no, they aren't a bit like the beatles, they just want to be

VinegarTits · 19/11/2008 14:45

I agree

They are utter shite at it aswell

TheGoat · 19/11/2008 14:46

well yes, hence the word 'bad'

Are they still around then?

YANBU. I really can't stand Oasis either, I like lots of similar music but there's a smug arrogance about Oasis which I can't bear. Not to mention overuse of the word "sheeine" in their songs which makes me cringe.

TheGoat · 19/11/2008 14:47

yes i heard their lastest beatles rip off song on the radio yesterday.

YABVVVU. I love Oasis. I met my husband at Knebworth in 1996.
They remind me of being a student.

UnquietDad · 19/11/2008 14:57

I like a few of their singles but they are over-rated. I agree about "shee-i-eeene" as well!

TheGoat · 19/11/2008 14:58

omg the beatles were so much better and they had more than one song.

korma i think you used to share a house with me.

yes YABU

YANBU - Oasis are whiney Northern scum.

I love Blur!!

VinegarTits · 19/11/2008 15:14

Korma sorry mate i didnt mean to offend you, we all have our own opinions, but i had to laugh the the 'better than the beatles by miles'

Oasis are trying to be like the Beatles, so i guess if Oasis are so great, it is becasue of the Beatles influence in the first place

Stats mean nothing a lot more yoofs go to concerts and are into music these days, and music is better promoted due to advances in tv/radio and of course the internet
