Released as a single on April 30th 2020, it was the first track to be released from the band in over 11 years since their 2009 single "Falling Down".
Written and sung by Noel Gallagher, the song is a lo-fi acoustic demo of an unreleased song believed to have been originally recorded in the mid-2000s.
The song is undated, but the music journalist Alexis Petridis speculates it was intended for release on either the Don't Believe the Truth or Dig Out Your Soul albums, recorded with Oasis.
Background
Until its release, the song was only known from its presence on a rough soundcheck tape recorded before a performance in Hong Kong "about 15 years ago", tweeted Gallagher the day before its release.
He stated that he had found the song on a seemingly-blank CD as a result of the lockdown related to the COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom, which drove him to look through old material. Due to Gallagher stating that he thought the song was "lost forever", it appears to have been the only existing copy of the song.
Release and reception
The BBC's Mark Savage described the song as "a laid-back, acoustic ballad ... sharing its DNA with classic Oasis songs" as "Stop Crying Your Heart Out" and "Don't Look Back in Anger". The Guardian also reacted positively to the song, called it "one of Noel Gallagher’s best latter-day efforts".
Tickets will be available to buy via a pre-sale tomorrow (Thursday) at 09:00 (UK Time and on general sale at 09:00 (UK Time) on Friday from Ticketmaster here.
I imagine he will be on stage early as he is playing at a festival in Spain on the same day.
