No, I'm not. The reason their music flopped in the US is because THEY SUCK.

 

I don't quite understand your point. Your opinion is that Oasis sucks. The 49 million records sold says otherwise. Someone likes them. It isn't you. And?

It's like posting in a thread about what a company driver would expect from dispatch. But your reply is, "I wouldn't know, I'm an O/O." :?

 

According to Wikipedia, the Macarena sold 110 million copies as of 1997, and was the #1 song for 14 weeks straight. It still sucked. Just sayin'. :wink:

 

One hit wonder. Just sayin'. :wink:

 

That one hit wonder sold over twice the amount of albums that Oasis did, and yet they are of no relevance. How many hits they had is irrelevant.

 

Well, number of hits would infer longevity, thus popularity not tied to a single moment in time. There are tons of one hit wonders with large sales numbers, and they are mostly stains on music history. 8)

 

I wish Oasis still had some radio airplay here in the states. Though I don't care much for what that jackazz had to say, their music is d&mn good. And, yeah, I know it's Beatles knockoffs, but name me a band that hasn't been influenced by something that came before? Anyone?

 

Einstürzende Neubauten. Just sayin'. :wink:

 

It's all been done before to one degree or another. I'm no stranger to eclectic music, believe me, but it's all been influenced by something in the past. Regardless, I liked Oasis back when their stuff was on American radio. Doesn't change the fact that the Gallagher bros. are boneheads and what the lead idiot said is outrageous, despite my loathing of Blair/Bush and their murdering of our sons and daughters for oil. Just sayin'. :roll:

 

Sex Pistols.... Sacriston colliery brass band...... Errrmmmm... I,m stuck now :roll: :lol: :lol:
