Oasis co-frontman Noel Gallagher never made a secret of his use of other classic songs as building blocks in his new tunes. Of course, all songwriters are inspired by the work that came before them, but sometimes this recycling of older songs has got Noel and Oasis into hot water.
The outro music to this video is my track "Clap" which you can hear in full on Spotify: open.spotify.com/artist/0wKKJ...

@PlanetoftheDeaf Месяц назад

I think the legal cases with Noel's songs have been fair, in that where he's lifted too much he's had to share royalties, whereas just borrowing a riff or a couple of introductory chords can be justified as one writer "honouring" another, or "fair borrowing" which all song writers have done.

@radidov5333 Месяц назад

yeah its a very complex issue, people tell it like is just that, noel said it as he's saying he lift it but even he knows that he really is not "lifting" a song and some cases even the riff (like in cigarettes and alcohol) coz I think we want to prove a point that no music its truly 100% original when "borrows, lifts, steals,etc" he's really just using some inspiration to create something new.. sometimes is really tiny sometimes is goes over like in the case of Step out.

@goodyeoman4534 Месяц назад

True. There is no clear line between a passing homage and a cynical steal. If it were that easy, ofc, loads more bands would be able to write better songs, but they can't.

plagiarism implies intent. People who don't play/write music usually can't grasp how this happens as often as it does.

I'm not partial to Oasis either way but Noel is hilarious and I see no reason not to believe him. musicians spend more time playing than listening by nature if they're professionals.

There's one more (maybe smaller one). "All the young dudes" and "stand by me" by Oasis. Both in the chorus have very specific three chords at the end of line and then jump in at odd meter to the next line. Third out of those chords is different but overall it is extremely reminiscent 😀

Small correction. Step Out was included in early promos of WTSMG sent to the press in 1995. It quickly reached Stevie Wonder’s ears and that’s when they got in trouble and took the track out and the album was released the same year. About a year later they included it on the DLBIA single as a b-side. The video says it was the other way around.

Interesting what influenced some of Jeff Lynne's compositions. Eg. "Turn To Stone" (Four Tops), "Stange Magic" ("Ups And Downs", Eddysons), all released about 1967-68 when Idle Race were vying for the charts but never made it. "Can't Get It Out Of My Head" must have a comparison somewhere, also "Ma-Ma-Ma Belle" (Brown Sugar), Lynne's "Come With Me" actually quotes "Love Is Blue" in the lyrics! And one more - "Telephone Line" ("Hello How Are You" - Easybeats), also 1968!!

As you just showed in this video. And when Noel was sued for it all he had to say was ‘eh we drink Pepsi now.’ And that’s not the only song Shakermaker borrowed from! The guitar melody (or at least the first two notes of that melody) may have been inspired by Anthem by Ringo Starr.

This is just how music works, we have only 12 notes to chose from, there's a limited number of ways to arrange those 12 notes so that they sound good, we need to fit them in a 4/4 grid, and we write in a recognizable style, a genre. That actually leaves very little space to be truly original. Music is about building on the shoulders of giants.

There's a story about Oasis from the early days when they used to rent a communal rehearsal space in Manchester to work on their first album. According to the story, other bands that rented the complex would stop and hear Oasis rehearse the same ten songs over and over again, and after a while it became obvious to them that their songs were blatant rip offs of other well known songs. This led to one of the band members that used the facilities to go over to Oasis' rehearsal room door, and posting a note that read: "Get your own riffs!"

Oasis definitely came out with an amazing finished product on all of these - whatever people may think. I would have loved to have seen more bands sounding like the Beatles.. I was aware of some of these tunes. Axe Corner (Tortuga) has stunned me! Columbia (my favourite Oasis tune ever). Oasis’s take and improvisation is phenomenal. And they institutionalised that refrain! Looking at the comments I don’t see anyone picking up on ‘Oasis - The Turning’ / ‘Devil Woman - Cliff Richard’. I understand a lot of the negativity here. Oasis were a band who helped me through my youth with a variety of things. If they had to use other peoples lego to make a SuperCastle - so be it! It sounds f&%/ing better! 🙂

I love parodies, parody in general, and when the musician gives a nod to their favorite artist, I think that's the greatest honor. What you brought out about Neil Innes - and the connection with Oasis, I hadn't heard before. Which is great because Neil got hammered with copyright infringements for his [quite intentional but still I feel creative work] Beatles references. As a songwriter, it's SO easy to accidentally use a few chords that sound good together and suddenly you committed a copyright violation. But when you purposefully do it, and then creatively work it into a new work - there are allowances for it. I see no problem with it and it's not like you are blatantly stealing or taking credit for work [aka 2-3 chords that sound good together.] There's so much work that goes into a song, the time signature, chords, rhythm, key, the lyrics, the recording and overall production... Unfortunately, all that work can be subject to court hearings and how the money gets divided, in the end. Noel explains it 🙌 in his interviews!
