I HATE the time/crime lyric -- almost as bad as noise/toys from Little James
of course GGTIA is far superior. But i feel its too lennon-eque. heh i guess its ok for a change, but i would hate it if this is what oasis switched too.....would be fuckin mega if they turned it into a rockin love song like Slide Away and DGA
my ranked Liam songs: Songbirg Love Like A Bomb Guess God Little James

Aaah, the time/crime lyric is alright. It's nowhere near as awful as the toys/noise line in Little James. Not even in the same ballpark, that one really is godawful.
I like GGTIA better than LLAB actually, but only cos I think it's a better recording. If you want to talk about being too Lennon-esque, the raspy recording of Liam's vocals on LLAB is up there as one of his biggest Lennon steals ever (he pulled the same trick on Won't Let You Down). Plus the song only really fills out instrumentally once the piano comes in. They're both still great songs though. Liam has left the dreck phase of Little James far behind (thankfully).

I love GGTIA one of the best songs on DBTT. that's some awesome songwriting. the end is brilliant. it doesn't work live but it's definitely a top song

yeah little james is also great. the lyrics are not great but they're written for a 6yo kid and music is really great

I actually think the music for Little James is really good and really Beatlesque. But yea, the lyrics are shit. I think GGTIA has shaky lyrics here and there as well...but it doesn't ruin the song for me.
My list : Songbird Guess God Thinks I'm Abel Love Like a Bomb Meaning of Soul Little James

I also like his HC songs. I think Pass Me Down the Wine is better than any of his songs that made it on DBTT.
