Until then, why not listen to an album with an idea or two of it's own.

Then maybe, when you're older, you'll stop listening to Blur and Oasis.

I find it ironic you attack his grammar but you don't even know the appropriate usage of an apostrophe. You're a poor excuse for a grammar snob.

Oh wow insult my bad grammar you got me.
Maybe you should spend less time worrying about my bad grammar and more time not coming off so close minded. There is nothing wrong with either band. Also, try to develop a sense of humor you'd enjoy it and maybe you would see that this

Getting a little defensive are we?
You saw the punch-line, but you missed the point.

If you would like specific reasons to mock me, I'm easy.
>I have no real future.
>I lost a lot of my mind to a decade of drug abuse.
>I didn't graduate high-school, my girlfriend did for me.
>I have nothing better to do with my time then work, drink, and waste away behind a macbook on my patio watching old episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer back to back to back.
>I like Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
>I have been playing guitar for ten years and still have "grabby-thumb"
>I live in a 600 square foot apartment with my crazy girlfriend, her 6 rats, 3 cats and 1 bird.
>I sometimes sit when I pee.
>I haven't taken a shower in four days.
>I have slightly off center bottom teeth.
>I have credit card debt.
>I read comics.
>I'm not pretty.
>I'm a bit short.
>I smoke.
>I drink too much.
>And I can't stand when you try to tell me that a band like Blur is worth listening to. Throw on Atlas Strategic, The Books, Modest-Mouse (before Float On), The New Pornographers, anything you can't find at a ****ing Wal-Mart before telling me that Blur can possibly, at any point, be worth drowning out Buffy for.

oasis are a pale imitation of what they could have been after their first two albums, in my opinion nothing since has lived up to the hype surrounding them. But in some sort of Primal Scream-esque eternal forgiveness from the public, they are allowed to make **** albums whilst people still adore them. Blur are one of those bands who are very well known, yet not many people know as much by them as they should.

But I also would like to know... what bandwagon has Blur jumped on?

Shoe gazing music and manc scene was popular in 89-90 as early blur left middle class colleges and friends got them a deal and the record company liked the manc scene so made them record 'no other way' and dress all flowery. They did what they were told.
That is jumping on the bandwagon.
Secondly they put off the release of country house to get Oasis rivalry with roll with it (a waeker song off the album) to grow their own sales and make people aware of them.
Hence the still touted comparison.
That is hopping on two different musical bandwagons and riding them till they split and moving on.

When people knock Oasis remember that a bands explosion will always be biggest but they have some hits like I said with sunday morning call, let there be love, stop crying your heart out, stand by me etc.
Black Sabbath only ever did one song paranoid and made a career from it.
Oasis couldn't be expected to sing about the same things forever could they?
Bowie didn't, the stones make new albums and we never hear a single song from them as they tour with the oldies.
