Oasis are not just influenced by the Beatles; they actually take stuff. Then they get praised.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Oasis were the last great, traditional rock-n'-roll band. We came along before the Internet so, if you wanted to see us, you had to be there. It makes me feel like a righteous old man.
The Beatles just changed everything right across the board. They just had that right combination of clean-cut good looks - a cute band - but under that they had a real rock n' roll thing going on.
I thought if Oasis could get away with sounding like The Beatles, I could get away with sounding like Abba.
The Beatles are the most credible band in the history of music.
I was a big Oasis fan.
Anything to do with the Beatles is very complicated.
The Beatles were raw musically, but I think they really had something.
I don't think the Beatles were that good. I think they're fine, you know. Ringo's got the best backbeat I've ever heard... Paul is a fine bass player... but he's a bit overpowering at times.
I don't think anybody comes close to The Beatles, including Oasis.
We were very influenced by The Beatles, no question.
