I may be drunk and feeling nostalgic here. But AIBU to think in 1994 he was beautiful?!

No. Britpop was the soulless, uglier younger sibling of Creation's much better days. I compare Oasis to Ride and My Bloody Valentine and weep into my floppy fringe.

Mind you, in the Machester days I thought Shaun Ryder was cute, and wanted to name my children after him Blush

*Madchester...

Devlesko · 26/06/2020 22:04

overrated twats tbh.

Moomin8 · 26/06/2020 22:04

He's never been beautiful on the inside, that's for sure. And I do think the inside of someone actually makes them less beautiful if it's ugly.

Cheated on all his significant others. Including the mother of his children, Nicole Appleton (with their nanny?) In Lily Allen's book she says he shagged her on a plane and then phoned her, expecting her to tell Nicole that they didn't.

Yuk 😖 Damon was lovely 😍 out of the 3 Noel has aged the best 😅

The drugs were good.

tinytemper66 · 26/06/2020 22:08

Urgh! Hell no!

Timeforanotherusername · 26/06/2020 22:10

I did see Stone Roses as an adult 😍 many years later.

Great gig

CoolCarrie · 26/06/2020 22:10

YADBU , he always looks like he needs a wash.

MaggieFS · 26/06/2020 22:10

Haha - I've just found their '94 set on the red as button. I wasn't a huge fan at the time - I think because by the time I became aware of them, they were a lot grubbier and hairier. Also the girls at school who were mad fans were also pretty unpleasant.

So funny seeing all the clothes from 1994!

Bloody love the music when it comes on the radio now though.

eaglejulesk · 26/06/2020 22:11

YANBU

FrankiesKnuckle · 26/06/2020 22:12

Yes!

Not so much now, he's pretty much a parody of himself.

Loved oasis, love Noels stuff now.

HesterShaw1 · 26/06/2020 22:13

I think he's better looking now to be honest!

expatinspain · 26/06/2020 22:14

lotusbell He’s not too bad when you look at similar age stars from that time.

I stood behind him in the local dry cleaners a few years ago. He was surprisingly attractive and very charming. He picked up a snazzy pair of striped trousers

okiedokieme · 26/06/2020 22:16

Yep. I was 3 from the front. Spotted my younger self on tv!

enjoyingscience · 26/06/2020 22:18

Never my cup of tea. I had a poster of Alex James from blur. It’s a bit of a toss up which one ended up being the bigger arsehole really.

I remember selling my festival wristband at Leeds a few years after this, as oasis were headlining and a load of obnoxious Mancs in bucket hats turned up without tickets. Got £30 for it, which was a pretty tidy deal for 17 year old me 😂

Cattermole · 26/06/2020 22:18

Oh Jesus no. I was a goth (...what's with the was??) during Madchester and I used to go into Affleck's Arcade to buy all the vintage black lace and roll my eyes at the increasingly preposterous baggy trousers.
Rosetta Stone and Libitina, I'd have done both their lead singers.

emmylousings · 26/06/2020 22:24

Emphatically, no. He's far too arrogant. And even apart from that, looks wise, I would have gone for Damon Alburn. Had I had the choice, obvs.

wildthingsinthenight · 26/06/2020 22:26

Totally agree OP

Liddell · 26/06/2020 22:29

No, his unpleasant personality made him unattractive to me.

roundtable · 26/06/2020 22:29

Ugh no!

MrsTerryPratchett · 26/06/2020 22:30

@underthelights

Hell no. He was and still is a knob. Damon Albarn and Ritchie from the Manics were way easier on the eye and less annoying.
And whatshisface from the Stereophonics.
TruffleShuffles · 26/06/2020 22:30

I’ve just watched their 94 Glastonbury set and I have to say he was pretty beautiful back then, I never ever thought it at the time though. As a pp mentioned, Alex James was the beautiful one of the Brit pop era at the time for me. I quite like that he now has a farm and makes cheese.
