Quickly becoming my favourite on the album, it has took me a while to get in to it but I've realised it's a song that has that epicness that builds and builds, something the last couple Oasis albums failed to provide in my opinion. The live version has took it to another level and it's kind of like Beady Eye's Champagne Supernova in a live aspect, the drums in to the 'I'm coming up' part gets me going every time.
How's everyone else liking Wigwam?

I think this is my favorite song on the album. It jumped out at me on first listen and it still sounds good now after over a month. Despite its super long outro i don't believe i've ever skipped any of it.
Would love to hear some more tunes like it on the next record. Good stuff.

I think the song is brilliant until the break in the middle. The ending is fine, but that middle break is TOO long, and it kills the mood too much for me.

The drumming interlude is way too long. I like the song, but it could have been so much more (a common complaint about LAG's songs). Make the drumming part shorter, and the outro a bit more interesting (a la more jamming in the same vein as I'm The Resurrection by the Stone Roses), and you'd have a master piece.
Good song, but it does fall short.

I love it.....works great as an album track.
Agree that if reworked though it could be even better, part of me also wishes that the band held it back to close the 2nd record. Feels like we have 2 closers on the record.

Feels like we have 2 closers on the record. That's true...it does feel like a closer doesn't it? No it doesn't. Maybe as a gig closer but not on an album. Considering the "i'm coming up" bit is the entire second half of the song and it ends on a fade-out, it doesn't work as an album closer for me. Album closers should have some sense of finality to them.

I reckon the album version is too long but listening the live version made me realize the song is really catchy, I can't get it out of my head...!

Album closers should have some sense of finality to them. Yeah I wouldnt put that exact version as an album closer. I'd add a lead part like what has been mentioned and then slowly wind down into a climax. I think that would work well.
