We all see a bit more bands like Keane and Coldplay, Franz Ferdinand comin' up. All Britpoppy bands. So there's no question "if" Britpop will make a comeback, but "when" the big bang of it's comeback will come.
Which band do you think will be responsble for it ?

sorry to burst your bubble but britpop will never return. not the way it was. the label 'britpop' wasn't just about the music, it was also about the state of the country in the 90's, politics, the culture, the beliefs. the impact british bands had on the rest of the world was phenomenal, for once brits wanted to be brits, we were proud of what we were, eating your breakfast in a local cafe, not in a coffee shop. going to the pub with your mates and getting hammered, not going to a wine bar with your missus and having a coke. thats the way life was for a lot of us and it is sadly missed by a lot of us.
sorry to drop the news on ya, i could write this shit for hours as i grew up in this environment.

I dont even think Oasis are proud to be British anymore
Theyve lost the scruffy image they used to have. The hair, clothes and songs no longer show the working class way of life, peopl no longer relate to them like they did during the years when everyone thought they could be Oasis. Now they've gone all Rock n Roll star on us, they seem above us there musics become more advanced there clothing more obtainable and their hair more fashionable. But i still love oasis!
Eeeeeee i should write for the NME actually maybe the Sun!

Well okay, whole this culture thing will never really return the way it did in the mid 90's, but what I was talking 'about, was actually the return of the music.
Here in Holland that kind music starts to get hot again,
and I was wondering if this was the same outside of here, so ...

We've all agreed it won't come back again, but to answer the original question, I don't think Coldplay will bring it back.
'90s a great decade! *nostalgic*

i agree, no way its gona b like it was...
id like to keep an eye on "muse" but... as long as they dont produce too many of "weird emotion, or depressed" kinda music, they be top
more "plug in baby" is needed
n
more "time is running out" kinda songs

I must agree with previous statements saying brit-pop will never return, and that it was more than just a musical movement.
What Britain has lacked since the feel-good vibe of the 90's is some sort of identity. If we just look at music, The Libertines, and The Others still think that it's 1978 and Franz Ferdinand and The Futureheads are stuck in the 1980's. There isn't any new type of British music conveying what it's like to be British NOW.
But maybe that's because Britain has lost a sense of identity, with the urban working classes galvanised by American Hip-Hop.
Just think that the Gallaghers were looking to The Sex Pistols and The Jam in their childhoods. Not wanting to start any sort of Anglo-American feud, but does the music of 50 cent or Eminem really have any relevance to the British youth? Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems to me that Britain is constantly looking to the past or across the Atlantic for identity, rather than within our shores today.

Why does the british music industry insist on ramming bands like Nickelback, blink 1 8 FUCKIN 2, etc.... down our necks???
And why Oh why everytime I go out to the pub some dickhead stick this (so-called) RnB on? Its not RnB. RnB is Rhythm and Blues and theres fuck all blues in any of these songs.
Come on Britain wheres all the rock n roll bands? Rock n Roll was born in Britain. LETS AVE IT!!!!
