Oasis' old hits have made their way to the top 5 of the UK singles chart following their reunion.
Oasis could be set for a chart battle with pop star Sabrina Carpenter.
Following the announcement of their 2025 stadium reunion tour last week, the Britpop legends' tunes have been making big moves in the Official UK Singles Chart, with 'Live Forever', which peaked at number 10 in 1994, heading towards number four, according to the Official Charts Company.
What's more, 'Wonderwall' and 'Don't Look Back In Anger' are on course to head back into the Top 10.
Sabrina secured the No.1 spot last Friday (30.08.24) with her latest hit 'Taste' from her LP 'Short N' Sweet', whilst 'Please Please Please' and 'Espresso' occupy the next two positions.
As for Oasis' albums, the compilation LP 'Time Flies 1994-2009' is number three, 1995's '(What's the Story) Morning Glory?' is one position behind and the recently released 30th anniversary re-issue of their seminal debut studio album 'Definitely Maybe' has made the Top 5.
Fans scrambled to get tickets to the 'Oasis Live '25' tour over the weekend, with masses left waiting in lengthy queues before being told all dates were sold-out on Saturday evening (31.08.24).
Rogue resale sites have listed tickets for thousands of pounds whilst Ticketmaster has come under fire for using "dynamic pricing", which saw standard ticket prices rise substantially.
As a result, the UK's Culture Secretary has vowed to probe the issue as part of the Government's review of secondary ticket sales.
Labour’s Lisa Nandy said in a statement issued on Sunday (01.09.24): "After the incredible news of Oasis’ return, it’s depressing to see vastly inflated prices excluding ordinary fans from having a chance of enjoying their favourite band live.
“This Government is committed to putting fans back at the heart of music. So we will include issues around the transparency and use of dynamic pricing, including the technology around queuing systems which incentivise it, in our forthcoming consultation on consumer protections for ticket resales.
“Working with artists, industry and fans we can create a fairer system that ends the scourge of touts, rip-off resales and ensures tickets at fair prices.”
Standard tickets jumped from £148 to £355.
