About this song
Noel Gallagher wrote the song right after picking up a Les Paul that Johnny Marr had lent to the band while they were recording their debut album. Although it was never released as a single, it became a fan favorite and one of the hits from Definitely Maybe, and it was included on the 2006 compilation Stop The Clocks. NME's Keith Cameron praised it as a heart-rending love song when reviewing the album.
