's song "Mr Soft", "Mr. Clean" is a song by The Jam, one of Gallagher's favourite bands, "Mr Benn" is a British children's cartoon and the entire last verse - Mr Sifter sold me songs/When I was just 16/Now he stops at traffic lights/But only when they're green - was written in a taxi on the way to the recording studio to record the song. Apparently, Liam Gallagher was pestering Noel to finish the song. At this point, the taxi stopped at the traffic lights outside 'Sifter's"' (a record shop in Burnage, Manchester). Noel penned the lyric and it became part of the song. Noel used to frequent the store to buy old records before Oasis started releasing albums and Mr Sifter refers to the owner of the record store.

Liam Gallagher has lashed out at his brother Noel Gallagher for splitting up Oasis, saying the band is now done, while criticising him over his One Love Manchester no show in an epic rant.
Since Noel’s no-show at One Love Manchester, the chances of an Oasis reunion have been getting slimmer and slimmer.
As Liam Gallagher sets out on his solo tour, the singer appeared on Chris Evans’ BBC Radio 2 show to promote his new album, As You Were.
Apart from announcing he’s performing at Glastonbury Festival 2017, the star was asked by Evans for an update on a Oasis reunion.
Liam replied: “Oasis, that’s done mate. That’s done and has been done for a long, long time.”
He continued: “Regardless of what happened over the weekend or whatever – Noel Gallagher doesn’t want it. Full stop. He’s quite happy doing his stuff.
“He doesn’t want to have to entertain me because he knows I won’t stand for his stuff. Do you know what I mean?
“He wants to surround himself with little yes men that he can hire and fire whenever he wants, but he’s not getting that with me.
“It doesn’t matter about me digging him out or underlining the lack of empathy and sympathy that he has for people in Manchester. That’s got nothing to do with it. Oasis is done.”
Liam added: “I didn’t want the band to split up in the first place. He’s made out like something really terrible has happened.
“He wanted to end because he wanted to go solo. I don’t know why people can’t get that into their heads. I’d do it, but it ain’t happening.
“Every time I say I’d do it, it sounds like I’m desperate for it. I’ve got this coming out now, the songs are absolutely stomping.
“Also, I’m better looking, a better singer, I’m just cooler all round. You’d have to ask him. I don’t know what his problem is, but he’s milking it mate.”
