How are they? I don't own the AATW single (I'm an American fan) and I'm not the biggest fan of AATW (starts out great, but by the 4 minute mark it becomes ridiculous and the 9 1/2 minute running length is at least 4 minuts too long, IMO).

How do Fame and Flashbax compare to the rest of BHN? Better? Worse? Similar quality?

I've seen the lyrics - frankly, the lyrics to the songs seem better than 80% of BHN's lyrics.

~~If someone doesn't mind, could they upload the songs for me?~~ I do intend to purchase them if I like them, although I'll probably wait for oasisinet.com to get around to posting all the b-sides on their digital downloads section (so far only the DM b-sides and the tracks off of TM are up - recordstore.co.uk said in an email reply that the rest will come, they're just not sure when).

Thanks!

Note: Edited b/c was informed that posting any official material was against the rules. Sorry.

Posting any official material here is against the rules. But buy the single . . . it's well worth it.

the fame and flashbax are the two best b-sides from the be here now era, hands down.

-the fame is a huge rocker- think of step out
-flashbax- there's nothing really like it- it's a slow rocker, not a ballad though, you hear some psychedelia in it, but not like sotsog

the best part of both of these songs is: NOEL SINGS THEM BOTH!!!

But still buy the single.

Shoutbox

themasterplanet: A Northern Soul by The Verve! My second favourite album by them. I love the atmosphere of it, it’s very dreamy and melancholic and dark. It holds many memories for me and I think that’s partly responsible for why I love it so much. Sept 6, 2024 18:57:34 GMT -5

AllOrNothing: Up in the Sky sounds like the La's on steroids, especially that Liam Falsetto that I can almost picture Lee Mavers singing with all his big teeth showing Sept 12, 2024 7:52:29 GMT -5

ennex: G'day folks, Sept 21, 2024 4:51:22 GMT -5

colincarrot: Hello! I'm new here and looking to download Liam Gallagher bootlegs from here and found this thread here - forum.live4ever.uk.com/thread/86703/liam-gallagher-tour-2017-2018 - with a list of concerts but if I click on any of the links... (1/2) Sept 23, 2024 10:47:13 GMT -5

colincarrot: ...it says I don't have permission to access this thread, maybe it's because I only joined today but I'm not sure what to do, could somebody help or know what to do?

Bring It On Dan: I have so much shit on an old hard drive somewhere but I just cannot find it. Nothing 'out there' but probably 200 gigs or so. I can't remember the name of the site that had all the gigs listed and sources for loads of gigs next to it? I remember RKID 003. Sept 24, 2024 17:34:46 GMT -5

mimmihopps: Bring It On Dan, it must be sadsong.net. I don't know if the site still exists. Sept 25, 2024 7:20:44 GMT -5

gottabecrazy: RKID003 was a great resource, they shared a lot there there really. I wish something similar could be up again. Sept 25, 2024 17:50:23 GMT -5

PollyWantsACracker: Been off the site for over half a decade, good to see it still going strong after all these years. Good to be frickin back again eh. I thought of the place after hearing today from a friend that Oasis is back in business again. Sept 26, 2024 17:07:27 GMT -5

RUBIKON: I'm gonna restart the Oasis MP3 Archive is anyone's intersted in helping? I ran it in 2000 to 2002 and was a great site. Used to use mIRC to get all the boots. I'll build the site, just need links to one drives and files. PM me if you fancy helping out Sept 29, 2024 8:31:27 GMT -5
