Then how can you make that statement? :crazy:

i dont know...i was at school and i was bored..

My 2 Cents...
 

I just wanted to talk about how I feel about each group and/or which band is better. I just want to say before I go on my analysis that I think that Oasis and Blur's music appeals to me, but in different ways. Besides the fact that they're categorized as "Britpop" and that they both derive from The U.K., I don't see much in common musically or personally-wise.

We've all heard about it: The "battle" between Oasis and Blur. Believe it or not, it all started by their record labels. Back when Oasis was coming out w/ this 2nd CD [(What's The Story) Morning Glory ?] and Blur their 4th (Great Escape). Oasis' single "Roll with It" and Blur's single "Country House" were supposed to come out one week after the other, but the people over @ their labels found out about each other's release date and decided to release it the same day. When this happened, it not only started a "war" between Blur and Oasis, but increased it to include Northern England (working class) vs. Southern England (middle/upper class) aka Labour Party vs. Tory party. Apparently from what I read in NME, it got to the point that they held a live interview @ The BBC that night (August 15, 1995) w/ Damon Albarn who thought it was being blown out of proportion. It obviously escalated from then w/ quoting battles between them. Noel and Damon actually started out complimenting each other withholding enough to throw in how each respective bands' popularity is just a bit better than the other. By the time Oasis came out w/ their 3rd CD "Be Here Now," Liam was quoted as saying "I hope they all catch AIDS and die!"

Needless to say, I'm in agreement w/ Melody Maker when they stated that Blur and Oasis are like a 90's version of The Stones and The Beatles. They're so different, yet similar. Who do I like better? It's hard to imagine since I own every CD from both bands, but I suppose it would depend on my mood. When I'm in a bad mood, I'm more inclined to listen to Oasis; in a good mood to Blur. I like each band for different reasons, ya know? One thing I can do is tell you guys that when you're listening to tunes like There's No Other Way, Parklife, or Song 2, you're inclined to stand up, dance and swing your hands in the air. When you're listening to Live Forever, Champagne Supernova, or Stand By Me you feel like laying on your couch and wanting to hug your significant other.

Can someone tell what Blur were thinking more so Damon during the filming of the On Your Own music vid? I mean did he really think he was being cool or was he just joking around?

Is that the one where the drummer is playing a drum machine thingy in a manhole?
No idea.

Anyone else heard Oasis's new album? It's surprisingly...brilliant.

Yes and Damon is wearing that white LL Cool J hat and has gold rings and the camera is shoot from a downward angle like every rap video and it ends with this guy break dancing.

I think they were stoned too much to be great. Or they were playing drunk.
Just sounds that way to me.

I love that video. It's so silly.
