Definitely…Maybe NOT!

Filed under: Anglophilia

macca__opt1.jpg

Holy Champagne Supernova!

Oasis have trumped The Beatles in a new UK album poll by Q magazine.

The 11,000 people surveyed ranked Oasis' Definitely Maybe numero uno and (What's the Story) Morning Glory number two.

The Beatles' Revolver came in at… #4?

Should we let these poll results be?

It's just a tad ironic that Oasis has cited The Beatles as one of their may-jah musical influences.

So if it wasn't for The Beatles….

But, is Oasis really better???

They've been shite lately!

    Any band is better than the fucking Beatles. Especially the Stones.

    oasis is my favorite band of all time!!!
    but, i think the beatles are a better band, of course. it's the beatles!
    however, just b/c they ranked a certain CD over another doesn't mean they think the band is better, right? just the CD.

    if the poll was "what's the best british band?" - i'm certain the beatles would take the top spot, with oasis somewhere in the top 5.

    Oasis don't got shit on the Beatles.
    The Beatles revolutionized pop music as we know it.
    Oasis had 2 or 3 good songs, fought on stage a little bit, and went back into hiding.
    Granted Champagne Supernova is an amazing song.. but better than the Beatles' 'Revolver'? One of the best albums of all time?
    Give me a break.

    Their last album was pretty good! Not as good as their old work I think but I really liked it, great songs! We shouldn't compare though, The Beatles and Oasis are way too different!

    Oasis have always been influenced by the Beatles…they're both completely kick-ass bands, but the beatles are more timeless i'd say. It doesn't matter what age you are, everyone loves the beatles. Without them we'd be no where.

  21. lala says – reply to this
    21

    HELL NO they're not better! They're good yes, but not better. The Beatles are LEGENDS and that will always trump anything else.
    Polls aren't always reliable anyways. Especially one of only 11,000 people. Looks like they didn't poll anyone over 16!!!!

    BANANA FLAVORED FANTA IS OBVIOUSLY A MORON… SORRY THAT IS HARSH, BUT LENNON/MCARTNEY ARE SOME OF THE BEST COMPOSERS OF THE 20TH CENTURY.

    BUT

    OASIS IS DEFINITELY NOT BETTER THAN THE BEATLES…

    COMPARE ANY STUPID OASIS SONG TO ACROSS THE UNIVERSE, OR TAXMAN, OR A DAY IN THE LIFE, OR HAPPINESS IS A WARM GUN…

    PUHLEASE!!!

    Hey Perez…you have no right to comment on music. You like shitty bands like that shit-fest Fall Out Boy, etc. Your taste in music like your taste for cock is disgusting.

    Shut-up Fatty and post what you know about.

    Oasis is obviously not better than The Beatles, but they're back on a good phase lately. They're not shite, their last album is my favourite Oasis album, but people just didn't paid much attention to it.

  56. Listen2GoodMusic says – reply to this
    56

    Oasis has blatantly copied the Beatles from the beginning… the melodies, the glasses, the haircuts… The Beatles turned out multiple albums a year, sometimes creating/recording a song in one day. And those songs are now classics! The Beatles recorded for 8 years and left a WORLD WIDE impact… Oasis has been recording for 17 and although they have had success, in that time, they have not come close to being as inlfuential. Revolver had Eleanor Rigby, Yellow Submarine, Good Day Sunshine, Got to Get You into My Life, etc. C'mon, Please bitches!

  57. Jennifer says – reply to this
    57

    Oh, please, The Beatles are so much better than those whiny twats Oasis anyday.
    The Stones are marvelous, too. But even they were influenced by the Beatles in their heyday.

    I love the Brits, but they are way off on this one.

  58. CM says – reply to this
    58

    um.. hardly. Just because Oasis is more trendy *now*, doesn't mean their music is better. I'd like to see this poll done in 20 years and see which one comes out on top. There's a reason the Beatles have remained popular after all these years.

  59. ann says – reply to this

    It's a bloody outrage is what it is.
    The Beatles kick ANY bands ass ANY day of the week.
    … The poll was obviously rigged.

    Listen-Oasis hasn't put out a decent song in 10 years, but the cold facts are that these poles are being answered by a much younger generation. The Beatles are kings, but it's the kids voting, not the parents(who, if they were worth their salt, would have taught their babies where ALL of today's bands get their flavor!) BEATLES FOREVER!

    Not only are the people who voted idiots but for Sergent Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band is far an away the greatest rock album ever made.

  63. Wonderwall says – reply to this
    63

    Oasis produced two of the best albums ever made. However, that's all they had in 'em was those first two madly brilliant albums. Everything they did after that has sucked.

    As for the whiny bitch who accused then of outright plaigarism from the Beatles, show us a side by side example of what exactly Oasis ripped off from the Beatles. I seriously want to know. Influenced, yes, no doubt. But directly ripping off the Beatles? Um, no,but I'm willing to hear the alleged rip-off.

    I was in London when "Wonderwall" Every cafe, shop, restaurant that song was playing. I was in a cyber cafe that played it several times in row. Americans don't understand the impact this band had in their own country.

    I highly, highly doubt that Paul McCartney cares about how "Revolver" ranked in some poll, and thusly no Beatles fan should care, either.

    Don't forget this is the same country polled that thought that Winston Churchill was made up, or fantasy- like a cartoon character.
    Incredible.

  67. WTF? says – reply to this
    67

    OK, Oasis had a couple of hits, which hardly receive airplay at all anymore. The Beatles are still being played nearly 40 years since the breakup. You do the math.
    While everyone's entitled to their own taste in music, saying The Beatles suck, etc, is just lame. The Beatles music will continue to stand the test of time-while Oasis…
    Britain has always had questionable taste where polls and popular music are concerned. Give it no credence. The land of bad smiles missed badly on this one.
