Liam's next move is very important in his career, imo Beady Eye are doing well for themselves and are being unfairly criticised but they aren't selling as they expected to.
I think his best move at the moment would be to release an album of his best songs of the following:
1) Love like a bomb
2) Songbird
3) Soldier on
4) Eyeball tickler
5) Guess God thinks i'm Abel
6) I'm Outta Time
7) The meaning of soul
8) Two of a kind
9) I believe in all
10) The morning son
And could even have a second CD with:
1) Aint got nothin
2) Shine a light
3) Start anew
4) Soul love
5) Boy with the blues
6) Born on a different cloud
7) Better man
8) The beat goes on
9) Wigwam
10) Man of Misery

9) Wigwam 10) Man of Misery I couldn't disagree more. Plus Liam didn't write many of those tunes. The best thing for Beady Eye is just to soldier on, make another album and stay silent on how good it is. |

all-star. solo. album. Thanks. I think Liam could pull off an interesting solo album but the timing isn't right yet. I would imagine a potential solo album would have a lot of guest songwriters and feature collaborations with Serge from Kasabian, Paul Weller, Death In Vegas boys, Johnny Marr, etc.  |

BDI need an extended break....another disaster and they're done, and i honestly think they're done now. God bless. |

I would tell him to stay in Beady Eye, and ban them from listening to The Beatles, give them some new music and lock them inside the studio until they come up with an original piece of work.
Originality is key, if they continue to be as derivative as they are then the failure they are experiencing just now will only get worse. And to be honest, I don't know how much lower they can stoop to.
They've genuinely got nothing to lose now. That should be the impetus to be creative but I can't help but think Liam, Gem and Andy will remain the biggest luddites in music and instead of being influenced by modern sounds they will most likely undertake a seance and try to summon up the spirit of John Lennon.

They dont give a shit to be modern just to become more popular. We are Beady Eye and if you like us great if you dont ok. Problem is quality of tunes not that they are retro. And songs are average but on the other side maybe even better than you would expect if you look their songwriting in past 15 years and that they are older every day. Beady Eye will never be great you guy have to deal with that. They dont have capacity. They could choose better songs for singles and have better managment and that could change things but just a little. |

Do whatever he wants to do, as long as it involves singing and performing and writing, with whoever he wants to and vice versa, ideally, if he'd ask me and if they all still want to, as Beady Eye.

It will never happen but... All members of Beady Eye should release solo albums and then tour them together. That way they remain a band but get the publicity boost of a Liam solo album. And we get three albums  |

Liam needs to go solo. I think he d get more attention as just liam gallagher. An album of his best songs smacks to me as a beady eye greatest hits. And that's laughable. But I also think he needs at least a year off. Maybe more. Espically with noel on the verge of something. 2 years time he could relaunch.

The notion that he releases an album of his "best songs" is laughable. As much as I like Beady Eye, they don't have the pedigree of bands that can get away with doing such a thing - it wouldn't happen.
He won't go completely solo either, it's a ridiculous idea. What would he do? He couldn't just sing his own songs, and what's the point of going "solo" to sing Noel, Andy and Gems songs? Crazy.
The most likely outcome will be a bit more of a break, followed by either another Beady Eye album or the potential of an Oasis reunion - a new album is what I'd prefer from him but it seems to be more and more obvious that the only way out of where he is now is an Oasis-related cash-in. Sad but true.

Sad but true. Best bet is an extended break followed by another Beady Eye album in 2-3 years. Something tells me Noel's new album will be just as successful as his debut, which would result in Noel not really wanting to reunite Oasis. He has no reason to. He's selling similar amounts of albums, playing to similar size venues of people without the hassle of a band. If he wants to sing Oasis songs, he has and can at any time. He's really playing with house money at the moment. Anyways....back to Liam and Beady Eye. Hopefully they continue on. |

They can afford to release another album but beyond that, the only way out of their current situation and the only means of progressing from here involves the word "Oasis". It's the elephant in the room really. As much as I feel Beady Eye can produce more music, it seems like a bit of a dead-end road to me, because the whole Oasis thing is always at the back of their minds. That said, I can genuinely see Noel continuing in a similar vein to now. You're right in saying his forthcoming album will be another success. It's just a question of where his heart lies - his head obviously says HFB, it's been a successful venture. But he'd be lying if he said Oasis wasn't in his heart. That makes it all the more frustrating for the likes of me, I'd rather have another decade or more of Beady Eye and HFB. |

Spot on. I think Noel likes the idea that he's like Paul Weller (but bigger), and can laugh of an Oasis reunion & keep his cred as a solo artist like Weller has with the Jam. |

He will release a solo album in 2015, with collaborations including Slash( he fuckin works with everyone), Johnny Marr, The Prodigy and even a surprise rap from Wretch 32 on one of the tracks. The album will be imaginatively titled: LIAM and will feature Liam's best vocal performance since Morning Glory. The album will be supported by a world tour featuring Bonehead (who co-wrote several of the songs), and will see Liam playing at venues such as Wembley Arena and Madison Square Garden once again.
You heard it here first.

The thing about Beady Eye is very simple. Neither Liam nor some of Oasis fans can't understand that it's 2014 and there's no such thing as being the best band in the world or selling milions of records anymore. They are a good rock n roll band, nothing less, nothing more. If he used to think that he's god and everything he'll do will be better than Beatles now he knows that it's not. And if he really is that self confident now is the best moment to prove that by releasing a third album. It's easy to be arrogant when all you do is standing still,getting drunk and singing your older brother's hit singles. To build a trademark of a new band built on the ashes of band like Oasis without main songwriter it requires balls, lot of hard work, and probably much more time than 2 albums. Music industry climate at the moment won't help them neither. And solo career? What would be power engine of that? His voice? The best thing about Beady Eye is chemistry between the guys, the fact they actually ARE a real band, and the message of the songs. They should stick to that and go on.

I chose Leave Beady Eye and retire till an Oasis reunion. I know a lot of people on here enjoy them but they do nothing for me. If retire completely was an option I would have chosen that. I really dont need to see a reunited Oasis.

If only the second album BE had been their first, a lot more people would of got the chance to hear it, oh well it's done now.
The next move for Liam IMO is keep a low profile and to hire some pro songwriters in to write a hit song and to get Dave Sitek back to produce some new sounds. Also forget trying to write 12 songs for an album, the album format is sadly over. Concentrate on 2 - 3 bangers that are so good, that radio & tv won't be able to ignore them. |

get Tony, Bonehead, and Guigs back and reform THE RAIN! woo!
i really dig Beady Eye....but i think Gem is a really boring musician. I think Andy Bell and Sharrock are both pretty damn good....but ditch Gem and get Bonehead back in there! (sorry Gem :/) Beady Eye have so much potential.....i really enjoy BOTH albums quite a bit....but there's just not enough emotion there.

It would be great if Liam formed another band or teamed with other musicians for a one-off EP or something as Damon Albarn does. Not leaving Beady Eye but as a side project while the band get their shit together.
And the same thing for Gem/Andy/Chris, they should try something else so they can get into a studio together after that with a new perspective.
