Oasis all the way to be fair, Gallagher's lyrics are far superior to any Bono shite, lets compare their uber happy songs, U2 - Beautiful Day and Oasis - Don't Look Back In Anger
Slip inside the eye of your mind
Don't you know you might find
A better place to play
You said that you'd never been
But all the things that you've seen
Will slowly fade away
So I start a revolution from my bed
Cos you said the brains I have went to my head
Step outside the summertime's in bloom
Stand up beside the fireplace
Take that look from off your face
You ain't ever gonna burn my heart out
So Sally can wait, she knows its too late as we're walking on by
Her soul slides away, but don't look back in anger I heard you say
Take me to the place where you go
Where nobody knows if it's night or day
Please don't put your life in the hands
Of a Rock n Roll band
Who'll throw it all away
Gonna START the revolution from my bed
Cos you said the brains I have went to my head
Step outside cos summertime's in bloom
Stand up beside the fireplace
Take that look from off your face
You ain't ever gonna burn my heart out
So Sally can wait, she knows its too late as she's walking on by
my soul slides away, but don't look back in anger I heard you say
(Repeat 3x)
Don't look back in anger
Don't look back in anger
Don't look back in anger
I heard you say...
At least not today
And the U2 tune:
The heart is a bloom
Shoots up through the stony ground
There's no room
No space to rent in this town
You're out of luck
And the reason that you had to care
The traffic is stuck
And you're not moving anywhere
You thought you'd found a friend
To take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand
In return for grace
It's a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
You're on the road
But you've got no destination
You're in the mud
In the maze of her imagination
You love this town
Even if that doesn't ring true
You've been all over
And it's been all over you
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day
Touch me
Take me to that other place
Teach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case
See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out
It was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
Beautiful day
Touch me
Take me to that other place
Reach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case
What you don't have you don't need it now
What you don't know you can feel it somehow
What you don't have you don't need it now
Don't need it now
It was a beautiful day
So yeah you can see there, the U2 lyrics are a bit pap tbh! Oasis ones are quality tho  . And with Beautiful Day you knowwww...they gave Virgin Radio a copy and they played it a few times but people didn't like it, so they made it a bit more 'rocky'... talk about sell-out! And U2 are trying to get back a more rawk image by being really rock'n'roll by doing a 'guerilla' gig in NYC to about 20k people or somethin, although strangely there was a massive stage there already and MTV were there ready to film it! unlucky them eh! And theres the U2 ipod...oh dear me! unlucky them eh.
Anyway I cant be arsed write a big essay because I don't have time, but Oasis > U2. The only good thing about U2 is that they've been around forever, thats about all the good things there is to them. And I agree with MaRt that The Edge isn't really very good on guitar.
U2 = Hype machine. U2 are to rock what tiesto is to trance
