Champagne Supernova

This sprawling Britpop epic closed out Oasis’s 1995 album with a dreamlike flourish. Featuring a cameo by Paul Weller on guitar, “Champagne Supernova” swells from gentle, psychedelic verses to roaring guitar climaxes. Though it wasn’t a conventional single in the UK, its enigmatic lyrics and seven-minute length became a fan-favorite finale. Often belted out in unison at Oasis concerts, the song is a defining anthem of the Britpop era — a hazy, emotional sing-along that leaves listeners feeling like they’ve drifted into the sky on a wave of nostalgia.
