If you're ever playing it randomly, play Let's All Make Believe right after it. Those two songs flow very well with each other. That’s how I have them on my SOTSOG playlist. Full On is track 4 instead of PYMWYMI, then LAMB is track 5 and that goes wonderfully into Gas Panic! It’s a great listen Sometimes if I'm feeling a little ambitious, I'll move I Can See a Liar before Full On, just because it seems like a statement song to break the seeming facade of happiness in the first few songs. Also, it kicks in that part too, whereas being toward the end kills the vibe.

I did this artwork for the 97 Bsides Sessions we are getting lately. Better than the official artwork of the single, it always annoyed me that it was the first single to include the title of the track on the cover 😂

Yet another chart record has been set…..as of today, Time Flies has charted for 500 weeks on the UK Album Chart, making Oasis the first act to have multiple albums reach this milestone. That's great news.

I think you could be right there. There was nothing wrong with the concept, and it will have certainly took some effort/planning to pull off the shot. It just didn't feel right compared to the previous 10-11 singles as they had such striking artwork to stand on their own without mentioning the track title. Almost like it didn't matter what the song was called; it's Oasis so you know the quality will be top notch.

Brian and Mike's work with both the Verve and Oasis are synonymous with their timelessness.

It's 29 years ago today since Oasis released their Supersonic single. According to Stop Crying Your Heart Out it's only 27 years. I think they got that a bit wrong.

It’s interesting how the streaming age is impacting songs being certified for “chart” success. Married With Children and Columbia both now Silver status which is wild. With Spotify and Apple Music the meter is always running. Eventually some artists entire careers will be Silver, Gold or Platinum. I can see them revising these types of decades old songs passing milestone marks as “digital only”.

It surely will only be 5 years or so until the whole of DM and WTSMG are all certified at least silver as singles. Including two untitled 40-second instrumentals 🤣.

It's good to see Columbia doing well in the streaming world as it's my favourite Oasis song.

Timespan between the release dates of Definitely Maybe and Dig Out Your Soul is 14 years.
Timespan between the band splitting and today is 14 years.
Let that sink in.

Not too bad though, three live albums, three documentaries, the books, eight studio albums and the singles/b-sides (between BE, Liam, HFB), four EPs, the best of, the remix EPs, and the rest of the HFB stuff, and all the bootlegs.

Can't remember if I've posted this here or not before but I've started up my own Liam tribute, we've got a few gigs under our belts now and it's going well. www.facebook.com/nearlgWould appreciate anyone going over and giving the page a like on Facebook, trying to grow it! Hope to see some of you guys maybe at a show one day. Cheers.

From Reddit Ugh, I was thinking about this recently. From 2008 to now, we've been through the lifespan of Oasis from first to last album and it only feels like yesterday. Fucking hell. And never in a million years when it happened did I think we'd be 14 years on without a reunion.

The window is closing. I know people will say McCartney and Stones and Dylan and what not but Gallagher brothers are different. Just don't see them rocking a first time Oasis reunion with them being properly old geezers. They can still pull it off if they act now. Reckon Noel knows it too, with his recent comments about bad back and not being as confident, must be feeling his age. That's why he's been making noises about 'call my people' etc.

That's why he's been making noises about 'call my people' etc. I do think about rock n roll being a young mans game, and that there needs to be an element of energy involved. With them both in their fifties, an element of good health and fitness is required. Sorry to say, but hedonistic partying in your 20s can catch up with you in later years, and there's no way Liam and Noel are going to have the energy of, say, Bruce Springsteen in ensuring consistent great gigs. Case in point is Bono who lived a life of excessive drinking and partying during U2's peak, and struggled with a heart issue a few years back. I'd like to think they are taking care of themselves. Attitude and motivation was one thing when they were going through the motions, but add age on to it, and a reunion is a lot more difficult and disastrous if both are doing it without passion and a care in the world.

Hastings band Breezer trained an AI on Liam's voice, and had it replace their lead singer for an album they've called "AISIS". And fuck me, if they'd told me it was a collection of new demos I'd have believed it. Liam should give them a call, honestly.

I second this view. More so in Noel’s case as hes nearly 56, and in his 60s i doubt he’d be convincing as the Noel we recall from Oasis. And while the Hashimoto’s treatment helped Liam gain some of his voice back, ultimately with age it will weaken. So if anything did happen it would need to be in the next 3 or 4 years. I think it would be too big a risk to their legacy if they tried any later.

Oasis are done. Let the band rest in peace. When it's over, it's over. It could never be as good as 94-97. Times have changed. Enjoy the albums and memories what they gave to us.
