At college I learned to play guitar to Wonderwall. Oasis were everything I loved about pop music. They could express emotions with the most simple song structures. They had the kind of brash attitude I could completely relate to.” 4 real???! lol it was reported a few weeks ago that OASIS had called it quits!…
