[Verse 1]
There's something strange going on tonight
There's something going on that's not quite right
Michael's nervous and the lights are bright
There's something going on that's not quite right
[Verse 2]
There's something going on that wasn't here before
Keep your eyes glued to the floor
There's something strange going on tonight
There's something going on that's not quite right, uh-huh
[Refrain]
Do-do, do-do, do-do, do
Do-do, do-do, do-do, do
[Verse 3]
There's something strange going on tonight
There's something going on that's not quite right
Michael's nervous and the lights are bright
There's something going on that's not quite right
[Verse 4]
There's something going on that wasn't here before
Keep your eyes glued to the floor
No one's gonna save your life
There's something going on that's not quite right, uh-huh
[Verse 5]

From Dork
The 2001 Radio France recording previews ‘Reveal (25th Anniversary Edition)’ and ‘The Black Sessions Revealed’, out 20th November.
Their 1995 appearance came before ‘Morning Glory’; their 2009 headline show came months before the split. Slane holds two distinct chapters of Oasis history.
From brass-powered pop to a galloping Scottish singalong, these tracks take distinct routes towards a brighter few minutes.
John Paul Jones’s string arrangements helped expand the sound of R.E.M.’s 1992 album without displacing the band at its centre.
