Ooh - never heard this one - does anyone have a link?

Thanks in advance,

TWB.

EDIT: Ah, is this the one that's also known as "Bye bye, My Family"?

I've been thinking about the same thing. It was the song I wanted on the album the most.
One reason it may not be on HFB is because some say it's a song "Don't Be Down". which is a song
he wrote for his daughter and he said it would never be released. But that was years ago, so the chances that they are the same song might be slim.

I just hope it will at least be on the next one. I don't think it will be a b-side though. Too good...

What's that theory based on? They both contain "don't"?
How would you sing the chorus if it actually was Don't Be Down?
Some people have too much imagination when it comes to connecting titles and songs.

Or is it also called 'Hold back the night' he says it at 1:38ish?

Love this song. The selfish part of me wants him to release it. But Noel is unlike other musicians who would release a private song about a family member for profit. If he says it's just for him and his daughter, that's probably how it'll stay. As for playing it during soundcheck, he was probably missing her and singing that song makes him feel better maybe..

Er, because it's a soundcheck, and not a live performance in front of a paying or invited audience? Anyway, about Noel's "you'll never hear it" comment about Don't Be Down - that was a one-off comment made almost 10 years ago. It shouldn't be taken as gospel, and never to be changed. It's like Noel saying he doesn't play Champagne Supernova during acoustic sets because "it's not a song to be played on just an acoustic guitar", when in fact he most likely wrote it on acoustic guitar, and there's a very famous story of him making Bonehead cry when he first played it to the band on just an acoustic guitar!

Can someone give me a link to the soundcheck?

I remember watching it ages ago but now I can't find it anywhere.
