Oasis fans are on a mission to cement the band's legendary 1996 hit 'Don't Look Back in Anger' as England's unofficial national anthem. The campaign has gained momentum following the song's emotional resonance during the Manchester Arena attack in 2017, where it became a symbol of unity and resilience.
The Power of Music in Dark Times
After the tragic bombing at Ariana Grande's concert, crowds spontaneously sang the Oasis classic during vigils, turning it into an anthem of hope. Now, supporters argue the track deserves official recognition for its cultural significance and ability to bring people together.
A Petition With Purpose
A Change.org petition has been launched, urging authorities to adopt the song. "It's more than just a tune—it's part of our identity," one fan stated. The track, written by Noel Gallagher, remains one of Oasis's most beloved works, often sung at football matches and national events.
Could This Actually Happen?
While England doesn't currently have an official national song (unlike Scotland and Wales), the campaign faces an uphill battle. However, with over 30,000 signatures already, the movement is proving that music can still unite a divided nation.
