- Everyone knows that Noel & Liam Gallagher are heavily influenced by The Beatles. But what exactly is it about Oasis's music that makes it sound so 'Beatle-ish'?
And an extra special thanks goes to Daniel Long & Paul Peijzel, the channel’s Patreon saints! 😇

❗️CORRECTION: the song at 4:41 is ‘Whatever’ not ‘The Masterplan’. Thanks to “meg” for pointing that out.
@@465aj completely different chord progressions
He's right though, it's The Masterplan's chorus that has excactly same structure to Whatever's main riff. U 'll notice it if your playing Whatever's chords and start singin "Dance if you wanna dance.. etc." to it. It'll work.
Still think the author was a bit sloppy puttin the wrong title there in the video.
Aaron Jones well you’re wrong.
@@ChainNonSmoker Yeah should change that.
David Bennett Piano init haha
And the film Yesterday also spotted that in a world without the Beatles, Oasis doesn't exist either lol
I heard about that!
Yeah I thought that was pretty cool. Would've been even cooler if they had some oasis songs but understandable why they didnt.
@@IStarryZz It didn't make sense why he kept dreaming Wonderwall, I thought he was gonna sing that to the main girl at the end
Bit silly that considering there was only really supersonic with any beatle reference in the 1st album. Oasis were more like slade n the sex pistols on the 1st album. Pretty sure there wudda been an oasis, Noel wudda just ripped somebody else off for 2nd n 3rd album. There's a lot of pink Floyd in there that people don't pick up on
SUPERNOVA without Beatles no oasis because Liam would have never started singing, and he was the one who formed the band in the first place
Well if you’re gonna be influenced by someone the Beatles is a good pick
I know right!
Influenced? Gimme a break.
Jimbo MacKellar
Ok then ,you can have a break
No. It’s like being influenced by coffee. What are you going to make? Coffee-flavoured ice cream? Tia Maria cocktails? Original bands like XTC and Tears For Fears became tribute acts when they channelled The Beatles. Only genius managed it - that Prince album and Elliott Smith.
@@jimbocurtain it's really only a few songs that are blatant, they just happen to be some of their biggest songs lol
What makes Oasis sound like The Beatles?
- Their haircuts.
That wouldn't make them sound like the beatles... you can't hear hair...
@@h4rri3tt woosh
This is the first thing I thought too...but you have to include eyebrows....
No similar at all drummer had a perm and rhythm guitarist was near bald for god sakes and look at Liam’s and guigsys aswell only one similar at all is noel
Harriet Thompson r/woooosh
Love this guy. Straight to the point. No dillydallying
Cheers 😊
Same
Excellent cuz
Dillydallying??? Do you mean, "waste of time"? (gilberto lehrer - brazil)
Word to the point
*fairly easy deduction:*
*they sound like the Beatles because that's exactly who they wanted to sound like*
Gerry Berry ok boomer
Gerry Berry piss off would ya
I shit you not, I read the title and my out-loud response was: “because they wanted to...?”
@Gerry Berry I don't think they "sound like the beatles" either. I think they sound like they deliberately lifted riffs, melodies and harmonies from the beatles and made them less interesting and tried to pass them off as their own. Pretty shameful really.
Gerry Berry 😁😁😁
“Beatlish” my favourite word now.
Beatle-esque?
*See's The Beatles in the title*
Me: i'm definitely watching this
Meee
This comment section and especially your comment gave me new hope in humanity lol. Luv the Beatles
@@luna_feles4165 they are the best of the best
Same, with Oasis
@@marples8453 exactly the Beatles are the best
0:52 No joke, Don't look back in anger came on the radio and I thought it was Imagine
"Don't Look Back" is a much better song in my opinion. And Lennon hardly invented the I-IV chord change anyway. It's in a million songs, a musical cliche.
@Marvin Morawski For sure! I thought the same as the OP when I first heard it (the day the album was released) but quickly forgot because I thought the entire album was a depressing, boring mess compared to everything they released to that point. Swap almost every track from the album with literally every b-side from the album's four singles, and you have one of the greatest records ever made. ;)
@@Johnny-lr5jt Agreed, don’t look back in anger is far superior. Every section is better
@@Johnny-lr5jt I don't really like imagine much either
Oasis is for 90s music what Tarantino was for 90s cinema. Both reference and pay homage to the artists that inspire their art, and doing so, they created something really unique
exactly what I was thinking lol
@@thebasedgodmax1163 name me a band/ artist that were/are truly original and didn't rip anyone off?
Everyone is inspired by something, okay, but Oasis took it to ridiculous extremes. It's not just the Beatles they plundered, either. As for Noel Gallagher's "the Beatles were just doing what the Shirelles were doing five years before" - that could be the most idiotic thing he's ever said, and there's some stiff competition for that.
See great artists steal oasis copy it's not a homage it's just a rip off
You're wrong if you think Quentin pay homage to other artists.
Feel like Oasis ends up sounding a bit darker/warmer
And the Beatles sound brighter/upbeat
Thank you for mentioning lawsuits getting out of control. People should be allowed to be influenced by other music was the perfect way to say it.
A popular comparison is saying Oasis is cocaine and The Beatles are LSD
@@joshthurlow11 Or a Beatles tribute band for 90s car thieves.
@@elvisleeboy Ladies and gentlemen, we found an oasis hater
@@joshthurlow11 No, we don't, so your comment is meaningless.
Both of them sound melancholic, but the lyrics of oasis are muuuch better. Noel used to be a genious.
Oasis is proof that the beatles will be great in any era
I love the comment section ppl critizing oasis. Here it goes
-80 million records sold
- 8 UK n.1 albums
- 6 brit awards , 14 NMe awards , 9 Q awards, 4 EMTV awards, 2 ivor novellos, 3 grammy award nominations, 2 mercury nominations.
- Fastest selling album in the UK
-Biggest outdoor concert Knebworth
-More than 20 songs in the top10 uk charts.
- George Martin called Noel Gallgher "the best songwriter of his generation"
- Oasis has been main influence for Arctic Monkeys, Kasabian, The Libertines, Coldplay, The killers etc.
-Bothe Gallaghers continue having succesful solo careers and no.1 albums and world tours even after 25 years
None of that stops Oasis being shit though.
So they managed to get into the club.Oasis is cheese pizza with 2kg of extra cheese
@@heyhonpuds nice argument :))
Popularity/success doesn’t mean great or underserving criticism
@@heyhonpuds they wanted to be the next Beatles, that’s about the only similarity
One thing the Beatles had that Oasis never did... amazing melodic basslines and soaring high harmonies, both courtesy of Paul McCartney
dont forget john’s rhythm playing
The Beatles sound was driven by Paul and his bass. Oasis are driven by Noel and his guitar
A dunno man paul mcguigan was good in his own right, and created some really good bass lines
Yes, I also think that the bass is the weakest part of Oasis. It is funny because I play bass and Oasis is my favorite band
Oasis never had the tight harmonies, bass playing of McCartney or the original guitar of George harrison. And the great lead vocals
Lol. In 2019 they would’ve get sued by using C and F chords.
NO KIDDING. It's so disappointing.
@@brianwalendy3735 The melody was obviously a rip off. I used to laugh at Oasis when they became successful because they wanted to be as big as the Beatles (which is impossible) so badly they just blatantly copied them. Also hated their obnoxious personalities.
I mean they change it enough that I wouldnt call it copying. Ice ice baby on the other hand...
Ice Ice Baby is sampling, which is totally different
@@MICKEYISLOWD Oasis aren't blatantly copying Beatles, they are inspired by them, there's a huge difference
The Beatles and Oasis are like an older and a younger brother. They look up to the Beatles and got inspired by them, but they create their own songs. In one performance of Whatever they actually sing in one part of the song octopussys garden by the Beatles. It is absolutly amazing!
They sing I'd like to be under the sea in an octopuses garden at the end of the masterplan as well
A younger adopted step brother
octopussy
That's a pathetic take.
People can look up to others, even relatives, and not copy them.
Look at the difference between Jacyb Dylan & his dad's work.
The guitar solo in Supersonic is based from George's My Sweet Lord. I love both songs
Oasis used to literally sing Octopus’s Garden during Whatever during concerts
Yeah but that was just them covering it they didn't claim it was theirs.
Although, saying that I never realised how much 'I Am The Walrus' sounds pretty similar to another Beatles song.
@@tomfinn8954 xD what a idiot
@@tomfinn8954 ringos song
@Marvin Morawski shaker maker barley sounded like that coke commercial. Lol
Yep, remember being 11 at their 10 years of noise and confusion gig in Glasgow and wondering where the fuck Octopus's Garden came from!
Liam Gallagher is literally the biggest fan of John Lennon, so yeah it’s gonna be similar 😂
Malcolm OSX even noel gallagher was a biggest john lennon fan he write the song.
Shirley Knot Liam literally loves John Lennon, he’s said so many times
Billy Idol and Ozzy Osbourne are both HUGE Lennon fans as well, to just name a couple more.

Liam and Noel Gallagher
Ozzy Osbourne
Kurt cobain
Billie joe armstrong
Chris cornell
Freddie mercury
yea he also named his kid after johns last name lennon
Fun fact... "Don't look back in Anger" is also a nod to David Bowie's "Look back in Anger" recorded in 1979. Oasis cited in interviews that he was another major influence, and that this song has a "All the young dudes" (another song Bowie wrote) feel to it.
Noel also plays an electric guitar riff in the song which is identical to ‘all the young dudes’ it’s present through the whole song but really audible in the last chorus and bridge 👍
UA-cam generated the subtitles and understood “the wasters” instead of “Oasis” 😂
I see no coincidence here
All Around The World is a very Beatles influenced song, and the video is basically Yellow Submarine
you are basing that on the videos being similar they sound nothing alike
@@raycroalnothing at all
hey jude
And don't forget the latest part,
Na na na nanana na naa na na nanana
...and Hey Jude:
Naaa na na nananana nananana
Plus reprise versión at the end of CD
@Rudy Overlord but hey jude doesnt have key changes ..and its a blues tonic to it..which that song doesnt have..
Up in the Sky sounds very very similar to Rain.
What in the all living hell are you doing here
Map men, map men, map map map men men men
Hello Paper Back Writer mate?
I've noticed the beatles mentioned from you but I didn't expect to see you here
That's true but when are you putting out new music again?
Apparently Liam had yelled out loud “I am john lennon” when he was drunk.
He’s the modern day John Lennon
Doesn’t come close to Lennon....the Gallaghers are just wannabes.
Łîłłÿ Çøøpęr lol what you smoking
Haha he will never be John Lennon, the Gallagher’s are two kids playing dress up
@@Gino565 Lennon also released Revolution No 9 though, every artist has their pitfalls. For Oasis I'd say they still had some damn good tunes past the 2000s
Amazing video, only thing I’ll point out is the short clips pointing out the use of orchestral arrangements around the 4:40 mark, the tag for the oasis song says it is “The Masterplan” but the track playing at that point is a b side from Definitely Maybe entitled “Whatever” which ironically enough they used to sing the lyrics of Octopus Garden over the outro of “Whatever” when playing it live. Great content, love all you do
The intro reminds me of when some people think Imagine is by The Beatles 😂
well, 'Imagine' is by 𝘢 Beatle
@@DavidBennettPiano but John didn't believe in Beatles, he just believed in himself...
@@DavidBennettPiano so it's ok to keep this kind of people confused?
I would have put that example towards the end of the video...
@@MachiavellisThePrince ...and in Yoko.
@@aheendwhz1 beat me to it 😁😁. That's reality.
The Beatles had very different and varied approaches to their songs, while Oasis was a pretty straight-ahead guitar-heavy band. But Oasis was definitely influenced heavily by the Beatles, and they never denied it. Love both bands.
I've only just discovered your channel and I have to say it's brilliant. I've been listening to both bands for the last 25 years I've noticed little similarities between them. But now I'll listen to them differently from now on. Keep up the good work.
I love this topic! She's Electric is one my favourite Oasis songs but I'd never pinpointed those specific Beatles similarities and seeing them now it's so obvious!
fan_n1 I know right! Me neither until I began to research this
She’s Electric also has some inspiration from The Kinks “Wonderboy”
@@geofourletour more like a whole segment just transplanted from it
I caught it the first time I ever heard it, that's how blatant that song is.
The drum loop at 3:08 actually reminded me more of Ticket to Ride than Tomorrow Never Knows.
True
Yes,exactly!
same
I agree
I feel ye. And I've always thought the verse drum parts on Fleetwood Macs' 'Go Your Own Way', has a similar feel too!
In the immortal words of Noel Gallagher, "Er, um, y'know. I like cocaine."
I’m surprised Yoko hasn’t slapped them with a lawsuit.
She is too savvy for that. She knows imitation is the sincerest form of flattery and that many people will go and seek out the originals and become John and Beatles fans. She even invited Liam to see her at the dakota
nickdryad she's a gold digger
@@blondeboy9288 For a billionaire, she mined quite well. (struck gold with Lennon, is more like it).
Yoko did break up the Beatles, don’t know why you angry left wing bros can’t understand that.
@Marvin Morawskithere are none. I remember some clown saying that whatever ripped off strawberry fields forever lol. What a load of rubbish.
I never would have realised the parallels between she’s electric/ while my guitar gently weeps/ with a little help
Frankly I never realized the similarity between Falling Down and Tommorow Never Knows so I guess we're even
There’s a certain comfort feeling I get whenever I listen to Oasis
I get it listening to The Throggs.
Just found your videos yesterday, really good stuff man.👍
Noel's song writing philosophy must be "start with a 5 second section of a Beatles song and then the rest falls into place."
the song at 4:41 isn’t the masterplan, it’s ‘whatever’
meg oh bugger, well spotted! I mislabelled the clip. I’ll pin a correction. Thanks!
David Bennett Piano no worries! great video :)
Although The Masterplan has some nice strings too.
shut up meg
@@its_only_abel no u nigga
Good video. Tbh, as a big fan of Oasis and an even bigger Beatles fan, it's always annoyed me the somewhat lazy way in which people tend to label the former as rip-offs of the latter, when the vast majority of their sound, chord sequences, arrangements and melodies are nothing like The Beatles. It's just, as you say, they wear their influences very much on their sleeves. And it's usually just a riff here or outro there, a pretty obvious homage, rather than an entire song they're copying. Their most blatant rip was probably for Cigarettes & Alcohol, where the intro is literally the riff to Get It On by T-Rex, but after this riff is finished the rest of the song is completely different. And it's not like they don't expect people to notice this stuff; it's deliberate.
In my opinion the Beatles influence is pretty superficial; lots of lyrical references and the odd hook or arrangement. Their more pertinent influences are bands like The Stone Roses or a lot of the shoegazer bands, as their first two albums are awash with distorted guitars and that "wall of sound" sort of production. There's also a heavy blues influence, which can also remind you of The Beatles, because of those distinct dominant 7 chords. Pretty much every Brit Pop band was heavily influenced by 60s British Invasion music, it's just some of them were maybe a bit smarter about it than the Gallaghers, who really just wanted to make good rock 'n roll music.
Jamston Julian mate you hit every point spot on. I couldn’t agree more
I agree - with regards to the shoegaze point oasis on the first 3 albums always attempted to create a wall of sound in a way not too dissimilar to slowdive on when the sun hits for example. If I were to name a single band pre-oasis who sound the most similar to them I'd probably go with their creation labelmates Teenage Fanclub
@Jamston Julian I completely agree. In fact, I've long thought that Noel specifically brought up the Beatles all the time to distract from the more obvious Stone Roses influence.
Yep!!!!! Perfect comment on the Oasis - Beatles comparison.
And while we're at it their hair styles also looked alike LOL.
Jamston Julian, Well Said Mate!!! I've been a Fan Since 94' & Never Thought Oasis Sounded Like The Beatles!!! People Jumped ON Board Only Because McGee & Oasis Said They Wanted To Be The Next Beatles!!! OK Everyone Knows Noel Has Stolen A Line/Riff Here & There!!?? But Personally I Think They Sounded (Nearly!?) Like The Beatles' Earlier Stuff On DM & Their Latter Stuff On DBTT & DOYS!!!! Thanks For A Good Read & Comment!! Cheers Mate
This just made me realize how brilliant the Beatles actually were.
Led Zeppelin = MC2
As if you couldn't tell simply by listening?
Great vid. I think Noel is a genius in his own right. We all need influences. There is a Beatles reference in the song Be Here Now. 'Sing a song for me, one from Let It Be'
I´m a Beatles fan and I love Oasis.
Anyway, a lot of fans of The Beatles despised and some still despise Oasis because of that big lie of "Oasis is a copy of The Beatles"
The excuse ? It´s always the same: the intro of Don´t Look Back In Anger.
Oasis put in their melodies some "touches" of Lennon&McCartney melodies, but they always had their OWN SOUND.
If somebody is going to listen to Oasis for the first time thinking he´ll listen to a "new version of The Beatles" he´ll get a big surprise when he listens to Definitely Maybe.
I don´t understand why a lot of people put Oasis in an underrated place because they think "they copied or stole from The Beatles" when that´s not true.
Those of us that belong to the Oasis generation, saw them live and bought their records, know very well it was not like that.
Some tribute to The Beatles in some lyrics ? Maybe.
Some arrangements ? Maybe.
But Oasis WAS AND WILL ALWAYS BE OASIS, they were not at all a copy of The Beatles.
VINYLBEATLES well said
VINYLBEATLES. Think it's time you invested in a hearing aid.
To me, Oasis sounded a bit like the Beatles, only in their album Morning Glory. The rest of the albums, they have their own sound.
So many good facts, here. Gosh, look at Liam and Noel’s hair when they started in Oasis. So Beatle-ish. And Zak Starkey drumming for them. Ringo’s kid. 🎸🥁🎤
Their hair was really a Ramones reference
Just discovered this channel the other day and can't get enough, David. Great work! By the way, are you saying "bruvers"?
Who Feels Love has a guitar part which is similar to Lucy In The Sky’s intro. Furthermore, the vocals reminisce to Rain’s inverted coda. Thank you very much for your videos, I am learning a lot with them
Oasis and every single rock band is influenced by The Beatles
Even Queen!
What about The Beatles? They don't exist in a vacuum.
I love the beatles but they didn't invent rock and roll.
nooneknows and no they invent an entirely new genre
Influenced is fine but is copying actual parts of songs and styles? Still they made loads of money out of it so that’s ok.
@@duchess5218 yeah pop rock
It's great how you made this a very fair video about the Beatles influence on Oasis's music. I may not love Oasis like I used to, but it was nice to see you reference the songs that had some similarities to the Beatles tracks, especially 'She's Electric' which is still my favourite Oasis song.
As well as Imagine, 'Don't Look Back in Anger' has a similar chord progression to 'Let it Be'.
Not necessary to point out. The I - V - vi - IV progression is EVERYWHERE, and c major is a really common key for it
Oasis was always paying homage to The Beatles. They never made it a secret that they were massive Beatles fans.
Oasis took the Beatles sound and developed their own take on it and made it completely their own.
The Oasis music from more than 25 years ago still holds up and will be timeless in much the same way the Beatles music is.
Some music, you just never grow tired of listening to. The Beatles and Oasis are perfect examples of that.
Great video! Loved the way you showed how the songs where similar
anyone who knows anything about oasis knows they are the biggest most hardcore beatles stans (you can never so don't try), liam even named his son lennon
All Around The World has a "na na na" portion in it, and the beginning of Shakermaker has a heavy I Am The Walrus Vibe. They've also covered three Beatles songs, You've Got To Hide Your Love Away, I Am The Walrus, and Helter Skelter.
The aaaaaaaaaaaaah-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah of Shakermaker is the same as Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds
Great channel. I play everything by ear so I'm delving into theory. Big help. Keep up the great work.
Nice video, most folk know a couple of these, but you have compiled so many references rather brilliantly, and I certainly learnt alot more about The Beatles music and words popping up in Oasis tunes
ChubbyChecker182 thanks!
I have to myself that Oasis has always paid tribute to the Beatles, Oasis really saved the late 90's, Oasis brings the Beatles to our lives forever .. And that has been and always will be wonderful.
One thing I missed in your explanation was the use of cadences. For example, for lack of a better term, I call it “sharpening the dominant chord”. For example, if a song is in C Major, a normal cadence would be F>G>C, but Beatles would sometimes go F>G#>C. Another example exists, which I’ll call “Majoring the Dominant-Parallel”. If the song is in C Major, the dominant parallel would be E Minor, but the Beatles would play it as E major. Eg C>E>F>G>C (all major). These cadences can be heart often in oasis music also.
Hi. A wonderful video. Would it be possible for you to perhaps make a follow-up to this which looks in more detail at more of the melodies and chord-progressions that could be argued is inspired by the Beatles?
Oasis’ “The Shock Of The Lightning”
...love is a litany / a Magical Mystery ...

@@Lglover3 Study this case and then come back and tell us how smart the justice system is on the issue of music copyright. ua-cam.com/video/0ytoUuO-qvg/v-deo.html Your argument is like saying "muggers are brilliant ... and morally justified" because they're really good at whacking you over the head and stealing your wallet.
Yeh bean genius lawyers they may be but trained musicologists they are not. Should call in the experts for relevant cases.
@@somaticjet2717 The problem is that the expert witness they used in the first Dark Horse trial (Todd Decker) is crook who receives expert witness cash for making disingenuous arguments that are threatening to turn all songwriting into a cash cow for predator lawyers who have no morality or musicality.

Others that are almost as bad are the silly Taurus/Stairway to Heaven one (Henry Purcell should be the plaintiff in that one - or at least Richard Rodgers!) and of course the ridiculous out of court settlement that the holder of Chuck Berry's copyrights won against John Lennon for starting come together with an homage quote. The whole thing is deeply evil.
@@Lglover3 The best response to this is in the Aussie TV show Rake, where the guy routinely and successfully defends ridiculously guilty clients. When challenged he says something like "You're wrong! I care deeply about the law, I just don't care about justice" (this being after he got a cannibal off). These copyright lawyers are very much cannibals.
Great video, and something I've noticed looking back was how the 90s kinda brought back that classic sound, as opposed to the more "electronic" sound and reverb snares of the 80s. Also not a bad band to be influenced by at all!
Hey man! Love your videos! Im super curious if youre using some fancy new plugin to isolate the vocals or if youre just using old school phase cancellation? They sound so clear with no artifacts! Or you just have multi-tracks of those songs kicking around? 😂😂😂 cheers and keep up the good work!
Great analysis. Keep up the good work.

You are correct!
They don't really sound like The Beatles. They sound like they WANT to sound like The Beatles.
@Luke Guess that's your opinion, but I see it differently. McCartney's musical genius alone, whether in composing, arranging, or performing, dwarfs Oasis.
How many legendary musicians rave about the ground-breaking innovation, influence, and creative brilliance of Oasis?
Objectively speaking, one group has a legacy that reaches far beyond their time and genre, and the other has the Gallaghers. Really no comparison at all, IMO.
@Luke take Michael Stipe out and listen to Peter Buck's melodies. You'll see some Oasis there. But REM is heavy influenced by Yardbirds and Neil Young :)
What’s so good about that statement is that’s how basically every artist finds their own sound- by trying to sound like their favourite artist/band and failing, therefor creating what is their ‘sound’
Yeah exactly
Oasis blowz
Great video, enjoyed it!

God bless you. What a great video with a great point you made about influences of music and the ongoing conversation through the generations on into the future. It’s beautiful shouldn’t be in the court

I literally just realised that I’m pretty sure Yesterday the film takes a dig at Oasis. As when the main character types in the Beatles they do not exist and then the same with Oasis. Suggesting that Oasis wouldn’t exist without the Beatles

When I learned "Don't Look Back in Anger", it wasn't just the intro, but also the chord changes throughout the song that made it feel like I was playing a Beatles/Lennon copy. But as long as you're open about it and use it with appreciation I think it's fine.
Very well done video
Thank you very much for this wonderful content!!!
well done, David
Really great video ! I would like to see you do a video about some tricky, inventive chords progressions. I think Arctic Monkeys are really great at that (especially the last album where they get some jazzy vibes, for example : Golden Trunks, She Looks Like Fun, Anyways the b-side. Their older stuff as well where they get easier chords progressions but it's still inventive and surprising for example : Only Ones Who Know, No1 Party Anthem...) It'll be very interesting I think. Anyways, thank you for your videos it's always nice.
I'm always amazed at the lack of serious critical analysis of Arctic Monkeys music. They're immensely talented musicians. Alex Turners lyrics too just blow my mind. I know they're really famous and everything but I still feel they are kind of weirdly underrated.
Top notch video mate
It would be great if you did a video where you analysed the chords and melody notes Noel is hitting over them to create the sound they do.
'Love is a litany, a magical mystery'
Oasis - 'The Shock Of The Lightning'
Oh yes. I forgot that one. Also sing a song for me one from let it be from Be here now, I'd like to be under the Sea from Take me away and Go let it out go let it in is like Hey Jude
Shakermaker all great songs
'The fool on the hill and I feel fine'. An actual Oasis lyric
Damn that song is such a banger
Follow up video idea: all the times the Beatles were influenced by Oasis.
fken lol
I watched recently this documentary about the L.A. Laurel Canyon rock scene in the 60's. In it, Beach Boy's Brian Wilson talks about the album Pet Sounds which is famous for influencing Paul McCartney (and The Beatles) to do Penny Lane and to a lesser extent Sgt. Pepper, as I understand it. However, Brian Wilson said in that film that he was influenced by The Beatles's Rubber Soul (or was it Revolver?) to do Pet sounds! It goes around and around. I wouldn't doubt for a second that Paul McCartney was influenced by Oasis on his more recent works.
@@AndyFunke It was Rubber Soul.
@@duffbaker9554 Ah Yes! Awesome.
Even though the Beatles are like 40 years older than oasis
I saw this interview where Noel said he just sits there and songs fall out of the sky. Presumably Lucy dropped them down to him.
Liam puts on a casually voice like John, noel wears granny glasses, they have the Beatles hair cuts, and yeah the song influences as well
Amazing video! I just think I spotted an error, at 4:46 I believe those strings are from the song Whatever? cheers!
yeah, somebody else has already spotted that! I've pinned a correction. Thanks for the comment though.
@@DavidBennettPiano Thanks for your videos man! keep the great work!
Forgot about “Free As a Bird” and “Let There be Love”
Produced by Jeff Lynne who's music is way more Beatlesque Oasis will ever be. I just don't get the comparison . Except for a piano intro on one song!
Free As A Bird is an original John Lennon song, adapted by the surviving members of the beatles for the anthologies.
@@littlekicks5911 yes it was the original John Lennon vocals matched with the 3 surviving Beatles who played in the studio 30 years later. All blended together and produced inbtye studio by Jeff Lynne.
I don't think John sounds anything like Nat King Cole????????????????????
Brill video essay, love this
🙏🙏🙏🙏
This was a really good video, thanks
Another reference is that the guitar solo in “Roll it over” is similar and definitely inspired by “Come together”
5:58 "sing a song for me, one from let it be" from be here now
On that same album the song "D'ya Know what I mean" has the line: 'Fool on the hill and I feel fine'. BRILLIANT!!!!
zzyzx00 and George Harrison has a song called “be here now” and album called “Wonderwall Music” and David Bowie has a song called “look back in anger”
Sing a song do it now, one from be here now
'An ongoing conversation over generations"...me likey! Nicely put.
I LOVE your channel.
Great video
The Beatles & Oasis, two of the most greatest musical bands ever. Timeless music.
beatles are leagues above oasis
The chord changes in the bridge of Listen Up are exactly the same to the Beatles It Won’t Be Long. I don’t know if anyone else has ever picked that up
And live forever it's because Noel was listening Exile on Main St., and the melody it's from Shine a Light. "From the goodtimes..." and "Maybe".
