      wow the UK is overly infatuated with Oasis. Over here we know them as the third-rate Beatles parody band that they are.

                          that dude's voice makes me want to strangle small children. I actually never understood the Beatles comparison at all. McCartney & Lennon could actually both SING.

                              Liam can sing but he just has a rough voice, Noel is a better singer though, mabye it's because you are american and the accent sounds weird to you? Either way, they are musical genious.

                              Muse are very good by the way, never understood why they are not big in Amerca.

                                          Limey, I assure you that hiphop is the worst music in existence if that's what you are insinuating.

                                              As much as the NME has glorified to overwhelming levels some of my favourite bands and it's my source of indie knowledge I do know it should not be taken that seriously ;)

                                              Pulp FTW!

                                                  Some (ALOT) of the best bands in history are from somewhere in the UK, it's not what you think. But when a bunch of little cocksuckers think that they can write better songs than the beatles, then all the retards read the interview in spin and feel inclined to believe them because 99.9% of people know fuck-all about music...dude fucking come on.

                                                      The Beatles are their idols, i doubt they ever said they are better than the Beatles, once they said bigger, but not better and really they were bigger, they broke the beatles record sales.

                                                      Have you listened to Deffinitely Mabye from start to finish? Be honest.

Brits are weird, some of the best bands in the history of music are British, and yet they include Oasis & the Spice Girls as if their music means ANYTHING. Staying within the confines of British music, Pink Floyd's Dark Side should be #1 (one of the most brilliant albums of all time), Beatles Revolver #2, Led Zeppelin IV #3, Black Sabbath Paranoid #4, Radiohead The Bends #5, Pink Floyd The Wall or Wish You Were Here #6

                                                                              That's just fucking obvious. The influence those bands had on every band that came after them is enormous. Putting Oasis on that list at all, let alone #1 is a fucking joke.

There obviously is a bias and if the list was from an American source, you can bet there would be differences.

                                                                                              I think it's safe to say that this magazine's target demographic is people aged 25-35.

                                                                                              The really modern sounds aren't listed until around #30, yet they will do this list again in 10 years (and have a new readership demographic) and that Arctic Monkeys album at #86 will be moved into the top 10.

                                                                                                                                  What is surprising is Definitely Maybe #1 instead of Morning Glory, which just about every Oasis fan will tell you was their best album.


                                                                                                                                  Oasis never really got their recognition in the US, but for a period in the 90's they were the biggest band in the world.
                                                                                                                                  Morning glory was good but it was not the masterpeice that Definitely mabye is, anyone will tell you that.

                                                                                                                                  I don't agree with the list either, it would be absolutley impossible to make a perfect top 100 list but Oasis definitely (no pun intended) do not get enough credit in America. The other guy that was bashing them admitted he didn't even listen to the album lol

The vote was announced in last year's edition of British Hit Singles & Albums, said editor David Roberts. Anyone could vote for as many as 10 albums, in rank order, and probably 95 percent of the 40,000 votes came from Britain, he said.

                                                                                                                                                                          Ah, so that even further explains it.

                                                                                                                                                                          Many years ago our own MuchMusic asked viewers to name the top videos of all-time. New Kids on the Block were still popular (so yes this was a *few* years ago!) and the result was something like 3 of the top 5 were from them. Credibility of list = zero.

                                                                                                                                                                          Clearly the majority of voters were, as Matt suggested, in their 20s/early 30s, so there is an obvious bias towards newer bands ... but overall less so than I'd assume - there are plenty of true classics in there, just not as high as expected.

One or two oasis songs are ok i could listen to wonderwall without a problem. Dance/Drum & Bass beats all those shitty bands. But even kayne west, lil wayne etc are better than the beatles.

Oasis? how can they be #1?? even if you really like them they are not getting the #1 slot please. The Beatles have to have that and the White Album should be higher. Radiohead could be higher as well. Everything that bad puts out is amazing
