Who Feels Love
"Who Feels Love?" is a song by English rock band Oasis, written by the band's lead guitarist Noel Gallagher. It served as the second single from their fourth studio album, ''Standing on the Shoulder of Giants'' (2000). The song peaked at number four on the UK Singles Chart (their first not to reach the top three since 1994's " Cigarettes & Alcohol", not counting unofficial release " Wibbling Rivalry") and entered the top 20 in Ireland, Italy, and Spain. Reception ''Standing on the Shoulder of Giants'' was noted for its psychedelic feel, and "Who Feels Love?" was held up as the most extreme example of this. Mark Stent was praised for his production on the song, creating a "trippy" feel like that found on Beatles songs such as "Rain". However, despite the acclaimed production, the song itself was not well received by the critics, with ''NME'' stating that the production "triumphs over any real sort of feeling... pure mock Maharishi spirituality that not even Liam can salvage fro ...

A-side And B-side
The A-side and B-side are the two sides of vinyl records and cassettes, and the terms have often been printed on the labels of two-sided music recordings. The A-side of a single usually features a recording that its artist, producer, or record company intends to be the initial focus of promotional efforts and radio airplay, with the aim of it becoming a hit record. The B-side (or "flip-side") is a secondary recording that typically receives less attention, although some B-sides have been as successful as, or more so than, their A-sides. Use of this language has largely declined in the 21st century as the music industry has transitioned away from analog recordings towards digital formats without physical sides, such as downloads and streaming. Nevertheless, some artists and labels continue to employ the terms ''A-side'' and ''B-side'' metaphorically to describe the type of content a particular release features, with ''B-side'' sometimes representing a "bonus" track or ...
