Oasis What's The Story - Every Song Ranked
2. Some Might Say
Being the pop Nostradamus that he was, Noel Gallagher had predicted that "Some Might Say" would become a No.1 hit for the band before he had even written it. Even with its many accolades, "Some Might Say" stands as not only a great Oasis song, but one of the best pop songs to come from the 90's.
Every single part of this track is perfect in the sense that if you removed one element, it would cease being fantastic. Liam's vocal performance is one of his best ever as he interprets Noel's lyrics of common expressions and turning them on their head. The melody is absolutely irresistible and makes for pop-rock brilliance whenever the Gallagher brothers harmonize during the verses. The song is also brilliantly arranged with different interludes that intertwine one song section to the next with the greatest of ease. While being full-blown pop, the song's rock instrumentation make it the perfect song for millions to pump their fist in the air in concert.
This song almost eclipses the 5-minute mark and each of those minutes feels like they evaporate in the sonic bliss that this song takes you to. Oasis at the peak of their powers as true rock-n-rollers.
