Five surprises about the 2006-model Oasis

First, the bad news for Oasis fans: The mouthy group has no plans of entering a studio at present. Now, the good: The band has a fine holiday gift ready in its new Stop The Clocks anthology, featuring 18 Oasis classics handpicked by the Gallagher brothers—guitarist Noel and vocalist Liam. Noel chose this festive occasion to set the record straight on a few key issues:

6. Noel's "setting the record straight" is just too cute for words...

Oasis is the king of the killer B-side: As proved by Clocks inclusions like “Acquiesce,” “Talk Tonight” and “The Masterplan,” “there was a two- or three-year period where everything I wrote was just fantastic,” Gallagher reappraises. “And of course, if all the B-sides for would’ve been what became the Be Here Now album, I think we would’ve gone on to be possibly one of the biggest bands of all time. Uh, not that we’re not anyway! But I think we would’ve been as big as U2.”

in other words, if only Oasis had made a good album, they'd be one of the biggest bands of all time. as things stand, however, they're just wankers.

7. Nice that Noel admits Oasis isn't even as big as U2.

Yet they are somehow the "icon of the 90s" and are bigger and better than the Beatles.

:crazy:
