I seem to be creating rather a lot of threads of late, for which I apologise, but I enjoy knowing that there are others who wish to discuss matters about Noel/BDI as frequently and in as much detail as I. And it keeps things interesting between albums.
Anyway, to the point: Gem and Andy are both perfectly capable singers and were vocalists in their previous bands. I think they're both wasted on backing vocals. Why not have a few songs where they take lead vocals? If you're reading this, lads...

I'm not sure Gem/Andy singing would help anything. No need to add in something else to screw the pooch over again.

Beady Eye's greatest strength is their lead singer. Why dilute that with letting Gem or Andy sing? I might consider Andy to sing 1 b-side...maybe. Never been a fan of Gem with Heavy Stereo.

No. Liam all the way imo, if gem and andy can't even sing backing vocals live, what would be the point in singing full songs?...

Liams voice is the bands biggest asset, very important he sings it all.

I don't think so, one of the best things about Beady Eye is getting to hear Liam in all the songs. Andy and Gem have their good moments vocally, but nothing to write home about.

Why have anyone else sing when you have Liam Gallagher as your frontman?

Would be crazy for any member of Beady Eye other than Liam to sing. He is by far and away the biggest asset the band have and to waste precious release space by having Gem of Andy sing would be crazy in my opinion.

Essentially the feeling on this forum is that Beady Eye aren't a good band because of the music the write, but because Liam Gallagher is the singer. I see.

Well not completely but yea his voice plays a massive part in the appeal! Of course if Beady Eye released a record of S Club 7 covers with Liam on vocal I doubt people would still enjoy it! And despite Liam been on vocals a lot of people on this forum do not like the Beady Eye album. However in the Beady Eye section of an Oasis forum a lot of Beady Eye fans are going to enjoy Liam's vocals been the main ingredient of the band!

I probably would enjoy that tbh.

I would but only if they did a few S Club Jnr covers as well. A rocked up reach for the stars would be brilliant

A singer can sometimes overcome a bad lyric, or melodic failure. Why risk letting Andy/Gem do the opposite and kill a decent tune with a bad vocal? Just b/c the songs are good doesn't mean anyone can sing it and it is still going to go over well.

It'll never happen because gem and andy are timid guys who would never insist on singing the leads. It could happen if Liam thought a demo tape from either those 2 sounded great, leading him to conclude that the original vocalist of the demo should be the one singing. But as we all know - Liam is far too insecure and too concerned with preserving his alpha male status to let either Gem or Andy sing on record and potentially steal his sheiiiine.

I'm sure they can't possibly sound any worse than Liam on SOTEOTN, i say slot in a Gem/Andy duet as track #6 to break up the pace of the album a bit so it doesn't get repetitive.

A duet?! Oh dear god no. Some of Andy's backing vocals are bad enough!
I get that they are a band but they all have clear roles. Liam sings. Gem and Andy play guitar - I would like to hear more solo's though.

They need to concentrate on getting a decent performance from their lead singer and writing some fucking songs first.

To be honest, if DGSS was released by another band without Liam as singer then I probably wouldn't have paid it much attention. Liam singing is probably the biggest appeal for me.

Of course not, how would you jump to that conclusion? It's a sum of all parts, but why make it good when Liam's voice can make it great? Even with Noel's HFB you get the usual "imagine how Liam would sound singing this!", imagine how it would be with Beady Eye.

I don't think Liam will allow them to sing on the album in any case. But if he does I would love for Andy to get at least a b-side. I heard a sound check of Andy singing 'Thank You For The Good Times'. Pretty damned good vocals if you ask me. Gem I'm not to sure of. Anyway I don't think there's much chance of this happening with Beady Eye.

I think your way off base on that comment why would most of us feel bdi aren't good because of the music they write but because Liam's the frontman ,,I don't know you long enough to know if your just being sarcastic or truly serious but let me ask you this does anyone think less of led Zep because Robert plant sings Every song??? Or that sting sings all the police tunes or oozy sang all the sabbath tunes ?? No because they were true frontman and had partnerships the guitarists or base players or both wrote music they sang and wrote lyrics ,there are some bands that throw guitarists and such a bone ,,Keith in the stones and jack bruce in cream come to mind ,,,but Andy and gem aren't in that group Liam is the singer because the songs simply sound better with him singing them case closed
