Oasis fans….help!

[TheMasterplan23]

I’m getting married in December and want to walk down the aisle to Oasis. They’ve been my favourite band for as long as I remember and nothing else would feel right.

I have a problem though…which song?

I have my ultimate favourites. The Masterplan, Stop crying your heart out, Little by little, Don’t go away, Round are way, Roll it over…..
but I don’t know if my love for those songs is obscuring the fact that they’re perhaps not suitable?

Wonderwall is a great tune, but overplayed over the years and not ‘special’ enough to me.

What would you choose?

Thanks!

I can empathise… I love The Charlatans and chose Try Again Today. It meant loads to us as a couple but were worried about suitability and we explored lots of other bands and songs before we decided to go for it anyway. (First dance, not walking down the aisle)

Of the songs you mention:

Little by Little would definitely work - it’s about growing together and has some romantic lyrics.

The Masterplan could also work - destiny.

Wonderwall isn’t really a love song from what I’ve heard of the origins.

Songbird? Quite upbeat.

Songbird

Not Oasis but we had Noel Gallagher's If I Had a Gun as our first dance.

I love Little by Little. Will think of others that might work too.

Talk Tonight

Talk tonight

Definitely Champagne supernova!

@JorisBonson great minds!

@Tryingtogetitright absolutely love this track!

Let there be love?

I’m a fan of Champagne Supernova. Tone works well, the lyrics are relatively nonsensical!

Little by Little would definitely work - it’s about growing together and has some romantic lyrics

I don't think it works for a wedding...the wheels of your life have slowly fallen off...why am I really here...etc

Cigarettes and Alcohol.

We played Live Forever at our reception. They played it in a club on our second date so it reminds us of bellowing tunelessly at each other.

Slide Away? The acoustic version Noel sings is gorgeous.

Acquiesce? Some lovely lyrics.

Another vote for Live Forever. I think it’s beautiful.

“We see things they’ll never see” is very romantic.

Married with children?!

My serious suggestions are slide away, or live forever. Hope you have an excellent day.

"You and I, you know we're going to live forever" sounds pretty perfect for a wedding!

Could you go for a music only / piano version of your favourite song? that way the lyrics won't matter but you will know it has meaning

I vote songbird as well. I know it’s not strictly oasis, but near enough. It was almost my waking down the aisle song but was piped at the post ☺️

Another vote for Slide Away

Stand by me

Yea Little by little would be great apart from the wheels falling off 😂

I did think about Noel’s - If I had a gun (acoustic) but as we’re getting married in a church I think the “you’re the only god that I will I ever need” might not be appropriate.

Talk tonight is a good shout…although that is DP and his brothers song (they always sing it together after a few pints) so that might not work either.

I think I’m overthinking it now….

Let there be Love?

Will you have the full version of the song you choose or cut it down for walking down the aisle?

Would ‘Stop crying your heart out’ be really weird?

The song means so much to me and we always sing it at the top of our voices in the car 😂 but people that don’t know the song might think it’s sad….where as to me, it’s a song about leaving your past and looking to the future.

And for those that suggested Songbird, it’s a great song….just doesn’t really have a special connection for me. (And Liam looked odd in the video 🤔😂)

@SingingSands

Ive thought about Let there be love and to me that makes the most sense and would probably make the most sense to everyone else….but I’m not sure I want it to make sense 😂 I don’t want it to be the ‘obvious choice’ I feel kinda like that about Slide Away too
