The Bluemoon Song Cup 2023

[hilts]

ETS is a hauntingly brilliant electro pop classic, with a stunning video.

Live forever is a rather simple pub rock song, that sounds great when belting it out in a field, after a few beers.

Both have played big parts in my life at different times. But, if you are judging on the quality of song, ETS pisses this.

Tad harsh on Oasis that but I agree ETS is the better song.

I really like both of these but ETS just shades it for me.

I love Live Forever and loved Oasis at the time. But if you take any emotional attachment away, ETS is clearly the better song.
Live Forever has Noels attempt at a John Squire guitar solo, yet the Martin Gore simple guitar riff even sounds better.
Deoeche Mode were using 1980's synths and technology, yet Live Forever sounds more dated.

Taking a deck chair up Scafell Pike deserves a vote

The bolded bit is as correct as correct can be.

I concur as well. Like LF but I like several other Oasis tunes more; ETS, though, is near the top of my Depeche Mode list and the song I'd listen to first vs. LF pretty much always. Onwards the Mode.

I love Oasis and I love Live forever. But Enjoy the silence is in my top 10 favourite songs of all time. I absolutely love that song, so ETS for me.

Enjoy The Silence all day. Love both songs but Depeche Mode hands down.
