    I glorious nostalgic feeling comes while listening to this album. The complete collection of all the singles released by Oasis in their entire career. The record is must listen for an avid britpop fan and to those who want to experience 'Oasis Mania' that had engulfed the world. Outstanding they were, they will always live in the hearts of millions!

    the best recopilation of one of the best bands of Great Britain, in a road, of 15 years, of the band, become to be the best band not only in England, it's to be around the world

    Derivative, basic and offensive to anybody who is not a pleb. The most overrated band of the last 20 years. Music for philistines. An example of marketing and image triumphing over substance. Their are thousands of musicians who can do what oasis do.

    This outlines the whole album career of this band, the choice of singles was well engineered, my favorite is still Wonderwall. Great collection of Oasis.

    You'll be getting all of the greatest singles Oasis has to offer, though some of them may not be as good as others, you can always skip them or press the repeat button during songs like Wonderwall. Anyway, for the amount of tracks, this is a good buy.

    "Time Flies" collects all of the bands single releases across a double album. It's a serious collection containing some of the most recognisable rock tunes from the 90's and 00's, but there are so many great album tracks and more to the point B-sides that are missing, that it's a far from comprehensive compilation. I would argue that if you have "Time Flies", you needn't bother checking"Time Flies" collects all of the bands single releases across a double album.

I would argue that if you have "Time Flies", you needn't bother checking out "Heathen Chemistry" or "Dig Out Your Soul" as anything worthwhile from those albums is here. What would have really made this release class is a third disk compiling the best of the b-sides, like an updated version of "The Masterplan".… Expand

    "Time Flies... 1994-2009" is a collection of every Oasis single released. It also happens to be a greatest hits track, since most of their singles are gold. This is a great buy.

    Oasis's best album, Simply because all their hits are on there, Supersonic, Wonderwall, Some might say, Live Forever, Don't Look back in anger and so many more!. The only one missing is Rock and Roll Star, Then it would be perfect!

    Time Flies... is the memorial to the greatest rock'n'roll cartoon of them all, one which, re-formation dreams aside, ends here now. [Jul 2010, p.144]

    Time Flies does a better job of rounding up the highlights from their patchy turn-of-the-millennium albums--actually, it emphasizes Heathen Chemistry almost a bit too much, with its five tracks outweighing the number of selections from Definitely Maybe and Morning Glory--and has space for selections from their smashing final album Dig Out Your Soul.

    This utterly unnecessary but partially satisfying "complete" (says the sticker on the sleeve) singles collection manages to fall at the first hurdle by not including their first (and best) 12" from debut album Definitely Maybe, the shameless cocaine elegy Columbia.
