Considering the always volatile and contentious relationship among brothers Noel and Ian Gallagher, the idea that Oasis would ever reunite seemed unlikely. But here we are in 2025\/6, and the \u201890s superstar hitmakers have not only reunited, but by most accounts seem to be getting along well (or at least keeping any sniping out of the press). For fans who love Oasis\u2019 music, these are very welcome developments.<\/p>\n
With more than 75 million albums sold, the English band ranks among the most best-selling artists of all time. In their original run, Oasis released seven studio albums, two live sets, and many singles and videos. Their sound combined then-trendy Britpop textures with a distinctively classic rock mindset that drew unashamedly from the band\u2019s heroes, most notably the Beatles and Sex Pistols. They scored many hits, but their most substantial success came with their first and second albums. In celebration of the 30th anniversary last October of their second album (What\u2019s the Story) Morning Glory<\/em> \u2013 and of the current reunion \u2013 here\u2019s a roundup of Oasis\u2019 five biggest smashes, all written by guitarist Noel Gallagher and voiced in brother Liam\u2019s inimitable style.<\/p>\n \u201cSupersonic\u201d from Definitely Maybe<\/em> (1994)<\/strong>
\nReleased in April 1994, the debut single from Oasis appeared in stores four months ahead of their first album. Technically a demo recording, \u201cSupersonic\u201d nonetheless was released by the band\u2019s UK label, Creation Records. The song was written and recorded in a single day at very minimal cost. On its release, the tune charted in four countries, going double-platinum in the UK. In the U.S., \u201cSupersonic\u201d rose to the No. 18 position on Billboard<\/em>\u2019s Hot Singles Sales chart.<\/p>\n
