Remember when they called Oasis “the next Beatles?” Turns out that one guy vaguely resembled John Lennon when wearing those little circle glasses but that’s as close as they could get.

Maybe their legacy is felt a bit more in the UK where “Post Brit-Pop” is the term used to describe music clearly inspired by Oasis.
But they definitely have inspired a generation of musicians that the Beatles have.

I was definitely being cheeky but there’s no doubt they were a globally huge band at the time. Even in 95-96ish, 10 y/o me had the Morning Glory album as did most of my friends in our chilly little Wisconsin, USA town. I think we all thought they would end up far more influential in the future. Whatever lasting impression they made on the music scene, and no doubt they did just that, I don’t think it was quite the impact the whole world thought they would make back then. In the same breath, here we are still talking about them nearly 30 years later.

I think some of their songs are Beatle-esque - e.g. “Don’t Look Back in Anger.”

Most of their songs are Beatle-esque or have Beatle Easter eggs in the lyrics. Noel Gallagher was/is extremely vocal about being a Beatles fan and saying where he stole parts of Beatles songs/lyrics for his songs.

There was a disparaging scene about them in the Yesterday movie about the Beatles disappearing from existence with only one person remembering them,
The main character Googled for traces of the Beatles and was shocked to find there were none
Then when he googled Oasis and found nothing he was like “huh. Makes sense”

Probably the best gag in the whole movie
