React to Oasis- half the world away

Gerard McCartan

Oasis Live Forever Maine Road MUST be the next one from the GOATS

Gerard McCartan

This was a B side to Wonderwall. Listen to the original track

Lee Yarker

Slide away, Chicago 1998 should be in one of your poles. Probably the best live acoustic performance I’ve even heard/seen, gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. If anyone hasn’t seen it before it’s highly recommended

Strawbs Shem

In their heyday Oasis b-sides were better than 99% of the stuff other bands were releasing as a-sides

Duncan

So many B sides from their first two albums. I’m absolutely sure they did it on purpose to hide some gems (like The Smiths did). I Will Believe off the Supersonic single is great.

Victoria O'Donoghue

if you can believe this was a B-side song!!!

Ian Warren

Much prefer The Beatles song Everybody's Got Something To Hide (Except For Me And My Monkey) from 1968, to be honest. But each to their own. Whatever makes you happy is right for you.

Ian Warren

The Beatles (Oasis's favourite band) literally made knickers wet. I think they regret that as they used to then be thrown on stage by the fans. But I digress... I was never too fond of Oasis (yet I'm from Manchester) but this performance has made me look again. This was beautiful. I've only ever known them from their hits, and I find them okay but I'm not a fan as such, but songs like this, and Half A World Away, are changing my mind.

Ian Warren

Never a big fan of Oasis, and I'm from Manchester so they could technically take away my Mancunian Card for saying that (made up), so I came into this thinking, meh, I'll try it. I actually loved this more than their many hits. That was beautiful. Hmm, maybe I could become a fan after all.

Neil Tolerton

Was at oasis in Dublin on Saturday night. Even better than the last time, which was Cork, almost 30yrs ago..so good live

Shane Doolan

Not as good as muse plug in baby 😂

CONALL MCLAUGHLIN

Always thought Oasis were just boring. After all the comments here I gave this a watch, and it was a load of shite. 🤣 The people voting this have to be trolling surely?

RegenerationNationTV

Give it a rest man. You've been at it all morning in replies. We get it, you don't like them. Go make a reddit post about it. This is not the place

SpayMe

And this beat Muse in a poll, crazy. Matt Bellamy has more talent in one fingernail than all of these guys put together

SpayMe

If they heard Oasis they’d think that the human race only knew how to write basic, simple riffs. Oasis see completely mediocre at best.

Simon Crockford

I still lived in Stevenage (nearest big town to Knebworth) when this happened. One of the only Knebworth gigs I didn't sneak into. If you grew up in Stevenage or Knebworth back then it was a kind of rite of passage - and we all knew "ways" and yes, one of the Knebworth gigs I went to was Queen - Freddies last gig. I actually live in Knebworth village now but the really big gigs are pretty much a thing of the past

Dan Anderson

Oasis are one of the bands that for years to come, will make knickers wet 🤣😅😅

Dan Anderson

When The human race inevitably goes instinct, the next sentient species I hope will find a record and understand it's for music, and will hear OASIS, they will understand completely what humanity stood for, and the reasons we were hostile as a species.

Tass

Just a reminder, we still haven't had "Me and my monkey" by Robbie at Knebworth yet and that's a criminal entertainment absenty in the Knebworth pool of works.

Neil

Oasis my big mouth Knebworth. Let's get Liam singing. The lead singer.

ColdStarr

Paul

Well done, you 👏🏻

Paul

100%

Paul Coplen

So we're reacting to a b-side? Oh I forgot it's Oasis. Yawn!!!

Anglan

I think you guys would like the Importance of Being Idle by Oasis

Chris Kay

One of the best B-sides of all time!!??

trev

"There's four and twenty million doors on life's endless corridor" Beautiful, profound and tossed into a b side.

BrizeeB

Should definitely listen to the music video version, cool video

BrizeeB

They are only better on the songs he sings, Noel's much better for this song than Liam would be

Fordy7169

TBF it only seem like 19 years, time moves faster as you get older.

James Welsh

Haha, no shot did Jess just say 19 years ago 🤣

Derek Fleming

Noel’s glance over to Mark Feltham (harmonica) towards the end, as if to say “not bad mate, not bad” is brilliant. Epic song, epic gig.

Ever So Sweet Mary Jane

19 years ago was 2006...

Andy O'Sullivan

Definitely suggest reacting to the documentary ‘supersonic’. It goes though the years of oasis first forming up to this gig at knebworth, very 90s nostalgia, I think you guys would enjoy it

Luke Gale9

I jumped the fence , watched Prodigy and fucked off when these wankers came on Cheers

Bcam007

Banging will never forget being at there Loch Lomond gig makes me feel old

Paul Tully

Oasis killing it atm with their comeback shows in the UK, soon in North America. But definitely worth checking out more Oasis in the 90's and even their recent comeback shows and of course the Britpop indie scene of the early to mid nineties

Chris H

I'm a lifelong Oasis fan and this is one of my favourite songs of theirs, but the Muse performances are another level. Knights of Cydonia from the same gig is great as well

CJ

The homecoming gig at Heaton Park last month was incredible. Best night of my life! Manchester vibes in the areaaaaa

Jay Lo

Love oasis, love the song. But liams vocals are way better than noels. We need more oasis 😁

Richard Stokes

Yeah without Liam singing your not getting the full Oasis experience in a sense, it's very different

sjay

19 years ago? Try 29! God, I feel old.

Richard Lees

I like this song. I like Oasis. Would really like to see a reaction to a Liam (lead singer) song. Noel songs are great for respite on their albums and live sets.

Si

I'd not actually seen this before, but as it popped up I thought I'd have a look as it's an amazing song so thought this must be the most amazing version... Um... harmonica much. Wuh??? 🤣 this is like an ode to a depressed tramp in Hyde Park or summat. M&J, hope you react to the song proper.

Si

Now you've said that, you need to get your duster and bottle of Glade out to polish the spot on the 'Oasis at Knebworth' halo that you've just tarnished 😇

emu cat

Dja wear a black armband when they shot the man that said peace would last forever

Karlos

Kenneth Swan

Either I'm missing a joke or key reference or you need to work on your maths there.

Paul08031977

That may or may not be the case, but Oasis put in great live performances. The Beatles were not a particularly amazing live band; their best work was in the studio. And the Beatles own influences are well documented.

Karlos

Was Jess's reaction to Noel saying "you can dance if you wanna dance" a reference to Men Without Hats? 😂

Si

Agreed. Euro 96 and the music was the peak. The pubs we went in then were amazing round this place. Should see the state of it all now. Definitely regressed not progressed the last 30 years. Would love to have those good times back though.

Si

Acquiesce 💚 Talk Tonight 💚 Rockin Chair 💚

White Dwarf

This was a B-side track on the Wonderwall single, along with Round Are Way and The Swamp Song. I remember rushing out to HMV Manchester one weekend to buy the Wonderwall single, because I'd watched them play Round Are Way on The White Room the night before and needed to hear it again and again. The Masterplan as the last track on the single was more than added bonus!

Emma Edwards

Stop lying Si 😂 Oasis songs are always better live! Especially Liam’s voice - studio Liam sounds very over processed and nasal.

Si

Studio version miles better.

Charlie

Between this and the football, summer '96 was the pinnacle of Cool Britannia. And no matter how much people shell out for hyped reunion shows or say "It's coming home", it's never coming back.

Nathalie Grainger Bradbury

😂

Rob Pontin

Need to react to the full Knebworth show, it was great my brother and his mates had tickets went but sold them outside to a tout for stupid amounts of money

Emma Edwards

I do prefer Liam. My favourite is Slide Away. I’d love to see them react to that. Same concert ❤️

Andy

19 years ago? I've not felt this young in years... (It's 29 years)

Emma Edwards

Some context on this one. They did two nights at Knebworth, it’s a massive venue to fit 125k people, so 250k over two nights. 2.5 million people applied for tickets, which was the highest demand tickets in British history at that point in time. They could easily have sold out an entire week there. If you do any more Oasis reactions, always make sure it’s a live version as it’s always better than the studio version. And Knebworth was one of their best concerts. Robbie later went on to do 3 nights (the Angels reaction you did was one of the nights at Knebworth). I don’t think anyone has ever done more than 3 nights there.

Dandelion

Oh god no. LOVE OASIS. HATE NOEL'S VOICE!!!

Human#19138980

I remember being a kid, recording this entire gig off the radio live, keeping a little travel alarm clock with me to remind me to run in and turn the tape over every 45 minutes

Jamie

All I can hear is Don't Look Back in Anger, but i'm sure that's intentional?

lee

Please watch the same song live at Wembley from last week to see the difference in the crowd participation

Mark McKeown

1996 was 19 years ago? Got some bad news for you Jess

Silly Uncle Andy Farmer

welwyn garden city lad here, my family could hear it, while i was at the concert with my sister

Emma Edwards

The absolute best version of one of my top 5 Oasis songs x

Silly Uncle Andy Farmer

man i was there that night it was epic!

Julian

If only 1996 was 19 years ago. It means the last 10 years were a dream… Hopefully the Muse video gets voted through on the next poll. That’s a banger as well.

Colin Welsh

I could hear this concert in my back garden

AdamMcAdamface

I was there! (I'm showing my age now). I was 17 years old at the time. Knebworth was £22.50 for a full day of music, with Oasis as the headliner! The crowd was about 250,000 people over the two days of the gigs. Mad times!

Ash Jeffries

I do prefer the studio recorded version but this is a great live rendition and the added harmonica does give the song a different flavour. It's easily Oasis's best song in my opinion, kind of surprisingly excellent, but I am not a fan of Oasis overall. I see them as "pub rock" in truth, little more than a Beatles tribute act with one or two original moments, and I say that as a big fan of The Beatles. 🙂

david mitchell

It was chill because it was noel singing not Liam

Rich

Me and my mates have huge connection to this song, the sound of my youth

Chris Harding

To be fair the harmonica doesn’t really feature in the actual recorded track but it adds a lot here, worth noting that this song was actually a b-side and never released, a song that good and Noel just classed it as a b-side, the guy is just the best
