At the recent Oasis's concerts at Nottingham 10th & 11th November, they played The Smiths. Hand In Glove was the song they played at the beginning of their intro tape before they arrived on stage. It was a great surprise with many people singing along.

  • I bet if The Smiths came from anywhere other than Manchester, then that oaf Noel Gallagher would slag em off like he does everyone else. I don't get how he is a fan - The Smiths are sensitive, Oasis anything but.

    And they keep getting worse - "Little by little" is totally grating to the ears, with Noel's awful nasal voice. Is there really any need for them to exist anymore?

  • May be people came for the intro tape and that's the reason why they did sing along. Or is Noel dreaming of having the Smiths as support band :)

    just 'cos youre not a fucking outcast librarian doesn't mean you cant like or identify with morrissey & the smiths. and come to think of it, who said you even had to identify with a band to be a fan? "morrissey is sensitive, oasis arent." oh youre real fucking sensitive, right? that's why youre jealous and hateful toward people you dont even know, and you judge everyone that isnt as sad as you are? youre as bad as those religious bastards, who preach & preach about how they arent judgemental, but theyre exactly that, and the biggest assholes youll ever meet. youre morrissey zealots, and you mis-translate everything you should be learning, just like the morons who translated the bible. it's people who say stupid shit like, "oasis are insensitive, they snort coke and curse, and just listen to the lyrics on 'supersonic'," it's you people who are missing the whole fucking point of anything morrissey says. it's not about knowing big words and flashing around all your innermost emotions to make sure everyone knows how "different in a good way" you are, or how strong you are 'cos youre sooo gentle & kind (my arse youre gentle & kind, youd have made better Nazi followers than smiths fans!). it's not about who's a bigger nerd or more dysfunctional or more strange. you shouldnt be so worshipful of morrissey anyway, dont you have enough self respect to think for yourself, instead of just being however you think morrissey wants you to be, liking whoever you think morrissey might like and hating those he might not? he's not christ, and if he was you still shouldnt be worshipping a man. at least oasis arent pretending to be people theyre not, and at least they make no secret of their drug habits or the fact that they arent real booksmart. and dont say they shouldnt brag about it, 'cos they dont, they just dont go out of their way to hide what they are, even if it's trash. under no circumstances should anybody should ever pretend to be anyone they arent, and that's what you all do when you call people assholes & youre assholes yourselves. you people pretend youre christlike because you think morrissey is christ and you want to be him. i hope youre vegetarian, by the way, 'cos if you arent, moz disapproves of you, as well. if you eat animals, youre cruel and insensitive in his mind, just like oasis are in your mind. you defend him so much, yet for all you know he would utterly despise you if only he knew you.
    and i hope your doc martens are made of something other than leather, and make sure all your household & personal products are animal friendly!!!! stupid. you should THINK before you blindly follow like sheep--youre the sort of people who'd join a cult if the leader tugged at your sensitive little heartstrings with an angsty tale you could identify with.
    and what horrible things do oasis really do that are so insensitive? they cant spell and they used to do lots of drugs, and they dont cry & bitch about the world in all their songs, but how do those things equal "insensitive?". have you ever met them, spent a day with them? do you really think that if you were to talk to them, they'd suddenly start telling you off and beating you up and shoving cocaine up your nose?have you ever spent a day with morrissey, are you sure you'd get along & be best friends, or would he hate you & stop answering the phone, like he does with most people? i guess you think oasis are insensitive 'cos they dont care to try to be your psychiatrists or your priests or saviors. they just write good songs about less miserable lives. and always remember that morrissey writes about HIS life, not yours, you just happen to identify with it. if oasis sing their life & it's a little brighter & a little 'badder' (yeah, we know it's not a word) than yours, you shouldnt be jealous & hate them, just accept that all the world is not dark for all people. and even fucking junkies have feelings, as do people who are uneducated. manic depressives arent the ONLY people who have emotions, they just have all of them at the same time, and while it's not a sin to wanna kill yourself, it's not a virtue either.
