10 Classic Songs That Secretly Inspired Oasis

10. My Sweet Lord - George Harrison

Not every one of these songs are built the same.

For the most part, Supersonic does seem mostly original, given that most of the song was just written on the fly by Noel when the band was recording. He did seem to slack off when it came time to make that guitar part, however, with it being extremely similar to the opening of My Sweet Lord by George Harrison. From Noel's perspective, this was completely involuntary, saying that that riff just came to him when he was playing rather than being premeditated.

If you move both of these songs into the same key though, the guitar parts are undeniably similar, with Harrison's version just having a different guitar harmony added into the mix.

Any similarities to this track in particular are a bit ironic though, since Harrison himself was called out for plagiarism for My Sweet Lord from the writers of He's So Fine by the Chiffons.
