Oasis Release Official Live Version of 'Bring It On Down' From Edinburgh Days Before North American Reunion Dates [View all]

As Oasis gear up to bring their triumphant reunion tour to North America next week, on Thursday (Aug. 21) the group issued the latest live track from their kick-off run of shows in the U.K. and Ireland. As with the other performance versions to date, the take on the Definitely Maybe song “Bring It On Down” has a crackling energy, as well as a massive crowd clap-along through the middle section.

“You’re the outcast, you’re the underclass/ But you don’t care, because you’re living fast/ You’re the uninvited guest who stays ’till the end/ I know you’ve got a problem that the devil sends,” singer Liam Gallagher sneers in a near-punk snarl as guitarist/songwriter Noel Gallagher shreds behind him on the track.


From Murrayfield Stadium, August 9 - and the single includes the final bit (the "We're still waiting for our apology" line) of Liam's rant against the Edinburgh City Council for insulting Oasis fans.

It also - https://uk.news.yahoo.com/oasis-release-single-live-edinburgh-103909430.html - has a lyric change for the Edinburgh concerts at 2:38 to mention Buckfast tonic wine (with caffeine), which is famous: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckfast_Tonic_Wine

Love this... The live album and documentary I'm sure we'll see after this tour will be amazing.
