I did not expect Noel to go all avant-garde on us, and he didn't. It's all very natural, like he said so himself. It's just that stuff like The Right Stuff would never end up on an Oasis record. Nor would stuff like Ballad Of The Mighty I or What A Life! Oasis wasn't a band for experiments, there was simply no room for that.

Who selved the DIV sessions and the AA album? The same man who says that he is making artistic and eclectic music. That's pure hypocrisy for me.

That's pure speculation as we haven't heard anything (bar SAHITS, described by Noel as the "one good thing" from the AA album) from those sessions.

Nor would stuff like Ballad Of The Mighty I or What A Life! Oasis wasn't a band for experiments, there was simply no room for that. I disagree with What A Life and even Ballad of Mighty I think the blue print of these tracks were laid in Falling Down which was a very different sound for Oasis. Im sure if Falling Down was a noel solo song people would've said no chance would that been an oasis song. The main reason Oasis didnt experiment is because Noel was scared to alienate audiences and evolve that sound, i know he likes to blame Liam saying he would only sing this or that and I'm sure that is a factor too but they could've moved forward, if they took a risk. Like they say if you always do what you always done, you'll always get what you always got. That along with Sardy and not putting out the 10 best songs available but 5 noel 5 the rest of them songs, is what killed oasis in the 00's Im more than happy with the way things have panned out some great music and great gigs from both Gallaghers so us as fans win

I'm a genuine fan and I don't want a reunion. Agreed!! Not when we are getting brilliant records from Noel. I'm loving his solo work. An oasis reunion is the last thing on my mind.

I would be happy if the reunion would be noel + liam. Not happy about noel + kermit.
By the way, IM THE FIRST Liam FAN but today he's not good as he was.

Oasis could be any kind of band they want. If you have the tunes GO for it and release an Oasis album no matter if its a space rock jam or a 60s sounding retro album or an elctrowhatever. i dont get all these bullshits about "People who go on about an Oasis reunion, they’re not artistic people. Artistically, you wouldn’t do it"!!! Why not? what's the problem to release your songs under the name of Oasis if you believe that the songs are good?
if Noel cant stand Liam, if he s happy with his solo career that's ok, i respect that. But all the other Noel's excuses are just poor bullshits, imo.

Noel mentioned in an interview Liam would moan if he brought in a track like The Right Stuff. Interestingly Oasis output really declined when it turned into everyone having their say and their songs. Noel it seems is very much creatively a loner.

We know Liam can be a bit narrow at times, now try experimenting when four people have to agree.

Reasons why I don't want an Oasis reunion:
1) NGHFB, BE and Chasing Yesterday are far more interesting than anything Oasis have made after 2000.
2) Liam, Gem and Andy are poor songwriters compared to Noel, bar a few exceptions. Most of their Oasis stuff was bad and shouldn't have been on the records. BE was a very good album overall, but it still lacked something in the songwriting area.
3) As a consequence of the above two statements, I'd rather have 10 Noel solo tracks plus 10 LAG songs every three years. I don't want to wait the same amount of time to get only 6 Noel/4 LAG songs on a new Oasis album, or only 10 Noel songs on a Oasis album. It's just a shame that Beady Eye isn't anymore, but hopefully Liam will get involved in some new music sooner or later.
4) This is not going to please some people around here, but I don't really want to hear Liam's voice going bust after two gigs in the tour, and I don't want to hear him cutting half of the last word of every line. We won't get '90s Liam back, get over it! That's the Liam I want to hear, that's the voice that made me fell in love with Oasis.
I want '90s Oasis, not a poor imitation of them. Thanks god we have DM, WTSMG, Be Here Now, Masterplan and countless live performances from that era. If you miss real Oasis, go and listen to those...

So if a friend of mne wants a reunion he's not a genuine/true fans? Ok, I'm about to tell him that, he's not an Oasis fan. Are you really saying that? Really?
BULLSHIT.
I Love Noel but he's talking shit. Nobody, nobody, should say to someone that s/he's not a true fan because s/he wants the band he loves getting back together and Nobody, nobody, should say to someone that s/he's not a true fan because s/he doesn't want it.

From a creative point of view, there's no rational explanation. I think he sees it from the point of view - like many - that it's an option of either new, exciting and brilliant creative output from our favourite songwriter or a trip down memory lane with live performances that hark back to the glory years.. but never come close to the glory years. From a hardcore fan perspective for myself, I want more more and more NEW quality, and I don't want to rely on the same old tunes I've listened to day after day after day like an Oasis reunion would bring.

So I'm not the only person in the world who thinks the original version of All Along the Watchtower is still the best. Good to know.

interview in the paper today :
"I wrote Lock All The Doors' chorus in Paris just before I joined Oasis, more than 23 years ago"
"it should have been on Definitely Maybe and on... Morning Glory but it wasn't finished yet. I tried to finish it off near the end of Oasis, but with no success."
