"'''Wonderwall'''" is a song by English [[Rock music|rock]] band [[Oasis (band)|Oasis]], released by [[Creation Records]] on 30 October 1995 as the fourth single from the band's second studio album ''[[(What's the Story) Morning Glory?]]''. Described by lead guitarist and chief songwriter [[Noel Gallagher]], who wrote the song and co-produced it with [[Owen Morris]], as being about "an imaginary friend who's gonna come and save you from yourself",<ref name="BBCE">{{cite news | title=BBC Radio 2 interview, October 2002 | url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/music/2337721.stm | access-date=8 August 2006 | date=17 October 2002 |work=BBC News}}</ref> "Wonderwall" reached the top ten in 15 countries; it topped the charts in Australia and New Zealand, peaked at {{abbr|No.|Number}} 2 on both the [[UK Singles Chart]] and the [[Irish Singles Chart]], and reached the top 10 in Canada and the United States, reaching No. 5 and No. 8, respectively, thus becoming the band's sole top-40 entry on the latter country's main [[Billboard Hot 100|''Billboard'' Hot 100]] chart. The single was [[Music recording certification|certified]] octuple platinum by the [[British Phonographic Industry]] (BPI) and 12-times platinum by the [[Australian Recording Industry Association]] (ARIA). Its music video, directed by [[Nigel Dick]], won [[Brit Award for British Video of the Year|British Video of the Year]] at the [[1996 Brit Awards]].

"Wonderwall" remains one of the band's most popular songs.

==Production history==
The song was originally titled "Wishing Stone". Gallagher told ''[[NME]]'' in 1996 that "Wonderwall" was written for [[Meg Mathews]], his then-girlfriend and later wife.<ref>{{cite book |title=Britpop!: Cool Britannia and the Spectacular Demise of English rock |last=Harris |first=John |year=2004 |publisher=Da Capo Press |location=Cambridge, Massachusetts |isbn=0-306-81367-X |page=226 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=fXQCAvSLoAoC}}</ref><ref name="Supernova">{{cite book |title=Oasis: supersonic supernova |last=Krugman |first=Michael |year=1997 |publisher=Macmillan Publishers |isbn=0-312-15376-7 |pages=99–102 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=BfjKZJOFCowC}}</ref> However, after Gallagher and Mathews divorced in 2001,<ref>{{cite news |url= https://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/1125485.stm |title=Noel and Meg finally divorce |work=BBC News |date=19 January 2001 |location=London |access-date=18 July 2011}}</ref> he said the song was not about her: "The meaning of that song was taken away from me by the media who jumped on it, and how do you tell your Mrs it's not about her once she's read it is? It's a song about an imaginary friend who's gonna come and save you from yourself."<ref name="BBCE" /> The song's final title was inspired by [[George Harrison]]'s solo album ''[[Wonderwall Music]]''.<ref>Kindon, Frances. [https://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/liam-gallaghers-foul-mouthed-reaction-20743647 "Liam Gallagher's foul-mouthed reaction to Oasis' Wonderwall – and why he still hates it: Oasis rocker Liam Gallagher had nothing nice to say when his brother Noel Gallagher first played him Wonderwall – and he still doesn't now,"] ''Daily Mirror'' (30 Oct 2019).</ref>

The song was recorded at [[Rockfield Studios]] in Wales, during a two-week recording of the ''Morning Glory'' album in May 1995. Morris produced the song in a half-day along with Gallagher, using a technique known as "[[brickwalling]]" to intensify the sound of the song.<ref name=Bennett2010>{{cite book |title=Britpop and the English Music Tradition |last=Bennett |first=Andy |year=2010 |publisher=Ashgate Publishing, Ltd |isbn=978-0-7546-6805-3 |page=148 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=cK-gFIUijQYC}}</ref> [[Liam Gallagher]] served as lead singer on the song after Noel had given him a choice between "Wonderwall" and "[[Don't Look Back in Anger]]", another single from the album, with Noel singing lead vocals on the latter.<ref name="Supernova" /> All of the band's members except bassist [[Paul McGuigan (musician)|Paul "Guigsy" McGuigan]] contributed to the recording, with Noel playing bass instead of McGuigan.

==Live performances==
{{More citations needed section|date=November 2025}}
Noel Gallagher debuted the song on UK television backstage at [[Glastonbury Festival|Glastonbury]], and it was broadcast on [[Channel 4]] on 24 June 1995. The song was not performed by the band during their headline performance the night before. The song went on to be regularly played on the [[(What's the Story) Morning Glory? Tour]] where it was typically played and sung solo by Noel acoustically. On occasions however (including the [[...There and Then|Maine Road]] and [[Knebworth 1996|Knebworth]] gigs) it was played by the full band acoustically with Liam on vocals. The song was also regularly played on both the [[Be Here Now Tour]] and [[Standing on the Shoulder of Giants Tour]], performances on these tours featured the full band on electric guitars with Liam on vocals.

For the [[Heathen Chemistry Tour]], Noel changed the arrangement of his live performances of the song to a style he admitted was heavily influenced by [[Ryan Adams]]' cover. For the [[Don't Believe the Truth Tour]], the original arrangement was used for live performances by the full band with electric guitars and Liam on vocals. During the 2008 tour, the band returned to performing the song in a semi-acoustic form, in an arrangement closely resembling the album version. This song was also performed during the [[2012 Summer Olympics closing ceremony]] by Liam Gallagher and his post Oasis band [[Beady Eye]].

Since Oasis split up, both Noel and Liam have continued to play the song as part of [[Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds]] and Liam's solo career, respectively. Both have often varied the presentation of the song, sometimes being performed in stripped down acoustic versions, whilst other times more full band arrangements have been performed. It was also played on their [[Oasis Live '25 Tour|reunion tour]] in 2025.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Levine |first=Nick |date=2025-08-15 |title=Oasis 2025 reunion tour: setlist, tour dates, support acts and more |url=https://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/oasis-setlist-2025-songs-reunion-tour-dates-tickets-stage-time/ |access-date=2025-09-04 |website=Official Charts |language=en}}</ref>

==Critical reception==
Steve Baltin from ''[[Cashbox (magazine)|Cash Box]]'' named "Wonderwall" Pick of the Week, describing the song as "a perfect example of melodic pop." He added, "Following the more uptempo riff of "[[Morning Glory (Oasis song)|Morning Glory]]", this single will remind listeners of the anthemic single "[[Live Forever (Oasis song)|Live Forever]]", a track that generated massive airplay on multiple formats last year. Look for the same results for this lovely near [[Sentimental ballad|ballad]].

Pan-European magazine ''[[Music & Media]]'' wrote, "A swirling rock song that slowly builds to epic proportions. Nicely chiming acoustic guitars and psyched-up strings support Liam Gallagher's trademark declamatory and plaintive vocals.

Fires have gone out, wills to live have departed, yet we still witness Liam questioning whether ''Maybe you could be the one to save me''. And yet the entirely twisted delivery turns it from a slightly sappy idea into a fantastically bleak song, adding an all-consuming anger to the sense of desperation."<ref>{{cite magazine|first=John|last=Robinson|url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/nothingelseon/53565940480/|title=Albums|magazine=[[New Musical Express|NME]]|date=30 September 1995|page=52|access-date=13 March 2024}}</ref> In a separate review, Robinson felt it "is one of Oasis' best records because it manages to be immensely robust while still being one of Noel's most lyrically personal songs".<ref>{{cite magazine|first=John|last=Robinson|url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/nothingelseon/53582051720/|title=Singles|magazine=[[New Musical Express|NME]]|date=28 October 1995|page=50|access-date=17 March 2024}}</ref> [[Andrew Harrison (journalist)|Andrew Harrison]] from ''[[Select (magazine)|Select]]'' wrote, "'Wonderwall' is a near acoustic song that wears many signs of its maturity, but heavily.

==Cover art==
The sleeve artwork was inspired by the paintings of the Belgian surrealist [[René Magritte]], and was shot on [[Primrose Hill]] in London by Michael Spencer Jones. The hand holding the frame is that of art director [[Brian Cannon]]. The original idea was to have Liam in the frame before Noel vetoed that idea whilst the shoot was taking place.<ref>''Q Special Edition – Oasis: Ten Years Of Rock 'n' Roll Mayhem'' ([[EMAP]] Metro)</ref> Instead, a female figure was deemed necessary, so [[Creation Records]] employee Anita Heryet was asked to stand in as cover star for the shot.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.funtrivia.com/en/Music/Oasis-1617.html |title=Oasis – Fun Facts, Answers, Factoids, Info, Information |publisher=Funtrivia.com |access-date=31 May 2010}}</ref>

British band [[the Mike Flowers Pops]] released an [[easy listening]] version of "Wonderwall" that reached No. 2 on the UK Singles Chart—just as the Oasis original had done two months earlier—during Christmas 1995. On New Year's Day 1996, it earned a silver certification from the [[British Phonographic Industry]] (BPI) for shipments exceeding 200,000 copies. This cover also peaked within the top 10 of the charts in Denmark, Ireland and Sweden.

Noel Gallagher mentioned that when [[BBC Radio 1]] premiered the song, they jokingly claimed that they had found "the original version of Wonderwall". Gallagher, who had been in America at the time, was surprised to be asked by one of his record company's executives if he had actually written the song.<ref>From the promotional documentary for ''[[Stop the Clocks]],'' entitled ''Lock the Box.''</ref>

===Mashups===
"Wonderwall" was featured in the popular [[Mashup (music)|mashup]] "[[Boulevard of Broken Songs]]" mixed by Party Ben in late 2004, which also contained parts of both [[Travis (band)|Travis]]'s "[[Writing to Reach You]]" (which contains the line "Radio is playing all the usual / what's a Wonderwall anyway?") and [[Green Day]]'s "[[Boulevard of Broken Dreams (Green Day song)|Boulevard of Broken Dreams]]". In late 2006, Gallagher accused Green Day of 'ripping off' "Wonderwall", saying "If you listen, you'll find it is exactly the same arrangement as "Wonderwall". They should have the decency to wait until I am dead [before stealing my songs]. I, at least, pay the people I steal from that courtesy".<ref>[http://www.breakingnews.ie/showbiz/gallagher-attacks-green-day-for-ripping-off-wonderwall-289328.html Gallagher attacks Green Day for 'ripping off' 'Wonderwall'], [[Ireland Online]], 14 December 2006.</ref>
