Oasis: Don't Look Back in Anger (1996)

"Don't Look Back in Anger" is the first single to feature Noel Gallagher on lead vocals. The band admits to swiping lines from John Lennon and the piano resembles Lennon's "Watching the Wheels." Lennon was not the only legend Oasis borrowed from. The b-side "Step Out" resembled Stevie Wonder's "Uptight" leading Wonder to request 10% royalties. The song went platinum following its release.


...and yes that's Patrick Macnee (aka John Steed) in the video...
