Reading and Leeds 2025: Watch Bring Me The Horizon cover Oasis’ ‘Wonderwall’ during headline set
During their headline set at Reading Festival, Bring Me The Horizon aired their cover of Oasis’ classic track ‘Wonderwall’.
Last year, the Sheffield rockers unveiled the unique cover as part of their Spotify Singles collection, and it has since found a home in their setlist during this summer’s festival season.
Upon release, Bring Me The Horizon’s version of ‘Wonderwall’ found an unlikely fan in Liam Gallagher, who took to X to say, “I fucking LOVE it”. Additionally, in response to another fan who predicted Liam would hate the cover, the Oasis frontman replied, “I’m not it’s absolutely incredible made my day I’m of out on my skateboard fuck y’all.”
In reaction to Liam’s praise, Bring Me The Horizon frontman Oli Sykes told NME: “We always usually cover stuff that no one has ever heard of, so we were like ‘Now let’s try to reimagine something that everyone knows. Make it easy for ourselves’. It came out alright I think! It was crazy that Liam didn’t slag it off to the high heavens.”
Elsewhere in their headline set, Bring Me The Horizon’s set heavily skewed to material from their Post Human series of albums, which began in 2020 with Post Human: Survival Horror. They did also play older cuts such as ‘Mantra’, ‘Throne’, ‘Drown’, and ‘Can You Feel My Heart’.
Following the conclusion of European festival season, Bring Me The Horizon are set to head to North America for a headline arena tour, which includes a huge show at the Inuit Dome in Los Angeles on October 2nd.
Reading Festival is set to continue today with a headline performance from Travis Scott to close the festival, who ended his Leeds Festival set after just 55 minutes on Friday.
