Oasis, from what I remember, was a very popular band but SP was the biggest band in the world for about 6-9 months in 1996-97. You could not escape them.

these singles did hardly anything compared to the big singles we are talking about from both bands. like muzzle, seriously?
as for links, it's not hard to find basic stats:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oasis_discography
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sm...ns_discography
pre 1994 - sp had nothing at number 1 with gish or sd.
1994
oasis 1st album, number 1 in uk with 2 other markets top 5.
1995
oasis 2nd album, went number 1 in 6 markets, 2 others top 5.
mcis went number 1 in 4 markets, 3 others top 5
1997
oasis 3rd album, went number 1 in 6 markets, 4 others top 5.
1998
adore number 1 in 4 markets, 5 others top 5.
2000
oasis 4th album, went number 1 in 2 markets, 4 others top 5.
machina never got to number 1.
for singles:
oasis had 6 number 1 singles between 1995-1998
sp had only 1, 1979.
oasis album sales from the US and UK combined never even made half of their total world wide sales. they were huge everywhere, not just UK or USA.
