Climbing on the shoulders of giants

With Oasis touring I re-mixed a song from June 2023 which refers to their album ( or at least I thought it did ) I got it wrong - the quote is Standing on the Shoulder of Giants - the fourth studio album by Oasis. The title was actually a misquote by Noel Gallagher after seeing the quote on the British two pound coin while in a pub.
The British two pound coin bears the inscription STANDING ON THE SHOULDERS OF GIANTS on its edge; this is intended as a quotation of Isaac Newton.
By using the work that precedes you it means that you can see further than those who have gone before . Maybe ..
