00:00In three years Oasis will have gone from being a new signing to one of Brock's true giants.
00:07What happened to you in those three years? Is that a big question?
00:11It is a big question. And it deserves a big answer.
00:16We were just lads from a council estate.
00:21Two brothers.
00:24Ed Cases.
00:27Go on you bald mother!
00:30Nobody had heard of us, but we had spirit.
00:33We never gave up. One night, everything changed.
00:37There is a story about you getting signed to Creation. Alan McGee saw you in the club, is that right?
00:41I did, yeah. He signed us there and then on the spot.
00:45No one had ever come along that was even remotely like us.
00:48Their debut album is already the classic of our time.
00:51Then it just blew up.
00:53We are the most popular rock and roll band in Britain today.
00:57Oasis were involved in a drunken brawl.
01:00Immediately condemned by politicians.
01:02The day that it steps over into the tabloids, then you've gone to the dark side.
01:06Trouble seemed to find us.
01:08It all happened too quick.
01:10Oasis was like a Ferrari. Great to look at, great to drive and it would fucking spin out of control every now and again.
01:17Oasis's greatest strength was me and Liam.
01:20It's also what drove the band into the ground in the end.
01:23Give it up for Oasis.
01:25One of the biggest bands since the Beatles.
01:27It just caught fire all over the world.
01:33It was just a great time to be alive.
01:37It was fucking biblical, man.
01:40I'd do it all again in that bit.
01:44Sometimes I wish it had gone a different way, but it hasn't.
01:53I just think in the times in which we live, it would be unrepeatable.
02:01If this ever goes on like a video, I would apologise.
02:04But I'm not going to, because he's a prick.
