* BaseBreaker: More of ''Base Breakers'', Either you will love the Gallagher brothers and suspend your disbelief that their both {{JerkAss}}es or you will absolutely loathe them both for constantly letting their problems ruin the band's music and by an extent, the band's end.

* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff - "Don't Go Away" is a well-liked album track in the UK, but one of the band's biggest pop and rock radio hits in the United States. It's the reason they played it on ''SaturdayNightLive'' in 1997 as opposed to their current single at the time, "Stand by Me".
