About 20 years too late but have been listening to both tonight and love them both.

I'm guessing it'll be a bit one sided on here but just thought I'd ask, like...

Stone Roses better than either.

Blur blown away by both.

SUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNSHINE wins

Blur for me please, far more depth

oasis were fun when they burst onto the scene but the first two albums were all they had for me, they never developed truly in a musical sense

Blur moved with the times

Damon Albarn might have, but both Oasis and Blur died.

yeah you're probably right on that chum

but I do think blur's music was for more expansive than what oasis gave us

I loved 'em both, but Blur wins for me

About as one sided as Blair vs Major as a contest.

Cels · May 10, 2015

Both for me. Can't separate them.

to use a sitcom analogy...

blur = the office

well thought out, subtly layered and resonated with people all over the world as seen by the number of countries who went on to have their own version of ricky gervais' classic, no better example than the american series which went from strength to strength for years after the initial UK version had shown what path to take

oasis = phoenix nights

lots of fun but ultimately gave us max and paddy

Agree with your description of the office, but not sure I agree with using it as an analogy for Blur's success...
