By coincidence I noticed Oasis Live By The Sea from 1995/6 is on Sky Arts next Thursday, from memorial a few of the b-sides are on it

Not a fan but I do like Look Back In Anger and Wonderwall. Voted Wonderwall because of the football song connection

Poll could have done with being multi-choice IMHO. Voted 'Live Forever' but could equally have multi-voted the quiet and beautiful 'Don't Go Away'



And EVERYTHING Late Period Oasis can just DO one :wave:

A pair of grade A cocks fronting the band but what a line up of songs.

Remember the hype as they launched onto the scene, ‘gonna be bigger than The Beatles’. blah blah. I really did not like these northern monkeys before I had even heard a song.

But tune after tune of epic proportions followed. Still a pair of cocks, but would love to see them live again.

My fav is Bring it on down

I feel like Go Let It Out isn't going to get the love it deserves. The b-sides are really good - Let's All Make Believe is an excellent little song.

Hundred Million Quid BONANZA just waiting to be picked up by the daft Gallagher Bros plus - hopefully! - Guigsy, Bonehead and that original bloke on drums, should they ever choose - and they WILL choose - to go down that route

Don't Look Back In Anger is, IMHO, iconic.

Honourable mentions for Champagne Supernova and Live Forever though.

Funny that the name of the bloke you've forgotten was in the band for longer than both Guigsy and Bonehead. Usually it's the bassist everyone forgets.

EDIT: Alan White is his name btw.

EDIT-2: I've just seen the 'original' bit. Ooops.

Really tough choice and, to be honest, if you asked me the same question each day for a week, you'd probably get seven different answers. In some ways there's almost no comparison between the early and late Oasis. They are so different, but still brilliant in equal measure. Love Wonderwall, Don't Look Back in Anger, Wonderwall and C&A, but I've gone with All Around The World. Not everyone's cup of tea, but I remember hearing it and thinking it was a great piece of music.

Special mention for Half The World Away, too. Tune!

My favourite song of theirs was F**kin' in the Bushes - an instrumental from the film Snatch.

Half The World Away is a nice song too.

Or they can go the ABBA route of not reuniting, picking up a load of artistic kudos for the trouble of sitting on their enormous pile of money, and then 30years later turning their songs into a jukebox musical that makes them even more money without having to do anything.

Presumably, since Mamma Mia had Pierce Brosnan in it, they'll get Daniel Craig to sing in the Oasis one.

Mancs just LOVE to reunite - mainly for financial reasons that avoid them having to take bit-parts on Corrie. Two words: Take. That.
