Oasis - All Around The World + Reprise (Original Video) HD
“All Around the World“ is a song by the English rock band Oasis, written by the band’s lead guitarist and principal songwriter Noel Gallagher. Released on 12 January 1998, the track peaked at number one in the UK Singles Chart; it is the longest single ever to do so (the track on both the CD and 12“ release is 18 seconds longer than the album version found on Be Here Now). It is also the longest song ever recorded by Oasis. The single went gold in the UK. This was the last Oasis single to be released on the Creation Records label. The song also reached #15 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart.
“All Around the World“, nearly ten minutes long, is embellished with string and horn pieces, and is followed by a two-minute-long instrumental, “All Around the World (Reprise)“. Upon its release the reviews were generally positive. As with many Oasis songs, such as “Whatever“, “Acquiesce“, “Live Forever“ it sends the message that “everything’s gonna be okay“. The song features a backing vocal of “na-na-na“’s in the coda similar to the corresponding section in The Beatles’ song “Hey Jude“.
The photograph on the front of the single was taken on Bournemouth beach in Dorset, England.
“All Around the World“, compuesta por Noel Gallagher para su banda Oasis, se encuentra tanto en el álbum Be Here Now de 1997 como en el sencillo de mismo título de 1998. La canción fue compuesta a principios de la década de 1990, pero Noel no pudo terminar la versión correcta hasta 1997. Con muchos arreglos de cuerdas, y percusión el tema es la base del tercer álbum de la banda. All around the world dura 9 minutos y 38 segundos. Con un video al estilo Yellow Submarine de The Beatles la canción alcanzó el puesto 1 en el Reino Unido. Los lados b que se encuentran en el sencillo son, “The Fame“, “Flashbax“ y el cover de los Rolling Stones, “Street Fighting Man“. Años después de ese comentario, el tema es visto como una de las mejores obras de la banda de Mánchester.
