Remember Wednesday July 2nd

Remember Wednesday is a weekly segment where I reminisce with a song (or songs) that always brings up a particular memory. I invite you all to do the same. For more details on how to play along, read here!

This week I bring you Champagne Supernova by Oasis. Of course, most people think of Wonderwall when it comes to Oasis, but Champagne Supernova was the first song I ever remember staying up to wait for the music video every night. As Kat pointed out last week, you may remember that MTV used to actually play music videos, at this point, they were down to shows for videos and after a certain time of night, they’d play videos all night.

I had a television in my room (only because my brothers had one too) and I remember lying with my head at the foot of the bed with the tv on mute–on older tv’s, mute just meant really, really low–so it was loud enough for me in a completely silent house. I never had to wait too long before Champagne Supernova would finally come on and I could go to sleep! I just loved all the random imagery and explosion of colors. I still enjoy the song on a regular rotation.

I can’t embed the video, but you can catch it here on youtube!
