- Countless people have called for an Oasis reunion since the band collapsed in 2009, so why isn't it happening... and is there hope that it might?

When I was younger, I wished for a reunion. Now I'm older, I realize they're better on their own
I agree
Nah I still want a temporary reunion. Few big shows and a new record, then they go their separate ways again.
Really? Someone who knows the proper uses of there?! Unreal.

Man I'm loving Liam's solo stuff lately, I'm honestly not too worried if Oasis do get back together. It might be best to leave well enough alone, they achieved monumental things. Why overstay your welcome? Now we get two great bands releasing music instead of one, Liam and Noel's. However, I do hope for both Liam's and Noel's sake they one day fix things though and become brothers again. That being said I would still be excited if they did decide to give it another go, especially now Liam's voice sounds great again.
My sentiments exactly, you wrote that well. They're both doing great as "solo" artists, so the best thing would be to just let them both do their own thing as far as music goes.
I feel like Liam's new stuff suits him more. He's not the same singer as when he was 20 years old his voice has changed. His new stuff is great and he's pulling it off
I agree 100% with this Parfitt95, best to leave well enough alone. Based on what James talks about in this video it is clear any reunion attempt would produce nothing but disappointment and disaster. Noel as usual is right, just let it go. They have made one of the most significant contributions to rock ever just be happy with it and move on.
I don't think they will reform but if at some point they get back onto speaking terms again and being brothers, even if not massively, maybe a one off gig at some point may happen.
Agreed!
Not gonna happen. At this point it shouldn’t happen. Appreciate it for what it was…A brilliant moment in time.
I wholeheartedly agree....🤘
"There is nothing to miss. The whole thing was fun. One should not be sad that it is over.....but just glad that it once was." - Joe Zawinul on the passing of Jaco Pastorius
That's how i feel about Oasis.
either Noel sells the rights to Oasis and retires on a super yacht somewhere or the smell of money for a last tour brings Noel around
it could,if both grew up a bit.
They should just stay well away from each other - they’ve done enough. You can choose your friends etc
This is such a fantastic retrospective encompassing the entirety of Oasis and their ups and downs. Excellent job man. 40+ mins....This flew by so quickly!
It’s pretty simple. Me and my brother were both raised in a very abusive household. VERY ABUSIVE!!! We have always loved each other and would do many things together, but the truth is that each others presence would constantly remind us of our trauma and as we got older this became a major issue. We would fight over the most mundane shit, until one day, we blew up, said terrible things and it came to blows. We didn’t talk for 6 years. Finally, both of our wives got us together and demanded we get therapy. It took another 4 years before we could be comfortable around each other. I was eldest and dealt with the majority of our father’s abuse, but both of us suffered many terrible things. We are now on good terms, spend lots of time together and our families do many activities together. We aren’t rock stars or people in the news on a mass scale, yet it still effected our relationship. These guys need intensive therapy and I’m not sure either will ever admit it.
I can almost guarantee they won’t admit it. They are both incredibly stubborn.
Noel is stubborn/determined, and it's that stubbornness/determination that made Oasis, it's that stubbornness/determination that got him off drugs and it's that stubbornness/determination that will never let Oasis reform.
When he puts his mind to something, he does it. He's a pretty Randian figure
He also admires Paul Weller and Morrissey, two men who only look forward with their music. Liam and Noel might make amends, but I'd be shocked if Noel got Oasis back together
There’s also Liam being someone so dark and monstrous in his own mind he would insult his own niece, in order to insult his brother.
For £100m let’s see how stubborn Noel is
Rand is one of my fav writers, though this is the first time I see her name as in a positive sentence. It really motivated me. You are right about Noel.
It's poetic it's about my fav musician of all time!!! The Chief is The Chief!
@@MarlboroughBlenheim1 lmao mate he doesn't need the cash, he's already worth 70 million 😅
Now would be the best time if anything, Liam’s voice sounds the best it has in years
Ya it's amazing how Liam sounds better now then he did 20 years ago
No it wouldnt at ALL LOL. Definitely Maybe is coming up on 30 years in 2024... Morning Glory the year after... Maybe you dont know how touring works, which is fair, but.... to create a massive tour 2 YEARS before MAJOR anniversaries start happening (which means special edition re-issues, and allll of the stuff that goes with it) would be idiotic, as a tour's main job is to promote a product of some kind.. I cant see a new album coming, so with that, the BEST time to start the ball rolling, not even the shows, but simply the announcement, promo, n tix going on sale, would be approx 6 months before the 30 year anniversary of when it all began, Definitely Maybe, which would be SUMMER of 2024, n then they could STAY on the road, promoting re-issues of that one etc ALL THE WAY until October 95, the 30th of Morning Glory, and keep going on another re-issue romp for another year or more, soaking it alllll up. I'd make the announcement n start promo campaign in December 2023, and would be hitting the road by May or June, creating hype n momentum for the Definitely Maybe re-release shenanigans, n with my plan, could keep it going globally for 3 years at least. And believe me, these factors are a major consideration when talking tours of this importance, status, and size. Squeeze every possible drop out of the opportunity. So to start NOW, in spring 2022? Makes no strategic sense whatsoever, on any level. \m/
The Eagles announced their reunion, n quickly had an unplugged companion album to sell and promote on the tour.. GnR announced their reunion in 2016, by mid 2017 Appetite For Destruction special editions came.... N since, they've kept dropping things periodically. This was all part of the plan. To not do it this way would 100% downsize the entire thing, and I believe Noel and Liam would have 0 interest in reconnecting in a downsized format... lol
@@cessxiii I didn’t literally mean right this second in spring 2022, just now as in ‘the next upcoming years’. But that doesn’t mean another 10 years though either.
Can you honestly see Noel letting Liam take centre stage again? Not a chance, he’s to proud and stubborn. Noel’s lifestyle is a million miles away from Liam’s, I mean come on ffs Russel brand was his best man at his wedding. He’s a toff.
Given their constant arguments and violence, it’s amazing they stayed together as long as they did.
"Because we need each other. We believe in one another. And I know we're gonna uncover, what's sleeping in our soul."
i think there is so much to this story, because the way the media went after Liam clearly affected him. The media would often play up their fights and make jokes about it so much that it became part of every interview. Noel would often make jokes about leaving the band which would upset Liam and make him think Noel was conspiring with the media.
But there’s also times noel has called out the press for hounding Liam. I don’t think it’s all on liam for what caused the rift in their relationship. I feel for Noel deeply, but it’s so clear his brother was struggling badly with the press. You can look back at old interviews of liam and see how laid back he is. Despite the bad blood, there clearly is a lot of love between them.
I actually wrote a comment on oasismaniaoffial’s post a year or so ago which Liam actually ended up responding to.
I wrote something about an Oasis reunion wouldn’t be a great idea. The public image/reputation of the band around the DOYS album (2007-2009 era) was really not great and I didn’t wish the bad rep would re-emerge if the band went back into the public. Right now Oasis has a healthy reputation because of the past (like other bands that cease to exist)
Liam ended up responding to my comment saying “Nobody’s asking you so sit down zip it”
I might have hit a soft spot 🤷🏼♂️
Anyway I’ve got the comment printed and framed on my wall lol
Cheers and thank you for the constant Oasis mini documentaries James! You really seem to deliver the bigger picture unlike others!
@@user-oh7iv3ij5x I know for a fact that it’s Liam. You get a special message when a official profile comments.
Dumb reply by Liam , but who the fuck cares about reputation?
Im backing liam 😂
q
You hit a nerve because you were right. And Liam is in denial of this fact.
Movie idea: Obsessive fan abducts Noel and Liam, threatens to kill other hostages on the hour until they agree to a Reunion. Hilarity ensues.
Even then I don't think Noel would agree to it. He may agree to a one-off gig in a five hundred capacity venue, if his Wife and kids plus Paul Weller and family were on a plane with fifteen minutes to go before hitting the World Trade Centre. It would still be a close call. And he would probably insist in playing the songs locked inside the transit by himself.
That was almost the plot for Shoplifters about the smiths
I think you should look into Liams life after Oasis. Beady Eye, divorce and comeback. I know the movie is about that, but it didn't really say much of anything and go into detail like you do. Would be really interesting!
No wonder Noel has come to love Damon Albarn. Damon and Noel have the same drive and Damon really respects the craft that Noel and he share. Damon is a warm person and very caring and I think Noel has experienced an embrace from Damon that is kind of brotherly.
Saw them from 5 feet away during a live TV show taping. Noel was absolutely the band leader and the cheerleader.
Never had the stage presence or voice of Liam though
Lucky enough to have seen them live in '95 (Glastonbury) and '96 (Knebworth). Once more for luck would please a lot of people, but can you ever really recapture the magic?
You’re very man
No it would be just a nostalgia act. Noel is actually making music for creative sake. Liam is just trying to resurrect the old times.
See my above comment dude!
I caught them them the first time 3 weeks after Knebworth. Top show.
I think if they did reunite they'd sell out Knebworth for a week. The demand has never been higher but if it gets past 2025 it'll die down, Noel Gallagher knows that better than anyone.
How many people would have loved to see the Beatles live again , John and George have passed so it can’t happen
These boys are still with us and Noel says it not happening, ask Paul and Ringo if they wish the Beatles could have one more gig
Make it happen boys 🙏🙏
@ghost mall you must be joking, it would be Brilliant 🤩
Well said, John 💯
Bonehead should be the frontman, singing backwards in arabic, in falsetto while clapping poly rythm, Liam on tuba, guigs on banjo, Alan White on harp and noel as a dancer and they should call themselves: 'Potasis' and only playing techno backwards at twice the speed
And a Blur song.
I'd want this more than an oasis reunion
we've all had a bit of fun in the comments, haven't we

@@61subsandnovideos Me too 🤯
James: Could you do a video on why Oasis took a 3 year break after the Be Here Now tour, what the band members did during this break, how the British music landscape had changed during this time and what/how the band had changed once they returned in 2000
Yes please
I think he kinda did one already
@@theselector4733 Thank you, can you pinpoint us to a specific video? Live Forever;)
So much changed. Bonehead & Guigsy left the band, Creation Records went under. They sacked Owen Morris and quit Microdot…
WHY?
@@rivermintofficial It's on his page. I can't remember if the title of the video specifically pinpoints this subject in particular but it talks about in a general sense ie. How Britpop kinda died down from 97' - 2000. And the reasons behind it.
It's also important to note that post 2019, no major grenades have been thrown from either side - Liam truly has become more peaceful and zen so the hope only grows
Oasis is my favorite band and my biggest inspiration for learning guitar and making music. it's a shame I had never heard of them until after they had already split up. It'd be my dream come true to see them live together
I love what Noel is doing currently. I love Oasis madly and I'm American, but sometimes what's best for the fans is not what's best for the band.
It's not about what the fans want. It's about what the Gallaghers want......and they don't want it.
END OF STORY
Liam's new music is miles better though.
Stones Roses split again after re uniting 20 years on.Its up to Noel Gallagher but he doesnt want the old hassles he had with his brother.They done good when they started.After 13 years nah,cant see it for the reasons you said.
@@westendaggro Nah,but if you think that,ok.
@@brianmorecombe2726 Okie Dokie!!!
I read that Noel admitted that what caused the final fight was Liam giving him a gift of clothing from his new line and Noel donating the clothes to a gift shop. Resulting inLiam seeing his new line of clothes on a thrift shop dummy before they went on sale to the public. Liam called Noel out and asked why he didn’t just give the clothes back to Liam. Noel knew how to push Liam’s buttons and could be very hurtful.
You're a legend mate, love your videos. You put some much time and effort into them, this one was great. You deserve way more subs.
I’m in Adelaide, Australia. While watching this video, I could hear a band in a local club playing a cover of Don’t Look Back in Anger. Oasis is still relevant as ever.
I’m in Brisbane, QLD. I hear ya mate!
From Sydney I work in a pub and we get people covering wonderwall & dont look back in anger pretty often.
I really enjoy your analysis James, great work. You're a certified Oasis nerd and I mean that as the ultimate compliment.
I absolutely love these analysis type videos, really informative. Can’t wait for the next one!
I love oasis and I'll always have hope that a reunion is possible.
Very interesting indeed, thanks for the great work on that. Makes it clear why when and how the split took place and the low odds for a reunion. Excellent job! Loved the sign off at the end...Definately!
The only Oasis reunion that I'd want is their original 1994 lineup with Bonehead, Guigsy and McCarroll
Me too.
Definitely won't be mccarroll, Alan White 100%
Alan instead of Tony
Love your videos mate. As a massive oasis fan from New Zealand, I keep learning new things from your videos. Best wishes
I always wondered why Foo Fighters always performed with Liam on stage, but not with Noel...after watching Noel speaking about Foo Fighters, now I understand
Liam is pretty chill, noel kinda grumpy
@@ogabugabedj1977 did u watch any of this video?
In the last interview Noel did with Chris Evans in last September he said that he was happy that Liam was keeping the Oasis legacy alive. He talked really well about him and I was quite surprised about that. He also mentioned that Oasis was his biggest achievement but it's part of the past but no one knows what can happen in the future. And he ended up saying "it's good that Liam's Twitter rant is at peace. Hope it keeps like that" He clearly likes that Liam is not insulting him or his family lately. I think that from 2019 up to now they haven't insulted each other. What I want the most is that they can be brothers again. Their mom deserves it.
One of the most enjoyable, insightful videos on RUclips. I applaud your efforts in making this. Superb 👏
I do wish they become friends again even though that's a long shot. I am really not fussed on an Oasis reunion as I am enjoying both of their solo music! Liam hasn't said anything towards Noel's family for 3 years now and in recent interviews and ever since his second solo album I feel like he is comfortable with what he is currently doing. He has said some kind things to Noel aswell in recent years but the occasional dig is still there haha
I was at the V Festival where Oasis were due to play. I’ll never forget the absolute disappointed and frustration that went through the arena section as the big screens informed everyone that due to ‘illness’ they would no longer be playing and Snow Patrol would be headlining. I actually thought ‘fuck this’, stumbled back to my tent in my drunken, sunburnt state, picked up a couple of things and left the site to go home. Left basically everything there (including the people I went with) and got the coach from the site to Chelmsford train station.
I was there as well. Snow patrol shouldnt of had the headline spot as their music is too melow...
Noel and Liam inspired me to try to get along better with my own sisters despite our differences and age gaps. I see myself in them, being working class and having an alcoholic father, even though I'm not even from the UK. Music and art were my escape from reality. My personality is more like Liam's, while my older sister is my Noel. I absolutely idolized her when I was a teenager, wondering how she could be so put together and well spoken. As we got older, I thought that I had lost my best friend and expected her to come to me and apologize. Growing up is realizing that it goes both ways, apologizes and reunions.
Forget oasis. They need to reconcile as brothers before one of them or their mother (god forbid) passes. Nobody need to live out their days with that level of regret. It’s enough to age you early
That’s exactly how I feel as well. I don’t care if Oasis reunite but they need to make up, at least for the sake of their mother. I believe they will regret it if they don’t do it before she passes on (which I hope won’t happen soon)
Well the stone roses reunited after they gathered together for Reni's mother funeral. I'm afraid same thing will eventually happen with the Gallaghers.
They could certainly reunite and the world would flip out…
You produce brilliantly presented videos mate, I'm not and never been much into Oasis (sorry) but your deep dives in the way you unpack the dynamics and pace things are really compelling to watch, you deserve good things James
Couldn't have put it better myself. Spot on. Well said 👏 👌 👍
Noel is the kind of guy who say's he did all the work, but then doesn't let anybody do any of the other job then to play their parts at a concert or a record.
Liam found his apologetic spirit in For What It's Worth
That was aimed at Gene really for cheating on Nat (his mum) and partly for her I imagine. Just all that mess and likely including past pain for family such as those impacted by him cheating on Patsy.
I‘d love to hear you dissect the relationship between Noel and Andy
Firstly, I need to thank you for this deeply accurate and extraordinary video. I've never seen this story from this point of view. I have just one thing to point out: why showing almost only Noel's interviews? Some more Liam's perspective interviews would have completed this masterpiece of a video even more!! In any case, very well done mate I'm sure every Oais fan is delighted to enjoy your dedicated work👌💪❤️
That's what I say. This is more from Noel's point of view
They’ll get back together one day. Maybe not for an album but at least for a one off concert or short tour. If Pink Floyd, a group who’s members (Gilmore and waters) truly hate each other were able to reunite for Live8, then there’s hope for oasis. At the end of the day they are brothers and they’ll never say it publicly or to each other but I’m sure they care about each other and one day they’ll talk again.
Naaaah man.He’s best mates with Weller and he split up the jam at their peak.Oasis admittedly weren’t at their peak at the time but he’s gonna go with that blueprint.I’d put my house on it 🏡
Rumors of a reunion gig at Knebworth in 2024 are building momentum
I don’t even like oasis that much but the way Brits go crazy for them is very endearing
I love James, but I can't help but feel this is just him saying Noel is a saint and put up with his brother Liam for 20 years
@@Scarfmefatherwore Agree…James is a massive Noel fanboy lol
Why would anyone want to get Oasis back?
C'mon lads, speaking from a hardcore Oasis supporter who've seen them all around the world several times, met them personally- Oasis changed my life. We have Definitely Maybe, Morning Glory, all the masterpieces B- Sides from that era, great stuff on Be Here Now, SOTSOG, HC and their fantastic B- Sides.
We now all know that the last couple of records were not really historical albums to say the least. They have some nice moments but a lot of average stuff. You're probably not gonna get another epic material even if Oasis got back together tonight. Noel ran his course as a songwriter and Liam is way passed his prime and good vocal years.
What do you expect to get from a reunion? Wanna be snugged in a stadium/field floor with no room to breath let alone stand just so you could hear Slide Away played by these guys again? Let me save it for you. You don't really need it.
You want good music? be inspired by Oasis and go on to write music yourselves. Form your own bands and write your own songs. The world would much benefit from that and so would you, regarding the shitty situation the music industry is at right now.
It is what is is brothers.
Amen brother
A wonderful post buddy, and new, original music is definitely a cause James is getting behind. For a snapshot of just how shitty the music industry, see Rick Beato's vid on the Top 10 Pop Songs chart.
I agree. Although I personally think they should've split up a few years earlier than they did. Legacy-wise.
@@neilsun2521 years earlier. Liam's voice was garbage for years
I think what most people mean when they say “Oasis reunion” is a few one off live shows like Led Zeppelin or a tour. I don’t think many want them to be an actual band again.
Fantastic analysis. I've never seen the Oasis story told in this way before. A great perspective. I think even in the unlikely event that there was a reunion, I doubt it would last.
I watched this last night apparently. Was a bit Oliver Twist so didn't remember. Watching it sober... Fucking cracking video mate. Keep the Oasis stuff coming!
I just wish them to talk to each other again.
They do, its all for the cameras, you think peggy would put up with that?
Great insightful video that affirms a few things I’ve thought too, amazing work James - as always, the multiple sources really add a balanced narrative.
I’m one of the few that isn’t desperate to see them reform. Oasis will always be my number one band, but they’ll never sound like Earls Court 95, or release a ‘Some Might Say’ again. It was a moment in time, and WHAT a moment it was :)
Coming from someone who was in a band with his brother, I can say that some relationships just won't be repaired. Also, knowing a thing or two myself about getting hounded for a reunion, I can't imagine the annoyance of having that on a global scale. Some people are a net expense to your life, and they must be cut out. We are better off apart. As I believe Noel and Liam are better off apart. They are both putting out some killer music on their own, and aging well! The way I see it, you don't have to get back together, or forget and reunite as brothers, just stop the hostility. Anyways, keep on rocking. Cheers
This is a really great analysis of the relationship. That part at 43:00, wow you can really see how mad Noel is. I think that's the first time I've seen actual real rage in him.
No it isn’t too late! It’s never too late! Noel is a great songwriter and Liam is a great front man. Most importantly though, Oasis is greater than the sum of its parts and I would travel for weeks on horse back to watch Oasis play live again.
Honestly an Oasis reunion seems incredibly unattractive these days. In my opinion, there's no point if no new music is being made and Noel's drastic change in songwriting just wouldn't cut it. The days of Oasis as we knew them are long gone. It seems like the closest thing you'll ever get now is Liam himself, he seems to be Oasis' legacy and as Noel admitted himself, he's the one who keeps the spark alive.
Seeing them together again is like asking your toxic ex-girlfriend for a date…
I think it will happen but not for a long time. I never thought Axl and Slash would share the stage ever again, but here we are.
This is very sad when families end up not speaking to each other and having so much animosity towards each other.
thery'e both awesome in their own right but together they make amazing music. Forget ''who's better'' if they settled their differences, they would be a powerful force in music. I wish they could see it.
As a massive fan myself I always do get sick and tired of about the multiple posts about a reunion when it's never been happening but more importantly I think they should get back together as brothers but again the toxic behaviour of Liam and Noel's honesty just made it very difficult. Yet alone I don't blame Noel for not making it happen after what he and Liam went through and I do think they are better off in a separate space of their own but I feel sorry for Peggy. Also I've been very inspired by your videos and you've done amazing content and for me being a fan of the band your knowledge is amazing.
The bbc played the right here right now doc from 97 tonight, was a right treat. If you've got sky it's there to download.
Well, they’re back. Everything is possible.
I enjoyed that, thank you. Nicely done James. I really enjoy your videoes.
James thank you very much for the Oasis historical background you provide in this video. You have done a number of these and you have done a great job with all of them. It is kind of depressing to me tho. It plays back old tapes from my own childhood/adolescence, Catholic church and upbringing, authoritarian old school father, etc. That leads me to my own conclusions regarding the two brothers.
But first let me ask you what do you hope to get from a reunion? And realistically how do you think it is possible? These two are carrying around a lot of garbage with them that has built up from the deep past which you allude to in the video. What would be required to start a joint cleansing for the two? I am not a psychologist but it would seem there would need to be some kind of professional help required to get thru all that past BS going back to childhood. Not easy.
Can you imagine those two in the studio or practice sessions now? Noel had complete control in the Oasis days. Is that going to be the case now? The situation would seem to be highly instable. Just one little thing to provoke a memory of the past and then what do you have?
Noel's right James IMHO. He sees the situation for what it is: a huge likelihood of disaster and disappointment and he is not inclined to to give in to fans wet dreams about a reunion just to go through that. At least IMHO.
But hey James this is not meant to be a criticism just an opinion! You do a great job with this and as a relatively recent Oasis fan I greatly appreciate your work and insights on this remarkable group.
Noel, being older than Dave, calls him "Uncle Dave"
XD
Another great video, James. Top top viewing 👏
Such an interesting watch this, great to see all the interviews and info in one place. Definitely worth noting that new fans should watch the most recent interviews rather than ones from 2011 before saying ‘well Noel said he’s open to a reunion’
Are you here after attending knebworth like me and wondering the same! Will there ever be another and will oasis get back together
@@neekononame9900 i wasn’t there unfortunately though i did have a ticket, only been a fan since 2015 but i still live in hope!
Honestly, I don’t care about them playing any concerts or making new music. I just want the Brothers to be able to live with each other again.
Noel has the patience of a saint. I certainly hope there's no reunion. They're both great on their own. Long live the High Flying Birds.
Another top notch video James! Loving these
Great video. The only reason I would want them to get back together, is to show the millions belonging to the new generation how great they are and to have a second chance of being huge in the United States (they were big, but not as massive as in the rest of the world). I also think they are the only band that has people calling the overrated, when true Oasis fans know that Noel is a one in a generation song writer and they have dozens and dozens of amazing songs that were eclipsed by others and media coverage about them in the 90’s. They set the bar to high with their first two albums (both of them also havin truely underrated songs), but the later albums also have some very good and underrated songs. Their style, influence, significance, representation and many other things still can’t be matched to this day. Also think other 90’s band such as Nirvana (very good, though), have had help from the press to portrait them as better than what they were. Commercially speaking they also had help. Not Oasis. With that kind of coverage and some better decision making by Liam and Noel (for example, the MTV Unplugged incident and some unfortunate things said about the US, they could have been even bigger). But they were massive in UK as maybe no one or some few bands, the all time great ones. And, at the end of the day, every decision they took is what made Oasis what they are now. So no regrets. Love them.
I have so much respect for noel to stay with oasis for so long. I was in a band where things didnt worked out that well between me and the bandleader. Even though there was a lot potential and it meant so much to me, I had to get out of there for my own inner peace. And that was in no way comparable what happened between Noel and Liam. Guess Noel truly loved the music, otherwise I can not explain how he was able to work with Liam for such a long time.
Maybe we'll get an Oasis one off charity gig one day.
Always look on the bright side of life:
We used to have oasis.
Now, we have TWO oasis.
A reunion would truly suck. LIam is doing great stuff solo and seems the happiest guy on earth, Noel is living amongst celebrity as he always wanted. They should make peace tough.
I love Oasis but don’t want a reunion, but I do want them to be brothers again.
Yeah, if only for the sake of their mam.
Isn't Catholicism in need of a serious change. I'm tempted to write a more scathing attack but I appreciate the church has a place in society. To persuade couples to stay together through abusive relationships is utterly outdated.
Thanks for this wonderful documentary of yours, now I finally understand Noel.
Brilliant analysis mate...the world has never needed oasis to reunite so much as now
He's had very nice things to say abt The Foos in the past. He's just... He ain't the working-class hero that turned this #MadFerItAmerican on in 1995! I know that much! Liam's a fan of The Foo Fighters, really.
There's no point in a reunion. Oasis accomplished everything they could have possibly done. They're still huge. The legacy is as good as it can be right now with the Supersonic and Knebworth films. Leave it as it was.
Another very interesting and informative video, James. Thanks
I’ve seen Liam Gallagher twice it’s amazing how successful of a popular culture hes comeback too
I can already tell this vid is gonna be a banger lol
The question is getting old. Not all the parties want to get back together.
I really loved watching Oasis in the 90s concert in Cork and all was love 😁🤙🥃🍺🍹Oasis
Thank you for all of these videos. Have enjoyed them very much.
I've never seen the point in them getting back together.
The music was no way near as good as in the early days.
That final tour was miserable. Nobody wants a repeat of that.
Don't be sad because it's over, be happy because it happened.
Find your Wembley 2000 video actually got me fully into Oasis. I feel like there's just too much money involved for Oasis not to reunite in some kind of way. It'd probably be a festival circuit or just a single show, but it'd be worth it I'm sure
I really like your oasis videos, can tell you done your research. I know you're a fan of the be here now era. Try to get hold of a 'select' magazine issue from 1997, just after knebworth, Noel spoke about going away with a suitcase to write the lyrics. Gives the vibe around that time.
4:00 "Potato Gallagher and the Low-Charting Turds" 😂
PS. I feel we need more coverage of the post 2000 albums, gigs etc. Would love also more coverage of the other later band members. Make it happen 👍
Would really love any analysis of the relationship between Noel and Andy. I suspect they really didn't like each other.
Pls do a vid on beady eye there well underrated and I love that second album ur vids r mint keep up the good work
Just want them to be brothers first and foremost. Bringing Oasis back would be the cherry on the cake.
I am going to choose, what I believe everyone else should choose, to just say no and walk away! Listen to the great albums, watch the concert footage here on RUclips and forget about the idea of a re-union. It's getting to the point where too much time has elapsed and more and more people are starting to just not care.
ok, Liam did a lot of shitty things, but I think you're trying to present this Barcelona argument completely backwards.
It was Noel who beat Liam up, not the other way round, yet you're trying to present Liam as the abuser. I don't care what he said, nothing justifies physical violence.
I have not heard a single story about Liam getting violent on Noel, but just in this video you have mentioned two examples of Noel physically assaulting Liam (during the recording sessions and during the cancelled gig).
Their relationship was clearly toxic from both sides, Noel was just as abusive as Liam. Perhaps even more so, given that he seems to be the only one to have actually beaten the other up repeatedly 😢
To be honest, I don't care for Oasis reunion anymore. Liam is still at it. I dare to say that some tunes from his new catalogue are even better than Oasis. Noel.. Well, he fell into some weird Coldplay trap but I mean, if he's happy there then let him be there.
An excellent video mate. There's always a wee bit of hope, eh?
I seen them in Slane right before this happened, was an amazing gig. Then this just happened. Im glad I got to see them
