Stop Crying Your Hearts Out, Fans
Okay, so we all own the studio albums by Oasis. This is what the band considers to be their best work, which is really what a "best of" is about, more so than what we as fans consider their best, since we all have our favorites. It's an excellent crash course for anyone who is only knows "Wonderwall," which is a lot of people. I convinced many friends to pick this up in order to get them into Oasis and now they love them so it serves its purpose. I think it's an awesome collection of songs, even though many of my favorites aren't on it but it's not like I don't already own them. Personally, I think the DVD is worth the cost alone but if you want to complain about the track listing, it's listed here and on the back of the CD so if you don't like it, don't buy it. Plain and simple.

This is a "HITS" collection?
Being a fairly standard fan of OASIS, and patiently waiting for a "Best of...or "Greatest Hits" ---this compilation is MISSING greats like"Don't Go Away","Roll with It","Little by Little","Hindu Times","All Around the World","Stop Crying your Heart Out","Whatever" ...(and a few more obvious?!)....wait for more of an anthology from the band --this isnt worth it

Alot is missing...
I guess somebody forgot that Oasis released an album called Be Here Now in 1997. I guess that certain somebody also forgot what a good album that was. Not one song from that record is represented here. Only one song from HeathenChemistry! Pathetic! This CD is strictly for non-fans.

A Casual Oasis Fan's Pot o' Gold
This is a fantastic collection of Oasis songs, but there are just too many good Oasis tunes over their 12 years to condense their career thus far into a single CD. Any solid Oasis fan knows this. Their best album is still the gritty, in-your-face "Definitely Maybe" from 1994 (which is better than Nirvana's "Nevermind" any way one slices it). Nonetheless, this compilation is for those who have not followed Oasis after the "Morning Glory" album of 1995. Oasis's strength, beyond the albums, had always been their B-sides, which are better than most current band's A-sides. As with other band's greatest hits (i.e. REM, Nirvana), there are no new songs on this album in order to shamelessly market it--just a couple B-sides and an unreleased A-Side that a fan in the USA may never have been exposed to. Kudos to Noel Gallagher for his choice to respect Oasis fans rather than bilking them for $15.00 in order to get ONE new song! In essence, it's a great CD for the casual fan; for hardcore Oasis folks, like me, it's not needed. But it's an automatic 5 stars. Just cool to know they're still an elite, significant group worldwide.
