Oasis

They have a thread, you know...no need polluting this section




Oh, and you're wrong

No i'm not wrong;
I have the originals and the oasis tracks on my media player back to back!
Nearly very track OF EVERY ALBUM takes at least one instrument part from another song!

I'm actually not into oasis, but surely you can deconstruct the music of most rock bands and find stuff its similar to.

Yeah sure every one has done it a few times but Oasis have literally stolen 80% of all their material; NO JOKE!

[Izzy]

Where have u lot been for 12 years?

Hello - we know.

Oasis know, its deliberate - Dont look back in ager has the piano intro from 'Imagine', and there's a dozen more

and?

They are obsessed with the Beatles - Liam claims to be John Lennon reincarnated - its their way of doing a homage to bands they like

The amount of these threads we get - do people honestly think they are the first people in the world to notice?

[Acquiesce]

After much speculation Oasis announce the final track listing for their definitive collection Stop The Clocks.

Unlike most albums of this nature, Oasis have sat down and undertaken the almost impossible job of picking what they consider to be their finest moments ever. So Stop The Clock is imbued with the sort of wilfulness that has helped make Oasis the favourite band of millions of people worldwide and its running order will no doubt provoke equal parts adulation and bar discussions from the millions of Oasis fans worldwide. Could it ever be any other way? Oasis have been at the helm of the world's music scene for over ten years and, on 20th November 2006 the first ever Oasis retrospective will draw together the years of multi platinum albums, Number One singles and, unique to Oasis, instantly familiar B sides into one 18 track double album entitled Stop the Clocks.

So here it is. The tracks as chosen by the band themselves - the songs they believe encapsulate their remarkable career to date.

Rock n Roll Star
Some Might Say
Talk Tonight
Lyla
The Importance of Being Idle
Wonderwall
Slide Away
Cigarettes & Alcohol
The Masterplan
Live Forever
Acquiesce
Supersonic
Half The World Away
Go Let It Out
Songbird
Morning Glory
Champagne Supernova
Don't Look Back In Anger

There 90s albums are just great, they were a great band, especially the first 2 albums. Great songs, sounded great live (however they just stood there like they do now lol which is boring)

i can see why they were so big, i just think they blew it by getting too big headed early on.

Oasis - main Road 1996 - Manchester. probbaly their best gig ever. Oasis at their very, very best. Watch that video. it's classic

Terrible, just terrible

Might as well have been assembled by someone who hates the band, the awful Layla and Talk Tonight instead of D'ya know what i mean and All around the world

Laughable

Talk tonight is an awesome tune, D'ya know what i mean and All around the world aren't anything special

[Acquiesce]

I think the tracklisting is pretty good, but they did leave some notable songs out. I would have included D'You Know What I Mean, Whatever, Don't Go Away,  Where Did It All Go Wrong, The Hindu Times, and Roll With It. I think All Around The World is medicore but it would have made sense to include that, too. I love Talk Tonight (one of my fave  Oasis tunes) but I don't know how that and Half The World Away made it before any of the songs I mentioned. It's a 2 disc set so its disappointing they didn't add more songs.

[2NaFish]

i'm not gonna complain. my list would've probably seen half the songs listed replaced but i'm not bothered. if the band can honestly say this is what they want to have on their definitive collection then fair play to them.

[Mattattack]

I'm just pissed off that "Stop the Clocks" and "The Boy with the Blues" aren't on here. I won't be buying this album now as I already have everything on it. They should have at least thrown on their cover of "My Generation". I think Noel put this tracklisting together to hurt sales for Sony. How can they have a best of without "D'Ya Know What I Mean". I'm so pissed off about this compilation. Axl really needs to release Chinese Democracy soon.

my thoughts exactly - the lack of any new material renders this release pointless, other than to end a dispute with the label....

[Acquiesce]

Yeah, I don't get why Oasis didn't include Stop the Clocks on the cd titled Stop The Clocks. Very disappointing.

[lennonisgod]

That does fucking suck. The only new thing on this CD will be a re-recorded version of Acquiesce, which to me isn't worth the money.  The whole idea of a greatest hits CD from Oasis pisses me off because I know that Noel NEVER wanted to release a GH until the bad was DONE.  He hates how bands sometimes have like 3 or more greatest hits albums. But of course Sony made him eat his words on that one and he has no choice now.  BTW, while we're on this Oasis topic, has anyone seen the movie 'Goal'??  Oasis did a few songs for this soundtrack and a couple of those were new mixes of Morning Glory and Cast No Shadow. The 'New' exclusive song to the soundtrack was 'Who Put the Weight of the World on My Shoulders', which I enjoy and if anyone needs a copy of it, PM me.  It's a Noel song by the way for those that don't have it (I know Izzy, you don't like Noel songs, or have they grown on you yet?).   ANYWAY, back to my reason for asking the question, I just saw the movie at the store on DVD and I didn't realize that it was that major of a release and just wondered if it was any good?? So if anyone here has seen it, let me know what you thought if you don't mind. Thanks.

noel's already made money from  other band's music; why not make more?

There is supposed to be a limited edition DVD with the GH so maybe that will make it worth it.  I wonder if the fact that Noel doesn't want to release a GH is the reason why he didn't include any new songs. I don't know why he chose Stop the Clocks as the title though when he knows the fans would be looking for that sonbg.

Nah - Noel songs havent grown on me

Its Liam's delivery that makes the songs

Though Liam has lost his decent voice judging by DBTT...but if Axl can get it back then.....maybe....definetly maybe.....
