Or how familiar with what better music sounds like, as opposed to this pop-schlock drivel? |

What a God-awful song; those dreary, bland vocals!! Oasis was never in the same league as Blur and others... someone please put an end to this misery!

It's not just the song, it's Liam's posture when he sings, the tambourine, Noel's guitar. You can't see "Wonderwall" on its own, but as part of the lads' culture of the UK, mid 90s.. I think that this album and its predecessor were Oasis' best moments.

84 mad people voted this song to be a "1" 83 voted the opposite and gave it 10 points! I belong to neither group - I gave it a "12" |

JUST AN UNBELIEVABLE SONG! IS a 12 ENOUGH...? POP-ROCK AT IT'S BEST! Not for kids and beginners. America take care - GOOD ROCK WAS INVENTED IN ENGLAND! |

4: Acceptable.
Sadly this song has been destroyed by one too many bad cover bands in bars all over the country. Also the guy sings a few of his own notes flat.

Like the rest of their work, lyrics are stream of consciousness, sound 'deep', and are actually stupid meaningless tripe.

Saw them at the Hammerstein Ballroom late 90's Intel New Music festival - and - my ears are still bleeding. I think plaster fell.

It's a reference to George Harrison's 1968 'Wonderwall' soundtrack album (for an unreleased film of the same name), consisting of Indian-influenced instrumental tracks. The album was the first Beatle solo LP and the first Apple album release.
The movie "Wonderwall" was on Youtube for a while——I had some of the music for a long time and ended up watching the movie just for the heck of it. I like to see ALL movies about the psychedelic sixties; so was glad to sit through some of the silliness. |

I just think it is a good song that happens to have been done by an overrated band. Still a good song though.

Whiny and banal! When he holds the word 'me' from '...save me'...it's nails on a chalkboard. I like the accompaniment though.

Another one of those tracks that I really like, mostly because somebody else sampled it in some awesome way that sticks with me when I hear the original.
