"She's Electric" is a song by English rock band Oasis, from their 1995 album (What's the Story) Morning Glory?

Background[edit]

"She's Electric" was taken from Oasis' 1995 album (What's the Story) Morning Glory?[2] It was intended to be released on the band's debut album Definitely Maybe, but was replaced by the song "Digsy's Dinner" which they believed was a better live song. The song is notable for its storytelling lyrics and singer Liam Gallagher's vocal performance which includes falsetto.[1] The song has drawn comparison with the Beatles' songs "With a Little Help from My Friends" and "When I'm Sixty-Four", both from the 1967 album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.[3]
