Oasis Won the War
Damon Albarn and company may have won the war in 1995 when Blur’s “Countryhouse” beat Oasis’ “Roll With It,” but PRS for Music has found Oasis is leading in the end.
According to PRS’ research, Oasis is listened to more than Blur over the last 14 years.
The percentage of both groups’ combined plays, these songs are most popular:
Oasis – ‘Wonderwall’, 68%
Oasis – ‘Roll With It’, 12%
Blur – ‘Country House’, 10%
Oasis – ‘Some Might Say’, 7%
Blur – ‘Beetlebum’, 3%
Experts believe the war is still raging now that Blur has reunited. In the end it will be a mystery alongside how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tottsie Roll Pop. The world will never know.
