OASIS SCORE WITH NEW FILM SOUNDTRACK
A previously unheard OASIS track will be released on October 17 – and could be the last from the band for some time to come.
With Noel Gallagher telling NME.COM last week that the band won’t release a new album until at least 2007, possibly even 2010, the band have contributed a brand new song to the soundtrack of the forthcoming football film ‘Goal! The Movie’ called ‘Who Put The Weight Of The World On My Shoulders?’.
Written and performed by Noel, insiders who have heard the track revealed: “The song really feels like a classic Noel-fronted track, it’s principally acoustic but has got really melodic strings all over it.”
The track appears to reference the band’s current album ‘Don’t’ Believe The Truth’ and the guitarist’s contempt for TV news which inspired it, with Noel singing: “Who put the weight of the world on my shoulders?/ Who put the lies in the truth that you sold us/ Lost behind a silver screen are all the things you could have been to us”.
“It’s a weighty, heart-felt lament from Noel,” added the insider, “in a way it sounds like the other side of the coin to ‘Whatever’ (1994 single), epic but really soulful.”
Noel’s contribution to ‘Goal!’ came about after director Danny Cannon visited him while the band were recording in Los Angeles earlier this year. Having agreed to take part, the new track was recorded in London just after the band’s short club show tour in May, and was produced by UNKLE.
The soundtrack also features other rare Oasis material, with an unreleased mix of ‘Morning Glory’ by ‘Don’t Believe The Truth’ producer Dave Sardy which adds an aggressive edge to the track, plus the new UNKLE ‘Beachhead’ re-recording of ‘Cast No Shadow’ featuring Noel on vocals. B-side ‘Acquiesce’ is not slated for the soundtrack album, but features in the film itself.
‘Goal!’ follows the story of a Mexican illegal immigrant who journeys from Los Angeles to Newcastle hoping to make it as professional footballer, and is released on September 20.
cant wait for this song... i think it will b put on the b-side album eventually

Does anyone know if the band has played Who put the weight... live? I was looking at a new Oasis bootleg a few weeks ago before I'd heard of this song and WPTWOTWOMS was on the trackilisting, but it was a bootleg from a London gig I think. I may go look for the cd again on Saturday.

It'll be a sad day considering it will be the last tidbit of new material for 4 years

movie is being released September 30th I think. Hopefully we'll have 4 more B-sides too, and then we have to wait 3 years or so for new stuff.

It'll be a sad day considering it will be the last tidbit of new material for 4 years With any luck we should get 3/4 new original songs as a B-side with perhaps a cover to boot, so theres still a bit to come, and it depends who has the biggest say between Noel and Liam as to when the next albums out, by the sounds of it Noel would happily wait 6/7 years, whereas Liam would happily get recording next week. |

"Who put the weight" as a single. That would be nice!
Anybody think that's realistic?

I am quite surprised that Noel never mentioned it in any interviews like " one of the greatest song i've ever written " or something like that .. He talked about songs like " All Around The World " , " My Big Mouth " , " Stand By Me " , " Part Of The Queue " or " Importance Of Being Idle " months before they gotr released ..
I hope the song will be " epic " as they said ... Like " Whatever " or " Champagne Supernova " were !

I'm looking forward to the new version of Morning Glory. Probably Noel on acoustic, can't wait to stick these on my MP3.
