Words: Morrissey, Music: Gallagher. Why not? Sounds like a good idea to me.
He's no Jesse Tobias but he has sold from 10 to 15 times as many records as Morrissey and The Smiths combined depending on what sources you check.“I’d love to write a song for Morrissey. That would be fantastic...

Are you kidding me "He's no jesse tobias" . Like jesse has written anything as good as live forever, supersonic, slide away. You people are so f***ing dumb

I don't judge an artists worth based on how many records they sell. The people who do that are f***ing IDIOTS.
I mostly agree, but record sales up until the 90's were a big deal. And you gotta be impressed by people like Michael and Elvis who managed to unite almost the entire world with their music. People bought Thriller and Bad like they were household appliances, just like Elvis's records. The kind of music that most fans of popular music can appreciate. Some people sell/sold records thanks to the sheer quality of their work, their originality, and their universal appeal. MJ and Elvis did that, and so did Oasis (even though originality wasn't in their master plan).
Thing is though people unite for many reasons not all music all relevant ones. I can think of artists who sold millions of record only to be forgotten by popular culture and there records five years later.nelvis and Michaels legacies have endured but I'm not so sure about oasis on that level. There music fine if very unoriginal and by unoriginal I mean nicking riffs here and there. That said I have three of there records and play them to my enjoyment every now and again

I am not impressed by the sales figures at all. I also don't like Elvis' music, nor M.J's, nor Prince, nor Madonna, nor all the BIG names. I always loved the underdogs. And it makes me feel good about myself that I don't fall into the category of the majority, the mainstream listener. The same can also be applied to what I watch and read.
You come off as a contrived and anxious teenager, fighting desperately to be hip and "alternative". I pity you. You miss out on a lot of fantastic music. Cornerstones of pop music history. The innovators, the engineers. You are allowed to like both big and obscure names (I do!).
