High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Be Here Now is the third studio album by English rock band Oasis, released in August 1997. The album was highly anticipated by both music critics and fans after the band`s worldwide success with their 1994 debut Definitely Maybe and its 1995 follow-up (What`s the Story) Morning Glory?. Be Here Now`s pre-release build up led to considerable hype within both the music and mainstream press. At that point, Oasis were at the height of their fame, and Be Here Now became the United Kingdom`s fastest selling album to date, selling over 420,000 units on the first day of release, and over one million within two weeks. As of 2008, the album has sold eight million copies worldwide.
