The vote is what it says. What is the best from this era?
For me, it is All Around The World. I love the outlandishness of the track. The key change, the lyrics, the OTT guitars, Liam's vocals, Noel's vocals...everything

All Around The World.
I'd explain why but I can never do that without launching into a passionate tirade almost as long as the song itself which I believe I've done on about 6 occasions now.

This album seems to evoke the most passionate reactions from fans.
It's a choice between Stand By Me and D'You Know What I Mean? I'll go for the latter.

love aatw buy im torn between stand by me and dont go away I know Lennon2217 agrees with me that there big mistake was not making dont go away there lead single , think that would have been a smash stateside for that alone thats my choice Liam is deceptively brilliant on Stand By Me, the repetitiveness of the chorus makes you overlook it as a really great Liam vocal, but his delivery of "the cold and wind and rain don't know/They only seem to come and go away..." is stunning. Those two tunes I would say are probably the finest vocals he's ever laid down on record, certainly Don't Go Away, for me, is his absolute zenith. Knowing that he was singing that tune with his mother - who was suspected to have cancer at the time - in mind, makes that "yes I need more TIME!..." around the 3:50 mark, all the more intense. I was surprised not to see you go D'You Know What I Mean? to be honest, I thought that'd be right up your street |

I'm going to be controversial here, but I don't care too much for Don't Go Away, but I love every other tune from that album.

Stand By Me hands down, not only the best on Be Here Now in my opinion but also one of their best tunes. Sure it goes on a little long but a few minor edits can get it down without sacrificing the heart of it.
I think this should've been the lead single instead of DYKWIM, because whilist Don't Go Away would've been great, it is a very somber tune. Stand By Me has that great chord progression and catchiness that many Americans would eat up like they did with Wonderwall.
My other favorites off of the album are Be Here Now (the song itself), All Around the World, My Big Mouth, Don't Go Away, and DYKWIM (aka Wonderwall on Cocaine/Steroids!)

This is tough. BHN despite its messy and bloated nature it remains the 3rd best release (not counting The Masterplan) from either Gallagher. That said it is kinda of tough to pick out a bonafide best song. BHN gave us underrated songs like My Big Mouth, TGITDS, IHITIK, Flashbax, SML. It also gave fan or live favorites like Going Nowhere and Stay Young. Even the "just okay" songs had their moments (Fade In-Out, Magic Pie).
DYKWIM is one of their most underrated songs. I know that DGA would have been the better single at least in terms of success but I love that fact they released DYKWIM as the first single. Its like a total "fuck you, we are on top" type of song. Not among the top tier best Oasis stuff but it is one of their better songs and it is just them at their pinnacle (or saturation point).
Stand By Me, Don't Go Away, All Around the World are all really great single choices. All those songs are legit but it is hard to pick a best. I think I'll go for DYKWIM for reasons above.

D'you know what I mean? By a mile. After that it's between All around the world and I hope, I think, I know

DYKWIM would be the winner here for me, but songs like My Big Mouth, IHITIK, Be Here Now and IGBM are seriously underrated imo, I mean BHN does even make the poll it seems and it's the title track for gods sake!!!  |

I voted Stand by Me, but my favorite is Going Nowhere. One of my favorite Oasis songs ever. (Still, favorite ≠ best.)

DYKWIM is a great tune but for me the chorus has always let it down.
Voted Don't Go Away.
