Champagne Supernova" is a song by the band Oasis. It was written by Noel Gallagher and sing by his brother Liam. The seven-minute anthem is the closing track on the record-breaking album (What's the Story) Morning Glory?. Though only released as a single in Australia, France and the United States, a music video was released to the music channels and, as a result, the song received much television and radio airplay. The song achieved US success, becoming the band's second #1 single on the Modern Rock Tracks chart. The song is widely considered the band's magnum opus.
The song is a fan favourite, and has received widespread critical acclaim. This is despite the fact that Noel claimed in a 2005 interview that he has still not made up his mind as to what the song actually is about, though he thinks it might be about reincarnation.
It received minor controversy due to the repeated line in the song, "Where were you while we were getting high?
In the music video, Liam has a resemblance to John Lennon, wearing rose-colored glasses and a beard.
In a radio interview for BBC, Noel joked that rhythm guitarist Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs began crying during the recording of the song because the song was so beautiful. This story was backed up by Ian Robertson who claimed, in his book Oasis: What's The Story?, the first time Noel played the song to the rest of the band -- an acoustic version on the tour bus -- Bonehead did indeed cry.
