I'm a big fan of High Horse Lady and i'm not a 'fanboy'  Oh yes, anybody that likes a track you dont is automatically a fanboy. Gotcha. (And there's plenty of Noel written songs I have a strong dislike for and haven't listened to in years, so don't reply with the "you obviously are a Noel fanboy" rubbish) i wont, YOU will do that for me though.... answer this, do you think this song is better than any song BDI has released? your arguments are always obvious. you're better off not talking somtimes. no, i'm not a good christian. God bless. |

I like GOYHHL (though that's because I listen to the unmixed version). And I do think this tracks is better than almost all the Brady Eye tracks. Am I fanboy? Come on Lgfaver, come off it. |

The trumpet section (from 2.08) is a bit like "so give me a start with a brand new heart..." (Underneath the Sky) then to a little bit of the Benefit of Mr Kite line. I was thinking the exact same thing. We rule.  |

What were you expecting? A big, grand, dramatic ballad for the first single? Or a psychadelic mash up like the Falling Down Remix? That would be a disaster. Personally, i was hoping for something similar in sound to "Step Out" or if it was a ballad or mid tempo song, perhaps something like "Sunday morning Call" or "Shout it out Loud". I mean i knew it was a long shot but those are what high expectations are supposed to be. I knew the "Live Forevers" and "Listen Ups" were out of the question. AND YES, i know it's only one song and that maybe... just maybe we will get a truly great song, a masterpiece. But come on, how likely to happen is that really? If you go back and read my posts from about 2 to 3 weeks ago, i was praying Noel wouldn't go the Falling Down/Idle route because although i don't dislike those songs, they don't lack punch and the IT or wow factor. Unfortunately this is exactly what Noel ended up doing. |

It's definitely a grower.... as someone said, it's a very nice little tune... I wouldn't say it's genius or amazing, but I really like.
For some reason I feel like it would fit as a Be Here Now b-side.
Im really curious about what else Noel might deliver...

And I do think this tracks is better than almost all the Brady Eye tracks. Am I fanboy? Come on Lgfaver, come off it. man... i really can't figure you out. Sometimes you seem like a smart guy, very objective(even though i may disagree with what you're saying). Then there are times when you act (or post, rather)like a fanboy. Like when i post stuff you agree with you're all cool and don't even acknowledge my post, but when i say something you don't agree with, you act like a complete fag. whatever man... you say this track is better than **almost** all the BDI songs, well then, so you're saying that Beady Eye has better songs than TDOYAM. that's cool. I agree with you then lol |

^ good god, enough already. we get it, it's impossible to utilize any more words in the english language to express your position on this 3 1/2 minute song.
"hoping for something similar in sound to step out"....
yeah so was stevie fucking wonder, I'm sure he could use another royalty check.

I agree with you then lol but BDI doesn't have COMPLETE songs that are better than this song, lyrically or musically. maybe moments, but not complete songs. i guess i'm a Noel Gallagher fanboy. this is the last time i'm comparing BDI and Noel's song for a while, at least. it's pointless. and you and your 'lol's are beyond annoying. think about it. |

I think it's better than all but 1 Beady eye track - World Outside My Room. Now that track is fantastic. And i'm not a Noel fanboy....I've seen Beady Eye live twice, bought all the vinyls, etc... And what does all this have to do with GOYHHL? I think that's a great track on DOYS. It's not my fault it goes over your head. Don't call people fanboys for liking a track you dont. |

I agree with you then lol That was the best response you had? You don't reply to my good posts, you act like a fag, and you're a fanboy. You couldn't debate me, so you resulted to name calling. If I fit the definition of a fanboy, okay. That's your definition. Apparently whoever like this song is not being purely objective. It's not like I've called it the second coming. Or better than the Masterplan. I have it as a solid 8/10. Nice tune. I only had 4 Beady Eyes tracks at a 8/10 or above. The rest were 7/10, or 7.5/10. So yes, I believe that this song is better than almost all the Beady Eye songs. I've always respected your opinion. Which is why many times I've chosen to ignore the posts that I don't like from you. And you have to admit, over the last 48 hours, I could have chosen from a lot (if I'm a Noel fanboy like you say I am). But when you resort to name calling, rather than proving your point, it makes you look rather small. I'm hoping this a bad day for you. Next time you want to debate me. Come at me with something better than, you never respond to my goof posts, you act like a fag, you're a fanboy. |

First impression was: Well, why not?
Second one was as follows: Where is the effing Repeat-Button? I need more of that stuff.
Now I'm completeley addicted to it and have the fear of overdoing it until the album comes out.

Very refreshing and uplifting and I am very pleased. It is very good, but people need to stop comparing to BDI, or at least until the newness wears off. Already better than anything BDI has done? I think that judgment needs to wait until more than one day after the song has been released. But I'm also a huge BDI fan so idk. It seems unfair to say its better than anything BDI has done, but I can see why I guess.

Sorry, but for me this song is just weak and I seriously hope Noel has got better songs up his sleeve. I would rate it a strong 6 to a weak 7. BDI have far better tracks in their catalogue already IMHO.

I like it but I'm not overwhelmed. Better than BTL imo. I would rate it equal to TR. But I also like POTQ and TIOBI so I eagerly await tuis album.
Video is fine but could not care less.

this song is crafted better than what BDI have put out, thats what gives Noel the edge and why he was always considered 'THE CHIEF'

Gonna be interesting seeing how Noel pulls this one off live. He really gonna have a bunch of dudes on trumpets on stage with him for the solo?!
I'm normally the sort of person where it takes a few listens to appreciate n like something, but for me I strangely really liked this song instantaneously.
Really like the Beady Eye album and think it exceeded everyones expectations but even that took a good 3-4 listens before I knew I really liked it. Really hope Noels new album does give them the push to up their game though.
Can see things getting very bitter between them in the next few months/years, even if they don't want to be compared, its gonna be the press that'll be the fuel on the fire and pitting the 2 of them against each other musically.

First impressions? Boring, bang average, Noel by numbers. Sounds EXACTLY like TIOBI (in tempo and flow) but with a choir on top. It might grow on me but it doesn't grab you it's a safety first solo single and if this is what he has chosen as the flag bearer for his album then the album will be boring and one paced as well. lgfaver is right, people are wanking over it bevause it's Noel and he can do no wrong. If BI had released this as their first single it would be getting slated by everyone. AMEN! IMO, this is a straight-up 5/10. Been a long time fan but, I do have my own mind. There are waaaay too many fanboys in here either that or secret Sourmash employees. Decent song but, cooler video. Give it two months or less and it'll be considered a forgettable tune. I can only hope the rest of the album makes up for this one. |

Still got much higher hopes for the likes of EOTR and others. |

I can only hope the rest of the album makes up for this one. This is becoming one of the more annoying arguments. If you don't like it, then fine. It's your own taste, and I respect that. But not everyone who likes this track, is automitcally a Noel Fanboy. It's as bad as when Beady Eye came out with their stuff, and people said "only Liam fanboys could like this". Please respect that others may have different musical taste than you. I think this song is in the vein of TIOBI. But I think anyone who says that this is exactly like or almost no different than TIOBI, has never really listened to the TIOBI (not meaning to take a shot at you Jilliam). They share some characteristics. In that there are the falsettos, and the acoustic guitar intro. But last time I checked, TIOBI didn't have this chorus, nor a horn section that sounded like it came out of New Orleans Jazz, along with the Magical Mystery Tour type song. It has some Noel calling cards, but he's definitely drawing from a different well of influence. It's a lot less Beatles/Kinks than TIOBI, and more Americana. |

Not what I expected at all. Kinda disappointed it wasn't more like the soundcheck.
Not a bad song though,a light little whimsical number.Radio friendly.
The horns add a lot.Without them I'm not sure this sin't an average song in my opinion.
And contrary to some on this forum,Noel does write average songs on occasion.
Obviously this tune has a lot in common with 'idle,but the horns do enough to provide a separation.
Hope the majority of the album isn't too similar to this first single though.
Video doesn't do the song any justice in my eyes. Wasn't impressed at all with it.
The album art is weird to say the least also. Not very inspiring at all. Doesn't grab you if your walking by the music racks in a store.
A lost opportunity I think to attract casual listeners.

It's exactly what I was expecting. Modern day Noel by numbers with a decent melody. I don't have strong feelings for it either way - it's decent, nothing more.
I think it's confirmed what we already knew more than anything else.

The reaction over virtually every website (non-oasis included) I've observed has been overwhelmingly positive to ecstatic, an example: www.nme.com/news/noel-gallagher/58231but I'm sure they're all "fanboys" or mash employees too. many times the biggest fans are the hardest to please, ironically. |

Don't call people fanboys for liking a track you dont. what hypocrite. that's just what you're doing. posting smartass remarks or straight up laughing at posts who think Beady Eye has better songs than this. |
