What do you think of the acoustic version of Champagne Supernova?
First, I thought it was great, and listened to it very often. At the moment I can't listen to it. I really hope he will do another Oasis song he has not played (Hey Now!)

It was an awesome moment to be a part of. Sounds good on the bootlegs too.

It's very good, though I'd prefer it if he kept the melody closer to the original.

It's difficult for me to judge this one, if you take it as it is and only consider the musical part, it' clearly not as good as the original and it's not even close, although it's still really good, but the way it's played (like Supersonic) allows you to hear the crowd singing along, and you know, it gets magical, especially when the Noel steps back and lets the people sing the chorus
I've been lucky enough to see it live and be part of that magical moment, it's something I'll never forget
Plus, yesterday's performance at T might be one of the best things I've EVER seen

The moment he started singing it in Belfast was amazing. No-one knew what he was playing then he started singing. That was one of those moments!

I don't like it tbh. It would be better with Gem doing a solo closer to the original than whatever it is that Tim is trying to play but sounds shit. I liked that Pretty Reckless acoustic cover a lot more, if Noel did that version it would sound amazing IMO.

It's good, not great. Would've been better had he stuck closer to the original (I'd say the same for Wonderwall. Never liked his Ryan Adams inspired version.)
Nevertheless, it has undoubtably been the highlight of this tour. When he starts and the crowd realize what it is, it nearly brings the roof down.

The sad part of this is , that the highlight of the show is this tune , and it's not even that great .....the way he re arranged it is boring , but the fans he has left are so hungry for Oasis , it's the showstopper ....was very let down once again on a scale of 1-10 i rate his gig a 5 It did not rock , it was not that long , but the seats were great and it's always nice seeing him seeing him , But supernova ACCOUSTIC is only for the fans who never saw it the way it was intended , so they go nuts ( very robert plant playing ZEP solo ) it just lacks the intangible ,,,sorry but it's true , still love the guy tho

Yeah the fact that a classic and one of the greatest songs ever written is the highlight of the show is so sad

Or maybe it shows how great and timeless the song is,no?
Unless Fade Away is an HFB song and EOTR,IIHAG,ITHOTM and WAL are Oasis ones of course

See supernova at Oasis shows were always a highlight , so when noel reworks it of course it will be a highlight at his solo gig because the crowd is so desperate ( myself included ) to see him recapture the old glory ( which he can't and that's fine ) is the song timeless  Absolutely , but the way he plays it now ? Not so much , there are some songs in NOELS catalouge that will be lightening rods for the crowd , supernova , recaptures fans heart , those other tunes do not , the crowd will always respond. To CS or DLBIA as if oasis was actually onstage , because down deep THATS what 99.9 percent of the crowd want Those other tunes may be oasis but they don't inspire , like CS. That is and will always be a OASIS ANTHEM and it brings out all the old passion ..BUT NOW , ITS MEH |

Who gives a fuck if the version is not as good as the original,that's not the point of it...when he's playing it you're there singing your heart out with thousands of people around you doing the same,and if you're not and you're there thinking "the original is better" "this version is shite" or "he's not as good as Liam" instead,then I'm genuinely sorry for you,and maybe when he comes there to play again you shouldn't go I'm not desperate about an Oasis reunion,so the next time I see him when he sings Champagne Supernova I'm going to the toilet And btw,Everybody's On the Run was as much of an highlight as CS and DLBIA when I saw Noel, carlober can confirm it |

I think the choir gives it a great atmosphere but when I've seen him sing it without them it's not as good.

Im not desperate for a reunion either ...in fact I think it would suck , ....( not done for right reasons so screw that ) And please dont tell me how to spend my concert money kid I've been seemd bands since before your parents thought of you so DONT tell me who and what to see ...I'll always see noel , but I am very fair i. My reviews are from what I saw and i judge it by from what I seen in the past , noel puts on a decent show. It's not great, it's not passionte, and that's cool. But jen he plays certain songs like supernova It will always be compared to the past and it fail so misrably......but I'll always see him and support him ...... Personally I think a reunion would now be pointless , much like " the jam " or "clash ". The time has come and gone ......

I didn't realise how much this divides the fans! I think it is played beautifully and is one of the highlights for me. I wasn't keen on DLBIA when it was played acoustically at the big gigs (it's fine in his acoustic gigs) and prefer it played electrically so of course, we have our preferences. I think once the tour is over, it's time for a new song but I really enjoy it.

it's a gift to the fans... and Tim Smith, who wanted Noel to play it last tour.
I'm not mad for CS, Fade Away or The Masterplan tbh. it's Noel playing acoustic with a band who's never been in the Oasis camp (except Mike Rowe). I think it's why it did work with Gem and Andy..being with Creation and all.. now if just feels like session musicians playing, even though they've improved their bits since the first tour.
give me any Oasis songs and I'll go mad. without a doubt. but I think his HFB set has become very solid. EOTR, TDOYAM, WAL, IIHAG, LATD, ITHOTM are all classics to me, for what a 'classic' means in 2015. and Dream On, The Mexican, Riverman and YKYCGB are pretty good at the gigs too.
I spent too many minutes on this, but here you go.

I liked that Pretty Reckless acoustic cover a lot more, if Noel did that version it would sound amazing IMO. That's a beltin' cover that. That and Lily Allen's I'm Outta Time are the only times I've heard Oasis songs done well by other artists. |

Champagne Supernova is Oasis' greatest song imho. Nothing will ever touch the studio version. Such a baeutiful vocal and the perfect dynamics and length.
But Noel's version is LEAGUES better than the way it was played at Oasis concerts for years. Liam couldn't sing it decently after 1996, it was one of the first songs that he lost the range for, and the band never got the speed right.

People like to forget that Liam couldn't sing a lot of songs decent anymore after one point. Also this is live. It doesn't, and shouldn't sound like the studioversion of a song that was recorded 20 years ago with a different singer. I do think the way he sings certain lines is a bit annoying though. But it's definitely the highlight of a Noel gig. It's an emotional experience, just like DLBIA really. |
