What this video has to do with a talentless streak of piss like Liam Gallagher, I do not know.
I hate Oasis, but appreciate they are good at what they do. But Liam isn't part of that songwriting process (well, he may be now but their latest 2 albums are by far the worst, which says it all).
I could understand if people were talking about Noel here (still, he doesn't have ANYTHING to do with this video), as Noel is somewhat talented.
But please, stop tarnishing a great video with Liam's name.
Yeah Oasis are really great too. Exited for their new record.. This video is just the best! Oh and the guy said we need someone "like" Kurt not a Rip off. I agree with him too. Popular music is in a weird place right now. Something needs to happen!
i don't why some idiot chose to bring up liam. oasis are legends, but completely different to nirvana, who alsodeserve the same accolade. fucking amazing performance. of course nirvana were a gurnge band, although i use that term loosely - but this is fucking punk rock - in the song, the attidue, the fact they performed it. quality.
This is so much better than wen the foos went on there and did Long road to ruin last year. the foos shudve done sumin like tht, like monkey wrench or The colour and the shape!
did any body have the territorial pissing song...? I really need that s***, wouldcha please send me the whole song... answer ME.......!!!!! <<<<just kidding)
haha, punk/rock/grunge, who cares. They have the punk spirit, which is something that's dead for the most part these days. I would love to fucking do this, just completely blow away everybody by playing something they weren't expecting. I love this song more then Smells Like Teen Spirit or Lithium. I'm kind of sad about how many times I have heard those two songs played over and over again by people. it's as if no one has heard any other songs by the band.
I always thought Nirvana was punk rock. I mean everyone called them grunge but I don't think there really is such a thing. Nirvana and pearl jam are punk. They just didn't have Mohawks so people made up a new genre.
"When it was over, Dave Grohl walked past me and said, 'sorry man'. And Phil Smith, their record company man, came up and said they'd pay for the damage, which unbelievably they did."
They couldn't make out the words so they stuck to the shooting script for 'Lithium'". By the time Lewis was able to flag down the production crew, the band were already trashing their equipment.
All efforts to manage the production proved futile, however, as the band broke out into an impromtu and furiously intense version of 'Territorial Pissings'. Initially, the show's production crew didn't realise that the band were playing a different song: "The people in the production gallery didn't realise.
[It] is essential for the camera crew to work out a shooting script from the lyrics, so that [they] can point the camera at the drummer or guitarist at suitable points in the song." When Cobain did eventually arrive on set, with just an hour to go until the live transmission, a second soundcheck/camera blocking rehearsal was hastily put together for 'Lithium
Ominously, Cobain failed to show up for NIRVANA's first soundcheck for Tonight With Jonathan Ross. Show researcher, Steve Lewis, explained how this posed a challenge for the production crew:
there was something about this gig i dont remember... were they supposed to play smells like teen spirit? at least they did something unexpected as far as i know.
Ohh Yeahh Grunge! so cooooool!! :P
