GO LET IT OUT.
Background info.

Oasis by numbers, but also a slice of rock histrionics that builds triumphantly from a loose guitar strum. Complete with bulbous bass-line and bomb-blast guitars, Liam's sky-scraping exhortation heralds a dramatic return to the fray.

Noel: "It’s a tiny little bit about how in England we're quite fascinated by how famous and rich people act like absolute knobheads twenty four hours a day. We're fascinated by that - we even put them on the front on newspapers - and especially saying: Is it any wonder people act like that?"

Noel "We picked Go Let It Out for the first single because it contains and represents everything that the band is about and also it's a good representation of what people will hear on the album. It's quite groovy, it's got a brilliant bassline, it's got the Sixties psychedelic feel, but it's also got the big guitar sound you would expect from Oasis. I played bass on that track, and that's me running my fingers up and down the strings."

Go Let It Out is inspired by a poem called A Bag Of Tools.


lyrics

Isn't it strange
That princes and kings,
And clowns that caper
In sawdust rings,
And common people
Like you and me
Are builders for eternity?

Each is given a bag of tools,
A shapeless mass,
A book of rules;
And each must make--
Ere life is flown-
A stumbling block
Or a steppingstone.
