The Oasis Effect describes the phenomena in modern music where popular music has plummeted in quality so much, that acts that were only mediocre in the past, are comparatively superb.
"I just got excited to find Wonderwall on a radio station. What the fuck is going on!?"
"Oh, that's just the Oasis Effect you're experiencing. Everything else is so bad, Wonderwall is good. We live in frightening times."

Get the Oasis mug.We the people fight for our existence
We don\'t claim to be perfect
But we\'re free
We dream our dreams alone
With no resistance
Fading like the stars we wish to be
You know I didn\'t mean
What I just said
But my God woke up
On the wrong side of his bed
And it just don\'t matter now
Cos little by little
We gave you everything
You ever dreamed of
Little by little
The wheels of your life
Have slowly fallen off
Little by little
You have to give it all in all your life
And all the time I just ask myself why
You\'re really here
True perfection has to be imperfect
I know that sounds foolish but it\'s true
The day has come
And now you\'ll have to accept
The life inside your head we give to you
You know I didn\'t mean
What I just said
But my God woke up
On the wrong side of his bed
And it just don\'t matter now
Cos little by little
We gave you everything
You ever dreamed of
Little by little
The wheels of your life
Have slowly fallen off
Little by little
You have to give it all in all your life
And all the time I just ask myself why
You\'re really here
Hey
Little by little
We gave you everything
You ever dreamed of
Little by little
The wheels of your life
Have slowly fallen off
Little by little
You had to give it all in all your life
And all the time I just ask myself why
You\'re really here
Why am I really here?
Why am I really here?
We don\'t claim to be perfect
