^ It was written in '92, IIRC. There you go, I knew Going Nowhere was old, but I didn't think it was that old.... I was wrong, it's even older: Going Nowhere “That was written before we had a record deal. It’s about what we were going to do when we got all the money. But we didn’t record it until 1997. I don’t know why we never done that one. I like it, I like the fact that we just finished the album and there were million guitar tracks on the album. There was only me and Whitey present at the time because everybody was just having a hard day or just had enough really. So I just went in there with Whitey and done it on an afternoon. The song’s really old, probably from 1990. That one was pretty spontaneous, we just got everyone down there and sort of done it.” (Gallagher, quoted in Melody Maker)

Actually Going Nowhere was not written afterwards. It's one of the oldest songs Noel ever wrote, dating back before DM was even released. I read a quote from Noel somewhere saying it was the oldest song on The Masterplan album. The clue is in the lyrics, which is all about dreaming of wanting to be famous, and goes against everything during the BHN period, which is why it probably never ended up on the album. Duh, my bad! Should've doublechecked what I'm writing before posting.

hmm, they actually screamed themselves?....should of just hired someone to do it - or get some fan girls into the studio. He still calls it a flop, he really has issues with this LP.

I think he's being sarcastic when he calls it a 'nine million flop',
His ego is basically telling people this album is considered a flop by everyone but still sold more than most bands have in their entire career

I understand that personal and professional memories of that era could cloud his judgement, but I would like to see him give an objective retrospective appraisal of what, for both positive and negative reasons, is an era defining record.

They only did DYKWIM and MBM after 98 live and im pretty sure Noel knew then fans would have loved a few BHN songs. So i think that made it clear what he thinks of the album.

His opinion clouded by past personal memories and critical opinion maybe though was my point. I agree with you as it happens, I think his mindset is it's a shit album with no redeeming features, but I was saying it would have been good if he could have reappraised the album objectively and included versions of some of those songs in subsequent tours, etc.

yeah forgot about it and also about DGA. Doesnt matter. Live they left the album out actually compared to other albums. And we all would have loved at least one of the BHN songs live i guess. Noel just plays it safe, not that any critic would care if they would have done BHN song live but imo he thinks its bad for his reputation so he sticked to songs that everybody loves. And yeah its also Liam who either didnt even remember some songs or just couldnt sing them anymore but come on it would have been possible to do some more BHN songs after 98...

We did sort of get something from him last year, when he said he went back into the studio to look at producing an edited down version for the remaster, but then realised when he played it back for the first time, that to someone, this is their favourite album, and who is he to go back and kind of edit it from history? I'm pretty sure (though wouldn't state my life on it), that he said that actually, some of it was "pretty good". That's probably as good as we're gonna get from him. And true to form, the very next week, when promoting Chasing Yesterday, he reverted to form and said "my new record can't possibly be as bad as Be here Now."

oh and guigsysEstring... If, with the literate, I am Impelled to try an epigram, I never seek to take the credit; We all assume that Oscar said it.

Disc 1: Be Here Now album poorly remastered version that sounds worse than the original. Disc 2: B-Sides and alternative versions that sound basically the same as the originals. Disc 3: Poor sound quality live tracks that are worse than the bootlegs.

Oh wait... I've said this before, about 10 fucking times in the last 18 months. Fuck you Noel.
