#60: "Love is a time machine/Up on the silver screen..."

#60.



The Single: The Shock Of The Lightning
The Artist: Oasis

In the interest of full disclosure, I have a blindspot for the Oasis of the 90's. When the Gallagher brothers were telling us that they wanted to live forever and that I was a wonderwall, I absolutely bought it hook, line, and sinker. After a series of meh albums, they've gone back to doing what they do best: monster guitar sounds, blatant Beatles ripoff (actaul lyric in the song : "Love is a movie screen/ A MAGICAL MYSTERY"), and fantastic songwriting. I mean, come on; when you're ripping off the best band in the world, you'll do all right.
