Remember when music divided a nation? August 14, 1995 marked a cultural phenomenon when Blur and Oasis, the two giants of Britpop, went head-to-head in a chart battle that transcended music to become front-page news and national conversation.

We unravel the fascinating story behind this legendary showdown - how Blur deliberately scheduled "Country House" against Oasis's "Roll With It," creating the highest-selling week for UK singles in a decade. The rivalry wasn't simply about chart positions; it represented deeper divisions in British society: north versus south, working-class versus middle-class, raw authenticity versus artistic experimentation.

Beyond the music, we explore the bitter personal feuds, with Liam Gallagher confronting Damon Albarn and Noel Gallagher making outrageous comments that fueled tabloid headlines. Decades later, these fierce rivals have reconciled, with Gallagher and Albarn becoming friends and collaborators, giving this cultural moment even greater poignancy.

For those who lived through it, the Britpop battle remains a vivid memory of summer 1995 when choosing between Blur or Oasis felt like an essential declaration of identity. For newer listeners, it offers fascinating insight into a time when popular music genuinely shaped the cultural landscape.

Join us as we celebrate this pivotal moment that defined a generation and ask the eternal question: were you Blur or Oasis?
