Ok, so I've picked one song from each album that I believe as a whole represents the dullest on each respective album. There's also an 'Other' option if none apply, but please reply with your choice.
And by dull I don't necessarily mean 'bad', for example: She Is Love is cringe worthy, but I wouldn't consider it 'dull' when compared to the likes of PAITM. Dull, bland, etc.
Note: Be Here Now was hard to pick, nothing dull about that album! Whereas (almost) the entirety of Heathen Chemistry could be included! In any case, what a terrible listing of songs we have here! DULL AS FUCK.
For what it's worth, I went with Hey Now - the album deserves so much better than that insipid song.

Probably All in the Mind - its not the shittiest thing they ever did, but my God they and Marr for that matter never sounded like literal paint drying on the wall. Its dullness makes it that much worse and its definitely my least favorite Noel written song regardless of the album. Shit dad rock "psychedelic" guitar with pretty lame harmonies from the Gallagher's. Rhythm section a total Beatles rip as well. Just sounds flat and uninspired and honestly dullness sometimes is worse than being outright bad.
Special cases of badness have a place in my record collection but dull art is the worst art in my opinion. Its expression, make me feel something at least!

You've Got The Heart Of A Star It's a nice song but yeah, it tends to be dull. Agreed.

Probably All in the Mind. Cast already explained a good portion of why it deserves the title of "Dullest Oasis Song", but I'll further that point. It falls right after A Quick Peep, an oddly chosen track for the album that leads into PAITM, a drab dad-rock tune that officially starts off the worst back half of an album Oasis has ever released (bar BOADC) on an album where the band needed to redeem itself in one way or another, with SOTSOG being a commercial flop. (Oh, and Beady’s Here Now, I changed my mind on Carry Us All. That's an alright tune. Not good, not bad, just a nice middle-of-the-road tune with some lyrics that are FAAARRR from middle-of-the-road lol)

Where is Little By Little? Not dull, just lackluster in the lyrics department.

The drums in Hey Now's chorus are so limp I fall asleep.

Where is Little By Little? Not dull, just lackluster in the lyrics department. I'd argue that both the verse and chorus melody are really dull and generic Noel. The bridge however, is quite exciting.

And while it's not the most riverting piece of music ever made it's fine for what it is. I just think it suffers from poor placement - two similar down-trodden Noel sung songs back to back (WDIAGW & SMC) makes zero sense, but I kinda like SMC....

I'm surprised that TNOR is leading. That song has some shit lyrics, yes, but the intro and the riff is pretty kickass, plus the guitar solo is alright. It does end a little awkwardly, but it has a certain finality that leads into Soldier On really well. It's not the worst Oasis song, but I will say it is in the bottom 10 or so, and it even has some redeeming factors to it, which goes to show just how Oasis was, even at their worst.

I Can See A Liar is a good candidate in this league. ICSAL isn't good, but I'd hardly qualify it as dull?

Fade In-Out? I fucking love that song! For BHN I would have definitely said Magic Pie was dullest
I choose Nature Of Reality, so so boring, closely followed by PAITM
