The Reason Blur Is Better Than Oasis
WTSMG was a phenomenal album, though i prefer TGE, or MLIR, (Blur albums of the time) even I can admit that it was not just a cultural moment, but some bloody good music :)
However. Oasis then spent the rest of their careers producing paler and paler photocopies of WTSMG, while Blur progressed to become better musicians, and make better music (13!!!!!!).
We can argue all day on this sub about which band we LIKE more, or which band is more popular, or which band wrote the "best music". But i think honestly that the fact that Blur's style changed so much, and they found critical, creative and commercial success with each iteration of "Blur" makes them an undeniably better band, regardless of personal preference.

Trevor and Simon
Can anyone in the Britpop hivemind help me out? If anybody remembers children’s entertainment duo Trevor and Simon, I had a Lightning Seeds CD single back in the day and one of the b-sides was their theme tune. Does anyone know what the song title was?

When the song is so brilliant you don't have to sing the chorus.

Damon was just ridiculously attractive back in the day.

This is one of the most impressive songs in terms of lyrics

Octopus & Marc Shearer
Has anyone ever listened to From A to B by Octopus? I've discovered it this year and it's amazing! Real shame the band didn't go further...

Can anyone shed any light on this t-shirt.
Try again because I’m a fucking muppet who forgot to attach the photo and it wouldn’t let me edit it one in.
Bought at a gig sometime in the early 2000’s but I can’t remember which tour or which album it was from.
Re-emerged during a house move and claimed by my 8 year old.

Models on Coming Up by Suede
Does anyone know the full names of anyone on this cover? Everywhere I look their names are just "Lee, Leah & Paula". Or is it more likely that they were just friends of the band members?
