Oasis and The Beatles

C, A, G, E, D, F, E-minor, A-minor, references to fools on hills, Imagine-like intros, basin-head haircuts, constant adoration for John Lennon.All of these things, to mention a few, made Oasis the Beatles of the 90's. Liam and Noel Gallagher never hid the fact that they wanted to be in The Beatles, no, "be The Beatles". Their songs were peppered with Beatles references, their chord progressions identical in some songs, and their look was near-on the same. -http://www.babblog.com/Oct_05/101405_IW_Music.htm

The Beginning of Don't Look Back in Anger sounds like Imagine. Champagne Supernova, Sounds a lot like The Beatles song, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. Sing along with "I'd Like To Be,Under The Sea, In An Octopus's Garden..In The Shade", to Whatever,it fits perfect. Born On A Different Cloud, sounds just like Happiness Is A Warm Gun by the Beatles.

Oasis, are what Rock & Roll should be.
