I've noticed a funny thing

This spring the view count for Wonderwall on youtube has been 9.6 mio or something and slowly crawling up to 10 mio.

After the Glasto row, the view count number has started rising faster, and now is around 13.3 mio views

Coupled with the fact that Wonderwall single sales and WTSMG sales have gone up right after Glasto (13 years after their release), it appears that a lot of people who had heard Wonderwall on the radio once or twice sometime in the 1st century BC but hadn't known what the performing band's name is (as is, for example, the case with the Bittersweet Symphony) suddenly have learnt the names "Noel Gallagher", "Oasis", "Wonderwall" and "Morning Glory".

Do you think that's the case?

By the way, it all appears to be an excellent promotion and public awareness campaign for the upcoming DOYS.

P.S. It's sad that still a lot of people (outside the UK) know only one Oasis song "Wonderwall". I try to educate'em evry once in a while by playing and singing "Live Forever" ;D

Here's what I've been talking bout:

"Jay-Z's controversial set at Glastonbury has had at least one surprising knock on effect.

'Wonderwall', the Oasis song that Jay-Z mockingly appeared onstage to, has experienced a resurgence in sales and is now headed for this week's top 100.

Furthermore, the album it appears on, '(What's The Story) Morning Glory' has experienced a 200 per-cent increase in sales since the Brooklyn rapper's Saturday night headline performance."

To say this is the same as saying "Rolling Stones have had their day in the 60s". Yes, the Stones are not as popular anymore, but they still make excellent music (and there's no reason why they shouldn't) and I personally highly enjoy their 90s and 00s work (and I was initially hooked by their latest LP, not their classic stuff).

Same goes for Oasis - even if DOYS doesn't sell 10 mio copies, they are still immensely popular and continue making great music we're all lookin' forward too and new fans with albums like DBTT and songs like SCYHO or TIOBI

The Stones haven't made a good album since Taylor left.

But anyway, I just noticed the same. Felt like watching the Wonderwall music video and was surprised by the 13 million views. Hopefully this opens Oasis to a wider audience in America, though the bump was only for Wonderwall, the rest of the videos are relatively the same.

Shoutbox

themasterplanet: A Northern Soul by The Verve! My second favourite album by them. I love the atmosphere of it, it’s very dreamy and melancholic and dark. It holds many memories for me and I think that’s partly responsible for why I love it so much. Sept 6, 2024 18:57:34 GMT -5

AllOrNothing: Up in the Sky sounds like the La's on steroids, especially that Liam Falsetto that I can almost picture Lee Mavers singing with all his big teeth showing Sept 12, 2024 7:52:29 GMT -5

ennex: G'day folks, Sept 21, 2024 4:51:22 GMT -5

colincarrot: Hello! I'm new here and looking to download Liam Gallagher bootlegs from here and found this thread here - forum.live4ever.uk.com/thread/86703/liam-gallagher-tour-2017-2018 - with a list of concerts but if I click on any of the links... (1/2) Sept 23, 2024 10:47:13 GMT -5

colincarrot: ...it says I don't have permission to access this thread, maybe it's because I only joined today but I'm not sure what to do, could somebody help or know what to do?

Bring It On Dan: I have so much shit on an old hard drive somewhere but I just cannot find it. Nothing 'out there' but probably 200 gigs or so. I can't remember the name of the site that had all the gigs listed and sources for loads of gigs next to it? I remember RKID 003. Sept 24, 2024 17:34:46 GMT -5

mimmihopps: Bring It On Dan, it must be sadsong.net. I don't know if the site still exists. Sept 25, 2024 7:20:44 GMT -5

gottabecrazy: RKID003 was a great resource, they shared a lot there there really. I wish something similar could be up again. Sept 25, 2024 17:50:23 GMT -5

PollyWantsACracker: Been off the site for over half a decade, good to see it still going strong after all these years. Good to be frickin back again eh. I thought of the place after hearing today from a friend that Oasis is back in business again. Sept 26, 2024 17:07:27 GMT -5

RUBIKON: I'm gonna restart the Oasis MP3 Archive is anyone's intersted in helping? I ran it in 2000 to 2002 and was a great site. Used to use mIRC to get all the boots. I'll build the site, just need links to one drives and files. PM me if you fancy helping out Sept 29, 2024 8:31:27 GMT -5
