Yeah I didn't really want to say it, but I think you've got a point. The fact he is apparently so ''unpredictable'' has, quite ironically, become predictable to me. It's getting old. I don't think the fact that they're in their fourties has a lot to do with it. Good music is good music, and a good image helps a lot with that. And they don't really have either. There are a lot of bands that are in their 40s or even 50s that are still massive. Look at U2 for example. Yeah but they were massive in a younger version of the same band. Beady Eye is not that and lost their principle, legendary songwriter. Big difference. Shit..........Gem, Andy and Chris weren't even in Oasis when it was historic.

I really wish they could. But sadly, you're right, that ship has probably sailed. Do you think there is any hope for resurgence, just as Noel did? Or do they simply need better tunes? I think it is a combination of average tunes, a band in their 40s and the public just tired of Liam's antics. It's ok when you are 25, not 40. Yeah. And with everything that happened last year...

I'm really curious about Noel's new album, it feels like it's a good moment and good vibe for his new material. The break was long enough,people are hungry for some good music.
First album had a great response so no pressure , but still it was i think Noel's intention to be quite reserved and kind of calm with the first one so there is still place to fill in with the second one. I don't think people are expecting Classic hit singles like Importance Of Being Idle to be on it , but that's the great position to take the public by the suprise i guess.
I have some doubts like will he consider to change his live band (hopefully), the production, don't mention videos which were truly awful and i wish i'd never seen them, but i know that Noel is a wise and talented artist and he knows what he's doing, good times for our ears ahead, that's for sure.

It would be nice if he had a bit more interesting guitar work on this record, and that he plays a lot of it live himself

If his tunes can stay brilliantly melodic and more pop than rock, then it will be fine.
If he veers into rock at this stage, very worried that we'll get an offering of 'dad rock', especially when considering The Good Rebel - one of his worst songs ever.

The direction he's taking seems pretty clear to me, he won't write a song like Rock N Roll Star or Some Might Say again, he wants to go another way He still has the talent to write beautiful ballads, the ear for melodies will always be there, but I can't see him being that bothered about writing a more "rocky" tune anymore, I might be wrong tho

I don't care if it's rocky or poppy. If it's a good tune, it' a good tune. I'm very curious what this album will bring us.

I would love some heavier guitar driven songs. Doesn't have to sound like early Oasis but something with a bit more balls would be cool. I loved HFB but I have missed good old guitar solos

Yeah the guitars got lost in the mix a bit, which made it sound soft.
Sigh. Gee, wonder who was responsible for that..

The Dying of The Light is one of the greatest songs Noel has ever written. As long as it is on the album, it will be enormously sucessful.

I can't see Beady Eye making any more albums, think they're finished tbh.
Got a feeling Noel's album won't do very well commercially either this time around. I predict a bluesy, Dylan/Stones kinda sound that won't appeal to young people, with no obvious single on it.

Well,maybe it won't be as successful as the other one,but he's got a very solid fanbase right now,so it won't fail commercially speaking

the other day on Facebook i asked Brian Cannon if he had finished Noel's album's artwork, to which i got no reply...think i'm gonna threaten to kidnap his family or something, then maybe we'll get some answers.
God bless.

God bless. If he hasn't replied then he's finished it maybe... he also didn't answer who was producing the album a couple months ago, so... i really think kidnapping his family is the way to get some answers. God bless.

Well,maybe it won't be as successful as the other one,but he's got a very solid fanbase right now,so it won't fail commercially speaking I agree. The strength of album sales has to do with the available fanbase and the strength of the singles (two things Beady Eye have always lacked in and those are a couple of the reasons they've contracted.). He has a strong enough fanbase to go Platinum in the UK and no matter how bluesy he gets, he's always good for a good hook or chorus. Singles is the one thing Noel doesn't have to be worried about. He's a singles making machine. He'll have strong enough singles, a large enough fanbase, and do enough promotion to do fairly well commercially. Maybe not as well as last time when literally everything fell in place for him, but pretty well.

I think what will be most interesting about the new album, which equally made BE an interesting album, are a majority of songs that aren't just leftovers from Oasis like we had with both albums first time around.

There's really no way to know that with Noel. It could be that, but then again, it is Noel. And he could have quite a few songs that he's been kicking around and have just now come to light. There could be one Oasis left over, then again, there could be 6-8. There's really know way to predict. Like any songwriter, Noel will always have a batch of songs on the back burner that he's been developing, demoing, and re-writing over a significant period of time.

But I'm more referring to the immediate songs that were potential candidates for spots on Oasis records, such as Record Machine, Stop The Clocks, and (I think) both If I Had A Gun and Everybody's On The Run. Also, does anyone know the history behind Freaky Teeth? How long has that been in development?
