Wonderwall is a 1995 song by English rock band Oasis, released as a single from their second album, (What's the Story) Morning Glory?, and written by Noel Gallagher. Its acoustic guitar opening became one of the most recognisable intros in British rock, and the song went on to become a lasting singalong favourite at concerts, parties and karaoke nights. Online, the short opening has been clipped and reused in memes, edits and short videos, where a few strums are enough to signal nostalgia or a tongue-in-cheek romantic moment. That instant recognition is why it keeps circulating decades later.

The opening guitar strum from Oasis's Wonderwall, a short clip used in memes and edits to set a nostalgic, singalong mood before a punchline lands.
This is the instantly recognisable opening of Wonderwall, just a few seconds of clean, gently strummed acoustic guitar with a soft, ringing tone and a steady, swaying rhythm. It does not include vocals, so the melody alone carries the whole mood, feeling warm, wistful and a little cheeky at the same time. Viewers tend to smile before anything else happens because they already know the song and start anticipating the famous chorus in their heads. That familiarity makes it perfect for a pause, a reveal or a quiet joke, turning a simple moment into something nostalgic without needing any words at all.
