Ok, here's a little challenge for you all. If you have iTunes create an Oasis playlist consisting of between 10 - 13 songs. These have to be, obviously, Oasis songs. To make it a bit more realistic the content needs to include:
- At lease 50% of it's content to have been written by Noel - The other portion of the album HAS TO include songs written by LAG, again including most of them by Liam (to make it realistic) - Between one and three songs sung by Noel
After doing this, post it up and we can compare and pick apart each others work! (I have yet to do this, but I shall)

Just did the first thing that went into my head really. Decided on a typical 6 Noel, 3 Liam, 1 Andy, 1 Gem format with Noel singing 3. Probably will flow awfully Turn Up The Sun Live Forever Don't Look Back In Anger Songbird The Importance Of Being Idle I'm Outta Time Falling Down Slide Away Eyeball Tickler Rock'N'Roll Star The Boy With The Blues

The Masterplan

Turn Up The Sun Supersonic Don't Look Back In Anger A Bell Will Ring I'm Outta Time Some Might Say Songbird Keep The Dream Alive Meaning Of Soul Live Forever Hung In A Bad Place Slide Away
I went with 12 songs and chose 5 for Noel, 3 for Liam and 2 a piece for Gem & Andy. Tried as hard as I could to make it flow but the majority of Noel's best songs were done before 96 and the songs wrote by LAG were all done after 2002 so blended two different sounds and eras wouldn't work but still a good list of tunes.

The "perfect" Oasis album is 100% Noel. None of those albums so far are even close to being perfect...mix DM & WTSMG, 1-2 BHN/Masterplan and there you go... Supersonic RNRS DLBIA Roll WIth It CS Wonderwall AATW Listen Up SMS CNS Live Forever DGA
That's more like it. Admit it, songs like TUTS, Songbird or Soldier On just weigh down Noel's songs.

Agree with the above. Nothing against Liam, Andy and Gem, but ultimate Oasis is probably 90% 1994-1997.
Neverless, going off the criteria set:
Acquiesce Supersonic Some Might Say The Masterplan Songbird Eyeball Tickler Slide Away Don't Look Back In Anger Turn Up The Sun Live Forever Falling Down Whatever

I love the idea of this.
1. Acquiesce 2. Rockin' Chair 3. Live Forever 4. Talk Tonight 5. Supersonic 6. Half the World Away 7. Morning Glory 8. Slide Away 9. The Masterplan 10. Don't Look Back In Anger 11. Champagne Supernova 12. Married with Children
sorry to go off the criteria but I can't have any Liam songs ruining that tracklisting !

You should change the name of the thread because it's not the perfect Oasis album if you have to put at least 3 Liam's songs and one of Andy and Gem... The perfect Oasis album would be 100% Noel, there's no other way to do it. Only Liam's song I could have on that would be Songbird and only to not reject Liam at all.

1. Turn Up The Sun 2. Supersonic 3. Live Forever 4. Don't Look Back In Anger 5. Some Might Say 6. Meaning of Soul 7. To Be Where There's Life 8. The Turning 9. I'm Outta Time 10. Morning Glory 11. Falling Down 12. Don't Go Away 13. The Masterplan
I was really conscious of the idea of flow. I wanted mine's to flow. So I tried to stay within the parameters, yet still keep a good pace going. I didn't want back to back Noel sung tracks, but I didn't want back to back LAG tracks either. I also tried to match up with vibes and the grooves of the songs. And I tried to make sure that there weren't too many slow ballads in a row, and not to many fast paced rockers in a row too.

You included To Be Where There's Life? I literally sat here for 5 minutes trying to think of Gem track that would fit the flow, and still be somewhat good. I don't know what says about Gem, but........... Note: I'm not a big of TBWTL. It's just not a track that hasn't ever caught me.

The Hindu Times (Demo, not sure if thats allowed) Love Like a Bomb D'you Know What I Mean? Songbird Gas Panic Don't Look Back in Anger Stay Young Turn Up the Sun The Importance of Being Idle The Girl In the Dirty Shirt Live Forever Soldier On
Wow, that was hard. People will probably think this list sucks, but I was really conscious of the flow between songs from the 90's and more modern sounding songs like TUTS and Gas Panic. PS- not to toot my own horn but I think Love Like a Bomb is the most economical way to have a Gem song considering its also a Liam song.

It is also one of the best acoustic songs they ever did IMO
