'Up in the Sky', 'Supersonic' and 'Shakermaker' are three of the tracks on which Oasis album?
"Cigarettes & Alcohol ""Cigarettes & Alcohol"" is a song by English rock band Oasis, written by Noel Gallagher. It was released as the fourth single from their debut album ""Definitely Maybe"", and their second to enter the UK top ten in the United Kingdom, peaking at number 7 (three places higher than ""Live Forever""), eventually spending 79 weeks on the charts. On 21 April 2017, 23 years after release and 20 years after Silver certification, the song was certified Gold, indicating 400,000 shipments. Whereas the band's first two singles ""Supersonic"" and ""Shakermaker"" had used psychedelic imagery, and the third single"
"the Oasis song ""Shakermaker"" had lifted words and melody from ""I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing"". When asked about the incident, Noel Gallagher joked ""Now we all drink Pepsi."" On the third and final occasion, when promotional copies of ""(What's the Story) Morning Glory?"" were originally distributed, they contained a previously unreleased bonus song called ""Step Out"". This promotional CD was quickly withdrawn and replaced with a version that omitted the controversial song, which was allegedly similar to the Stevie Wonder song ""Uptight (Everything's Alright)"". ""Step Out"" later reappeared as the B-side to ""Don't Look Back in Anger"","
"mentions in reviews of the group that, according to Harris, ""its release [as a single] had long seemed inevitable."" In its review of the single, ""NME"" found ""Live Forever"" to be an improvement over Oasis' previous singles, concluding, ""Basically, what thus far looked like obnoxious Manc arrogance suddenly looks like sheer effortlessness. A terrific record."" While Oasis' first two singles, ""Supersonic"" and ""Shakermaker"", were modestly received, it was ""Live Forever"" that ""got the world's attention"". ""Live Forever"" became Oasis' first top ten hit, reaching number ten on the British singles charts in 1994. In 1995, the song became the band's"
"the band for journalists and radio programmers. Unexpectedly, BBC Radio 1 picked up the single and played it 19 times in the fortnight after its release. The band's first commercial single ""Supersonic"" was released on 11 April 1994. The following week it debuted at number 31 on the British singles chart. The single was followed by ""Shakermaker"" in June 1994, which debuted at number 11 and earned the group an appearance on ""Top of the Pops"". Oasis booked Monnow Valley Studio, near Monmouth, in late 1993 to record their debut album. Their producer was Dave Batchelor, whom Noel Gallagher knew"
"he only had six songs written at the time, and has put his success in the interview down to ""bullshitting"". However, McGee believes that when they met, Gallagher had fifty or so songs written, and merely lied about how prolific he had been following the contract. Richard Ashcroft was so impressed with Oasis during the time, that he invited them to tour with his band the Verve as an opening act. Gallagher claimed to have written Oasis' first single, ""Supersonic"", in ""the time it takes to play the song."" ""Supersonic"" was released in early 1994 and peaked at No.31 on"

"""I'm Outta Time"", on the UK Singles Chart, reaching number 10 in its chart entry week. This was something of a return to form for the band, after ""I'm Outta Time"" charting at number 12 made it the first Oasis single released in the UK to fail to reach the top 10 since ""Shakermaker"" in 1994. Between the two releases the band had put out 22 singles which made the top 10. However, it still showed a decline in the band's fortunes; from the release of ""Whatever"" at the end of 1994 until the release of ""I'm Outta Time"", the"

The main riff of the song is 'borrowed' from ""Get It On"" by T.

The song was released with three B-sides: a cover version of The Beatles' ""I Am the Walrus""; ""Listen Up"", a six-minute slow rocker musically similar to ""Supersonic""; and the popular, slightly punk-styled ""Fade Away"", whose"
