Songfacts®:

  • In a 2000 interview with Uncut magazine, Noel Gallagher explained: "It's just about the inane people you tend to meet when you're out, who talk to you like they've known you for 15 years, whereas they've known you for 10 minutes, they've just heard a couple of your records on the radio. It's like, 'F--k off!'"
  • Liam Gallagher gave "Roll It Over" its live debut during his hometown show at Manchester's Etihad Stadium on June 1, 2022. Neither Oasis or any of the Gallagher brothers' subsequent solo projects has ever performed it live before. "This is for all the old school Oasis fans," Liam said before performing the tune. "You should remember it."
  • This is not to be confused with Oasis' classic (What's the Story) Morning Glory? track, "Roll With It."
