strange how people are saying it sounds like late-Oasis.
IT IS written by the same guy, it's wasn't going to be THAT different!

Does anyone on here listen to Oasis exclusively? Seriously!?!? i dig the new tune mostly because it doesn't fuck up the flow on my iPod. It fits in with everything else I have on there. It is different but not outlandishly different. I commend the fellas for trying to move in a different direction. But lets e honest. . .they are damned if they do, or damned if they don't. They would get slagged off by half the world anyhow. It's all good. I personally can't wait for the future releases, because at least I know it won't be corporately written bullstool! Cheers! I don't agree. I think that Liam and co. are not really getting screwed over this. The tune is getting neutral-positive reviews critically. Which is acceptable and in my view fairly accurate. The fan reactions are bit more extreme. But even the fan-base that hates it all seem to be willing to give the next single and most likely the album a listen before they write them off. The exceptions being a few semi-trolls. At the end of the day I think that BDI will retain as much of the Oasis fan-base as they deserve. And hopefully they can branch out into a fan-base all their own from there. I think they are getting a fair shake of the stick. Even those that like the tune are betting on it not being the best tune on the album which says something to me. Honestly...I think Noel is going to have a harder time winning over the general public and possibly even the fan-base. It will be harder for him to move away from Oasis...because Oasis was HIS sound. I have faith he can do it if he tries...but it'll be a longer stretch for him.

Let's be honest sonically it's not much different from oasis..... It's a good song tho, IMO a solid 7. Trim it by a minute, a bit more inspiration with the guitars parts, put some bass in there and make it sound a bit rawer (for me it's got that horrible studio sheen to it) and you're definitely looking at an 8. The videos good too.
Thinking about most of those points tho..... The length, the guitar, the bass and the overall sound I'm a bit scared for the album production wise. Hoped lily-white would have the balls no oasis producer ever had to tell them what needed to be done to improve songs

Lyrics wise yes but musically it isn't like Oasis. I suppose you could have seen the music going this way - going by some of the latest efforts on DOYS and DBTT Especially Liam who seems to constantly refer to the 60's, so I suppose it was bound to come out in his music.

I have faith he can do it if he tries...but it'll be a longer stretch for him. I dont think that the Oasis sound will be a problem for Noel. I mean if the SOTSOG demos proved anything, its that Noel can move away from the Oasis sound pretty quickly. Especially, if you listen to the WDIAGW demo. Also I think that most music journalist wouldnt be suprised if he went into a new direction and I think that most would pounce on him if he did come out with an Oasis-esque sound, and the gerneral public too for that matter. I also think that most of the Oasis fan base would kinda be disappointed if Noel came out with an Oasis like sound. I mean Noel will always sound some what Oasis like, but you can say the same thing about BDI, good example is BTL. Its really just an Oasis riff over a piano. Is it the same as Oasis? Yes. Is it different from Oasis too? Yes. The same will go for Noel. He'll be like Oasis, but different. The problem for Noel is that he'll have higher expectations. BDI can afford to release BTL. I mean BTL is an ok to good song, but let's be fair if Noel released BTL everyone and me included would be ready to burn down his house. The main reason is because we just expect more from Noel. I mean even at Noel's I Can See A Liar's worse he's still a better songwriter than anyone in BDI. Some might aruge, but that is the truth. We will have higher expectations for Noel to come out with something amazing rather than something thats on the level of DBTT or DOYS. If BDI came out with a DOYS like album I would love it, but if Noel came out with that I would hate it. Mainly because I just expect more from Noel. So no the Oasis sound will not be a problem for Noel, its the expectations that will prove hard to over come.

The piano is what makes it appear non-Oasis, but replace the piano with a guitar and it's pretty much an Oasis track. There's so many hallmarks of Oasis embedded in the track - the Gem mini-guitar solos sound very Oasis-like. The piano gives it a BDI air to it, but underneath it is the Oasis sound.

I can see the similarities but people like journo's just saying "oh it's Oasis 2.0" - Can fuk right off! So far (IMO) it sounds like Beady Eye!

Lets deal in facts and not hypothetical situations??? Its not a hypothetical situation though - it's an Oasis song with a piano on it. Heck, even the piano is Oasis-esque. She's Electric has a "tongue in cheek" piano going on. Idlers Dream was written on a piano. SCYHO has dominant piano parts - more dominant than BTL.. Love Like A Bomb has a piano solo. The early Digsys Dinner mixes had pianos all over them. Don't Look Back In Anger.... Fuck it... You get the point... Bring The Light could just aswell be Oasis.

It doesn't sound a million miles away from Oasis, it's just a crap song is all.

Well who'd have though a piano was an instrument??? That's like saying that Oasis songs have guitars on the majority of them so they sound like U2 because U2 use guitars as well - FFS It's played in a totally different way which differentiates it from anything that Oasis did. Yes they may have used piano, but the vibe Bring the Light has is down to the Piano, which can only mean it's different from Oasis - it may not be 100% different but it's DEFINITELY not Oasis 2.0. Me? I'm starting afresh on Beady Eye and judging it on what I hear. So far I like.

Especially some of the live versions.

Or do they sound exactly the same because they have piano in them. Ok I give up. I give in and admit Bring The Light is alien to anything Oasis have ever released. Even Force Of Nature despite the bouncing piano they put on it.

Its not alien, but at the same time its not really similar. You say bouncing, fair enough, i'd say plodding. And I would describe BTL as anything but plodding.

I think everyone can see there are aspects of Oasis in Bring the Light I have friends who aren't into Oasis who think all their songs sound the same - it does my head in!!

i don't know how this song is different from what liam has wrote previously. the piano is turned up in the mix omgz. otherwise it rapes the late 50's and early 60's like meaning of soul.
