Just for my own clarification: "Oasis" is a running joke here, right?

[begin_within]

When people post about Oasis, they're joking about it, not being serious about it being the greatest band ever, are they?

[Fuzz]

1. No, they rule.

Why?

[SPKrazy]

2. Greatest Band Ever!

I'm Series111!!!1!

They are HUGH!!111!1!!




:rofl: :popcorn:

3. The hell are you talking about? Rock and roll GODS.

[Jamastiene]

4. Oasis?

You mean the band that has Liam and his brother the guitarist in it? The band that did "Wonderwall?" They are a great band, the New Beatles for this generation, incredibly talented songwriters. I like them, personally. I wouldn't say they are the greatest band in the world though. That would be the Ramones for me. :hi:

[Maine-ah]

11. no.

and people need to stop calling them the "New Beatles" because no way in hell will they ever compare to The Beatles. Sorry, ain't gonna happen.

[Jamastiene]

14. It already has happened.

I called them the New Beatles, so there. :P

[Omphaloskepsis]

5. Oasis == The Verve^2

Fuckin'A They Rule.

[Gold Metal Flake]

6. Oasis is a joke. That is the absolute truth.

[darkstar]

7. Oasis not a *complete* joke

but a joke here at DU indeed....

[Gold Metal Flake]

9. And a delightful source of playful snark.

I've grown to like the threads.

[darkstar]

10. Right-o

and I did indeed DL the 7+ minute version of Champagne Supernova in the last 3 months or so...

:hi:

[Jamastiene]

8. GASP... n/t

[leftofthedial]

12. No. Oasis is the greatest band ever.

Copycat threads and cat picture threads are running jokes here.

[necso]

13. Hard to tell.

At least in every case, that is.

[Broken_Hero]

15. Nope afraid not...

Oasis makes Cream, The Beatles, The Who, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin...look like pure amatuers....NG, you are the best, ever.

[begin_within]

16. I get it: some people here love Oasis, other people here make fun of them for loving Oasis.

[cwydro]

17. I think there are three of us

who are actual fans. Lol.

Though I do not consider them the greatest band ever.

Lo Zoccolo posts about them frequently.

[Arugula Latte]

20. Lieberman and Oasis -- LoZoccolo sure knows how to pick 'em!

;)

[cwydro]

21. I'm not going to touch that one....

:rofl:

[Ikonoklast]

18. Actually, Oasis is not just a running joke at DU

They are a joke everywhere.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

19. If they were running any more, they'd be Carl Lewis.

[KG]

22. yes, Oasis is a running joke.

[LoZoccolo]

23. Oasis is my favorite band, and I'm not alone in that.

They have been more popular than the Beatles since the 90s.

[democracyindanger]

24. They're a running joke everywhere.

[Guava Jelly]

25. "Whats the story morning glory" is really good album

The brothers are crazy though.
I wouldn't call them the greatest band ever.
that would be Green Day :popcorn:
