In 1995, "Wonderwall" was released as the third single from Oasis' album "(What's the Story) Morning Glory?". The song became a huge hit, propelling the band to global success and making it one of the most iconic songs of the 1990s. But the story behind the song is as interesting as the music itself.

Noel Gallagher wrote "Wonderwall" during a tour with the band in the US, in a hotel room in San Francisco. According to some accounts, he wrote the song for his then-girlfriend, Meg Mathews. But in an interview years later, Gallagher stated that the song was actually written for his mother, Peggy, who had left him a note with the words "Wonderwall" on it.

In the podcast, we'll dive deeper into the making of "Wonderwall", exploring the different theories behind its lyrics and the story of how the song came to be. We'll also look at the impact it had on Oasis' career and the music industry as a whole, cementing the band's status as one of the greatest of their time.
