The original version of ‘Some Might Say’, released in April 1995, appeared on Oasis’ multi-million selling second album ‘(What’s The Story) Morning Glory?’, and was the band’s first UK Official Number One Single.

The shows were recently immortalised on the big screen in critically acclaimed documentary ‘Oasis Knebworth 1996’. Directed by Grammy Award-nominee Jake Scott, the cinematic documentary celebrates the story of the special relationship between Oasis and their fans that made the largest concert of the ‘90’s possible. Driven by huge excitement and anticipation from fans who were at the era-defining 1996 shows – and a new generation who wish they had been – the cinematic documentary opened at Number One on its first night of release, also becoming the UK’s highest-grossing event cinema release of 2021.
Oasis’ two record breaking nights at Knebworth took place on the 10th & 11th August 1996, with over a quarter of a million young music fans from all over the world converging on Knebworth Park, Hertfordshire. Featuring a setlist packed with stone cold classics, these concerts were both the pinnacle of the band’s success and the landmark gathering for a generation.
