Oasis's Official Top 40 most-streamed songs ever in the UK
Oasis fans, it's time to stop crying your hearts out. Finally deciding he doesn't look back in anger after 15 years of putting his foot down, and many a public plea from Liam Gallagher, Noel Gallagher's decided to let there be love.
Yep - 'the stars have aligned' as the Manchester Britpop legends let bygones be bygones, announcing reunion tour dates across the UK and Ireland in Summer 2025.
OASIS LIVE '25 will see the group play a series of show at London's Wembley Stadium, Manchester's Heaton Park, Cardiff's Principality Stadium, Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium and Dublin's Croke Park; Noel and Liam's first shows together since their less-than-amicable disbandment in 2009.
So, to celebrate, we thought we'd delve back through the boys' back catalogue - from debut Supersonic to their final official single Falling Down - to reveal their Official Top 40 most-streamed songs ever in the UK.

But, before we unveil the full list for the first time, let's take a closer look at the Top 5.
5. Half The World Away
Released: 1994
Official Chart peak: 56
UK streams: 119,100,000
No doubt bolstered by its use as the theme to BBC sitcom The Royle Family, Half The World Away comes in at Number 5 on the list with over 119.1 million combined UK streams.
The Noel-led Half The World Away originally featured as the b-side to Oasis's 1994 single Whatever, going on to be included on their 1998 The Masterplan LP; a compilation of the band's most-loved b-sides.
Half The World Away finally reached the Official Singles Chart Top 100 in 2015, peaking at Number 56.
4. Live Forever
Released: 1994
Official Chart peak: 10
UK streams: 162,000,000
Written by Noel in 1991, before Oasis's official formation, Live Forever was the third single lifted from the band's 1994 debut album Definitely Maybe.
The track became the band's first-ever Official Top 10 single, debuting (and peaking) at Number 10, where it remained for two weeks consecutively. It's since been streamed in excess of 162 million times in the UK, landing at Number 4 on this list.

3. Champagne Supernova
Released: 1995
Official Chart peak: n/a
UK streams: 167,200,000
The closing track on Oasis's second studio album (What's The Story) Morning Glory?, Champagne Supernova was not officially released as a single in the UK. Still, the fan favourite remains one of the group's most enduring songs in the streaming era. It lands at Number 3 on the list, with over 167.2 million combined UK streams to its name.
2. Don't Look Back In Anger
Released: 1996
Official Chart peak: 1
UK streams: 295,500,000
Arguably the unofficial anthem of Manchester, the Noel-fronted Don't Look Back In Anger was the fifth single lifted from the band's 1995 LP What's The Story (Morning Glory?).
Scoring Oasis a second Number 1 single in 1996, following 1995 chart-topper Some Might Say, Don't Look Back In Anger boasts 295.5 million UK streams to date.
The song was adopted by the people of Manchester in remembrance of the 22 people tragically killed in the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing following an Ariana Grande concert; with a tribute famously performed by students of Manchester's Chetham's School of Music.
Don't Look Back In Anger returned to the Official Singles Chart Top 40 for the first time in a decade in June 2017, when Coldplay's Chris Martin and Jonny Buckland performed the song at Ariana Grande's One Love Manchester concert in honour of the victims of the terror attack.
1. Wonderwall
Released: 1995
Official Chart peak: 2
UK streams: 397,100,000
Not only Oasis's Official most-streamed track, with 397.1 million UK streams and counting, 1995 classic Wonderwall is also the UK's Official best-selling singles of all time.
In fact, Wonderwall was the country's overall biggest song never to have reached Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart until earlier this year, when The Killers' Mr. Brightside surpassed it to clinch the feat. Wonderwall still proudly sits at Number 2 on that list.

So, three notable things from this list:
1. Apart from Don't Look Back in Anger and Some Might Say, none of Oasis's number-one singles are even in the top 20
2. The only 21st-century songs in the top 20 are Songbird and Little by Little
3. Album tracks like She's Electric, Married with Children and, of course, Champagne Supernova all trump chart toppers like The Hindu Times, The Importance of Being Idle and Lyla
