In my opinion... Oasis
Noel Gallagher has rightly earned himself a reputation as an 'elder statesman of rock'. His role as the wise and witty leader of Oasis is as much a part of the rock and roll establishment as Keith Richard's resilience, Johnny Borell's arrogance and younger brother Liam's petulance.

With an ability to write tunes that will hammer through your skull, perforate your soul and tattoo themselves on your heart, Noel is the driving force behind the band that helped define the 90s, and he has demonstrably proven throughout the course of Oasis' 13 years in the spotlight that he is the pivotal point of inspiration, not just for the music, but for everything. Their style, their sound, their ethos, the very core of all that binds them together, and that makes them carry on because he knows that in the end its all worthwhile.

8. This is one of the things I post for popcorn.

I do admit it is somewhat entertaining, watching the futile tactics employed by the Beatlist propagandists who are obviously paid and organized to try to engineer musical taste in the DU Lounge to be in line with the rock establishment traditionalists (also paid). Popcorn, indeed!

3. At least it's not the other one

That being said, Oasis is for crap-lovers who insist that all their songs end up in a vomitastic whirled pool of aborted fetus flesh.

4. You know, that is a good question
Should Noel branch out on his own, and risk losing what they have accomplished so far? I'm curious to see if Noel can keep delivering the goods with the antagonsim provided by Liam.

7. You probably think that he writes all of my Oasis threads too.
Sadly, I have not become as great as Noel Gallagher.

10. "Great as Noel Gallagher"? Shouldn't you have higher standards for yourself
Hell - at least reach for Vanilla Ice or Milli Vanilli greatness.

Have you no pride in yourself?

12. Your reference to Milli Vanilli is a mathematical impossibility.

13. Hey, one of the Millis was born on the same exact date & year as I was
Therefore the equation could work

BTW - it's the one that is still alive
