atom heart mother Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 so what if the songs are too long? it still fuckign delivers.Do You Know I mean?My Big MouthMagic pieStand By MeI hope I Think I KnowThe girl In The Dirty ShirtFade In OutDont Go AwayBe Here nowAll Around The WorldIts Getting Better Man!all great songs, with some of the best guitar work of the 90's, its definitely overblown as was the cocaine fuelled lifestyle of Liam and Noel Gallagher, however I cant help but admire the fact that there was so much expectation on oasis to deliver the greatest album of all time, people actually thought it was the greatest album, the whole world was oasis mad, people became blinded by the euphoria and the massiveness of Oasis as Be Here now reached number two in the US, and sold 1 million albums in 1 week in the UK, yet when all the hype died down and oasis stopped travelling in helicopters, everyone hated this album and after the 1998 Masterplan release, marked the end of Oasis reign' as the biggest band in the world.you're thoughts?

Alan Niveen Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 (edited) I don't know. I stopped listening to Oasis after Morning Glory...The first album sounds a bit dated now... Edited April 10, 2006 by Alan Niveen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Niveen Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 Be Here now reached number two in the US,Oasis was owned by P-Diddy ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderstruck Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 I love all their albums. Be Here Now is no exception. The Gallagher brothers have admitted they could could have made it better but they were too strung out on drugs.It was alot of high expectations on Noel's shoulders, seeing as Liam was too busy being a bad bay, and Bonehead and Guisey weren't even bothered to have any input. So for the expectations, its a brilliant album Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marky Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 oasis are outstanding. every album is one that stays in your head. it makes you adopt a swagger as you walk.i was lucky enough to see them live in nottingham in february. absoulutely mindblowing. i cant see how the albums from be here now to heathen chemistry are slated. they are better than definately maybe and whats the story!rock on oasis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightrain_Kid Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Its overblown, too many shite songs and them songs are far too long anyway, i think its like over 70 minutes long ffs and oasis are nowhere near the best musicians in the world so it just doesnt work, along with standing on the shoulder of giants its my least fav oasis album. with the exception of my big mouth, i hope i think i know and the girl in the dirty shirt im not too keen on any of the tracks anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SOLGER Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 This album rocks. Its loud its cocaine fuled its their last great rock n roll album in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlasgowGnR Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 it was so so some great songs , some really bad songs they should have given up after that album though cos there shit now they were once great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimo85 Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Bottom line is Oasis have produced three classic albums, Definately Maybe, Morning Glory and Masterplan. The first two are the obvious ones but Masterplan is flawless IMO. Definately Maybe was voted as the best British album ever in a Sun poll last year, and Morning Glory was at 4 if I remember rightly. Not bad track record really. And the best concert I have ever been to is Oasis live in Manchester. Didnt stop jumpin and singing for hours. Amazing. Hats off to the boys Grimo.

LA_0013 Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 I love Definitely Maybe and WTSMG, the album full of B-Sides (The Masterplan?) is also amazing.However things went downhill for a while. Be Here Now had some great points (My Big Mouth, Dont Go Away) but also some forgettable moments. Standing on the Shoulders of Giants is mediocre, and the other one with Go Let it Out is garbage IMO (with the exception of Songbird...).Dont Believe The Truth is far better with some great tunes.........LAA tad off topic I know, but its great to see 'Our Kid' Liam back in shape and off the lager.........http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,4-2006160389,00.htmlLA rock2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCGNR Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 I stopped really listening to them for awhile, but " Don't belive the Truth " is one of the better albums I've heard in awhile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top Jimmy Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 This album did not deliver, it did nto live up to Definalty Maybe or Whats the Story at all, and that makes me mad. They should have spent more time and not rushed it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderstruck Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Everyone on here seems to dislike Heathen Chemistry, but I love it.Doesn't anybody else like Born on a Different Cloud? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddergascar Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Heathen Chemistry seemed so much like oasis by the numbers to me.Oasis were really creative back in the Definately Maybe/What's The Story era. My friend who's a huge Oasis fan says that there are B sides from that era better than anything on Be Here Now. I really wish they'd do some sort of compilation of them.
