Don't Look Back In Anger is like nails down a chalk board for me now. I cannot bear it. I know its a great song I've just heard it to many times.

^^Nails down a chalk board is bit much but I see where your coming from. I haven't listened to the original version in ages.

Also, I think they never nailed Champagne Supernova live. My favourite version is from the 2000

I never understood why The Importance of Being Idle is considered one of Noel's better songs. Personally, I don't think its very good.

doesnt seem so, even got the title wrong. after all these years. The US and Canadian versions of Definitely Maybe incorrectly listed Digsy's Dinner as Digsy's Diner. EDIT: Sorry, someone already pointed this out. |

The Version of Wonderwall at the olympics closing cermony was shite. Beyond woeful.
I hate Cast No Shadow. As well as Hey Now.
Knebworth was overrated.

I actually really like Magic Pie. It has some solid lyrics in the verses, and an absolutely epic sound. Sure, it's a bit too long, but the guitar solo is worth listening to the majority of the song, in its own right.
Honestly don't get the hate for it, it's not exactly TNOR, AGN, LJ, etc., is it?

I agree. I've always loved Magic Pie. I think people get mad because Magic Pie got on Be Here Now over Stay Young. In reality they probably both should have been on the album. You can dump The All Around The World reprise or just make it apart of the full length version and end the album that way. |

I prefer Magic Pie instead of Fade In/Out.
...in terms of melody!

I love TIOBI,it's one of my favorite song,Noel voice is amazing,i love the melody and the guitar solo (it's very easy,but for me it's beautiful)
I don't like DOYS,for me the worst oasis album
I think that Zak Starkey is the best oasis drummer,better than Alan,Tony and Chris
And for me Roll with It and Shakermaker are shit

It could be because it was the first Noel-sung Oasis tune that was a bit of a dud. On Morning Glory he sang Don't Look Back In Anger, on Be Here Now we got Magic Pie. Personally I've never liked it because I just find it very boring and the lyrics are (IMO) embarrassingly shit. |

Magic Pie is an overblow piece of shit, like themanwithnoname said, from a Noel sung song DLBIA to MP it was totally downhill, he should have saved The Masterplan for the album or put Going Nowhere instead.

Shakermaker is crap. And Hey Now! is a top tune Oh, for me its backwards, sometimes Hey Now sounds tiring. Hey Now! should end when it first goes quiet. The last minute or minute and a half are completely pointless. It sounds as though this might be where the band started going overboard with the studio sessions. Not everything has to be over 5 minutes! However, I think it does fit well with the album as a whole, but I don't like it individually. Sad Song is better than an extra track on a vinyl release to me. The Masterplan album was a waste of time and efforts. I love the idea of giving fans outside of the UK a chance to get some of the great b-sides, but this album lacks in flow and doesn't even have all the great songs. It was poorly marketed, b/c after BHN, management clearly weren't sure how to proceed. No singles to help it be relevant. A bad Acquiesce video. 'The Swamp Song' and a drunken 'I Am The Walrus' would have been better left off entirely. Again, love the idea, but hate the execution of it. The individual tracks are good, but its hardly an "album" with how it flows. I'm convinced that they never did a post-2000 version of this b/c the first version was a disappointment. I prefer Liam's Better Man to Soldier On any day. |

I prefer Liam's Better Man to Soldier On any day. I agree with a lot of what you stated. Personally I liked The Masterplan album idea. Back in 1997-98 it was expensive as shit to get Oasis imports, usually $12-15, which is like buying a full album but only having 4 tracks. However, by the time of its release I had all the b-sides anyway. I would have loved if Round Are Way, Sad Song and Step Out had made that compilation. Especially Round Are Way. What a fun and terrific b-side! I think the "2000" era b-sides compilation was scrapped for two reasons. The first being demand. Did the world really need a second Oasis b-sides album? No, the world really wanted another GREAT Oasis album. The second reason IMO was the lack of Liam sung b-sides. I think if you collected the best material from 2000 to 2009 it's going to sound like an unofficial Noel solo album. To be fair Liam did sing on some great b-sides (LAMB, TYFTGT, Eyeball, PMDTW) but Noel pretty much sang the bulk of the best stuff. |

Yeh I think there is a similar problem on albums, especially SOTSOG and HC. SOTSOG had Sunday Morning Call, Where Did It All Go Wrong? and One Way Road which were all great imo along with others but 3 Noel-sung songs on a 10-song album that started with an instrumental? I wouldn't have felt like an oasis album. Heathen Chemistry had a lot of Noel-sung songs as well but they were all mid-tempo ballads really and that album needed some rockers |

I listen to Oasis so little these days it sometimes takes me a couple seconds to remember the name of the song I'm listening to.  God bless. |

I never liked Falling Down. RIght now it's the third worst song on DOYS for me, just above TNOR and AGN. And I hate TM the song even more. Completely seized me for a few days some weeks ago, to my surprise, then naturally got forgettable again. I've always liked Slide Away but due to excessive listening, nowadays I can't focus when I listen to it. Real tragedy..  Had Liam been able to write decent lyrics, I believe the dynamics inside the band would have been completely altered around the time when Noel's classics have begun to dry up after MG, and they would have paved their road further upwards with much ease. |
