    Is there any chance you could do something on Alan White? As a drummer, I think he is sadly overlooked which I think is a crying shame. When I picked up my sticks at age 15, he was the one I watched so my style is indebted to him.

      I’m the same. I’m a big fan of both. If I was on Desert Island Discs, they’d both at least be on my shortlist. But I’m a bit younger than them, from near where Oasis are from, so identified with them, and went to the same rehab that Robbie wrote ‘Angels’ (which Noel said he wished he’d written, remember). There are angels in the main entrance hall in the corners and some church people who came every week told me he spent a lot of time in there lying on the benches, as did I. There’s a pond with fish in too.
      Guess my taste is quite eclectic as I don’t mind a bit of Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, too. Why close yourself off to beauty in this world, however it comes, and from who?

    You missed a key scene in the feud. After Robbie Williams sent a wreath to The Sun newspaper, reporters were waiting at the airport for Liam to land to get his reaction, since he had been out of the country at the time. It was here that Liam said he was going to batter Robbie Williams. It was this threat that then prompted Robbie's boxing match idea at the BRITS 2000. So, Robbie didn't just come out of nowhere with the idea of fighting Liam. 😊I looked for footage of the airport interview with Liam but couldn't find it, so maybe it never happened, though I do remember it fairly well (Mandela Effect?). Anyway, thanks for the video. Great fun, as usual. 👍

      I think Robbie has the better ear when it comes to Singles (most his first 3/4 albums, you take the 3 or 4 big hit singles off them, and its mostly rubbish filler stuff).... Oasis it was a case of albums filled with stadium anthems, some of which maybe don;t translate as good as singles.

    Robbie has said he's bisexual repeatedly although he always adds "but I'd not actually have sex with a man" at the end of it, but he's admitted multiple times to being attracted to men and being "half homosexual". If he was born in a different time, he'd probably just be an out bisexual but clearly he feels some sort of shame about it.

    Like most of the feuds surrounding Oasis, it was media fuelled and media driven. But what Robbie did was play them at their own game for his own fame. Unfortunately for Oasis, just as they were turning on him he was ascending to a pop stardom, one that hasn’t been comparable in the Uk since imo. He really was huge for about three years or so. Angels probably got as much, if not more air play than Wonderwall during those peak years. Towards the mid 2000’s it just got a bit sad, seeing them pop up in celebrity gossip columns, or attending the Brit awards that had lost any edge that it might have had in the mid 90’s, and so no one cared. I think Liam has mellowed out more and that helps. But so does knowing that your rivalry antics won’t get the press it once did anymore

    • @clark82

      I would agree, his first two albums kind of slid under the radar (especially his first) and probably most his biggest hits are on those two (especially his first album, which often gets over looked), but there was probably a period from 1999-2002 after he had found his feet as a solo artist where a Robbie album was getting more hype in the build up to its release than a Oasis album was.... I think Noel probably took a shine to Robbie a lot more than he let on, but like a lot of these guys over the year, once that shine wore off, he was fast to throw them under the bus, and as usual, used Liam as his mouth piece (this is one thing I have noticed since the split.... it used to be Liam that would come out with the "controversial" comments, and Noel would sweep in and look like he was the level headed one.... but since the break up, Liam has completely mellowed, and Noel has become something of the "bitter" one)

    I think the problem Robbie has always had is that Oasis were organic and true to themselves from day one, becoming massively popular and influential in the process. He was from Take That, a manufactured boy band who targeted their music at teenage girls. Fake, in music terms. It brought him money and fame, but was never going to be accepted by musical purists, let alone influence the musical world any more than a rain drop in an ocean. When he realised he was never going to be truly accepted musically, he fell back on what he knew - a cheeky-chappy showman act producing pop dross, still aimed at teenage girls. That's why his comments at 20:08 are so telling; despite overhauling Oasis in the number of people buying his records or turning up at his shows, he was still no closer to being accepted as a bona fide musician in the same league as Oasis, and that really hurt him. Love them or hate them, Oasis will go down as one of Britain's biggest, most influential bands, the voice of a generation despite breaking up years ago. When Williams hangs up the mic - whenever it is - he'll just be replaced by another manufactured, family-friendly pop star and largely forgotten within a few years.
    Great video, btw.

      Wouldn't dare say that about RW. IMO he is as talented as the Gallagher bros. Love to listen his songs now and then, and even Noel underlines that RW has some great tunes like 'Angels'. Must be an unpopular opinion, yet it's my own.

    JAMES - keep up the fine work - I've requested a few times but I appreciate you may not have the info...but you do seem to know a lot and have great sources. I'm fascinated in any serious stalkers or incidents with crazed fans the brothers had to deal with down the years. I've never heard the press or brothers themselves broach it - I remember reading of an obsessive fan breaking into Noel's house in the early naughts when he was away on tour, and Meg and his then baby Anais being there alone...other than that, there's not much else to go on...they MUST have had loons who showed up thinking they were Liam's wife or something...no restraining orders?? Unless their security teams were tip top it seems unlikely there were so few documented incidents with nutty fans...other than just random interactions on tour, but nothing out of the ordinary. Anyways, great channel - any insights welcome...

    I honestly didn't know that this rivalry was much longer-lasting and spiteful than the comparably short feud with Blur, but it seems logical that it was based on Liam and Robbie having a go at each other due to their relationship with Nicole, and Noel happily joining in. Jealousy is a powerful feeling that brings out the worst behaviour in us. Amplify that with lots of cocaine, fame, money, ego and tabloid media frenzy and you've got an explosion coming.

    • @clark82

      The Blur thing was mostly for the media.... as Bonehead has said in interviews since, they would regularly meet in the pub for a pint, while the front of the newspapers talked about how they can not be left alone in a room without a fight breaking out.... I think after that feud had fizzled out in 1997, Robbie was the next "target" for them as his star was on the rise, and (arguably) between 1999 and 2002, a Robbie Williams album was probably more hotly anticipated than a Oasis album was (the feud pretty much died out after Oasis had got back on their feet, and Robbie's career started to flounder after Escapology).... I think major difference between Robbie and Blur was that he actually played the game just as much as Oasis did (for all the Oasis v Blur rivalry, it was always pretty one way with Blur never really bringing themselves down to that level).

    For a band whose audience were aimed at teenage girls Take That weren't bad. Gary Barlow played piano and wrote their songs. And those songs had actual words. I'm not a fan of them but they were geniuses compared to the rubbish that's in the charts right now. Now it takes about 20 songwriters to come up with a load of crap with the same few words repeated over and over for three minutes.

Also, Liam for his albums relies on a team of 4 or 5 song writers to help him (Liam relies very heavily on Greg Kurstin and Andrew Wyatt as his song writing partners)

    Robbie’s album Escapology is phenomenal, a masterpiece in Pop Rock I’d say. There are other great songs in his other albums but Escapology stands out. He wrote and co-wrote all songs with Guy Chambers, and his performance at Knebworth is kick ass. Folks may not like him as an individual but to (completely) dismiss his talent as a singer songwriter is silly to say the least.

      @@startracker5895 I love Oasis a lot more than the Robster and their digs at him were pretty funny to me but yeah they got fed up of him hanging around so went indifferent then got jealous that he was becoming successful (probably more so with them having given him more credibility in the indie / Brit pop arena , contacts ie Owen Morris , Tim abbot, music reporters like Paul marthur etc ) as they were dimming a bit and massively laid into him publicly for his weight issues etc. On top of that Liam was now dating his ex that aborted his (Robbie’s) child. Liam instigated the fight before the Brit awards by saying that he would break Robbie’s nose following the wreath he sent to the sun. I would assume the reason Robbie said he wanted to shag Liam is because when asked why he doesn’t like him etc his only reason is for the Nicole thing and them berating him. Liam is seen as much more as an alpha male than Robbie who is aware that a lot of people think he is gay so it’s like people like Liam wanna mock me for being seemingly gay it’s more funny right now to not defend that but say I wanna have sex with him. Robbie always loved oasis and Liam and you can tell really he just wanted to be accepted by them again. If he was accepted by them he knows he would also be discredited less by the public / oasis fans who copied their insults , particularly the ‘fat dancer’ which has stuck for years. When Liam threatened to break his nose I think Robbie just thought well I know if I put you up for a televised fight I know you’ll publicly admit that that’s not gonna happen and if we do fight I’m gonna properly train and likely kick your arse. It’s also an opportunity to get in the papers and get lots of attention , which of course they did. I think they all had a love/ hate relationship with the press and that was him loving some attention whoring along the way.
