Where would you put Flick Of The Finger among all the other Beady Eye songs? At the top, somewhere in the middle or down the bottom?
For the majority I think people class these as the best Beady Eye tunes:
Four Letter Word The Roller Wigwam Bring The Light Wigwam In The Bubble With A Bullet The Morning Son World Outside My Room
In my opinion I'd put Flick Of The Finger on par with Four Letter Word as Beady Eye's best song, absolutely love it.
Where would you rank it?

It's an average to good track for Beady Eye, which would make it a below average track if placed amongst the rest of the Oasis/HFB catalogue.

Four Letter Word The Roller Flick Of The Finger Kill For A Dream For Anyone The Morning Son
IMO their songs sound much better live but these are my favourite studio recordings.

At the monent it would be something like:
1. Wigwam 2. Morning Son 3. Four Letter Word 4. Flick of the Finger 5. In The Bubble With A Bullet
I tried to put it in perspective considering it has the emotion of being new. However, no other track from Beady Eye has got me more hooked than FOTF. This is the only song that has made me compulsively want to listen to it again and again.

Currently it ranks as my favourite post-Oasis song.
I always rate things a little higher when they are fresh though. Definitely my favourite Beady Eye song though.

I'd rank it near the top. The only two Beady Eye songs I like better are The Beat Goes On and Wigwam. But I'm liking this new sound they're going for, more modern and less trying to sound just like the Beatles. I love the brass section in this one and looking forward to hearing the more experimental ones on the new album. Makes me really look forward to it.
Top 5 Beady Eye songs would be..
1; The Beat Goes On 2; Wigwam 3; Flick of the Finger 4; The Roller 5; Morning Son

Wha? You're all mad, you know that?
Not even a top five Beady Eye song. I hear people talking about how it will "make sense" once we hear the whole album. I get that it builds up hype, but as a stand alone track, it fails to deliver. I'm calling this out as being one of those tracks which is universally slated a year from now. A subpar song masked by some shiny new production.
That new production is very, very shiny though. I'll give you that.

First of all, it's a matter of taste, it will always be a different experience for each one. If you don't like it, it's ok, we do. Secondly, I really don't get the argument you and other posters have made that it's a mediocre song masked by the production. Well, the song is the song, the production is as part of the song as anything else. It's like when you eat a hamburger, I don't think you go "hmmm, without meat this burger would be bad". You just enjoy it as a whole, or you don't. And I find FOTF to be very enjoyable as a whole, I don't go around thinking if it would sound as good without the brass or if it lacks a chorus. It's a very enjoyable experience for me to listen, and it evokes good emotions. And to me, that's what music is about, feeling more than thinking.

I'd put it somewhere in the middle. It's not bad (like BaS and SOTEOTN) but it's not really good (like FLW or WOMR) in my books. Maybe it'll be more interesting in the context of an album but on it's own it's hovering in the middle of the BDI catelogue for me
There are a lot of tunes hovering around in that middle tier for me though. I don't think I could order them.

I really think the bass took away from Liam's vocals.....and it needed to be faster, they should've sped it up a few octaves...
God bless.
