  1. 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.

    Time Flies, though fun, is no more than a handy place to nab all 27 Oasis' singles in one unfilteresd, undescerning grab. [Jul 2010, p.124]
  3. The songs compiled here were the public face and sound of that--all-inclusive, heroic and, for the most part, bloody catchy. As eulogies go, it's not half bad.
  4. The selections from later albums-while not standing up to the quality of their predecessors--are the best of a sad bunch, making Time Flies a solid collection with the odd misguided moment.

  1. 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! Expand
  2. "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. Expand
  3. 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. Expand
  4. 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. Expand
