Man, as the biggest Oasis fan here (sorry other commenters), it breaks my heart to see the thumbnail from the 2009 break up. I went to 5 Oasis gigs and met the band a couple times at the airport. Love them to death.

The Agonist split with their original singer, when she became the replacement in Arch Enemy would be a good honorable mention. But this list might be a little too mainstream for deep cut metal bands like that lol. Good video though interesting. 👌

"I've come to talk with you again"

These breakups would probably be at least an honorable mention, if not on the list proper: Styx: Tommy Shaw and Dennis DeYoung differed quite a bit on the musical vision of the band, with the differences culminating with the disastrous Kilroy Was Here album. Dennis would bring the band back without Tommy in the late 80's, and the entire band would reunite again in 1996. However, Dennis would split with the band again in 1999, with not only artistic differences, but a medical issue potentially causing a touring delay. Van Halen: You mention the split between VH and David Lee Roth was acrimonious, but perhaps just as bad, if not worse was their split with Sammy Hagar--twice (1996 and 2004 following a tour that ended with Hagar and the Halen Brothers not even talking to each other by the end. RattL It seems like this group broke up and reunited more than Ross & Rachel, but their final breakup in the late 2000's seems to be permanent. Queenryche: Never a good sign once the lawsuits over name rights start.

@gars129

The Sammy Hagar breakup was a lot more tragic, because Sammy was actually very close to the rest of the band. By contrast, Roth was more of a coworker that just so happened to have insane chemistry when playing with them.

Being in a band is like being in a marriage with a load of people. you need compromise and harmony. I worked in a handful of bands over the decades and I completely understand what a messy break up is all about 😑

Savage Garden-- Daniel Jones didn't want to go on before they released their follow up album due to issues with constant travel. Darren Hayes chose to be the face of the duo for promo for the Affirmation album. The tour of the world to support it went on even though Daniel didn't want to be there and was not always present for some of its promotions. The split was wrongly blamed on Hayes. Darren has gone on to be a solo singer & songwriter while Daniel has left the industry for the most part.

I would have put CCR higher on the list if not number 1. These lists constantly cite stuff like, the Gallaghers as brothers in Oasis. John and Tom Fogerty were also brothers who would not reunite, even to play for the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame or the inauguration of Bill Clinton in 1993. Tom Fogerty died from AIDs and some of dying words to John were 'Saul Zaentz is one of my best friends.' I don't remember the exact quote but, basically, Tom was dying and his dying words to his brother was a giant screw you. John hated Zaentz to the point their legal feud is Supreme Court precedent - Fogerty vs. Fantasy Records where Zaentz had sued Fogerty on the claim that Fogerty as a solo musician had plagiarized a CCR song that Fogerty had written. Fogerty lost the rights to CCR songs in order to get out of his contractual obligations to Fantasy Records after Tom, Stu Cook, and Doug Clifford left the band. Also, the bitter lawsuits between the former members of CCR were because Zaentz had told them to put all their money in an offshore account that was controlled by Paul Helliwell of the CIA. This is why they had to sue each other to get their money. John Fogerty was the band manager, Zaentz exploited John's naivete and inexperience in knowing what he was doing. John thought his intentions were right and the band should support him but they did not, instead opting to side with Zaentz. Zaentz was also a film producer - producing Mosquito Coast, The Unbearable Lightness of Being, The English Patient, and Amadeus and owned the rights to Lord of the Rings (meaning, when Peter Jackson wanted to film LOTR, he had to go through Zaentz). The rivalry between Mozart and Salieri in Amadeus was likely inspired by the rivalry in CCR - most historians will say, the rivalry in Amadeus was exaggerated and distorted if not fabricated (a reality of biopic films about musicians that Weird Al spoofed in his biopic for FunnyOrDie).

Ok Van Halen didn’t break up they just replaced singers idk if that counts

I'll be surprised if Lost Prophets aren't on this list, their breakup was messy.

Can you do comic book origin of DC Music_Meister?

Lol, I don't know whether to be grateful that their break up isn't considered messy enough (though they looked like they were practically taking shots in some vids), or outraged that they didn't even get a mention, but it feels like the Police should've made it somewhere on this. Eh, regardless, I still love the band.

The Beatles were cursed from the beginning. After they start on Ed Sullivan they were constantly asked how long do you think you guys will be together. They stayed together 10 years as a famous fan and many years before that I would say it's pretty good but I still wish they were still around but that'll never happen now that John and George are both dead they are my favorite band.
