"Definitely Maybe is the sound of people who feel like they need to scream to be heard-and even then, the chances of anyone actually listening seems depressingly unlikely. And yet, not wholly impossible. The album's first lines are: "Live my life in the city, there's no easy way out." Pretty bleak. But that song is called "Rock 'N' Roll Star", and it's about the possibility of escape via substances, or standing on a stage in front of a dozen people (as Oasis did many times in the early years), or your own head. "In my mind my dreams are real," sings Liam, and who can argue with that? Dreams play a big role on Definitely Maybe and its accompanying B-sides-all of which are collected in this three-disc re-release, along with many live performances and demos from the period-though they often read as both wistful and demanding, owing to the one-in-a-billion ying-yang chemistry between Noel's words and Liam's delivery".

"They boozed and brawled their way to greatness in pub-punk anthems like "Live Forever" and "Slide Away." There are unreleased demos and live treasures, along with essential 1994 singles and B sides like "Fade Away" and "Listen Up," where Oasis first hinted at the dreamy depths behind all the lager-swilling bravado".

""Definitely Maybe" vil helt op i fjæset på lytteren med en til tider punket Sex Pistols-agtig fremfærd, og "Live Forever", "Supersonic", "Rock ' n' Roll Star" og "Cigarettes & Alcohol" er ganske enkelt meget stærke rocknumre. Men man sidder aldrig med følelsen af, at man overså noget, da man oprindeligt hørte pladen. Det er et stykke musikhistorie, der lever højt på de fem-seks numre, som oprindeligt fascinerede".
