Jaysay, I didn't say that everybody liked Oasis and bought one of their records. I merely stated the fact that Oasis were the biggest band of their generation when they reached their peak popularity circa 1996. I only stated this to clear up what was said by the interviewee in the BBC4 programme, as several posters here wildly (perhaps intentionally) misinterpreted it.
People will hear what they want to hear and rear what they want to read, I suppose. This is shown most evidently in the posters on this thread using the Noel Gallagher interview on BBC4 to push forward their agenda on the issue of drugs, manipulating the words of the interviewee. Very strange behaviour.
I only posted to try and point posters towards what was actually said in the interview but it seems there is little hope of success.
Play nice, children.
