OASIS ARE CHART STARS

OASIS have been crowned the most successful act of the last decade in the UK.

Following the success of ’Lyla’, which topped the charts yesterday, the Book of British Hit Singles & Albums have announced the band have beaten the likes of Robbie Williams, Madonna, Britney Spears, Eminem and U2 to the accolade.

The band have 766 weeks on the Official UK singles and albums charts.

The group release their sixth album, ’Don’t Believe The Truth’ on May 30.

I guess you could call them the most succesful. It really all depends on how you classify successful. They certainly didn't sell the most records and didn't draw the most fans. The didn't pack the most stadiums they didn't win the most awards. But, in my oppinion what makes them the greatest is that they stuck to their values. They didn't try to change or toy with their sound or appearence they just fucked expectations of rock stars and did what they pleased. And the only reason that that makes them successful is that no one else did that. It's a damn shame that I had to say that but the truth is that if everyone did that then no one would be special. Back in the early days of rock n' roll the people who changed the face of music were the ones who were successful, but can you say the same about Oasis? The answer is yes. Not by being outstanding musisians or by starting a revolutionary new fad, but rather by being their selfs. They just did what they wanted and they never changed for anyone and that is why they're successful. Because in the 90's "musisians" were all about doing what the fans wanted. Oasis said fuck the fans just spit it out there and don't give a fuck. Success fuck yes

You forgot about the things that he could say like
I dont think that I like you anymore
Well I found new feelings at the feeling store
and I cant find you at our kissing place
and I'm scared of those new pair of eyes you have

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

Bonehead's Barber: spooky! Oct 17, 2024 8:13:01 GMT -5
