This is possibly THE greatest song and video combo of all time, shame about the quality:

Stone Roses (who aren't shit btw) song Fools Gold:
The bass line, despite being the same all the way through the song, isn't sampled; he played it constantly for the whole song.
 
I will survive by Gloria Gaynor was written by a man. Freddie Perren was sacked by Tamla Motown. He wrote this in reply to them.
 
This 1983 song is a veiled warning about the apocalypse to come that is the bad, cat AIDS:

Spent 4 consecutive weeks at No 2 in the UK singles chart without ever getting to No 1. It was kept off the top spot by John Lennon's "Woman" for a week, and then by Joe Dolce's novelty hit, "Shaddap Your Face", for a further 3 weeks, although it sold more copies than either of these records and was ranked the 5th best selling UK single for 1981.

Oasis - Shakermaker.

Noel originally took the idea from I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing (in Perfect Harmony).

After telling the producer they had a second verse for a song he had just wrote (of course he was lying). Liam kept pestering Noel saying nothing had been written and they were on the way to the studio at the time in the back of a cab.

But Noel said don't worry i'll sort it, he wrote the second verse based on everything that he saw and what happened on the way in the taxi.

Mr Sifter sold me songs/When I was just 16/Now he stops at traffic lights/But only when they're green.

Oasis - Columbia.

Some people ask why is it called Columbia?

They wrote the song in 20 minutes, they didn't have a name for the song.

Noel said 'what hotel we in again?'

'Columbia'

Noel 'we'll call it Columbia'
 
The original chorus to the Undertones Teenage Kicks was
"I Want To Hold It, Want To Hold It Tight"...
Which was a reference to spanking the monkey.

I played the drums on the Phil Collins track 'In The Air Tonight', but the **** died before I got paid.

The gorilla who played the drums on 'In the air tonight' for the Cadbury's advert was the one that killed Phil Collins and ripped his body to pieces.

I got him to do it because Collins wouldn't pay up. Tight ****.
