What compelled 2 million British people to try to purchase tickets to a 250,000 capacity Oasis concert in 1996?
Wonderwall
<First notes of Wonderwall suddenly start playing in your head>

Wonderwall wasn't even that popular though. You're telling me millions of people wanted to drop a hundred bucks on tickets for some one hit wonder that wasn't even that big of a hit??? These dudes had one song lmao

It only blew up in America, Amerifat. Their good singles weren't even distributed in the US.
For fucks sake I'm 25 and from fucking Saint Louis and even I remember hearing other Oasis songs besides Wonderwall on the radio and stuff. Champagne Supernova, Don't Look Back in Anger, Live Forever... Stop being willfully ignorant.

They were. My brother had pretty much every single they released up until Champagne Supernova and Wonderwall blew up here.
It's still funny to me that Oasis were considered an "exotic and alternative" college radio/120 Minutes-type band here at a time when they were already full-blown popstars in the UK and Europe.

great songs though

Ah the common misconception that imitating a band means you are of equal artistic worth to them.
>>73537537
lack of taste
>>73537537
Shit taste and hype. Later to be known as the OFWGKTA Effect
>>73538145
Same mistake The Beatles made when they ripped off Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley, Bobby Parker, Little Richard...
>montie still spamming the same meme
>>73538265
what meme exactly?
>>73538409
Oasis is a meme
>>73538439
They're also a band that was fucking massive 20 years and still quite beloved to this day.
>>73538503
no this is /mu/. we only care about the last months opinion

> St Louis
Why do niggers there just wander around in the streets like zombies? Fucking bums. Total disregard for anyone trying to go anywhere, people should just attach cow catchers to their pickups and start running the over.
