the verve. end of really, they were always the better band, they just overdid it with the drugs, in oh such a romantic way.
Best, you've got to be the best
You've got to change the world
And use this chance to be heard
Your time is now
Because Noel Gallagher is a cocky bastard.
You have it about right; in the 90s they were just about the biggest British bands on the planet, and the US music press lumped them together under the umbrella of "britpop" and their songs were competing in the charts with one another. There's even a wiki article on it, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Battle_of_Britpop

We should do a voting thread!
Oasis is so much better!
And it's typical american to say Song 2 rules! You never heard of Blur, except for that song! Beetlebum is way better and got less recognition.
I do like Blur, but Oasis are better songwriters, and have consistently made better records. Like the new one, which is fucking awesome!
A ghost is all that's left, of everything we swore we never would forget. Tried to bleed the sickness, but we drained our hearts instead. We are...we are the dead.
It was about Oasis' Roll With It, and Blur's Parklife competing to be number 1 at the same time. Blur got the number 1, but then they dissapeared from the face of the earth. If there was a winner to all that crap, Oasis were it, by a long way. Wonderwall isn't that good of a song, and Oasis have alot of better stuff.
Pity The Verve got sweeped under the carpet because of all this, because they genuinely were more talented than Oasis or Blur could ever hope to be.
