22. THE SHOCK OF THE LIGHTNING/I'M OUTTA TIME
(2008, Dig Out Your Soul)

The first single from Oasis's final album before breaking up in 2009, The Shock Of The Lightning was a return to form. A loud, fast, and aggressive rock tune that Noel wrote in less than an hour during the recording sessions. Definitely one of the band's most underrated songs. That is tied with another track from the album, I'm Outta Time. Liam has always been an open admirer and huge fan of John Lennon. Not only did he write this song in the vein of In My Life, as well as emulate the late Beatle's vocal style, but he also includes a sound bite from Lennon's final interview before his untimely death near the end of the song.
