The first half of Be Here now, as it is, it's actually better than Definitely Maybe. Unfortunately, it starts to drag when it reaches "Fade In-out".
It almost feels like they released an extended version and forgot about the regular one. This could've been a 10/10 if they took 4-6 songs out or let only a couple of tracks over 5 minutes.
I mean, All Around the World is 9 minutes, is followed by a 7 minute song and then the album ends with a reprisal. It's absurd

Their music always seemed middle-of-the-road and nondescript to me - a bit too "Beatles Lite" and kinda dull - but then I'm not a fan of rock music in general :sweat2:

That said, I just went through some of their hit singles and I remembered pretty much all of them, so I guess they had "something" - though that could have just been too much airplay :xd:

This is my issue with them as well. wonderwall is their one unique contribution (and actually quite great)--when I started actually listening to their albums in full I was shocked. People actually think they were competitive with guys like Blur? Blur was actually doing something rather unique. Oasis as just part of that dead-end 60s nostalgia wave that haunted the 90s.

Don't Look Back in Anger is a better rock ballad, IMO
Honestly, i don't fully get the Beatles comparison, Oasis leans more heavily into the rock sound. They might be inspired by The Beatles, but not fully derivative
