Liked the first listen, but SBOTA was the highlight of the set for mine.
Will play again now.

Repetitive and doesn't go anywhere - your prototypical Beady Eye song innit...6/10 for the redeeming melody and Liam's vocals. FOTF: 7/10 SBOTA: 4/10 DOSS: 3/10 To compare, DGSS definitely started out a lot better: BTL: 4/10 SOTS: 8.5/10 FLW: 7.5/10 WOMR: 9/10 If the first 4 songs we've heard are some of the best BDI has to offer for BE (as was the case for DGSS), then they're truly fucked. Hmm.. From DGSS, one B-side and one track that they didn't even write. That's great comparing. But at least your posts are entertaining. y'know, like the mad hatter is. |

Liam sounds excellent. Nice little number. It is reminiscent of "Nobody Loves You (When You're Down and Out)" off Walls and Bridges. 8/10

Great performance and all, but seriously, another one verse song ? How can they come up with that and all think it's a good idea ?
Even the radio host said later during the program "did they play the whole song ?". There's many way to enhance the tune and make it way better. It's not like they had other things to but write tunes. I really hope the album version saves that song, coz it'd be a shame, the melody is really nice.

I am normally vocal with my views on repetitive lyrics and my general dislike of what I consider laziness.
But for some reason this is not applicable with this track, the lyrics are irrelevant to me in a similar way they pull me in as the Columbia baseline does, the mood pulls me in and I don't know why?
There is a word that sums it up for me and before I get stick this could be due to my many life events that have happened of late, the word is ........
POIGNANT

Start Anew is OK...a bit repetitive. Liam is such a good melodist...why can't he write more than one phrases of melody per song?
Be interesting to see where the studio version takes it on that outro and what they do with the full band live.
He sounded great though. I was walking back from lunch when I listened to noasabians link on YouTube on my phone and I actually grinned like an idiot when Liam started on Start Anew it was that good. Must have looked psychotic walking back to work. Don't know why he has had such a hate on for acoustic all these year...that was amazing. Wish he'd been doing them all along.
Encouraging that they'll be doing more in the UK.
Still not keen on SBOTA but Liam sounded pretty good there

Been wondering why I've been finding the performance so strange. Finally clicked - first time I've ever seen Liam singing without craning his neck upwards to a mic. Ever. Looks like it worked here, and in one take too (!). Anyone know if he does this in the studio? Might be time to change |

I have to be honest and admit I am not overly excited about the album now. I have loved and grown up with Oasis/Noel/BDI and all they have done since I was 15 and Whatever came out, but to be honest if it was not Liam singing these songs I would not give them another listen (from what I have heard so far).
However, Liam is singing the songs and for that reason I will continue to listen to them and go to gigs as if his voice continues to be as good as it sounded today, who cares about the lyrics he and the band sound fuckin great!!!.
Roll on June 10th!!!

So your comparing the first 4 songs we've heard from BE (when there's 17 to choose from) VS the whole DGSS era? How does that make sense as a comparison.. The first 3 songs we heard from DGSS weren't the best so why would they be on BE? I was comparing the first 4 songs we've heard from the BE era vs the first 4 songs we had heard in the DGSS era. I thought that much was obvious. |

Your ratings are quite over the top, you give sots an 8.5 which pitched against other songs is probably what some might say would be and you give womr a 9/10 which would be of rock n roll star standards, maybe revisit your ratings and post something a little more relevant |

The more I listen, the more I like it. Put the song on in the background and read through the threads here, it really is soothing and great.

You can nitpick the ratings, giving WOMR an 8 instead of a 9 doesn't change anything. The point is, DGSS era began with stronger batch of songs than what we have heard from BE so far. The rest of the material will really have to be above average/good to cleanse the bad taste (some of us) have left from that period.

Fair enough, I've quite enjoyed what we've heard so far, but I was looking for a more atmospherical sound anyway, hopefully we all get something out of the other 14 songs we are yet to hear |

6/10 overall for its repetition and failure to go anywhere. 8/10 for melody which is quite catchy and beautiful. In other words, another great idea that wasn't developed enough. This is a song that needs Noels brilliance in songwriting to polish it up. Indeed. The structural part of the songwriting is weak. Melodies are good, but they can't get out of the loops easily. That's something Noel would do so damn easily. Intro, verse, bridge, interlude, chorus, refrain, middle 8, solo, outro... Zero redundancy, zero lack of direction. Plus: Liam's voice is good cos he sings soft... It's not the strenght needed at a proper concert. Regarding this last thing, I can't recall a song being sung this soft at a concert. |
