The "oasis was huge back in the day" meme needs to die.
they never had more than one hit in America and three in the UK they never played a concert to 250,000 people. they were never front page news. they never broke any sales records. nobody ever liked or cared about them.
im in the US and growing up i heard the name "Oasis" brought up fairly often. i didn't hear/associate them with their shit till recently so i always assumed they were some 80s synthpop band.
Hudson Hill
On the alternative chart maybe, but what about the hot 100
Andrew Hernandez
Wtf you never heard wonderwall aka their only hit?
Christian Carter
Nice backpedaling
Benjamin Long
"Alternative" doesn't count as a hit, I'm talking about in the mainstream
Cooper Richardson
Which is backpedaling because that isn't mentioned in OP.
Also, they've had three in the Hot 100, to answer your question.
Kevin Walker
i did but i knew them by "that band with the annoying nasally vocals"
Christian Gomez
this. And they had more on just radio because there wasn't a physical single released to allow it to chart on the Hot 100
Hunter Gomez
okay?
Luis Long
Literally one of the best selling bands of all time
John Green
>three in the UK You mean 26.
Ryan Martinez
Hahahaha nice try
Connor Adams
this. Not to mention that a bunch of songs off the first two albums that weren't singles are engrained in the public conscienceness anyway
Isaiah Roberts
Talking to yourself again?

>but what about the hot 100 A ^ "Live Forever" was deemed ineligible to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 due to its lack of an American physical single release, but peaked at number 39 on the Hot 100 Airplay chart.[5] B ^ "Champagne Supernova" was deemed ineligible to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 due to its lack of an American physical single release, but peaked at number 20 on the Hot 100 Airplay chart.[5] C ^ "D'You Know What I Mean?" was deemed ineligible to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 due to its lack of an American physical single release, but peaked at number 49 on the Hot 100 Airplay chart.[5] D ^ "Don't Go Away" was deemed ineligible to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 due to its lack of an American physical single release, but peaked at number 35 on the Hot 100 Airplay chart.[5] E ^ "Lyla" did not enter the Billboard Hot 100, but peaked at number eight on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart, which acts as a 25-song extension to the Hot 100.[141] F ^ "Falling Down" did not enter the Billboard Hot 100, but peaked at number six on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart, which acts as a 25-song extension to the Hot 100.[141]

This seems like an usa/uk thread but i wanted to say that in Chile they were huge
William Green
They were huge in 1995-1997 in the US. My parents love them and they were around back then and remember it vividly
Asher Watson

Jack Evans

Robert Watson

Aiden Gutierrez
Cred Forums is full of twats that grew up listening to their shitty music.
Eli Butler
Not much to say. My dad has all the albums and my mom loves champagne supernova and they remember them being called the "next Beatles" in the 90s. They thought the gallaghers were assholes but they liked the music.

Chase Johnson
Dude I love a lot british music even meme musicians like blur, pulp, the stone roses and even some coldplay. But the thing with oasis just shows they are "definitely" shit. They never had something geniune to say really.
