I'll start with the obvious one

>The album features the hit singles "Bitter Sweet Symphony", "The Drugs Don't Work" and "Lucky Man".
>The band's original line-up reunited in June 2007, embarking on a tour later that year and releasing the album Forth in August 2008, which spawned the hit single "Love Is Noise".

Not in the UK
>>
>>74320796

Gonna go ahead and assume all of this is in Australia or UK or some country that's not America and not relevant in terms of pop music in the last three decades.
>>
>>74320494
>dude steals J Spaceman's girlfriend
>goes on to have his hit single credited to some schmucks and he has to pay 100 percent of the songs revenue to them
Is karma real?

>>74320494
they have AT LEAST 4 hits lmao

>>74320494
>he hasn't listened A Storm in Heaven nor the EP

>Dude Oasis is literally better than every other rock band in history combined and not unlistenable garbage!

>Dude Common People isn't just a good song, it's actually the greatest song ever recorded and we should still be talking about it two decades later for some reason!

That about cover the last three decades of worthwhile UK pop music?

Keith didn't really give a shit
>In a 1999 interview with Q magazine, when asked whether he believed the result was fair, Keith Richards replied, "I'm out of whack here, this is serious lawyer shit. If The Verve can write a better song, they can keep the money."

It was the old Stones manager and the composer who wrote the symphony based on a Stones song that went hard after them. The former manager owned the copyright on the original song and the composer is the one whose work was sampled.

Essentially everything other than Oasis

Lipps Inc. - Funkytown
Men Without Hats - Safety Dance
Dee-Lite - Groove Is in the Heart

And that makes the UK charts irrelevant how Mr. dubdubs? It's the best pop single of the 00s.

Verve EP, A Storm in Heaven and No Come Down are amazing. What a sound they had.
