"Well, of course, we had it tough. We used to 'ave to get up out of shoebox at twelve o'clock at night and lick road clean wit' tongue.

Hahaha, "there last chance to drags themselves up on the coat tails of my band" did he miss the bit where blur initiated the 90's brit pop movement that probably got them their record deal in the first place?
I thinks both bands are good and all that. But sometimes Noel acts with a bit of ignorance. "I've worked on building sites, Damon's never had a paper round in his life" is a classic example. I don't want to get in an argument or anything like that, that's just what i think. Anybody care to comment, without getting pissed off, please?
@DDDDDeannnnn Are you an ignorant prick? Before I start I fucking love both Blur and Oasis! I buy both their albums because they're both good bands, I didn't decide to chose just one band and hate the other depending and what my mates opinion was. And as much as I love Blur, I can't deny that Oasis are definitely the superior band, and have actually produced classics.
I think Noel is playing up to the camera for the sake of the movie to make it more entertaining...he comes off as a twat here but I think he knows he's being a twat and doesn't care...he's just playing it up. Deep down he's not a bad bloke.
@ainsleywalker No southerners have a hard life son, cocktails and silver spoon's from the age of 5! Not like us northerners, coal mines and pint of best haha
@TheHiddenAnswer Exactly, i've never worked a bloody day in my life. I still consider myself better than Noel Gallagher. He's an ignorant big headed cunt who doesn't like Robbie Williams, he's fabo. His brother is a notch lower on the evolutionary ladder. My point being whether you're from the North or South, everybodies life is hard to a certain degree. He thinks his problems are worse than everybody else's, thus he is a cunt. Whether from Leytonstone or Burnage.
Did he work on a building site then or just have a milkround for a week or two?Thought he'd been a roadie?Bit of an odd philosophy, I worked on northern building sites for ten years and can't remember it purifying my soul in any way.It was just shit and had really dirty toilets.
oh and one last thing, everyone seems to be complaining that oasis songs all sound the same but to true oasis fans they don't. i mean yeah the done it in the same manner, which was to make stadium rock n roll music because that's what they were good at, but STOSOG sounds completely different to any of their other albums. plus Noel's now taken a different route with his High Flying Bird's, every song sounds different so you can't start whining about that.
noel gallagher is probably the best songwriter since john lennon and bob dylan, the man is a fucking genius. to write 'Live Forever' during the Grunge Era was just insanely brilliant. a lot of people seem to hate noel gallagher's music because they hate him as a person but i don't understand why, damon albarn is as big a prick as noel. the simple fact is that Oasis influenced loads more bands than Blur did, they were the best band of the 90s.
@cammykennedy Lad, what the fuck would you know? you're 16 for fuck sake. Britpop was already winding down the year you were born. Take Blurs self titled 5th album or 13 ... They shit all over anything Gallagher ever wrote from a god like hight... Period! Listen to Essex Dogs, Caramel or Country sad Ballad man. Noel the Neanderthal couldn't write anything that creative and down right genius as long as he has a whole in his arse!
While Blur and Oasis were at the height of battling it out to be the king of Britbands, I'd say one band came out of nowhere with a masterpiece album that stood head and shoulders above the pair of them. Radiohead with The Bends.
dont judge noels music just cuz hes arrogant. personally i think hes fucking hilarious. And i think hes music is much deeper and better, but blur is a bit catchier. I still like oasis a LOT more though
They're both genius in their area, Blur is more creative though, Albarn can write in so many different styles. Noel is awesome, one of the best of our time but he is a bit too arrogant! But whatever, they're both great bands and it's a shame we don't have any bands like that in the UK today!
I fucking hate Damon Albarn. Blur have some good songs but he is such a cunt. Just one of those posh toffs you see in indie bands now days who try and act all artsy and upper class and better than everybody else. I'm from the south and I can relate to Oasis more than I ever could for Blur.
@ryneldo alot of it is tonge in cheek an bravado .. an attension seeking .. some of it is honesty .. I think most bands/artists aint trying to make OK music .. an they are trying to be thest they can be.. I would say u find bigger egos than the Gallaghers in many bands/artists .. you need some ego to believe in what u are doing an to work hard on it .. I think most have bigger egos .. but most pretend to be modest an keep it inside .. all u gotta do is look at chris martins face when on stage
Noel was so hung up on comparing himself and his band to the past great bands in the UK. Honestly Oasis is a great example of how not to handle the super stardom. The boozing/drugs/writing songs just because you have a deadline for an album. Blur never mentioned anything about their place in history. They let their music speak for themselves and didn't care what anyone thought about them. They kept their heads down, stayed healthy, were good citizens. Plus they're great musicians.
@cammykennedy Blur had so many great songs! There was Beetlebum, Coffee and TV, Song 2, Charmless Man, Chemical World! Even Noel the asshole admitted to liking Beetlebum and Chemical World! Oasis is good but I prefer Blur. You can like whatever you want just don't insult Blur!
@rufiredup90 Oasis had many more great songs, here's a few: Live Forever, Slide Away, Supersonic, The Masterplan, Champagne Supernova, Wonderwall, Don't Look Back In Anger, D'You Know What I Mean, Some Might Say, Cast No Shadow, Acquiesce, Whatever, Morning Glory....It's not that Blur never wrote anything good, but they were not even in the same class as Oasis. I like Beetlebum and Song 2, that's it. Prefer what you want because it's your opinion, but admit the better band - Oasis.
@Bucboy1001 Never will I admit Oasis is better! :) I just like listening to Blur's diverse style and their song writing is just much more poetic to me. Oasis, on the other hand, sound the same most of the time. Not that the songs are not good, they are, but heck, I just like Blur more. Anyway, your logic is not sound because you'd never do the same if I were to fire back this sentence at ya " Prefer what you want because it's your opinion, but admit the better band - Blur." :) Have nice day.
@rufiredup90 There is a difference between the better band and your favorite band. People don't seem to understand this difference. For example, the Beatles are the better band, Oasis is my favorite band. So yes Blur maybe your favorite band that you prefer listening to, but Oasis is the better band. Anyone who knows anything knows that Oasis was the best band of Britpop, fact, no opinion necessary.
@Bucboy1001 I beg to differ. Blur was far more versatile in expanding their genres. They tried to make their music sound diverse and they were far more experimental than Oasis could ever hope to be. The fact is actually Blur's the better band. Granted, Oasis sold more records but Blur were more versatile, experimental, daring and poetic than Oasis were. Just because Oasis sold more records doesn't mean they were the better band. And it's just your opinion that Oasis = better band = fact.
@Bucboy1001 It has NEVER been proven that Oasis was the better band. If you try to say that they were based on record sales well, like I said, record sales doesn't mean they're better. It just means they're more successful commercially. If you still insist they are then that's still just your opinion. It has never been made an official fact that Oasis were the better band. Anyway, all this gibberish is pointless because you'd never see my POV, and I'd never see yours. So ta! ;)
@rufiredup90 Uhhh, the name of the Britpop documentary this video is out of is called "Live Forever", not Parklife. They make it quite apparent that Oasis was better with interviews from writers who studied the movement to people involved in the record companies. Again, its not opinion, its fact. Like what you want, idc, but its true.
@Bucboy1001 So they titled it "Live Forever", that doesn't make them immediately the better band! I don't see it as a written proven fact that they're better. It is still just your opinion. Where in god's name has it been proven that one band was better than the other??? If we were in court, could you actually tell me that a judge and the jury will say "You're guilty because Oasis is the better band!" AGAIN, it is just your opinion! I rest my case. I'm bored of arguing with people like you.
@rufiredup90 They have people in the documentary that were involved with both bands and its admitted that Oasis was better. They asked Damon about the issue, and he gave a 'no comment' on the issue because he was embarrassed about the whole thing. I'm not shouting opinions, they're facts, so stop saying that. And everyone knows that the Beatles were the best band of all time. So obviously there are better bands than others. I'm sure you think Blur are better than some other hack band out today.
@Bucboy1001 Yes, Damon would be embarrassed and say things like "No comment". He's just that type of person who would be ashamed of his success in Blur. Pfft. Don't give me that crap. He said that because he's just much more polite than the Gallagher brothers. They'd say horrid things like "We're fookin' number 1!" You can't argue with fans of certain band and say mine is better because people said so. Who are these people? Their words makes it law? Blur is the better band but it is an opinion!
@rufiredup90 No, the question was not about his success, it was about the "battle", he was at a loss for words and gave a no comment answer as to avoid the whole issue for trying to build up the battle commercially back then. B/c if you recall, it was Damon who fell for that and bought into it. For example, moving their single back to the same day of when Oasis was releasing their's. Noel grilled Damon for that and the comment he made on the news that sort of stoked the fire of the "battle"
@Bucboy1001 I read an interview with Damon in this magazine once. He told the interviewer why it was he actually moved the date and it was because of an incident that occurred after Oasis won an award for which Blur was nominated for as well. He said he was going to congratulate them but Oasis just went to his face and shouted "We're fookin' number 1!" and Damon was like "We'll see!" but he didn't say anything to their face. That's why he moved the date and brought Country House on the same w/
@Bucboy1001 Roll with It b/c he wanted to prove something to Oasis. Bieber's stupid film got was higher grossed than Michael Jackson's This Is It and his record sales, album sales are off the hooks, it surely does make him a whole lot better than other artists of this era doesn't it? Sigh. Record sales doesn't make one band better than the other. But since this isn't going anywhere I'll give in to you and just admit Oasis is the better band. Happy now? Have nice day! :)
@rufiredup90 Record sales don't matter today because the music industry has grown pop heavy with Bieber and Gaga. Back then sales, charts, awards mattered because it was music. Now everything has come to 14 yr old boys with Bieber hair, and Pop stars in dresses made out of meat or ice cream dancing with choreography and synthesized, its pathetic. Anyway, this has dragged on long enough, I'll let you be on your way. Have a nice day, as well!!! ;)
@Bucboy1001 Ahhh, finally a point I can agree on. Trash like Bieber and Gaga...What is the music industry coming to? Tsk, tsk. It was so much fun arguing with you though. I must admit. Hahaha. I think it would've been a whole lot of fun if we did it in person too. Alright...I'll be off then. Bye! :)
@rufiredup90 And "those" people were the ones producing the bands. The ones partying with them, helping them release their music. Who are they? A lot more important than you or I lol. Their word doesn't make it law, but when you put all the facts together - record sales, largest free standing gig @ the time, their continous streak of singles coming in at #1, the fastest selling debut album @ the time, two albums that were considered tops in the last 30 years.....it all adds up
@Bucboy1001 Just as to you Oasis is the better band! Stop saying it's a fact! It's an opinion. Period. The Beatles would be the best band in the world but other fans would have an opinion and say that perhaps they like The Rolling Stones better and to them that is the best band. It is their opinion. If you were a fan of The Beatles you can't argue with them. It's an OPINION. They can like whatever they want to like. Fans can prefer and state one band's better than the other and no one can argue!
“It's been done.” ~ The Beatles on Oasis “Oh great! This is my favourite Beatles track! Hey wait a minute, this isn't...” ~ The average partygoer on an Oasis song that sounds a lot like a Beatles one
@DAG241 well i like blur and oasis also but i guess than blur is better. because oasis always repeat his songs. how can i say it? always the same rythm
john lennon and joe strummer were middle class and champions of the people. wayne rooney is a wc sellout. its not where you come from its where you end up going
@DannyMadFerIt lol I'd take any Blur singer over that, Blur has better songs, better albums, better variety, and are more consistent in making good albums. Oasis= Fail in 2000s.
@DannyMadFerIt Big no matte and that's just an opinion. Blur has is way more creativity (fact) which has more variety in their songs. At least Blur is still amazing even after their 2003 albums. Liam just copies songs from the beatles pathetically. Their newer album is ok, in my opinion not that good. I like Oasis in the 90s, but Oasis is just a britpop band making britpop songs, Blur is a britpop bands who makes so many creative songs. You can see the maturity of blur unlike Oasis.
i recon nowadays if damon and noel got together and corroborated it would be class... i recon they would respect each other cus they both have one thing in comon..... they both think liam is a fucking asshole
@LuvLesha lol whatever dude At least Damon respects other bands. LIAM IS A HUGE DOUCHE! He talks crap about almost every band. He thinks he's so awesome when he's just a Axl Rose
@fralexjames 'The dirt under your fingernails is not a badge of honour'. Noel's an intelligent guy - he was being sarcastic, not contradicting himself. You aren't American are you? Because if you are I'm just wasting my time.
All the Blur fans can keep their petty opinions to themselves because in the end its Oasis who defined this era hence the name of the documentary 'Live Forever' (as ant8tfive stated above).
And for those who misunderstand the honesty and humor the Gallaghers speak with, you don't GET Oasis....
damon albarn and noel gallagher are my idols. but blur has more diversity in music quality than oasis, and more polite. but yeah, blur is the middle-class band, oasis the working class.
The coat tales of my band? Blur paved the way for his 2 bit group! What a massive prick. I grew up in an even poorer part of Manchester than he did, Does that make my soul even purer than his then?
Class has fuck all to do with it. The fact is (and it is a fact folks) Damon Albarn is a genius song writer with more strings to his bow than Thunderbird 1 ever had.
Blur were better musicians, more interesting and actualy evolved as a group. Oasis Stagnated like a dog turd "In the sun shyiiiine"
@blakefish80 It isn't a fact because music is all totally and utterly subjective pal and the simple fact is however you try to sugarcoat it Oasis' music speaks to peoples souls and hearts. I'll never claim blur to be shit because they quite obviously aren't but you really do sound like an ignorant cunt with (and it is a fact folks) nonsense.
@blakefish80 I could start listing facts about the number of albums oasis have sold in comparison to blur the ammount of number ones etc. but can't be fucking arsed as ur obv just a bit of a bitter angry prick also i pissed myself with the Blur paving the way for oasis was really fucking funny. Peace out mate just going to listen to some genius oasis tunes with lots of strings to their bows written by the genius Noel Gallagher Thunderbird 1 (and that is a fact folks). Live forever
@stevebruce13 So the retards bought more albums... Great. Now they've moved onto Ndubz and JLS. You really don't see how Oasis hammered the same dead horse over and over for the same album, indeed the same song, same sound over and over and over and fucking over add nauseum?
No imagination, no creativeity. It's lazy song writing, barely a step up from X Factor level manufactured pop... 3 chord shite with nursery rhyme lyrics... "I'm feelin' super seeeeonic, gi' me Gin n' Teeeeonic"... Painfull.
@blakefish80 Jesus Christ mate well done you summed up every oasis lyric there didn't you not taking that outta context at all 'He lives in a house a very big house in the country' so profound so profetic it really tugs at the fucking heartstrings doesn't it. Yeah Oasis tunes sound similar, not all bands totally change things up and there well within there rights not to. Their tunes still affect me more then most things in life and if blur do that for you then i've no problem mate. Live Forever.
@blakefish80 Where did I dispute the fact that Damons more of an artist I didn't mention it. I love noel because he's a fucking songwriter and a musician not because he's an artist who can make two milk bottles sound like a bass. I'm not even here for an argument just pisses me off when people come on to videos to criticize other artists and talk shite about em i've never gone onto a youtube video of a band or artist i hate to just slate them what would be the point?
@theredraven In the early 1990's Britain was swamped with bad Nirvana wannabe US "grunge" groupes. The shoe gazing groups of the Madchester period had all but fazed out and British culture was under seige by what has later been described as "Coka Colanization". It was Blur who rebelled against this, writing albums like Modern Life is Rubbish, A destinctly English sound to their music that was totaly against what was happening then.
Blur were the true trailblazers that led the way for Britpop.
@blakefish80 Blur were about when the Grunge era was going on, and they didn't change anything as at that time Grunge was bigger than British music. i'm a huge Oasis fan and i don't think they started britpop either, it was the death of Kurt Cobain that paved the way for britpop, that's when the likes of Oasis, Blur, Pulp, Supergrass etc. all got the recognition. when Cobain died, the Grunge era died and that's when these bands took advantage of the space in the music industry in britain.

So what! you failed your GCSE's and worked on building sites. BIG FUCKING DEAL! That doesn't mean that oasis are better than blur. Both bands are just as good as each other. now personally i am a massive blur fan. but i don't think that either of the bands are better than each other.
there is a lot of inverted snobbery going on here, sure Damon was from an upper middle class family but he never made any excuse for that, all of his songs are about upper middle class life, ''charmless man'', ''country house'' etc.
to say that you have more soul than somebody else because you were born to a working class family is just wrong, i still love Oasis though, and Noel :)
I remember reading that Liam Gallagher was quite friendly with Damon when he last saw him at an awards show. Noel said that if he saw Damon again, he'd say hi.
once you think about it, this really isn't a "battle" its just two bands talkin bullshit about each other for decades (or just oasis talking shit about blur). otherwise the battle would have finish a long time ago. doesn't really matter to me who sold more or which song is better, i like em both, bitch. D:
What does he mean by this? Oasis had to work hard, but Blur didn't? I don't get it. Pretty much every band has to work hard. Maybe I misunderstood him
@gogolplex74 Not necessarily I'm talking about the Britpop versus in which the media and the NME pinned Oasis and Blur together because of their sales of Albums. Now fans of britney spears can think that but I think Oasis,Gallagher brothers and other groups are better and have more meaning to their music.
musically oasis haven't been relevant since 1995, they were only ever capable of producing the same old pub rock album after album.. the ONE time it looked like they might actually come up with something interesting when they started working with death in vegas as producers in 03, they bottled it and it all fell through..
blur on the other hand are the exact opposite. creative, innovative, interesting and always relevant.
@gladitsmonday hmm mate by what you say you haven't herd a lot of Oasis, trust me they have some very very nice songs but they are not their most famous ones xD
...its not about who worked on building sites and who had working class roots! Its about the music. Oasis were ok but Blur was what I preferred. These 2 bands got into such a spat for no reason, as there were loads of better English bands that piss on oasis!! Oasis were average pub rock rubbish at best!!
@luzhizui Nine out of ten things Noel Gallagher says are sarcastic, oh well, if people want to hate something/someone I guess they'll come up with some invalid reason to do so.
@LeKtiCJ I think you mean to say that his comments are ironic. I dispute this, however you claim that 9/10 of Gallagher's comments are sarcastic. I dispute this also, but given that sarcasm is the lowest form of wit you may have a point....
Blur definitely had better songs, with more original ideas behind them. Oasis is more iconic and I like their songs too, but most of them are a bit one-note aren't they? Might be a matter of personal taste...
@gladitsmonday Yeah it is a matter of pesonal taste, you can't say oasis' songs are one note songs try listening to champagne supernova, the masterplan and who put the weight of the world on my shoulders, then I can't see how anyone could prefer blur to Oasis
@liammcfc I love both Blur and Oasis. The difference is that Oasis has a winning formula that they use over and over again. Not saying that it's bad, because it's not. They use the same style for What's the Story, Morning Glory and that album is one of my favourites.
Blur changes their style and variety in every song. Each song sounds different, yet seems similar. That's what I love about Blur.
But I can't and won't choose between them, because they are both awesome :D Just my opinion.
@gladitsmonday I respect your opinion but Blur have never matched Oasis biggest hits like Wonderwall & Don't Look Back In Anger. Everyone know these songs, but not everyone knows Country House etc... Not even Song 2!
"don't dress it up and make it seem like it's something its not" yeah, that would be like someone from a shit band believing he was the greatest musician alive... oh, wait, THAT'S WHAT YOU DO!
Yeah, his soul is purer because he put a few bricks together. Arrogant prick, what the fuck has that got to do with music?
It's hardly anyone's fault if they are brought up with some more money than others. You would hardly choose to go and work on a building site if you already have some money.
You look a cunt sitting in that chair Noel..

Noel was so hung up on comparing himself and his band to the past great bands in the UK. Honestly Oasis is a great example of how not to handle the super stardom. The boozing/drugs/writing songs just because you have a deadline for an album. Blur never mentioned anything about their place in history. They let their music speak for themselves and didn't care what anyone thought about them. They kept their heads down, stayed healthy, were good citizens. Plus they're great musicians.

@rufiredup90 Oasis had many more great songs, here's a few: Live Forever, Slide Away, Supersonic, The Masterplan, Champagne Supernova, Wonderwall, Don't Look Back In Anger, D'You Know What I Mean, Some Might Say, Cast No Shadow, Acquiesce, Whatever, Morning Glory....It's not that Blur never wrote anything good, but they were not even in the same class as Oasis. I like Beetlebum and Song 2, that's it. Prefer what you want because it's your opinion, but admit the better band - Oasis.
Bucboy1001 2 months ago
@Bucboy1001 Never will I admit Oasis is better! :) I just like listening to Blur's diverse style and their song writing is just much more poetic to me. Oasis, on the other hand, sound the same most of the time. Not that the songs are not good, they are, but heck, I just like Blur more. Anyway, your logic is not sound because you'd never do the same if I were to fire back this sentence at ya " Prefer what you want because it's your opinion, but admit the better band - Blur." :) Have nice day.
rufiredup90 2 months ago
@rufiredup90 There is a difference between the better band and your favorite band. People don't seem to understand this difference. For example, the Beatles are the better band, Oasis is my favorite band. So yes Blur maybe your favorite band that you prefer listening to, but Oasis is the better band. Anyone who knows anything knows that Oasis was the best band of Britpop, fact, no opinion necessary.
Bucboy1001 2 months ago
@Bucboy1001 I beg to differ. Blur was far more versatile in expanding their genres. They tried to make their music sound diverse and they were far more experimental than Oasis could ever hope to be. The fact is actually Blur's the better band. Granted, Oasis sold more records but Blur were more versatile, experimental, daring and poetic than Oasis were. Just because Oasis sold more records doesn't mean they were the better band. And it's just your opinion that Oasis = better band = fact.
rufiredup90 2 months ago
@Bucboy1001 It has NEVER been proven that Oasis was the better band. If you try to say that they were based on record sales well, like I said, record sales doesn't mean they're better. It just means they're more successful commercially. If you still insist they are then that's still just your opinion. It has never been made an official fact that Oasis were the better band. Anyway, all this gibberish is pointless because you'd never see my POV, and I'd never see yours. So ta! ;)
rufiredup90 2 months ago
@rufiredup90 Uhhh, the name of the Britpop documentary this video is out of is called "Live Forever", not Parklife. They make it quite apparent that Oasis was better with interviews from writers who studied the movement to people involved in the record companies. Again, its not opinion, its fact. Like what you want, idc, but its true.
Bucboy1001 2 months ago
@Bucboy1001 So they titled it "Live Forever", that doesn't make them immediately the better band! I don't see it as a written proven fact that they're better. It is still just your opinion. Where in god's name has it been proven that one band was better than the other??? If we were in court, could you actually tell me that a judge and the jury will say "You're guilty because Oasis is the better band!" AGAIN, it is just your opinion! I rest my case. I'm bored of arguing with people like you.
rufiredup90 2 months ago
@rufiredup90 They have people in the documentary that were involved with both bands and its admitted that Oasis was better. They asked Damon about the issue, and he gave a 'no comment' on the issue because he was embarrassed about the whole thing. I'm not shouting opinions, they're facts, so stop saying that. And everyone knows that the Beatles were the best band of all time. So obviously there are better bands than others. I'm sure you think Blur are better than some other hack band out today.
Bucboy1001 2 months ago
@Bucboy1001 Yes, Damon would be embarrassed and say things like "No comment". He's just that type of person who would be ashamed of his success in Blur. Pfft. Don't give me that crap. He said that because he's just much more polite than the Gallagher brothers. They'd say horrid things like "We're fookin' number 1!" You can't argue with fans of certain band and say mine is better because people said so. Who are these people? Their words makes it law? Blur is the better band but it is an opinion!
rufiredup90 2 months ago
@rufiredup90 No, the question was not about his success, it was about the "battle", he was at a loss for words and gave a no comment answer as to avoid the whole issue for trying to build up the battle commercially back then. B/c if you recall, it was Damon who fell for that and bought into it. For example, moving their single back to the same day of when Oasis was releasing their's. Noel grilled Damon for that and the comment he made on the news that sort of stoked the fire of the "battle"
Bucboy1001 2 months ago
@Bucboy1001 I read an interview with Damon in this magazine once. He told the interviewer why it was he actually moved the date and it was because of an incident that occurred after Oasis won an award for which Blur was nominated for as well. He said he was going to congratulate them but Oasis just went to his face and shouted "We're fookin' number 1!" and Damon was like "We'll see!" but he didn't say anything to their face. That's why he moved the date and brought Country House on the same w/

@Bucboy1001 Roll with It b/c he wanted to prove something to Oasis. Bieber's stupid film got was higher grossed than Michael Jackson's This Is It and his record sales, album sales are off the hooks, it surely does make him a whole lot better than other artists of this era doesn't it? Sigh. Record sales doesn't make one band better than the other. But since this isn't going anywhere I'll give in to you and just admit Oasis is the better band. Happy now? Have nice day! :)
rufiredup90 2 months ago
@rufiredup90 Record sales don't matter today because the music industry has grown pop heavy with Bieber and Gaga. Back then sales, charts, awards mattered because it was music. Now everything has come to 14 yr old boys with Bieber hair, and Pop stars in dresses made out of meat or ice cream dancing with choreography and synthesized, its pathetic. Anyway, this has dragged on long enough, I'll let you be on your way. Have a nice day, as well!!! ;)

@rufiredup90 And "those" people were the ones producing the bands. The ones partying with them, helping them release their music. Who are they? A lot more important than you or I lol. Their word doesn't make it law, but when you put all the facts together - record sales, largest free standing gig @ the time, their continous streak of singles coming in at #1, the fastest selling debut album @ the time, two albums that were considered tops in the last 30 years.....it all adds up
Bucboy1001 2 months ago
@Bucboy1001 Just as to you Oasis is the better band! Stop saying it's a fact! It's an opinion. Period. The Beatles would be the best band in the world but other fans would have an opinion and say that perhaps they like The Rolling Stones better and to them that is the best band. It is their opinion. If you were a fan of The Beatles you can't argue with them. It's an OPINION. They can like whatever they want to like. Fans can prefer and state one band's better than the other and no one can argue!

@blakefish80 Blur were about when the Grunge era was going on, and they didn't change anything as at that time Grunge was bigger than British music. i'm a huge Oasis fan and i don't think they started britpop either, it was the death of Kurt Cobain that paved the way for britpop, that's when the likes of Oasis, Blur, Pulp, Supergrass etc. all got the recognition. when Cobain died, the Grunge era died and that's when these bands took advantage of the space in the music industry in britain.

@liammcfc I love both Blur and Oasis. The difference is that Oasis has a winning formula that they use over and over again. Not saying that it's bad, because it's not. They use the same style for What's the Story, Morning Glory and that album is one of my favourites.
Blur changes their style and variety in every song. Each song sounds different, yet seems similar. That's what I love about Blur.
But I can't and won't choose between them, because they are both awesome :D Just my opinion.
