Time Flies… 1994–2009
Time Flies… 1994–2009 is a compilation from Oasis that gathers all 27 of the band's UK singles, from their 1994 beginnings through to 2009. It arrived on 14 June 2010, a few days after its UK and European release, and sits as a neat summing-up of the group's run across seven studio albums, from Definitely Maybe to Dig Out Your Soul.
It is worth hearing for the sweep of the story, and for two tracks, "Whatever" and "Lord Don't Slow Me Down", that had never appeared on an Oasis studio album. There is also a hidden track: at Noel Gallagher's request, "Sunday Morning Call" is left off the artwork and sits on track 14 of the second disc. The record went straight to number one in the UK and has since gone 8× platinum there, making it the band's third best-selling album in Britain.
