First attempt at a vague ranking after a few listens. It's harder than I thought and my opinion will probably change as soon as I've finished writing this.
Great/lovin' it! (in no particular order): Riverman Lock All the Doors The Dying of the Light While the Song Remains the Same Ballad of the Mighty I
Runner-ups: The Right Stuff You Know We Can't Go Back
Growers/weakest: The Girl with X-Ray Eyes In The Heat of the Moment The Mexican

Amazing, great:
1. The Girl with X-Ray Eyes 2. BOTMI 3. Lock all doors 4. Riverman 5. WTSRTS 6. ITHOTM 7. TRS 8. TDOTL
Good:
9. YKYCGB (verses are great but the chorus is just ok for me) 10. TM . It's a good song but the competition is too strong

1. Riverman 2. The Right Stuff 3. The Dying Of The Light 4. Ballad Of The Mighty I 5. You Know We Can't Go Back 6. Lock All The Doors 7. The Girl With The X-Ray Eyes 8. While The Song Remains The Same 9. The Mexican 10. In The Heat Of The Moment
That being said, there is very little to choose between 3 and 8. This is a consistently great album, something that could not be said about the later Oasis or Beady Eye albums.

I now feel like ballad of the mighty I is the best track on the album. Bravo to him for creating something very different. I'll need a few good listens to decide if I like it (which I do) or really like it? Anyone else think that the dying of the light is not as good as the demo? No I don't. I hated the soundcheck version and wasn't looking forward to the albumversion at all, but I actually think it's amazing. And it gives me goosebumps. Fair play. I will need another listen to it when we get the proper recording, looking forward to it

Again, I really don't like ranking music like this but if I had to:
1. Lock All The Doors 2. Dying Of The Light 3. Riverman 4. Mighty I 5. Girl With X-ray Eyes 6. Song Remains The Same 7. We can't Go Back 8. Heat of the moment 9. The Right Stuff 10. The Mexican
I love all of the songs so I don't like having to order them like that, they're all great and make for a fantastic album. Some of the titles are a bit long though and I'm feeling lazy, hence the shortenings.

Those are truly great and special for me:
Riverman Lock All The Doors The Dying of the Light The Right Stuff While The Song Remains The Same
The Ballad of the Mighty I is imo almost as good as the ones above.
The Girl With X-Ray Eyes and You know we can't go back are better than The Mexican and In The Heat Of The Moment, but not as good as The Ballad Of The Mighty I.
At the moment, I can't see it changing anytime soon, but it probably will.

1. Riverman 2. The Right Stuff 3. The Dying Of The Light 4. You Know We Can't go Back 5. Lock All the Doors 6. Ballad Of The Mighty I 7. While The Song Remains The Same 8. The Mexican 9. The Girl With The X-Ray Eyes 10. In The Heat Of The Moment

1. Dying of the Light 2. While the Song Remains the Same. 3. Riverman 4. The Right Stuff 5. Ballad of the Mighty I 6. In the Heat of the Moment 7. Mexican 8. Girl with X-Ray Eyes 9. Lock All The Doors 10. You Know We Can't Go Back
But the 7 first songs are awesome, it was really tough to chose the order.

I find now that when you play it all through on repeat you don't notice the Mexican, obviously cause it's surrounded by greatness.

Masterpiece 5/5: 1. Riverman 2. The Dying of the Light 3. While the Song Remains the Same 4. You Know We Can't Go Back 5. Ballad of the Mighty I
Great 4 or 4.5/5: 6. Lock All the Doors 7. The Right Stuff
Very Good 3.5/5: 8. In the Heat of the Moment 9. The Girl with the X-ray Eyes
Just good to okay 3/5 10. The Mexican
So all in all there's not really a bad song on the album, The mexian's an enjoyable song, it just pales in comparison to the rest of the album. Best album as a whole written by Noel since Definitely Maybe, even though the songs individually are a tad weaker than Morning Glory it flows better as an album.
