+ NGHFB album at #24...which is only 4 spots behind Adele - 21. More impressively Coldplay is 9 places below at #33 as well. If Noel stays in the top 75 longer than Coldplay that'll be amazing.  It would be. Great week for Noel: Wonderwall played at the Olympics, Wonderwall back in top 30, HFB still in the Top 25, and V Fest this week. That's a ton of money rolling in. |

I think this album just goes to prove that a quality album by a big name can still have a lengthy stay in the charts. The reason why the previous Oasis albums didn't have this longevity is simply because they weren't quality.
After the excitement and release of those later Oasis albums, I got really bored of them and barely listened to them. Ten months on from the release of High Flying Birds and I am still loving every minute of it. Easily my most treasured Oasis/post-Oasis album along with the first two albums and The Masterplan.

DBTT was very quality album. Though that is considered their "comeback" record (critically and commercially). So yeah, I get what you're saying. I'd probably put HFB's past all the post 2000's albums. It has the big singles and the consistent album tracks that I personally look for in a good album. |

- NGHFB:
- UK Sales: 685,900 copies
- Worldwide Sales: 1,100,000 - 1,200,000 copies
I am simply astonished by these figures.

I thought DBTT was great, i'm surprised by how many people don't rate it on here. Really works as an album too. DOYS was a little average tbh. |

Noel never would have gotten to write a full album because he would have had to give half the album to LAG. |

The important tracks of the album are EOTR, RM WAL, TDOYAM and IIAG. They could have been in the album along with some good LAG songs like FLW and the album would have still sold more than HFB. And DBTT is a great album. |

If the next Oasis album consisted of the best songs from HFB and DGSS and, more importantly, had a massive Oasis logo on the front, I could easily see this album selling 2-3x more worldwide. Would easily have outsold DOYS. That would've been the best Oasis album since BHN imo |

DOYS could have been close to this album since a large part of the sng were already written at the time. Just Noel's poor tracklisting choice have made DOYS average. How HFB isn't an Oasis album will stay in huge regret. |

wouldn't make a BIG difference if the HFB were an oasis album. rockbands, apart from u2 or coldplay, just don't sell that many records anymore. you have to be lady gaga or david guetta to sell records

Your logic is a bit flawed there.... ........................................................................................................... And how did this thread become about this? |

I wouldn't have imagined that a great song like the roller was hidden for 10 years when High Horse Lady was on an album. |

Noel has said it himself on multiple occasions that IIHAG and EOTR were written on the DOYS tour. Not first performed, but written. And from the HFB's documentary it appears that WAL was a post Oasis song. Your logic is flawed. You want an album with what would be the 2 best songs of it off it, while leaving off the biggest hit from either of the 2 projects. As far as we know, RM and STC for sure were before Oasis broke-up. While EOTR, IIHAG, and WAL were "basically" post the break-up. |
