Hey, if Oasis can get their audiences to do The Poznan at Live 25 then so can we.
How to do The Poznan:
Face away from the band and jump up and down to beat of the song – It couldn’t be easier.
Lyrics
Is it my imagination, or have I finally found something worth living for?
I was looking for some action, but all I found was cigarettes and alcohol.
You could wait for a lifetime, to spend your days in the sunshine.
You might as well do the white line, cuz when it comes on top.
You gotta make it happen……
Is it worth the aggravation, to find yourself a job when there’s nothing worth working for?
It’s a crazy situation, but all I need are cigarettes and alcohol.
You could wait for a lifetime, to spend your days in the sunshine.
You might as well do the white line, cuz when it comes on top
You gotta make it happen……
You gotta, you’ve gotta, you’ve gotta make it.
You gotta, you’ve gotta, you’ve gotta fake it.

Lyrics to Don’t Look Back In Anger by Oasis
Note: The only tough part of this song is remembering where to sing she, her, my, we’re, so and gonna.
Slip inside the eye of your mind,
Don’t you know you might find,
A better place to play.
You said that you’d never been,
But all the things that you’ve seen,
Slowly fade away.
So I start a revolution from my bed,
Cos you said the brains I had went to my head,
Step outside, summertime’s in bloom,
Stand up beside the fireplace,
Take that look from off your face,
You ain’t ever gonna burn my heart out.
And so Sally can wait,
She knows it’s too late as we’re walking on by.
Her soul slides away,
But don’t look back in anger, I heard you say.
Take me to the place where you go,
Where nobody knows, if it’s night or day.
And please don’t put your life in the hands,
Of a rock and roll band, we’d throw it all away.
Gonna start a revolution from my bed,
Cos you said the brains I had went to my head.
Step outside, cuz summertime’s in bloom.
Stand up beside the fireplace,
Take that look from of your face,
Cos you ain’t never gonna burn my heart out.
And So sally can wait,
She knows it’s too late as she’s walking on by,
My soul slides away,
But don’t look back in anger, I heard you say.
So Sally can wait,
She knows it’s too late as we’re walking on by,
Her soul slides away,
But don’t look back in anger, I heard you say.
So Sally can wait,
She knows it’s too late, as she’s walking on by,
My soul slides away,
But don’t look back in anger,
Don’t look back in anger, I heard you say, least not today.

In this video we asked the question should kids be allowed to goto Oasis Live ’25? Hopefully this video of young un’s singing and dancing along to our live version at RAF Brizefest answers that question.
Oasis fun facts:
Unfortunately Roll With It was the loser of the “The Battle Of Britpop” reaching number two in the UK charts with Blur’s “Country House” reaching the coveted number one position.
This is one of the only Oasis songs to start with a chorus (After the initial intro). And it has never been performed live by either Liam or Noel during their solo careers.
The first single to be released from (What’s the Story) Morning Glory was ‘Some Might Say’ which was the last song to feature original drummer Tony McCarroll.
Lyrics to Roll With It
“I know the roads down which your life will drive, I find the key that lets you slip inside. Kiss the girl she’s not behind the door. I know you think I recognise your face, but I’ve never seen you before.”

Lyrics for Smelly Cat
Smelly Cat, Smelly Cat,
What are they feeding you?
Smelly Cat, Smelly Cat,
It’s not your fault.
They won’t take you to the vet,
You’re obviously not their favourite pet,
You may not be a bed of roses,
And you’re no friend to those with noses.
Smelly Cat, Smelly Cat,
What are they feeding you?
Smelly Cat, Smelly Cat,
It’s not your fault.

About the song Smelly Cat.
Smelly Cat written by Friends writers Adam Chase and Betsy Borns first appeared in season two, episode six entitled “The One with the Baby on the Bus” and can be found on the soundtrack album “Friends Again” released 1999. The song is about a poor feline who has been mistreated by its owners and has ended up with a pungent odour possibly due to the type of nourishment it’s been receiving.
Throughout the 1990’s TV show various stars have covered the song Smelly Cat including Chrissie Hynde from The Pretenders who was actually featured in the show itself. Noted cover versions of Smelly Cat have been by famous artists Taylor Swift and Chris Isaak. Most recently during “Friends: The Reunion” aka “The One Where They Get Back Together” Lady Gaga performed Smelly Cat on guitar with Phoebe Buffay.
In the Friends episode entitled “The One Where Eddie Moves In” (Season 2 – Episode 17) a record company asks Phoebe to make a Smelly Cat music video but it ends up rerecording another woman’s voice singing the song instead of Phoebe’s. At the end of the episode as the credits role the main characters of friends, Rachel Greene, Ross Geller, Joey Tribbiani, Monica Geller and Chandler Bing all perform the song live with her at Central Perk.

Breakfast At Tiffany’s cover version by Britpop Reunion
Live at a UK festival.
Breakfast at Tiffany’s Lyrics.
This song has just two verses and the same chorus sung throughout. The first verse is sung again instead of there being a third verse, but that’s what makes it a great pop song that everyone can remember the lyrics too
Verse
You’ll say we’ve got nothing in common,
No common ground to start from,
And we’re falling apart.
You’ll say the world has come between us,
Our lives have come between us,
Still I know you just don’t care.
Chorus
And I said what about Breakfast at Tiffany’s,
She said I think I remember that film and
As I recall I think we both kind of liked it
And I said well that’s the one thing we’ve got.
Verse
I see you the only one who knew me
And now your eyes see through me,
I guess I was wrong.
So what now it’s plain to see were over,
And I hate when things are over,
With so much left undone.
