Oasis/Noel Gallagher/Beady Eye songs...

Can't argue with much of the above. Tunes like 'Ya know what I mean' and 'I hope I think I know', are what oasis were all about originally. Rock and Roll straight to the pus.

As for Beady Eye, four letter word is a fucking beast. Easily my favourite tune of 2011.

I think the real reason it was panned was a backlash to how popular it was. It sold well over half a million albums in it's first three days. People were buying that album that hadn't bought an Oasis album before. They did not know what to expect. It was a very self indulgent album, but they had full control of how the album was going to get produced. Alan McGhee had given up trying to control them. I believe Paul Weller at one point said it was overblown but Noel thought he was taking the piss.

I enjoy the album mainly as the tracks from it never get played. In their last Scottish gig the place went mental when they played My Big Mouth. Much loved by the fans.

I've went over the album 3x in a week and just can't bring myself to take it out the car.

The instrumental start to my big mouth is just awesome.

I actually find myself turning up every song as they start. By the time I get to the all around the world instrumental and the door closes, I'm practically deaf.

What's everyone's top 10 favourite Oasis songs?

Mines are

10 - Don't Look Back In Anger

9 - Wonderwall

8 - Where Did It All Go Wrong

7 - She Is Love

6 - D'yer Wanna Be A Spaceman

5 - Little By Little

4 - Sunday Morning Call

3 - Live Forever

2 - I Hope I Think I Know

1 - Slide Away

That list has taken me like 30 minutes, was a fucking difficult choice. Number 1 was obvious seeing as it's my all time favourite song.

I've realized trying to do this list that there's 14 Oasis songs I like more than any others. That's not to say I only like 14 songs, I like loads but 14 stand out above the rest. Very hard to chalk off four but here's my list:

1 - Listen Up

2 - Slide Away

3 - Acquiesce

4 - Cast No Shadow

5 - Half The World Away

6 - D'You Know What I Mean?

7 - Little by Little

8 - Talk Tonight

9 - Going Nowhere

10 - Morning Glory

ETA: If it was Noel Gallagher written songs then 'It Makes Me Wanna Cry' would be right in there. Love that song.

4 - Rockin' Chair

5 - The Shock of the Lightning

6 - Gas Panic!

The top three tend to stay the same, but the others change quite a lot.

The new Beady Eye stuff that I just heard on Jools was awful.

I don't understand why they played the same song twice... thats what they did, right?

bloody painful to listen to, monotone, drudge. i can only compare hearing Beady Eye to the sound of road works going on outside your house.

Beautiful.

I don't know why that or Evil Eye didn't make the album in place of Face the Crowd. Then again, the Gallaghers have never been the greatest at choosing what songs to put on albums.
