Another Noel pure acoustic one, from their 2nd single, Shakermaker.

It's Oasis at their most simplest. Some of the lyrics are about as daft as the title which is definitely no bad thing but it's a real feelgood reminiscing song of hope with a fantastic melody. It's also a bit more rare for a Noel solo number to be so upbeat, I love it.

His vox again is superb and lifts you up everytime you listen. I always reckon some of the finest songs are simple to play with really easy chord patterns. So It's definitely a fun one to learn on acoustic.

It's one of those songs that just feels like a proper classic Very Happy
