Columbia

“Columbia” is an infectious, groovy head trip to listen to. It is named after a hotel called Columbia, which the band stayed in while they were recording in a studio, where they did a lot of acid. The song was conceived while the band were on a serious acid trip. If taken in large enough doses, the drug produces delusions and visual hallucinations, and the lyrics reflect this. This was the first song that Noel Gallagher wrote with Oasis. It is rhythm guitarist Paul “Bonehead” Arthurs' favourite track, acclaimed by the fans, but not very well recognized by critics, perhaps by being in an album full of great songs.
