Time Flies....1994 - 2009 was the second Greatest Hits compilation from Oasis. 'Stop The Clocks' came out in 2006 as the first Greatest Hits album, but only featured 18 tracks which were chosen by Noel Gallagher and came about at the end of their record contract with Sony. Time Flies...1994-2009 got released on the 14th June 2010 containing all 27 singles the band had released between 1994 and 2009 including 'Whatever and 'Lord Don't Slow Me Down' which had never appeared on any previous Oasis studio album. 'Sunday Morning Call' is not listed on the official tracklisting, but appears as a hidden track on the end of Disc 2 making it track 14, so I've decided to allow it in the rate.

12. Roll With It - 26.09%

Released as a single on the 14th August 1995, 'Roll With It' is the second single from the bands second studio album '(What's The Story) Morning Glory'. In a highly publicised chart battle with Blur's single "Country House" dubbed "The Battle of Britpop", "Roll with It" reached number 2 on the UK Singles Chart losing out to Blur selling 216,000 copies to 274,000 copies sold of 'Country House'.

In 2019, Noel Gallagher reflected on the battle on Dermot O'Leary's Reel Stories, describing both songs as "shit" and proclaiming that "'Roll with It' has never been played by anybody since the band split up". He suggested that a chart race between Oasis's "Cigarettes & Alcohol" and Blur's "Girls & Boys" would have had greater merit. 'Roll With It' is like several other Oasis songs, such as "Supersonic", in that it preaches the importance of being yourself.

'Roll With It' is the first of four tracks from the album '(What's The Story) Morning Glory' to be eliminated from this rate.



The chart so far.....

27. Who Feels Love? - 26.83%
26. Lord Don't Slow Me Down - 21.95%
25. Sunday Morning Call - 18.75%
24. Falling Down - 10.94%- 47.06% Tiebreak
23. She Is Love - 21.43%
22. Lyla - 19.05%
21. The Shock Of The Lightning - 25.00%
20. Go Let It Out - 20.00%
19. Let There Be Love - 42.11%
18. I'm Outta Time - 30% - Tiebreak 64.71%
17. D'You Know What I Mean? - 31.82%
16. All Around The World - 38.10%
15. The Hindu Times - 41.67%
14. Shakermaker - 50.00%
13. Songbird - 41.67%
12. Roll With It - 26.09%

Voting time again to stop one of the remaining tracks from making the Top 10. You have until Thursday.

I've been pondering over what I'm going to vote for next for the past few days and I'm going to have to regrettably go with 'Some Might Say' this time. So difficult now!

I've went for 'Little By Little' but as Gav says it's extremely difficult now, trying to think beyond my personal opinion and to legacy of the song now.

Little by Little, there are still 4/5 tracks that are not as good as the rest

It would be a shame for 'Little By Little' to miss out on the Top 10. I think it's the best single from the 'Heathen Chemistry' era. LBL going would mean there would only be two post 2000 tracks in the Top 10.

Little By Little to go please!

Stand By Me and Stop Crying Your Heart Out need to go too...

Little By Little again.

You’re wrong with the commentary, there were only 4 tracks from What’s The Story here, not 5.
