Above are a list of songs that either the Gallaghers slag off or other people on here do. Vote for the ones that you think are harshly treated!

I voted for Roll with it, Whatever, She's Electric, All around the world, Mucky Fingers, Aint got nothin and Get off your high horse.
Although I think Whatever is one of their best songs, She's Electric is one on my favourites. All around the world is great even though its too long. Mucky fingers is a good song too, never really get fed up of it. AGN and GOYHHL are good but not great

Roll With It, people usually hate it just beacuse it was a single and also it lost that battle of the singles, still a really good track, live the chorus is imense.
High Horse Lady, alone it's weak, but on the album when it's playing, it has its purpose.
PYMWYMI, my guilty pleasure Oasis song.

Mucky Fingers - great tune, and I really like the lyrics.
One of the ultimate highlights of Don't Believe The Truth.

Roll with it: is often seen as a dumb song and why it's disliked is beyond me
All Around The World: It's long but so much fun!
Get Off Your High Horse Lady: Bit weak, but it works on DOYS, right before Falling Down it's perfect. I like the song itself too.
She's Electric: While some of the lyrics are completely cringeworthy I love it and the melody is great and it's catchy so stfu

I picked 6, but I'll choose the big 3:
All Around the World, loud & brash, the orchestra in it is absolutely fantastic, and the song gives you such a good feeling. It's the perfect way to close out the traditional 90s Britpop Oasis, when paired with the Reprise (the car door does the trick in that). I love the song, and I wish it wasn't so long, or else I'd listen to it more, but that's the point in it. Loud, brash, plenty of substance, and 2-3 key changes!!
Little James, I came here to post this one, to be honest. This song is loads of fun to play on acoustic guitar, the melody is great, and it's simple. The instrumentation on it is pretty cool, and fits the atmosphere of the meaning. The lyrics come across a little straightforward & cheesy, but I love how Liam sings it like he ESPECIALLY fucking means it. I'd still take out LJ, and replace it with Let's All Make Believe on the album, but with changes to the lyrics, LJ would be improved.
Force of Nature, it's the closest to "honky tonk", of some sort, Oasis has ever gotten to. It's awesome, though. Noel's vocals on it are pretty immense, the piano on it fits well with the interesting drum loop & raw guitars. I understand why it may get some hate for the "Smokin all my stash, burnin all my cash" line, but Noel's delivery of it makes up for the line A LOT imo. It's a good follow-up to The Hindu Times, and one song that doesn't deserve hate.

Sunday Morning Call, Roll With It and many other brilliant songs that people don't like because Noel said that he don't like them anymore. He's a fuckin' liar, don't trust him. It's all part of his tricky game. If you listen to what he's saying lately about his tunes, Stop The Clocks is probably the greatest song of all the time.

Own up, who voted Little James?! Makes children's nursery rhymes sound thrash metal.  |

Roll With It is like marijuana, smoke it once every now and then and you feel amazing, smoke it all the time and umm yeah its bad. Worst analogy ever I know...
Soldier On, doesn't get bashed very often but is often overlooked. The James Milner of Oasis songs.
Shakermaker often cited as people's least favorite on Definitely Maybe, I quite like it me especially that (Slide Up Mix) we got in the deluxe edition. Brilliant melody and I love the outro also.
I Can See A Liar. Shite lyrics and really shouldn't have made the album but its still not a bad song! Brilliant for a night out.
I Am The Walrus (Live at Glasgow Cathouse). Often cited as peoples least favorite on the Masterplan but I think its a bloody good cover and an excellent performance of it, possibly the best they did.

All Around the World gets thrashed by fans? Damn, I love that song. In my Oasis top 10 for sure, possibly top 5...love the sound, love the lyrics, wonderful melody - maybe the most uplifting Oasis song for me (which says quite a lot). A bit too long, yeah, but who cares.

Own up, who voted Little James?! Makes children's nursery rhymes sound thrash metal. The lyrics ARE laughable, of course, but the melody & instrumentation is fantastic on it, imo. That's why it got my vote. Plus, the lyrics add a certain "shit" charm you can kind of laugh of after a few listens, and sort of roll with, I guess. It's not a top listen of mine, but whenever it does come up, it's meh. |

Own up, who voted Little James?! Makes children's nursery rhymes sound thrash metal. I did! I think its quite beautiful tbh. When you put in context of Liam singing to his little step son I think there's nothing wrong with it. Oasis have put out much more meaningless, less tuneful drivel than this. |

Yeah, I think songs like Whatever, Digsy's Dinner, She's Electric and All Around The World shouldn't be on this list - I don't think they get any hate, maybe I'm wrong?
Whatever is a great great pop tune, as is All Around The World. They've both got great melodies, AATW is obviously too long and overproduced but with editing and reworking, it would have been a classic.
Digsy's Dinner and She's Electric are little novelty tunes that throw a curveball on their respective albums, has much in common with old English music hall, of which inspired Beatles songs like When I'm Sixty Four. Nice little tunes, not essential but gives a bit of variety to the albums.

I don't hate the tune, I don't love it, just kinda forgettable for me, but by no means the worst on that album (for me that would have to go to I Can See A Liar). I think Liam kinda expanded from the Little James template to more complete tunes like Songbird and The Morning Son. If the latter had been written during the Standing on the Shoulder of Giants era, it would have fitted well and actually be more suited on that album I think. Though Soldier On also has a Standing on the Shoulders vibe to it - well, the vibe I like from that album - and would work great on that album too. It just doesn't work on Dig Out Your Soul for me sadly because the damage has already been done with the previous three tunes, and by time Soldier On comes on, I couldn't care less. But taken on its own, its a good song and would be the perfect mellow closer if only there were some spectacular tracks immediately preceeding it. I'm thinking in style of Definitely Maybe with all the relentlessnes prior to Married With Children, then that last song comes on and it neatly ties up the whole album as its calming and a bit of a downer to bring you back to earth. Soldier On would do that job perfectly. |

There is nothing wrong with Little James. Nice album track, nothing special but not bad. Solid melody, nothing to hate about it. And about lyrics, just read first two words of the song. He is not talking to you, he is talking to little James. And little James is kid so he is using words and language that he will understand.
I'm singing this song for you and your mum that's all
Is it so hard to understand?
