Band Name Origins:
- Noel was a roadie for a group called the Inspiral Carpets, they were doing a gig in the 'Oasis' leisure centre, in Swindon (Wiltshire/England). Noel suggested 'Oasis'as a band name and the rest is history. Submitted by: slick joe marvel
- Noel was the roadie for a band called the Inspiral Carpets. They played a show (among others) at a club in Swindon called Oasis, and Liam had a promotional poster for this gig on his bedroom wall. Liam joined a band called The Rain that already featured Bonehead, Guigsy and Tony McCarroll, as their singer. They changed their name to Oasis for whatever reason, taking it from Liam's poster. The band were already called Oasis when Noel joined them. This info can be found in a book called "The Last Party" by John Harris. Submitted by: Hard Harry

Nonsensical Lyrics:
"Wonderwall"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: After all,
you're my Wonderwall Why They're Nonsensical: I have said several times that when you try to get at the origins of crazy lyrics you're sometimes left even more bereft of a clue as to what they're all about.There are so many explanations which tend to sound even crazier than the lines themselves I've found.Having said that,on a few occasions you hear an excplanation which,even though wierd in itself,has a whiff of the truth about it.Some time ago I wrote about Wonderwall.Like,what's with comparing his girlfriend to a wall?That kind of thing.How about this for an origin.It has it's roots,apparently,in a movie by the same name.This features some dirty old man who has drilled a hole right through the wall to the apartment next door,so he can spy on the chick living there.Thus he has made his Wonderwall.If indeed that is the true origin of the number,then all I can say is what a way to refer to your lover.Like,he's saying I'M the dirty old man and YOU'RE the chick next door-In effect YOU'RE that WONDERWALL experience.This could indeed be the truth behind those fool lyrics.Nothing would surprise me.Just goes to show guys that the only thing that will back up craziness is even more craziness,even if it is the truth.Now I'm effectively left thinking that that ludicrous line After all,you're my Wonderwall,is TWICE as ludicrous.

Insulting Lyrics:
"Married With Children"
The Insulting Lyrics: I hate the way that you are so sarcastic,
And you're not very bright, You think that everything you've done's fantastic, Your music's shite it keeps me up all night. Why They're Insulting: The insulting part is obvious, I just wonder if this was a song that Noel Gallagher wrote about a woman, or if he was insulting Liam again.
