    So, 17 Oasis songs are 'hidden' over the across clues: 1A, 5A, 11A, 14A x2, 15A + 16A, 25A, 29A, 33A + 36A, 40A, 41A, 50A, 52A, 54A, 61A, 62A, 63A.
    I think this is a pretty standard meta idea, but for my first attempt, I had a lot of fun. Also, first full 15x15 so, nice. Thanks you for playing.

      Wow- very clever. I'm glad I recognized Definitely Maybe as an album title, because I probably wouldn't have gotten it otherwise! CHAMPAGNE SUPERNOVA popped out at me once I had Oasis on the brain, though.
