Oasis’ ‘(What’s The Story) Morning Glory?’ named “biggest studio album of all time” in UK
'(What's The Story) Morning Glory?', Oasis's classic 1995 album, has been ranked the biggest studio album of all time in the UK, according to the Official Charts Company's combined sales and streaming data. It sits at Number Three overall on the all-time chart, behind two greatest hits compilations, making it the highest-placed original studio record and cementing its status as one of Britain's most enduring cultural touchstones three decades after release.
The album has accumulated 6.2million UK chart units, boosted recently by renewed streaming interest following Oasis's Live '25 reunion tour. It trails Queen's and ABBA's Greatest Hits collections at Numbers One and Two, while Adele's '21', Fleetwood Mac's 'Rumours' and Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' also feature in the top 10; Oasis's debut 'Definitely Maybe' ranks 39th. The announcement coincides with the Official Albums Chart's 70th anniversary and follows a separate resurgence for the album's single 'Wonderwall', which soundtracked England's World Cup 2026 victories.
