Glasvegas on the album and being compared to Oasis

[razelnutsofficial]

oasis is so over rated, glasvegas is so much better

[WhiteRoseRiotBoy]

oasis + glasvegas = 2 great bands. Both British, both write from the heart. Appreciate, dont hate.

[1967JAMO]

GREAT SONG !! 

[snazzzable]

glasvegas being compared to oasis is an insult to oasis.

[MrPeterGroove]

oasis=effin chocolate

glasvegas=utter shit

[beatsanctuary]

@MrPeterGroove

Totally agree, they have to be one of the worst bands,

and and as far as their "personalities" i found this interview cringeworthy

[domlo66]

love the football-chanting in Daddy's Gone

[cubancigarcrisis]

Nice hands.

[JayCon1995]

Im a big fan of oasis i have loved theme since i was little i still love oasis, i now listen to Glasvegas and they are amazing the music is so deep and emotional i love it and i would say they are a scotish version of oasis and thats probley why i love glasvegas cuz they remind me of Oasis :D

[blackappleseed]

this "comparison" is simply ridiculous!!

[abnormallyfunny]

i like his hands.

[abrady83]

seen these fuks at slane!! they were so shit they crowd didnt even notice dem!! and that feking girl drummer is do feking boring!! how kan u compare the best band ever to these cockheads!

[declanleonard1979]

another thing,noel must think highly enough of them if he had them supporting oasis instead of the enemy(who he loves) at slane castle.if they are good enough for legends like noel and u2 i dont think there is a need to continue this shit.

[declanleonard1979]

muppets.why compare them?even james took the piss when asked about the comparison.oasis were the band of the 90's,fucking quality.best band around in the 90's.seen them loads and they have a set full of quality.

glasvegas-i'm impressed with their album,some quality tunes on it.seen them at oxegen and supporting u2 and they are good live.met them halfway through u2 and they were top lads.if you dont like them why you watching the video.if its just to slag them off you need to sort your shit out

[Muse1radiohead0]

Why is anybody even comparing the two-band s? They are definitely better artists than all of us but for some reason we compare music like we are better than both bands please respect both bands and stop comparing. they both are obviously better than all of us

[higgolini]

They're definitely similar in that you can't understand what the hell either one of them are saying. James and Liam are equally indiscipherable.

[PESFanDrInvincible]

Glasvegas are nothing like Oasis. They're fucking terrible. Completely untalented. Depressing shite. Oasis dominated the 90s. Hopefully these fuckers get stabbed, they sing about it enough.

[smydo27]

warwickboy...You seem tae have a real balanced view of affairs my good man...you're as bad as the feckin nationalists up here ya twat. Now that ah'm no pissed anyway, I'll repeat that Glasvegas have a few good tunes - ones worthy of defendin against agein Oasis neds (or ur you 12?). Canny believe ah'm risin tae the bait....

[VengeanceIsMineBitch]

well well well, if it isnae irvine fecking welch, learn the queens english, learn it noo boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[warwickaaron]

none of you are even glas vegas fans...you just think they are better than oasis because youre scottish, quite sad really eh? when oasis were around for as long as glas vegas had been they already had the fastest selling debut album ever....and were on their way to writing one of the best albums ever.....OASIS WERE THE 90'S glas vegas arent even worthy of lacing pete doherty or carl barats shoes, and they are crackheads! scottish dickheads, will never be as good as the english

[warwickaaron]

smydo27.....you clearly know nothing about music if you think songs like Cigarettes and alcohol dont last years and years...that was 15 years ago and how many kids are now on the dole and all they really need is cigarettes and alcohol to forget how crap their lives are? wonderwall is one of the best love songs ever written and live forever gets voted the best song ever written all the time! ....oh and glas vegas arent even in the same league as the arctic monkeys let alone oasis mate!!!!!!

[sarahkeno84]

All arguments are moot really when you consider Glasvegas have ripped off Jesus and mary chain and oasis ripped off every great british rock band in the 60s and even a song from a feckin coke ad

[cndn85MB]

So what...I once read a quote that I thought was brilliant. Oasis is the sound of every great british Rock 'n Roll band rolled into one.

The fact that they manage to have all those different influences and make them apparent while at the same time managing to create their own distinctive sound is amazing in itself.

[smydo27]

By the way....Comparisons tae Oasis are just ridiculous not least because Oasis are incapable of somethin like 'It's My Own Cheatin...' - they're a fat bloated monster noo with only their fans, it seems, in mind. Shame: Noel Gallagher had an eye for a tune but how fuckin borin are the tunes now? Christ man, give yourself a shake and produce somethin worthy of yer years and experience - it's all so fuckin tired and churned oot. Used tae love them tae....Liams a feckin tube and Noel's rich.

[smydo27]

Think it bein so close to home shows how much unfair abuse ye come under as a hyped band: the 'vegas have a few really good tunes and ah think the main boy looks like somebody that's dead shy who's tryin tae cope as best he kin wi the attention (dark glasses and aw that). They're doin ok, ah jist hope they kin ride the storm. ' My cheatin heart...' is an ecstasy eh self-pity and loathin that I can relate tae. I think it's a brilliant piece eh work. Too many thick-hiedit Oasis drones in here...

[herbchuffa]

glasvegas are ok. they totally sound like the jesus and mary chain but

[theburrd]

I don't think you can really compare the two just yet. I'm a massive Glasvegas fan, but appreciate how successful Oasis are....

So Oasis sold out Wembley 3 nights running.... None of my American friends have ever heard of them....but Glasvegas? They've heard of them, so it's all relevant.

And at least Glasvegas can get through a gig without their lead singer walking off or getting into a fight with another member of the band....

[carlmoss88]

new oasis my arse

[UberBeaver]

fuck

[LiamAndDylan]

glas vegas are crap compared to oasis

[TheWestHammers]

you can't compare those two names ..

im a massive oasis fan and a massive glasvegas fan .. personally i think glasvegas' lyrics are great and their instrumental is a bit different than things you normally hear .. oasis is just oasis you know .. they're just great all over

[oasismonkeyslfc]

is he taking the piss when he calls all his songs his babies? cos the drummer starts laughing as if so.

[muse182182]

No offence but i have no idea what he is talking about. Im just glad i can hear what he is singing

[Shaguar66]

please never compare Glasvegas to Oasis. Oasis are just too good to be compared to somebody like Glas Vegas

[GazHTIDGaz]

Oasis r shit!!!

[Shaguar66]

then welcome then to your club shithead.

[mrleefosho]

you are shit.

[supastrika]

I think glasvegas are a descent band, and being scottish its good to see a band from glasgow make it and not loose themselves!

[wishywashy2016]

what an ugly band.

[GazHTIDGaz]

cause your a ugly mug! haha

[IHNSAIN]

funny thing is im from glasgow and most songs are saying thay are not avalible in my country

[ewhi1]

when liam was aksed about being compared to the beatles he said ive got two arms and they had two arms... the lead singer of of glasvegas has obviously seen that interview

[TheWestHammers]

oasis owns glasvegas even though glasvegas is a great band

[guigs83]

Im getting tired of this moron writing on all glasvegas videos on youtube that james allan is a joe strummer impersonator and the band itself copies U2 and coldplay...it's on every glasvegas videos comments... fuck u wanker

[lunaticrose13]

i know so am i, i was wondering if it was just random, if u dont like the band fuck off and just let the ones who do enjoy it

[lobsterjohnson88]

u2 only ripped off joy division....everyone rips off....fuck joe strummer!

[Ripper116]

@guigs83 go wankin^^

[traciroxx85]

hahahaha! Does the singer think that he's the only person who knows who Joe Strummer is?

This is a cheap attempt isn't it!

[posuerbuster]

Whatever happened to being ORIGINAL?

JOE STRUMMER costume wearing singer.

U2 and Coldplay cover group?

This is SHITE.

[deadpassive]

Eh?

He looks a bit like Joe Strummer, get over it. If you think he dresses like him did then you can't be all that familiar with Joe Strummer.

How the hell can you say Glasvegas sound like U2 or Coldplay? Even remotely? That is such a ridiculous claim.

[posuerbuster]

GlasJokeus...

This is a sham.

[lobsterjohnson88]

U2 were only a joy division cover group anyway....fuck joe strummer hes worm food

[dissolutionangel]

daddy's gone will, at some point, be used as a football chant.

[gazmckay]

see all you wee fannys tring te make shite coments aboot is band get a fucking life ther one ow the best bands in britton just noo, n elephant rage shut yer fucking face ya wee bawbag the fae glesga its called slang -.- ats e wae wee talk sa just shut yer fukin face

[ElephantRage]

Why don't they speak some fucking english?!

[Finchowned]

Them chumps need to cheer the hell up. Sure Scotland is shiz but, dude, why the long face?

[mattyrocknroll]

Fair point LeBouf but Glasvegas are pony end of story

[mattyrocknroll]

LeBoufStinks

Will glasvegas ever get 2 of the biggest british albums in history? No

The story ends there my friend!

[morrink]

whats wrong with the drummer! Just becouse she is a women?

Idiots...

[Talarspeed]

I agree that they need a new drummer. Is she a mom of one of the members?

[LennonMorrissey]

For me, they're more like 'The Clash'. I think they need a new drummer, though...this is not a sexist comment.

[JoeyVegas775]

Glasvegas and Oasis are two different bands with two different sounds. Glasvegas simple and heartfelt and Oasis with melody, hook and mega hits.

Why even try to compare the two...

Im happy for both of them

[deadpassive]

This is probably the most sensible comment on here.

[britnic34]

oh! oh! whoa! whoa! etc etc ...repetitive pish

[mattyrocknroll]

Jealous Guy

Yes I'm seeing Oasis twice this year & I know what they're playing on the tour. Wonderwall & DNBIA are 2 of their biggest hits, they've changed the arrangement & now doing those to songs with a live choir so I really dont understand what your point is?

Glasvegas will not be here next year, let alone in 15 years like the mighty Oasis.

Glasvegas will be forgotten about in 12 months. Fact

[3rdseal]

well...they did the choir thing just once for the bbc electric proms...;o)...but they actually do an acoustic version of "don´t look back in anger" which is absolutely amazing!

[LennonMorrissey]

Looking at how good their first album was, I think Glasvegas will be here for a very long time.

[LeBouefStinks]

Sorry; nothing in the future is a set fact apart from death. So, please don't act like you know this.

Also; Oasis aren't the mega rock band you make them out to be. Their old stuff was good; but now they're pure shite.

[danieloasisdaniel]

FUCK OFF

[mattyrocknroll]

Tomsmells.......Glasvegas better than Oasis?

Jog on son! Will Glasvegas ever sell out Wembley Stadium....3 nights?! Never. Tomsmells you are a fool!

[AUDIS8UWE]

that is correct!!!!!

[JealousGuy14]

But have u seen Oasis now? Still playing Wonderwall and Dont look back in anger....

[3rdseal]

nobody would pay much money on them just to see them playing "i hope i think i know" or "little james"....^^

but i get what you say - it´s truly embarassing to do big hits at a live show...;o)

[JealousGuy14]

haha yeah :D

[LeBouefStinks]

Since when does record sales make a band better than the other. Abba might have outsold Jimi Hendrix for all I know; it doesn't make Abba better.

[deadpassive]

Be careful when you make such claims.

Nobody would ever have predicted a grtty underground band like Nirvana would become one of the most important bands in rock history, for example.

[dunlaoghaire]

Like Oasis??? I just bought the glasvegas album and they sound nothing like oasis! For a start they're actually a good band... Oasis were/are absolutely shite. These guys have an honesty that oasis only ever blagged( and to good affect). But they sound nothing like eachother. Best Brittish band I've heard in years. They deserve big success!

[kallemydia]

this is good but the best scottish band is runrig

[tomsmells]

there is no comparing the two, oasis will churn out the same crap forever, glasvegas' first album is better than any of the shit oasis have come out with.

[haveguitarwilltravel]

wankaaaaaa

[PradaWilly]

I cant understand the Oasis comparisons, but I can understand a similarity in some respects of their sound to The Jesus & Mary Chain. And b.t.w. I like the simplistic drums. Glasvegas are quite good.

[barnsleydingle]

went to see them live this summer in leeds brill........

good to see a good band around not the puffy boy bands ....

[Jasonlibertine]

lmao!

ppl r tlkin about oasis drummers as if there good

evry oasis drummer

has bin an absolute bag of shite

at least glasvegas' drummer has got some character and originality?

[JasonRadley]

She got breasts.

[hlockheart]

Your point?

[richie1405]

they are shit hot cant wait to see them at t in the park a think if you are scottish you will like it that wee bit more cause you can relate to it and understand it more lol

[gianttaco12345]

I dont mind this band, but calling them the new Oasis? Cmon, they may be good, but not as near good as the Rock Gods of the Gallagher Brothers.

[paterc02]

i fucking hate tht drummer!shes pish! ....wjhy doesnt glasveags pull there head out ther arse's and stop being sooo depressing

[saaaahm]

And im Roy Orbison

[daviemccurdie]

Went to see them in Copenhagen on Monday.

That drummer is fucking atrocious. No rythm at all.

[supersonicmat12]

what a joke, better than oasis? dont make me laugh!gd band but thats like comparing jonas brothers to the beatles. respect they r pretty gd tho

[richymoore]

The difference is Oasis use real drummers, any twat or their granny could stand there and play the drums the way she does. Why not challenge yourself hen, buy a hi hat a ride and some crashes and see how awful you can make that sound. Glasvegas fuckin suck

[timothyleighton]

I play drums in a band and can't play for fucking toffee. But like Caroline I've got the balls to do it without worrying about what I can't do and get stuck in. Stand up drumming is fight. The drumming on this albums might be simple but it's fucking iconic.

It's the bit of the kit you don't play.

[scottishchap2008]

Glasvegas are the buisness, Oasis are a great band but Glasvegas remind me of growing up in the west of scotland where kids get murdered every weekend (flowers and football tops)the social workers when you were younger(geraldine) weekend dads (daddys gone) scrapping out on the streets (go square go)and so on, top band for managing to make brilliant songs about life in Scotland.

[doctorsandgods]

I like james Allan seems like a cool guy, hes ok in my books, hes ok in mine

[thraxed1]

Glasvegas are quality but comparing to Oasis? lol dont be silly...

[terraekka]

risteard7: They're better than Oasis and James has something that none of the Gallagher brothers have and that's his genuine and lovely personality! And his voice is 10 times better than The Gallaghers put together!!!

[osmark86]

the UK music industry is one big hype. enuff already.

[laurenhmfc]

if you dont like the band, its simple.. dont listen to them. to me there an influence. im scottish and proud. most scots have a good sense ae humor. so make fun of us.. we dont give a sh*t!

[risteard7]

compared to oasis ha ha.theryl never be another oasis.and these fools certainly wont

[aislingirish]

well many people would of said there'll never be another stone roses and low and behold oasis came along. now oasis are nowhere near as good as the stone roses but they r a great band none the less so why cant people stop slagging and give this band the respect they deserve cause they are a brilliant band. just saw them live in nyc and they are great.

[MKlucy93]

Fuck you safeness

[Safeness07]

bunch of twats, take those shades off NOW

[elwalsho]

like the song.i'm expecting good things from this band.

[fielding78]

[dawilli2]

mmmm.. def not already legends.

[wrigs75]
