Linking songs to what you have experienced in life, I lived with two friends in a flat about 10 years or so ago. We were best friends and there was one that we had the same music taste. After a big party night, in the morning when you�re all waking up with a sore head, he’d always be playing Eric Burdon, San Fransico nights and Sky pilot. It�ll immediately throw me back to those times when I will hear Sky pilot. It was a heavy night before and it�s so great that songs can put you in an atmosphere immediately depending on what you�ve experienced.
Definitely Maybe we also heard that really intensively as well in that flat. Slide Away was taking the bottle of red wine on the table, you�d slide away with it. You�d get the feeling you can conquer the world, arms up �we�re the kings of the world�. I’d love to think that when people listen to our debut album, some guys when they turn it on – �Merrymen� for example – get some party atmosphere and connect something to these songs, that�s what it�s all about.
Sometimes when you hear songs more and more you think, “Oh that was coming from that direction”, but these melodies come out and it�s not always the case that you know the connection straight away even when you sense roughly where it is coming from. Sometimes it�s just there, probably after you can say “ok”. I think all the melodies are in the big pot inside, the brain does something magical and throws something out and sometimes you immediately know, sometimes you never know but think �great song I don�t know where its coming from but great�. Definitely Maybe holds up some mirrors to the influences of Oasis but always you know “great song”
I’ve said debut albums should be a bit rough, have that rough sound, have the edges. When the band has success and the second or third album is a banger and it is more settled, it�s more clean. I feel that�s what it is with Definitely Maybe to the huge success of What’s the Story Morning Glory, they�d got into their groove. But for me this is the better album. I prefer that roughness and those edges.
