Its a riot of a song and as they more or less recorded it live it should be good in a live setting aswell.

Actually I've heard numerous critical reviews of it. This board is the only place where I've heard positive reviews, and even then they're mixed at best.

Personally I really dislike it. Its a lazy song. The lyrics are awful, the melody is heavily influenced (bordering on stolen) from Jerry Lee Lewis and the like, and its too long and repetitive to work as a "fun song." Perhaps if it was speeded up it would work, but as it stands I think Bring The Light and Beatles and Stones are the only blips on the album.

They aren't the only songs I dislike on the album, but at least those songs are well thought out and fit well, even if the end product doesn't quite work.

Agree with the OP. Most people on here didn't like it because it 'wasn't oasis.' From the second I heard the opening line I absolutely loved it, drove through town in the car today, turned it up when bring the light come on. It's the bollox. The abbey road verson we ge on monday will be mega aswell, it's gonna be in a different league live.

You must really hate this album if you're gonna complain about "stolen melodies" and bad lyrics

It's just rock 'n' roll

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
