Oasis - Live Forever voted best British song...EVER.

[levets]

Number 44 immediately disqualifies the voters as having no taste whatsoever.

Good shout… apart from that is a great chart!

According to Radio X listeners, that is.

What a dull bunch they must be. I like it, but it's not even Oasis best song. It's not even the best song of that year..month...week probably.

No 11 is the best on that list ;-)

Four in the Top 10, wow!

Nothing but thieves never heard of them.

Neither, it seems, has anyone else. Just looked them up on Metacritic and they don't even appear despite having four albums. The 'reception' section of their latest album shows a grand total of 3 professional reviews. Yet apparently they've written 5 of the best 100 songs ever written in the UK. Seems about as legitimate as a Goal of the Month vote with a scouser in it.

So just me happy that a Mancunian, City supporting band have been given a bit of recognition…

I guess it’s not just the football side of the forum that makes every fucker miserable.

Was one of my nominations in last years Song cup.

Reached Quater Final , knocked out by Depeche Mode Enjoy The Silence.

Couple of Noel Gallagher acoustic sessions of this one are just great.

Had it at the wedding, top track especially the acoustic version by Noel.

Well I must have stopped listening to music over a decade ago because I'd never even heard of 'Nothing But Thieves' until I looked at that list.

Just listened to the first 45 seconds of 'Overcome'. Gash.

I was the same. Had a listen to Overcome. It’s alright, but won’t be going on my playlist.

'Just bland' is as complimentary as I can be about it.

'Just bland' is as complimentary as I can be about it.

The chorus was a bit better and got more uplifting, but if that’s the cream of what is out there now, I don’t feel we’re missing that much.
