I don't know when it was recorded in 2000 but the acoustic version of Sunday morning call was shown on Top of the pops, it wasn't part of the jools Holland performance in February 2000.
The first video is from a French TV programme they did 23/2/2000. They also played go let it out and I can see a liar.

Jools Holland 2000 has a great version of Where Did It All Go Wrong.

I think Sunday morning call would have worked better if it was acoustic on the album.

Sunday Morning Call was also performed electric during the Japan tour in early 2000.

The band recorded an electric version of Sunday morning call during a session at Maida Vale studios for the Steve lamaq show on BBC Radio 1 in January 2000. They also recorded an electric version of talk tonight, my generation, who feels love and rock n roll star.
I thought they sounded great during this session

Absolutely right, I remembered the acoustic show but had it in my head it was Later....for some reason (despite the clip on YT actually saying TOTP- More proof as if it was needed that I know nothing!  ). The Jools Holland show I remember watching as the BBC pushed it fro a few weeks prior as the first live British shows in nearly three years. For those that haven't seen it |

For those that haven't seen it I think some of the promo they did during the SOTSOG era was refreshing. They didn't seem to do sessions etc for BHN and hadn't really done any interesting promo since probably 1996. In 1999/2000 they did Acoustic performances for MTV and radio which were interesting. Gem assisting with cigar and Mike Rowe on keyboards. Electric full band session for BBC radio 1 including a new cover Jools Holland and French TV performances Was nice to see something different. Would have been nice if they had done similar for DOYS as I don't remember any acoustic sets (other than Jo Whiley BBC Radio 1) radio sessions or TV performances ...or am I losing the plot! |

Be Here Now they didn't really need to, they had the BBC do the "Right Here, Right Now" Documentary which was unheard of for that time- it was essential a profile and stunning piece of PR that no other band at the time received. Their media coverage at least in the UK was at it's absolute saturation point from the moment they had finished Knebworth and entered Abbey Road up until the release date, so I suppose they or management at least felt no need to push promotional pieces when everyone else in thew media was doing it for them. It's also possible after the MTV Unplugged and subsequent recording & touring issues that the less the band did the better, as far as they and their support network were concerned. The album itself was kept under tight security with ridiculous secrecy contracts being foisted on journalists and media outlets, including famously pulling a second night of BBC previews because Steve Lamacq didn't talk enough through the songs on the first night! It's a difficult one because of where the band where mentally when the release date loomed. Ideally they should have had time off after Knebworth, reconvened in the studio in the new year with just US Festival or support slot dates with U2 until the release, and then been ready to hit North America and Worldwide with promotion & touring as they were already well established in the UK. I quite liked the guerrilla busker gigs and artwork promotion for DOYS, which could have been matched by doing that in the major cities backed by special acoustic or live shows at the same time by the band, focusing on songs from that LP. I'm not really certain what would have worked for promotional purposes, but Oasis always seemed a bit half hearted at trying anything beyond the well trodden adverts/interviews/radio/tour cycle. But then hindsight is a wonderful thing. I'm sure the band would say they would do nothing different, but I wonder what Marcus Russell for example might have liked to have done differently at the various points throughout their career. |

Very interesting read Yeah regarding BHN your right it was saturation point Bet Marcus Russell was pulling his hair out at times due to the band! Yeah the DOYS underground bit was different, just would have liked to have seen a session or acoustic bit |

I think Sunday morning call would have worked better if it was acoustic on the album. Completely agree. All of the electric guitars, wah-wahs, keyboard "choirs" and heavy drums was just too much for a song that was so soft at heart. It almost hurts to listen to Noel's vocals because the whole thing sounds so sad and depressing, like everything is drowning in its own oversaturation. The guitar solo doesn't make matters better, either. A nice little 3:30 acoustic track with subtle drums and keys would've done the song well. Same with Where Did it All Go Wrong?. The demo was executed well, but the final version was a little overdone. Not as much as SMC, but still a bit on the overdone side. |

Just regarding WDIAGW, I quite liked the acoustic promo version they put out. I remember they also played a version of it on the American talk show the tonight show with jay Leno on 10th April 2000. they shortened it and it spead up. I thought it sounded good. I just can't find it on YouTube. |
