Oasis means so much to so many people. It's a little bit like a religion - you either get it or you don't. If you don't feel ten feet tall when you hear the guitar solo to Supersonic or Live Forever then you won't understand the sheer joy that Oasis brings to their fans.
Take a look at the below video for an example. That was shot a few months before Oasis broke up, 14 years after the song being played was released. The fans there aren't all in their late 20s/30s, there was a new generation of fans that came through around 2005. Brothers had passed down records, kids hearing Lyla and The Importance of Being Idle looking back to see what the early fuss was about, and they all subsequently subscribed to the noise & confusion.
In my opinion, the passing down of Oasis music will always happen as the music is timeless - written about universal themes such as peace, love, good times and bad. But then, I'm biased.  |
Can't really comment really on most of Oasis stuff Shaker, as I just didn't like them, as you say its a choice thing. A bit like Elvis Presley, only ever bought 1 of his records that was Jail House Rock, just wasn't my cup of tea
