The Oasis bro's latest solo tune is a piano-driven dance rocker that sounds a little like Coldplay, who now wear the Brit-pop crown that Oasis first forged. But there's more ecstasy than melodrama here, which bodes well for his LP. Here's hoping for a Chemical Brothers remix.

Listen to "AKA...What A Life":

“Karma Chameleon”

Boy George has said this song was about standing by what you believe in. However, at the time, he was involved in a secret affair with Culture Club drummer Jon Moss. "Now people can understand the songs better," he said. "They were written about my relationship with Jon, and they were also written about being a gay man in a homophobic world." The lines "If I listen to your lies, would you say/I'm a man without conviction/I'm a man who doesn't know how to sell a contradiction," described his life at the time, he said. "I was selling this big lie."
