Songfacts®:

• This song is about a girl that as time passes, the singer doesn't really care about anymore. Noel Gallagher explained to Select magazine: "The lyrics are just saying, 'Well, it's not about, be the same for us anymore, I suppose.'"
  
  "It was written just towards the end of the Definitely Maybe sessions," he added. If Definitely Maybe was about dreaming about being in a band, this one is actually about being in a band. So it's like,'Hello, it's good to be back' - back making records."
• The street featured on the sleeve artwork is Berwick Street in London, (district) W1. >>>

• Noel Gallagher sings at the end the chorus to Gary Glitter's 1973 hit "Hello (Its Good To Be Back)." (Glitter was an influence on Britpop). He explained: "I started singing, 'Hello, hello, it's good to be back,' and everyone just fell about laughing. As the track progressed, we found we couldn't get rid of it, so we stuck it in."
• "Hello" is the opening track of (What's The Story) Morning Glory?. It begins with a quiet, acoustic guitar intro that is a short excerpt from "Wonderwall." After this brief "Wonderwall" teaser, "Hello" transitions into its own distinct melody and lyrics, beginning with "I don't feel as if I know you. You take up all my time."
• Oasis kicked off their July 4, 2025 show at Cardiff's Principality Stadium with "Hello." It was the first song performed by the band since their V Festival 2009 set, ending a 16-year hiatus.
