How HARD Are Oasis Songs to Play on Guitar? (Ranked by Difficulty)
Things we can learn from the video
Press to jump
- 0:18"Live Forever" moves from Grade 1 open-chord strumming to a Grade 3 or 4 solo.
- 1:47"Columbia" offers open chords, barre chords and lead lines at progressively higher difficulty levels.
- 2:26"Don't Look Back in Anger" introduces F-to-Fm changes and E7/G#, with its solo reaching Grade 4.
- 3:40Andy places most of "Supersonic", including its riffs and solo, around Grade 3.
- 4:23"Some Might Say" combines alternative chord fingerings with a major pentatonic solo at Grade 3.
- 6:20The main riff and lead fills make "Cigarettes & Alcohol" another Grade 3 example.
Knowing the chords to "Live Forever" and playing its solo are rather different assignments. Andy Guitar makes that distinction the centre of "How HARD Are Oasis Songs to Play on Guitar? (Ranked by Difficulty)", the most watched new release in a nine-upload week.
With a cream semi-hollow electric guitar, Andy demonstrates how the same song can accommodate a beginner strumming open chords and a more experienced player chasing the recording's details. He places the basic "Live Forever" strumming at Grade 1, then moves up through picking nuances to a solo reaching Grade 3 or 4. "Don't Look Back in Anger" adds awkward chord changes before its own Grade 4 solo.
"There are always details in songs that can be a lot higher than the level that they're often quoted at," he says. The comments pick up that practical thread: viewers ask about amp settings, pedals and getting the tone right. Others are working through whole setlists, or requesting the lead lines from "Listen Up".
The Oasis lesson also carries the channel's strongest daily viewing momentum. Behind it, a new beginner-jazz lesson builds from Dm7, G7 and Cmaj7 into swing rhythm and chord-tone soloing, while the "Satisfaction" riff offers a starting point playable with one finger.
Elsewhere, Andy turns a G chord into a Cat Stevens embellishment and tackles "Harvest Moon" with Drop D tuning, natural harmonics and syncopated strumming. The shared idea is pleasingly concrete: a few familiar shapes can contain plenty more to learn.
The channel collected roughly 880,000 views over the week, with subscribers unchanged. Daily viewing is substantially above its usual level. Among nearby instrument channels, Rob Scallon had a particularly large viewing week; Andy's own busiest new lesson keeps its attention on the gap between knowing an Oasis song and playing all its details.

Perfect timing on this video. I’m currently working on playing the entire setlist from the 25 tour.
@michaelschmidt6548See it on YouTubeThat's really helpful, just getting back into guitar. I can play some of these songs, but I can never get the tone right though. Any tips?
@richardbond4501See it on YouTubeCould you do a tutorial on listen up by oasis? Specifically the lead lines. All I’ve been able to find is one TikTok with the tab for the intro so a full tutorial would be great since there aren’t really any on YouTube
