Oasis Charts A Late-In-Career New Top 40 Hit With A Decades-Old Song
More than 15 years after Oasis went on what was expected to be its last concert trek, the Dig Out Your Soul Tour, the band is back together for a string of shows. The Oasis Live 25 Tour began on July 4 and is expected to end in November, with dates spread out across Europe, the United States, Asia, Australia, and South America. The group has wrapped its shows in the United Kingdom for now, but there's still a lot of excitement connected to the legendary Britpop outfit. This frame, many of the band's most successful albums and singles continue to find space on a multitude of charts. The rockers even manage to collect a brand new top 40 hit with a decades-old tune. 'Slide Away' Debuts Inside the Top 40 'Slide Away' launches on the Official Singles chart this week, opening at No. 31. The title is performing well enough on both streaming platforms and digital download storefronts — which both feed into the competitive tally — that it gives the band yet another smash. A Coincidence on the Charts Oasis has now racked up 31 hits on the Official Singles chart. Fittingly, 'Slide Away' opens at No. 31. The group has collected 28 top 40 hits in the country, as only a handful of cuts have missed out on the region that typically defines a proper win. 'Slide Away' Was Never Pushed as a Single 'Slide Away' was never released as a single, but it becomes a top 40 smash in the U.K. this week nonetheless. The tune is featured on the band's debut full-length Definitely Maybe, which dropped in the summer of 1994 and is now more than 30 years old. 'Slide Away' Falls on Sales and Streaming Rankings As 'Slide Away' launches on the Official Singles roster, it also appears on three other tallies, but declines on all of them. The song slips on the Official Streaming, Official Singles Downloads, and Official Singles Sales charts, settling at Nos. 77, 86, and 90, respectively, six weeks into its life on all three tallies. 'Don't Look Back in Anger' and 'Live Forever' Per Official Charts Company rules, Oasis only claims three spaces on the Official Singles chart at the moment, the most allowed per musical act in a lead role at one time. 'Slide Away' joins 'Don't Look Back in Anger' and 'Live Forever,' which dip slightly to Nos. 22 and 27, respectively. Both of those tracks had previously reached the top 10, and 'Don't Look Back in Anger' is counted among Oasis' No. 1s.

Danny Dyer and Louis Tomlinson among famous faces at Oasis' Cardiff comeback
Friday, July 4, 2025, will go down as one of the biggest nights in British music history as Oasis graced a live stage for the first time in 16 years. The Mancunian Britpop heroes formed in Burnage in the early 1990s and quickly became—for better or worse—the defining band of their generation. But singer-songwriter brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher had a famously frosty relationship, and the band shockingly split when Noel quit in August 2009. After waging a cold war in the press for more than a decade, the two siblings kissed and made up in 2024 and announced a string of live dates for summer 2025. The Oasis Live 25 Tour kicked off in Cardiff on Friday night, with the 75,000 tickets sold at the Principality Stadium among the hottest in the world right now. But it's not just regular folks who've descended on the Welsh capital for a bit of the action—half a dozen famous faces have been spotted in the crowd as well. 📝| 'Louis is a huge Oasis fan and has been extremely open about failing to secure tickets in the queue. He's said to have found himself on tonight's guestlist, which promises to be one of the most exciting concerts in music history.'— The Mirror can reveal that the cheeky… — World Tomlinson (@LouisWT91World) July 4, 2025 The first to pop up was This Is England actress Vicky McClure, who joined the BBC's live coverage of the build-up to the Oasis gig and then went to grab a spot in the crowd. From the BBC itself, Radio 2 host Vernon Kay popped along, despite being called a 'lanky b*****d' by Liam Gallagher himself during a tense meeting between the two years ago. And MailOnline photographers spotted Gavin & Stacey star Rob Brydon in the crowd, with the Welsh actor not having to go too far from home to see his musical heroes. But stealing the headlines were none other than actor Danny Dyer, who was spotted in Cardiff earlier on Friday, and former One Direction singer Louis Tomlinson. Danny opted for dark sunglasses and a moustache to keep his identity a secret, but fans still managed to spot him walking along a road near the stadium. He was seen wearing a smart casual navy blue jacket as he walked alongside a friend (or bodyguard), with hundreds of onlookers none the wiser. And reports in The Mirror earlier today speculated that Walls hitmaker and Oasis superfan Louis had managed to secure himself a spot on the guest list. Louis had apparently tried and failed, along with thousands of others, to get his hands on those prized tickets earlier last year when they went on sale. He said at the time: 'I didn't [get tickets]. I was in the queue, but I never got a number. I did try. I did try. I have my fingers crossed.' Fellow musician Serge Pizzorno—of the Leicester-based rock band Kasabian—was also apparently spotted by reports, with Kasabian owing a lot to the Manchester band. Everton FC's manager, Sean Dyche, also sat on the BBC's sofa outside the Principality Stadium before taking his place among the thousands witnessing history. And it seems he set a bit of a trend, as fellow Premier League boss Nuno Espirito Santo, in charge at Nottingham Forest, was also rumoured by The Sun to be in attendance on Friday. At the gig, Oasis rolled back the years by playing some of their biggest hits, with some fans in Cardiff reckoning Liam sounded 'biblical' and better than ever. @ShaneRyanOneil exclaimed: 'Liam hasn't sounded this good in years. Biblical,' while @Jahvasconcelos said: 'Liam's voice sounds absolutely BIBLICAL. Unbeliveable.' More Trending The two brothers held hands as they walked onto the stage in Cardiff, with their gesture being greeted by huge cheers from the over 70,000-strong crowd. Bang on 8:15pm, Noel and Liam launched into their tune Hello, which opened their second album (What's the Story) Morning Glory? all those years ago. After this, they went into Acquiesce – which originally appeared as the B-side to Oasis' first number-one single Some Might Say, in 1995. The words 'This is not a drill' appeared on the screen in giant letters, with the crowd—decked out in Mancunian bucket hats, sunglasses, and Oasis merch—sending cups flying by jumping in the air.
