The single "Stop Crying Your Heart Out" was released in 2002. It features a more soulful, orchestral sound than many of their previous efforts.

• The song was recorded during the sessions for the 2002 album Heathen Chemistry. It reached number 2 on the UK Singles Chart. The music video was filmed in New York City.
• This song represented a sonic departure for the band, incorporating strings and a more reflective tone. It arrived during a period of personnel changes for Oasis, with guitarist John Squire having departed and guitarist Gem Archer and bassist Andy Bell now in place.
• Despite the change in sound, the single was a commercial success, peaking at number 2 on the UK charts and becoming a staple of their later live shows.

Oasis were a British rock band formed in Manchester in 1991. They became one of the most commercially successful acts of the Britpop era and beyond.
