The song samples the drums from
Johnny Jenkins' version of
Dr. John's "
I Walk on Guilded Splinters". Noel described the song as "the closest we came to sounding like a modern day
Beatles" in the 'Lock the Box' interview found on the DVD in the special edition of
Stop the Clocks (2006). Due to the departure of guitarist
Bonehead and bassist
Guigsy in the early recording sessions for
Standing on the Shoulder of Giants, the track features only
Liam Gallagher (vocals),
Noel Gallagher (guitar, bass guitar, Mellotron), and
Alan White (drums). Oasis were looking for replacements for founding members Bonehead and Guigsy and while Bonehead was replaced with fellow Creation signing and former
Heavy Stereo frontman
Gem Archer, Guigsy proved harder to replace. Thus the video for "Go Let It Out" had to be filmed with Noel on bass, Alan on drums, Archer in Noel's role as lead guitarist and Liam in Archer's role as rhythm guitarist. The B-side "Let's All Make Believe" was placed by
Q magazine placing at number one on its list of the '500 best lost tracks' and at number four on its list of songs to download for the month of January 2006.
Q magazine said in the description, "If
Standing on the Shoulder of Giants had contained this track, it would have probably got another star." The song featured on the Japanese release of the album. In the "Lock the Box" interview, Noel considers "Go Let It Out" to be "head and shoulders" above any other songs he had written during this time, and "up there with some of the best things I've ever done." ==Music video==
