@danjsy And the bass line from "Start" by The Jam is clearly a ripoff of Taxman. Regardless "The Jam" and "Death in Vegas" kick the living shit out of Satus Quo (a model for "Spinal Tap"). Have you ever though it might be a tribute, in both cases? This is one of the most power songs about this subject matter ever and even tops "Come Together" by Spiritualized, which ain't easy.
Ah, Here's another Gallerger boy doing what his ilk do best: blatantly ripping off artists of the 60's and pretending like they invented Wonder Bread.
ho, hum. it sounds recycled. I LOVE his voice but even his voice sounds washed out on this track. there's no instrumental that supports his voice and it falls flat. just keeping it real in this phony society.
his voice in this song was so much different then it ever was. I think this was recorded between hindu times and don't believe the truth which is why we don't hear this again. Brilliant vocal

Death in Vegas doing a self indulgent Oasis tribute via Quo's song? A sheer waste of time and $ - LG souds great, but the tune overall is a bit of a laugh - and the video is awful - Glad DIV didn't produce DOYS!
This tune is fucking mega. So what if its a nicked tune from quo, originality doesn't make it better. Lots of bands are better than the blues riffs they copped. Quo isn't even in the same fucking league as the gallaghers, never will be.
think you'll find oasis sold more albums and they were selling out bigger shows than the quo ever dig, right up until they split the other month. Fuckin Quo..haha their shite. Although Pictures Of Matchstick men is amazing...
Facts for you- As of June 2009, Oasis had sold over 70 million records worldwide.
STATUS QUO'S total world-wide record sales exceed 118 million units.
QUO now hold the record for more hit singles than any other band, both international and British, in UK chart history, in November 2005 they were presented with certificates commemorating this milestone by the Guinness British Book of Hit Singles & Albums.
Yer a knob and judging by yer reply not too bright. More singles, more albums, more sold out shows? If that's the measure of great musicians than all the fluff that riddles the music charts must be the best stuff. OASIS ARE A BETTER BAND THAN quo! Staus Quo are just ok,
Great song, but the directing is juvenile: slow motion is no substitute for grandeur. I say "juvenile," but I should qualify that: it's age-appropriate, if the director's in seventh grade. And what the f does this video have to do with the lyrics? Anyone?
OMG that bass line is blowing my fucking mind!!!!!!!!!!
amazing song
mad fer it
These comments just show that a classic rock song, Pictures of Matchstick Men, has the quality to endure through all the permutations of music evolution. Glad that DIV settled with the legal issues around them nicking the riff from Status Quo.
obviously you give a fuck enough to reply, its a pastiche of a 60s song even the title'sa rip off of kenneth anger for that edgy 1969 vibe,its an observation nothing to to do whether im a flange,
I read an interview with death in vegas, they said they had done about 15 takes of the lyrics and liam wasnt happy with any of them.... so went to the pub.... came back and done it in one go...happy days
Concordo. Io questo video, preciso in tutto anche nelle didascalie e negli errori digitali che appaiono a 1:21, ce l'ho. La versione con la scritta Suburban Disorder appare all'inizio dell'mpeg che tengo io.

well i dont care much for the dudes hence the spelling problem...most folks cant spell mine either...it doesnt make them any "mentally chalenged"...common sense.
What a great song and the vid. By the way, what is he singing about... scorpio rising ..does it refer to the movie from the 60', to the constellation, both.. AISHAAAAAA I'M CONFUSED :)
Although I like both, i think it's beyond doubt that Liam Gallaghers vocals are better than Ian Brown's. But the it's the style og Brown that has inspired Liam's singing.
Nicked from Pictures of Matchstick Men by Status Quo - in fact DIV were almost sued because they didn't ask permission to nick the riff...got settled though.
well he definatley didnt copy his stance, maybe the walk, im pretty sure hes always had that attitude, because both his brothers said was annoying as a little kid
one of his best vocal performances. and clearly a rip off from Status Quo.

Your correct, Quo are in a much higher league than noel and liam.
Quo have had more hit singles, sold more albums, played more sold out shows, opened live aid and still play sell out shows across the country.
considering one of the brothers was a big Quo fan and was inspired by the Quo i think that shows a lot.
