Rock en español es la música rock compuesta e interpretada en castellano. A diferencia del rock en inglés, el rock en español ha logrado tener éxito mundial en pocas ocasiones, y muchas veces ni siquiera entre países de habla hispana. Por eso el rock en castellano se ha desarrollado de manera heterogénea en las distintas naciones hispanohablantes; quedando así la música de muchas bandas para uso casi exclusivamente nacional hasta la llegada de la globalización de contenidos multimedia acentuada por la generalización de internet y desarrollada especialmente en el siglo XXI.
Oasis fue una banda británica de rock formada en Mánchester en 1991. Inicialmente conocida como The Rain, la banda estaba formada por el cantante Liam Gallagher, el guitarrista Paul Arthurs, el bajista Paul McGuigan y el baterista Tony McCarroll, a los que más tarde se uniría como compositor y guitarrista principal el hermano mayor de Liam, Noel Gallagher.
Musicalmente sus principales influencias fueron, según ellos mismos, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Stone Roses y The Who. También han nombrado, entre otros, a The Stooges, The Kinks, The Smiths y Neil Young.
When I was young, I thought I had my own key
I knew exactly what I wanted to be
Now I'm sure
You've boarded up every door
Lived in a bubble, days were never ending
Was not concerned about what life was sending
Fantasy was real
Now I know much about the way I feel
I'll paint you the picture
'Cause I don't think you live round here no more
I've never even seen the key to the door
We only get what we will settle for
While we're living
The dreams we have as children fade away
While we're living
The dreams we have as children fade away
While we're living
The dreams we have as children fade away
While we're living
The dreams we have as children fade away, away, away
They fade away, away, away
Now my life has turned another corner
I think it's only best that I should warn you
Dream it while you can
Maybe someday I'll make you understand
I'll paint you the picture
'Cause I don't think you live round here no more
I've never even seen the key to the door
We only get what we will settle for
While we're living
The dreams we have as children fade away
While we're living
The dreams we have as children fade away
While we're living
The dreams we have as children fade away
While we're living
The dreams we have as children fade away, away, away
They fade away, away, away
They fade away, away, away
They fade away, away, away
