Bored waiting to hear new stuff. Can someone create a fake story or a fake preview of a tune but pretend it's real? Just to tide me over for a bit.

Noel Gallagher's hotly anticipated debut solo album 'Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds' leaked today and can be heard on various networking sites.
the album, which is to followed up by a collaberation with london based DJ duo Amorphous Androgynous, is Noels first since leaving former band Oasis in 2009. Despite an acrimonious split, younger brother Liam is sure to cast a Beady Eye over his big brothers first solo project. High Flying Birds takes Noel to new heights with its variety of lighter waving anthems, old school disco tunes and new orleans jazz of lead single The Death Of You & Me.
AKA... What a Life is a definite step away from his Oasis roots and is a throwback to his work with The Chemical Brothers in the 90's and early 00's. (Stranded On) Another Beach is a mesmorising ballad of finding a way back to where you belong and what can be gathered by the inspirational album is that Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds belong at the frontline of music as this remarkable debut effort is, as many would expect, the older Gallagher sibling back at his absolute best. The album ends, fittingly, with Noels most long-awaited song, Stop The Clocks which leaves the listener with one final shiver down there spine before sliding away up in the sky.

Here's my quick review:
1) Everybody's On The Run - Epic tune. The strings and choir goes well with the pounding guitars. Sounds just like Ecstasy of Gold, only on steroids. The lyrics changed a bit, but still uses his signature falsetto to create a spine-tingling opener. 9/10
2) Dream On - A album filler. Noel tells hip-hop artists to fuck off and stop dreaming about wild sex parties, and says Liam is heading down that path. Sounds like "Mucky Fingers" and "Shakermaker" combined. 6/10
3) If I Had A Gun... - Wonderwall redux. A very emotional tune that will get guys laid like no other as its predecessor did in 1995. Women will like, guys will hate it, but won't be able to deny the strange it gives them. In any case, the song is of very good quality and is reminiscent of Don't Go Away as well. Lyrics changed too from the sound checks. 9/10
4) The Death Of You And Me - You already know. 7/10
5) Record Machine - Absolutely stunning. The choir kicks into full gear here and gives Carmina Burana a run for its money. No guitar solos, but the sound is epic and the demo solo is replaced by a mixture of choir boys, piano and a electric kettle. Champagne Supernova reborn. 9.5/10
6) AKA...What A Life! - A disco tune, nothing special, but quite solid. Should be a good single. - 8/10
7) Solider Boys and Jesus Freaks - Powerful song. Noel Gallagher's most passionate in a while. It is a political tune with heavy social commentary mixed in a story about two lovers trying to find a way out of the Deep, Dirty South. Noel takes a shot at brainwashed recruits and George W. Bush. 7/10
8) AKA...Broken Arrow - Noel goes country. Sings about his dog and family while classical western guitars kick into full gear. Features a guest appearance by Garth Brooks - 6.5/10
9) (Stranded On) The Wrong Beach - A great song that will remind people of The Masterplan mixed with The Importance of Being Idle. Talks about wanting to escape from a place you never meant to go to. 8/10
10) Stop the Clocks - This song will blow you away. Wonderfully done and sounds a lot more produced and mature than the demos. Guest appearance by Kid Cudi. - 10/10
11) Simple Game of Genius - Soft acoustic number mixed in with some electric guitars. Sounds like the sound check, just a bit different. 8.5/10
4 1/2 stars.

here is some real review. short, but that´s something "Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds takes off into directions Oasis could never have gone. From the New Orleans ragtime stomp of “The Death Of You And Me” to the Ennio Morricone-inspired, string-laden drama of “Everybody’s On The Run” and the choral swell of “(I Wanna Live In A Dream In My) Record Machine”, it’s an ambitious, rainbow-coloured epic of an album. It’s the product of an enquiring mind, fired up by new discoveries as much as a basic, unquenchable need to get a message out to the world." www.key103.co.uk/breakfast-noelgallagher/

OH MY GOD NOEL GALLAGER HIMSLEF CAME TO ME (in a dream) AND PLAYED ME STRANDED ON THE WRONG BEACH!
I was completely blown away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was absoultely amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There were some guitars, well at6 least one, and there was a voice singing, and the rythym kiknda went do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
it was so good!
Heres what I can remember from the lyriks@!!!!
------ Here I am now, Stranded on the wrong beach I wonder, what if it wasn't a plum, but a peach
I look to the suuuunshiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinneeeeee and seek through my soooooooooullllllllllllllll And realise I don't have the voice for good ol' rock and roll
I'm living on an island with a three ring cirus (berserk as fuck) And when it comes to songwriting, I'm outta luck
The grass is always greener on the other side but the people there look so Beady Eyed
They never slowed down, they kept right on driving And I'm alone over here just barely surviving
----- (Song suddenly picks up, beatboxing background comes in)
But this is Noelly Gee in the house and I'm a fucking flying bird And As I soar above I'll give all of you my four letter word I'm unstoppable, a commercial, critical and beautiful success so Liam & Andy, you're gonna be cleaning up my mess This is coming from a future knight it was nice to know you, but I'm flying off like a fucking...kite!
i dont feel embarrased to say i wet my pants that night, and only half of it was pee. it blew my mind.

so, it turns out Soldier Boys and Jesus Freaks features Eminem who performs the verses
the chorus is sung by Noel:
"We are not Soldier Boys and Jesus Freaks, We are High Flying Birds with birdlike beaks and when this album finally leaks, it will be in the chart for fucking weeks,"
godlike

The lyrics to If I Had A Gun leaked:
If I had the time I'd stop the world and make you mine And everyday would be the same for you
If I had a gun I'd end the wars and be done And everyday would be the same for you
Forgive me if I was a douche But that guy always Follows you around the room Cause you're the only Girl a man could ever need Lock and load the gun And shoot that man in the knees
La Laaa Lalala (x3)
Forgive me if I spoke too soon My eyes will only Follow you around the room Cause you're the only God a man could ever need Church is a disguise Cause all the world is make believe It's all make believe.
