@ThommyTiernan : 'Whatever' came out December 1994, Oasis and Blur's rivalry started in the summer of 1995, when Blur and their management chose to push the release 'Country House' back so that it would come out on the same day as 'Roll With It' by Oasis.
I Laughed hard at 2:49 - 2:57, when Noel was "waving" the flower HAHA
Also laughed at the beginning, when Liam is shaking the flowers and Noel is doing something like "we're FU**ING number one"...Wait, why there were flowers on the stage ? LOL
Btw, the video is epic, the song is epic, the band is epic...Gotta miss a lot these guys :/
I grew up with this band and their attitude (which I tried soooo hard to copy) allowed me to kiss so many girls cos they thought i was going to be like liam...I'm a builder now. Nevermind they still sound brilliant.
oasis are a big part of my life, my fav band ever, noel is kinda my idol, i've seen almost everything from them, thousands of hours devoted to oasis in some way, and this is the first time ever i see them playing a song live that actually sounds like the original
Don't pin all the blame on Oasis mate, it was Blur who had links with the NME so pushed single release back, both hoping to annihilate Oasis in procees.
Damon never, ever hated Oasis, I'm sure the feelings weren't shared though, Oasis weren't exactly the most professional group of people, both are true rockstars though, although I must admit I prefer Blur
I prefer Oasis, but apparantly Damon he likes Liam but not Noel, I read an interview where he said they ran in to eachother in camden and had good chat recently.
When Oasis performed the song "Whatever" on Top of the Pops, they mimed and one of the cellists from the symphony orchestra was replaced by Arthurs. Towards the end of the song, he started using the bow to conduct.
This video tells a lot. Damon Albarn of Blur and Gorillaz introduces Oasis while Noel flips him and Liam shakes a sunflower. Meanwhile, the entire band is just syncing to the music, and Bonehead is having a hard time immitating he's playing the Cello. After that he just takes the bow and starts conducting.
I really like moments like these in Oasis history, as I like the band not just for their music, but their story, and the path of fame.
damon had no problem with oasis. he said they were a great band a number of times. but like the wankers oasis are they had to start acting the "hard-men" and complete wankers. if i was albarn i would have knocked liam out. he's a scrawney little pussy that gives it all from behind a bouncer. i didnt see him say anything to damon here because he would have got his head kicked in. he gives him the fingers behind his back. real "hard" eh. fucking pussy
nah its because he's a pussy. remember in canada or america last year a guy from the crowd pushed noel, and then liam jumped a mile and then tried to hit him when two bouncers were holding him back. liam and noel are all talk and no action. i hear all these stories but have never heard of them throwing a punch. damons bigger and has a better build. he would knock the shit out of both
remember that celebrity football match liam squared up to damon but damon then squared up to him and got in his face. liam didnt touch him. would have got beat black and blue
On the other hand. After Noel said he didn't care about the Blur-Oasis thing anymore Damon was the one who said that he would never let the 'rivalry' go.
Plu HE was teh one that wanted to move up the release of their country house single to compete with the Oasis single to foster a sense of competition.
Don't tell me that Damon had nothing to do with the tensions between them.
no he said he would could forgive noel for the completely uncalled for things he said like he wished he dies of aids.
damon has said on several occassions he was embarrassed now looking back on the whole rivalry. they dont even play coutry house anymore. blur were the one's who moved away for the rivalry first when they went away for 2 years and came back with a completly revamped sound
I read the new report...and if saying that you won't put a mid-90's squabble behind you isn't living the past I don't know what is. And he didn't mention a thing about the AIDS comment. I doubt he really thinks about that...it was just the off-the-cuff comment of a guy on coke...
And the only reason that Blur moved away was 'cause shortly after that Morning Glory came out and there was no way that they could compete with those numbers. Oasis were in a different league of fame after that.
People were always told to mime on Top of the Pops, that's just the way the show was. Many of the outspoken non-corporate bands never took it seriously though.
When Oasis performed the song for Top of the Pops, they mimed and one of the cello players from the string ensemble was replaced by Bonehead, who clearly had no idea how the instrument was supposed to be played. The song was introduced by Damon Albarn of Blur who would later famously feud with Oasis. As Albarn introduced the song, the Gallagher brothers made hand gestures behind him, which only served to heighten the feud between the bands.[1]
totp has always been playback. look it up in wikipedia, it says what artists did during their perfomances, like oasis switching roles in roll with it and liam making it clear that he's not singing in lyla.
I don't know why oasis always fooled damon albarn and blur. I've seen some middle 90's years interview where he reclaims his love for the mancunians and their music instead noel during the brit battle said to "the observer" that he should had preferred that damon should catch the AIDS.....
I feel so bad for Damon(of Blur). He genuinely respected Oasis at that point and they returned no love. I know that blur essentially started the whole "singles battle" nonsense but at least they gave oasis their respect initially. I love oasis but the whole anamosity thing between those two bands is unfortunate.
