Wonderwall
Oasis
"Wonderwall" is a song by the English rock band Oasis, written by the band's guitarist and main songwriter Noel Gallagher. According to Gallagher, "Wonderwall" describes "an imaginary friend who's gonna come and save you from yourself". The song was released as the third single from the album (What's the Story) Morning Glory? in October 1995.
"Wonderwall" topped the chart in Australia, New Zealand and Spain, reached the top ten on other ten charts, including the Canada and United States at number 5 and 8 respectively, as well as number two on the both UK Singles Chart and Irish Singles Chart. The single was certified platinum by the British Phonographic Industry and certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America.
The song won Best British Video at the 1996 Brit Awards.
The cover artwork was inspired by the paintings of the Belgian surrealist René Magritte. The hand holding the frame is that of art director Brian Cannon. The original idea was to have Liam Gallagher, vocalist, in the frame. Instead a female figure was deemed necessary and Anita Heryet, a Creation Records employee, was asked to stand in as cover star for the shot.
