Oasis opened their 2000 campaign with "Go Let It Out", the first single from Standing on the Shoulder of Giants, and it arrived with the band's lineup in pieces. Bonehead and Guigsy had walked out early in the sessions, so the track is essentially a three-man job: Liam Gallagher singing, Noel Gallagher on guitar, bass and Mellotron, and Alan White on drums.
Noel wrote it, and the band co-produced it with Mark "Spike" Stent on a borrowed backbone: the drums are sampled from Johnny Jenkins' take on Dr. John's "I Walk on Guilded Splinters". The result struts with a woozy, psychedelic swagger, and Noel later reckoned it was as close as Oasis ever got to sounding like a modern-day Beatles. At home it went to number one, and it topped the charts in Ireland, Italy, Spain and Canada too.
