Posted July 26, 200618 yr So the Oasis compilation is gonna be an 18 track best of rather than a straight list of the 25 or so singles. so what singles gets on to the album alongside the best b-sides and album tracks and what gets dumped :lol:
July 26, 200618 yr Oasis best of for Christmas 25 July 2006 - 13:40:01 Big Brother is to release the first Oasis best of compilation in time for the Christmas market. Stop The Clocks, an 18-track double album of songs chosen by the band, will be released on November 20. The album will include many of the band's singles, from debut Supersonic to 2005's The Importance Of Being Idle, as well as two B sides - Acquiesce and Half The World Away. After a 10-month tour in support of recent album Don't Believe The Truth, the band will be on sabbatical at the time of the release of Stop The Clocks, prior to working on new material.

July 26, 200618 yr http://www.oasisinet.com/Images/blanners/banner12.jpg Oasis have been at the helm of the worlds music scene for over ten years and, on November 20th 2006 the first ever Oasis retrospective will draw together the years of multi platinum albums, Number One singles and, unique to Oasis, instantly familiar B sides into one 18 track double album entitled Stop the Clocks. Furthermore, this collection has been chosen by the band themselves - the songs they believe encapsulate their remarkable career to date. Oasis are widely regarded as the defining rock n roll band of the last decade, bestriding the music world since the release of debut single, Supersonic in 1994 to the current day whilst claiming a host of records for their own. Second album, What's The Story, (Morning Glory), from which several of the tracks here are drawn, remains the highest ever certified album at 14 x platinum whilst their combined album sales total close to, a remarkable 40 million sales worldwide. Unlike most albums of this nature, Oasis have sat down and undertaken the almost impossible job of picking what they consider to be their finest moments ever. So Stop The Clocks is imbued with the sort of wilfulness that has helped make Oasis the favourite band of millions of people worldwide and its running order will no doubt provoke equal parts adulation and bar discussions from the millions of Oasis fans worldwide. Could it ever be any other way? Stop The Clocks includes the definitive greatest B side ever, Acquiesce, evoking memories of the White Room performance that so many regard as Oasis greatest music television moment. Also present is Half The World Away, another B side that became instantly recognisable to all in the UK for its use as the theme music of TVs The Royle Family. Then come the singles, a stream of contemporary classics starting with Supersonic and moving on to anthems such as Wonderwall, as well as more recent moments such as The Importance of Being Idle. These songs explain in an instant why Oasis remain cover stars worldwide as well as being continuously name checked by contemporary bands as their greatest influence. Having spent 10 months on the road in support of the 2 million selling Don't Believe The Truth, Stop the Clocks is released as Oasis take a well earned sabbatical prior to starting work on new material, destined for similar levels of success in the future. As such, this is not a full stop, but merely a time out; a dream set list, and a chance for the world to review the immense contribution that Oasis have made and continue to make to rock n roll. Stop The Clocks - the definitive collection, chosen by the band. What's your definitive collection? Oasisinet.com Edited July 26, 200618 yr by Jez

August 12, 200618 yr i hate a hits album that doesnt have all the hits,it should have them all or none i think No it is far better like this if you ask me. Not all of their single are worthy to be on a "Best of" collection and that is why some of left off. -_-
August 13, 200618 yr Will the new song Stop the clocks be released as a single? Well considering Noel said it was the best song he had ever written i'd like to think so ^_^ The Boy with the blue is also meant to be great so hopefully will also be released. :yahoo:
August 13, 200618 yr i would think we will get 2 new singles of the album as they will be the promotional tool,the album will sell very well i think also
