Definitely Maybe 30 August 1994 發表的首張專輯『Definitely Maybe』 被評為 "shoots of vitality in a barren pop land" ,可見OASIS的出現對樂壇的影響有多大。
其中Live Forever更成為英式搖滾的國歌。
Oasis 第一支在全英發行的單曲「Supersonic」
(What's the Story) Morning Glory?
2 October 1995 發行的專輯『(What's the Story) Morning Glory?』 僅次Queen以及Beatles登上英國排行銷售史上第三高的作品,進攻滾石雜誌「史上五百張經典專輯」之列、穩坐2008年Q和 HMV的「史上英國最佳專輯」名單亞軍,名單中的第一名還是Oasis的首張專輯《Definitely Maybe》。
還沒有擁有這兩張專輯嗎?快去買吧!
"Some Might Say", "Roll With It", "Wonderwall", and "Don't Look Back in Anger"都是出自這張專輯的暢銷金曲,來聽聽看演唱會的必備不敗"Wonderwall"及 "Don't Look Back in Anger",好聽到暴表,連歌詞都很有啟發性,真是很有想法的搖滾樂團。其中"Wonderwall"的和絃編排經典到成為吉他手必練的曲目之一,如果演唱會大合唱時你不會這兩首,那不只是糗可以形容你的心情了。
Be Here Now 21 August 1997 發行的 『Be here now』,它是英國唱片歷史上銷售最快的專輯,第一天就賣出42萬3千張,第一個星期賣出69萬5千7百61張,第二個星期就突破百萬張。樂團靈魂人物Noel 之後有對這張專輯評論 "...most of the songs were written before i even got a record deal, I went away and wrote the lyrics in about two weeks.
這首是不同於 Ben E. King那首喔!雖然名字一樣!帶來的感動卻不一樣,相當值得推薦的一首好歌。接續「Wonderwall」的告白曲,延伸出來的感動,搖滾英雄也是會落淚的,順便附上Ben E. King版本的連結Stand by me。
對Oasis樂迷來說,Don't go away也是很重要的一首歌。
The Masterplan 2 November 1998 (UK) 發行的『The Masterplan』是B-Side作品輯。
專輯選曲是依據Oasis網站上樂迷票選的結果加上Oasis團員們自己的意見。
專輯中的同名歌曲The Masterplan是NOEL自己認為最滿意的歌曲之一,寫於OASIS在日本開演唱會期間為BSIDE寫的,Noel表示這首歌除了勸人們回復年輕時期做自己想做的事的坦蕩,以及面對問題時要先面對自己的心態,還帶著一點政治的隱喻。當Creation Records 老闆 Alan McGee聽到這首歌時告訴 Noel :「it was "too good" to be a B-side.」 Noel 回答 "Well, I don't write shit songs!"
Standing on the Shoulder of Giants 28 February 2000發行『Standing on the Shoulder of Giants』,話說某天Noel喝醉酒,迷濛中發現新的2元英磅上中有一行字非常的屌,是物理學家牛頓的名言,當下決定作為新專輯名稱。
The album's title was taken from the words made famous by Sir Isaac Newton: "If I can see further than anyone else, it is only because I am standing on the shoulders of giants". 像是在向the Beatles、the Sex Pistols、the Stone Roses這3個偉大名團致敬一樣,能有撼動人心的音樂,正因為我們也站在音樂巨人的肩膀上阿!
放入CD聽到的第一首歌「Fuckin In The Bushes」,讓人腦袋頓時清醒!
本張專輯的主打歌曲『Go Let It Out』,
Heathen Chemistry 1 July 2002 的『Heathen Chemistry』是Oasis第一次當專輯的製作人,由團員自己決定專輯的走向,因此不會有任何人插入做任何方向上的改變或不得不作妥協的事發生!
最初這首歌出自1961年的電影Breakfast at Tiffany's (第凡內早餐),由女主角Audrey Hepburn(奧黛麗·赫本)演唱,得到奧斯卡最佳歌曲及最佳配樂。到現在已經有無數歌手樂團翻唱了,當然有我最喜歡的 The innocense mission(純真樂團),而Andy Williams翻唱的版本出現在影集Sex in the City中。不過Audrey Hepburn的極簡風格更能深植人心。
附上歌詞: If a picture paints a thousand words, Then why can't I paint you? The words will never show the you I've come to know. If a face could launch a thousand ships, Then where am I to go? There's no one home but you, You're all that's left me too. And when my love for life is running dry, You come and pour yourself on me.
If a man could be two places at one time, I'd be with you. Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way. If the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die, I'd spend the end with you. And when the world was through, Then one by one the stars would all go out, Then you and I would simply fly away
me and all my friends we're all misunderstood they say we stand for nothing and there's no way we ever could now we see everything that's going wrong with the world and those who lead it we just feel like we don't have the means to rise above and beat it
so we keep waiting waiting on the world to change we keep on waiting waiting on the world to change
it's hard to beat the system when we're standing at a distance so we keep waiting waiting on the world to change now if we had the power to bring our neighbors home from war they would have never missed a Christmas no more ribbons on their door and when you trust your television what you get is what you got cause when they own the information, oh they can bend it all they want
that's why we're waiting waiting on the world to change we keep on waiting waiting on the world to change
it's not that we don't care, we just know that the fight ain't fair so we keep on waiting waiting on the world to change
and we're still waiting waiting on the world to change we keep on waiting waiting on the world to change one day our generation is gonna rule the population so we keep on waiting waiting on the world to change
we keep on waiting waiting on the world to change
Gravity lyrics
Gravity is working against me And gravity wants to bring me down
Oh I'll never know what makes this man With all the love that his heart can stand Dream of ways to throw it all away
Oh Gravity is working against me And gravity wants to bring me down
Oh twice as much ain't twice as good And can't sustain like one half could It's wanting more That's gonna send me to my knees (repeat)
Oh gravity, stay the hell away from me And gravity has taken better men than me you see now how can that be?
Just keep me where the light is Just keep me where the light is Just Keep me where the light is Come on keep us where the light is Come on keep me where, keep me where the light is
