Oasis

[DENNIS STEVENS]

i have to be honest, my first thought was that the op was a piss-take & i was quite a few posts into the thread before i realised it was all being taken seriously. my tastes are eclectic, but oasis barely register, although any band that covers slade can't be all bad.

If you took their best songs over the course of their career and put them on one album i reckon you'd have a pretty damn good album.

Then if you took the rest of the boring dreary crappy songs and threw them in the bin you'd have a band who released one amazing album and dissapeared off the face of the earth.

Oasis have been my favourite band for 15 years, i dont think another band will now take over that fact.

Music is all about what you get out of it. Some people like somthing complexed, some people like just sticking the radio on and enjoy whatever it throws at them.

People will ALWAYS have a go at Oasis for never changing, but then so many bands like Blur, Radiohead, Manic Street Preachers, The Verve, Metallica, ect ect get slated for actually changing their sound, so i dont think you can win.

I think when you can generate £66million in 1 day of World ticket sales... they are doing somthing right, and despite a lot of people saying they aint a good live band, then 66 million quid is a lot of down the toilet money.

As a few have already said though, check out The Stone Roses, probably the best band ever to have only 2 albums. Probably one of the worst live bands ive ever seen, but there songs (including b-sides) are just out of this world.

The Verve are another amazing band, lyrically Ashcroft has the ability to bend my head so much. Ive never seen a more passionate musician in just the whole of his work.

Enjoy whatever you listen to ..... i wouldnt dare mention some of the stuff i listen to cause people just slate it, but whatever you like.

I got with some posh german girl in 1997 because she thought i looked like 'that man from Oashish'.

For letting me get my grubby paws on that ex-public school girl, I shall be forever grateful to them.

Did I just see Bon Jovi in the same sentance as Pink Floyd?

Of course my mate. Never mind whether they are liked, this is all about past hits. And they have had a few to be fair. Cheesy but they sell.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

To be fair I did love Bon Jovi when growing up. Had Slippery When Wet on tape and all. Guns n Roses were better though, despite Axl being a bit of a knob.

Probably the vast majority of bands. Because they haven't written songs as good as Oasis when they are on form but neither have they wrote such awful crap as Oasis.
