Most underrated on BHN?
Sure it's not Noel's best. And, just like most on BHN, is way too long. But I don't understand why people say it's horrible?
It sounds fucking good! I like how the song explodes as it progresses...esp the vergy beginning. And it's catchy as fuck too.
Plus, it's not all crap:
"They who don't say what they mean will live and die by their own sword" is another genius line by Noel.

Yeah, I like this song. I think it has a lot of great lyrics in it too. However, I would have Stay Young on Be Here Now rather than Magic Pie. I think he should do this song on a possible new semi acoustic tour. Along with Stand By Me and Don't Go Away  |

Along with Stand By Me and Don't Go Away Yeah, i'd rather have Stay Young on it too....but why not replace Stay Young with AATW Reprise....as nice as the reprise sounds, it's utterly useless..... |

This song is fantastic- but i can see why some would be turned off by it, i think it's a song you would either love or hate
The lyrics are fantastic as well

Love it as I love all the BHN songs. I guess that MP represent what people who don't like BHN actually don't like. Excess, lack of lyrics coherence and so on...
I still love it ;D
I remember at the time I was desperately trying to find out what "I dig their friends, I dug their shoes" could mean ;D
I thought it was advanced english and that I wasn't good enough to get it ;D
pretty funny ;D

I like BHN, but don't like this song. I just can't stand it.

The song is good IMO. But the problem could be its lenght. I'd appreciate it shorter...and some other songs form BHN as well.

the opening minute is so good. After than it seems to drag on a bit. Would have been a lot better if it were cut down by about 2 min. The music is solid, Alan sounds great and Noel sings it rather strongly.

Born On A Different Cloud.
Also, Let's All Make Believe starts on Dmaug. Which almost counts.

One of the most underrated songs ever - had Lennon written/recorded this then everybody would cream their pants over it.........  i don't agree, for me its a poor track on an average album. |

Each to his own and all that, but how can you possibly describe it as an average album? Which Oasis albums are great, then? |

The music is solid, Alan sounds great and Noel sings it rather strongly. exactly my thoughts. prolly would have made an okay b-side. it's the only BHN era song for me that goes on too long. and i guess being at #3 in the running order it spoiled the album for a lot of critics. a more easy listening song could have accentuated the heavier nature of the rest of the songs. on the other hand it's a bit too late for those "if; would have; could have" games. |

Not a hard choice, Definetly Maybe and Morning Glory, then a drop off to Be Here Now, the rest mean nothing to me as albums, i don't waste my time listening to them, listen to selected tracks when I'm in the mood.
