Lyla-Oasis

Post by martinfoyle »

Along with the U2 show from monday, the Polish radio leak of the forthcoming Oasis single has been clogging up the internet. Here's one source if you want to grab it. Very same old, same old, imo.

Just listening to it and don't like it at all.

They should go back to what they did well - ripping off The Beatles like on Morning Glory.

I think it will do better than their last singles. It's catchy in an annoying way. I like the rip-off beginning from "Street Fighting Man"

Oasis has always bored me... even when everyone else was like "these guys rule!"
This morning you've got time for a hot, home-cooked breakfast! Delicious and piping hot in only 3 microwave minutes.

Is this the place to admit that sometimes I put on "Definitely Maybe" at full blast and dance around the room singing into a hairbrush? No? Okay then, never mind.

I'm totally Bluechair on this one. In fact, they never even sounded much like the Beatles to me!

And, though I sorta like and respect them, the only U2 recrord I ever seriously considered buying was the single of "Angel of Harlem."

Bobster, we are U2 sould mates. Angel of Harlem rocks!! I ended up buying Rattle and Rum when it came out because it was on that record. Nothing since or before. I was blown away when at the time that record came out they publicly stated that it was inspired by their first becoming aware of American blues. Unbelievable!! Not just that it would be the case, but that they would admit it publicly.

The melody to this new Oasis song, "Lyla," sounds a lot like the Stones "Street Fighting Man."
