Definitely Morning Glory is the perennial curated playlist[1][2] for the greatest and most popular tracks of Oasis career from their conception and first album Definitely Maybe in 1994 and carrying on to their second album, (What's the Story) Morning Glory? in 1995. It includes five tracks from Definitely Maybe, the single "Whatever", five songs from Morning Glory and the b-side "Acquiesce" turned lead single from the compilation The Masterplan. Appropriately titled, this compilation offers an album-like experience to Noel Gallagher's best songs. The playlist currently has thirty followers on Spotify.

This is one of Exaltist Ethan's favorite short-form[3] playlists. The Martin Page Masterpiece is another example of Exaltist Ethan's playlist curation compiling skills.
