The cult of the Oesis, the Bari parody of the Oasis

The base in the background is that of “Stop Crying Your Heart Out”, the hit that Oasis released in 2002, taken from the album “Heathen Chemistry”. But The voice is not that of Liam Gallagher. AND The words of the text, to listen to them well, are not those in Nael Gallagher’s inlgese. No, the singer does not sing exactly “‘Cause all of the Stars Are Fading Away / Just Try Not to World, You’ll See Them Someday”. The verses, on the same, identical melody of “Stop Crying Your Heart Out”, say: “But this is a joke, that it goes to you / and the rates of the races».

The language is that of the Molfettese dialect. The band are not of course Oasis, but the .oesis, or the Apulian version of the iconic British band. To impersonate the two Gallagher brothers are Emilio Solfrizzi (known to most for acting in the TV series of the 2000s as “you are Forte, Maestro” and “All crazy for love”) and Antonio Stornaioloor the comic duo Toti and Tata.

The parody of the Oasis of the two Apulian actors was born in 1998 within the “Love Store” program of the local broadcaster Soap opera. A brilliant, exhilarating idea that saw the two rewrite in Molfettese the texts of the hit of the Britpop phenomenon groupconquering thanks to the word of mouth of the loyal also outside the borders of Puglia: on YouTube, years later, the video clips of performances on the notes of songs such as “127 Abarth“(Their version of” Champagne Supernova “),”The girlfriend Maie“(” Don’t go away “),”Turaist Inglais“(” Stand by me “), accompanied by the inevitable Italian subtitles, count hundreds of thousands of views.

With the new Oasis-Mania at the gates, while the wait for the return to the stage, on July 4th at the Cardiff, Liam and Noel Gallagher’s mainty stadium, is growing after sixteen years after that furious quarrel in the backstage of the rock en seine in Paris who put an end to the parable of the band of “Wonderwall”, also the Oesais, who were at a certain point at a certain point, loose. They do it with a new single, “.U mutue at 30 Anne“, Restive of the aforementioned” Stop Crying Your Heart Out “, and with A series of shows in Puglia for which a feverish ticket hunting started.

If in “Stop Crying Your Heart Now” Noel Gallagher told the harshness of life, inspired by a friend of his who crossed a period of difficulty, the Oesais do not take too many freedoms compared to the original: The song tells the tragicomic situation experienced by a boy who first requests for a thirty -year mortgage for the house of dreams with his girlfriend, but then he is gave up. “Nan se fasc ‘acchessài, jè brutt adavaire’ nu mutue a trend’anne »,” it is not done so, now it is difficult to take on a thirty -year mortgage», The two comedians sing in the verses of their version of the Oasis hit. The text bears the signature of Gennaro Nunzianteknown to most to be the director and screenwriter of the films of Checco Zalonefrom “Cado from the clouds” to “Quo vado?”, passing through “what a beautiful day” and “sun at catinelle”.

The release of the new single and the announcement of the shows in Puglia has in fact brought to light hidden treasures on YouTube and in the archives of local private TVs. Under the videos of the performances on the notes of pieces such as “127 Abarth” (“Champagne Supernova” becomes the lament of a boy to whom they stole the car, naturally in dialect) and “The girlfriend Maie” (“Don’t go Away” becomes the outburst of a boy who has to deal with the pressing requests of his girlfriend to get married) many old fans in recent weeks have found themselves sharing memories and comments. More than twenty years still make me laugh to tears », writes a user. “History. Wonderful times », writes another. And again: “We are all again here in 2025”, “the most awaited reunion of all time”. And now fans are waiting for an unreleased album.
