Review about Definitely Maybe ------performed by Oasis | 12/22/2005 3 out of 4 Found the view helpful This was the album that announced to the world that Oasis had arrived, in force and in style. It was released on the 30th August 1994, and became the fastest selling debut album of all time, an achievement which may never be beaten by any other band or artist. Within the album are many excellent songs, such as LIVE FOREVER, which is thought by many to be Oasis' best ever song. It also has many upfront, forceful songs, such as the confident CIGARETTES AND ALCOHOL, SUPERSONIC and BRING IT ON DOWN. However it also combines these heavy songs with other lighter tracks, such as DIGSY'S DINNER, which is a light hearted jest at the pop music industry, it also contains SHAKERMAKER, which is Oasis' first song to be like THE BEATLES, full of nonsensical but nonetheless amusing lyrics, a very phsychadelic song. COLUMBIA is also in some ways the same, desribing the misunderstanding of feeling. MARRIED WITH CHILDREN is the acoustic song on the album, which has cutting edge lyrics. SLIDE AWAY is another epic song, which not only is great to listen to, but inspiring as well. Finally, ROCK N ROLL STAR is another of Oasis' great songs, which is Oasis sending a message that they don't care what people might think, they are going to make good music, and have a good time in the process.
