Just came to mind that by playing Going Nowhere for the first time, it's not only Noel who revisits the original recording but Mike Rowe too, who played keyboards on the original version.

"Saillll on". B side on an EP. Fuckin hell. Rejected for album which included “The Girl With X-Ray Eyes” and “The Mexican”. Mind you, did he say it was unfinished, then? Wouldn’t have fit at all on this mess of a record that is CY though. But it could have fit on CS. Just like Dead in the Water.

I wonder how often Noel is blown away by his own stuff he rediscovers from the 90s like Going Nowhere, like "how the fuck did I write that in my 20s?"

More like "how the fuck did I put that on a bside". It was great for us no question, but when the writer's block hit, i bet he was smashing his head against the wall with all these gems already released. Consequence is now we're not getting anything more than necessary.

The Girl With the X-Ray Eyes doesn't get enough hate on here. Atrocious plodding mess. And it was a single!

The Girl With the X-Ray Eyes doesn't get enough hate on here. Atrocious plodding mess. And it was a single! Noel usually sounds a bit skeevy to me when singing about women. Not in a sexual predator way, but he always makes it sound like the woman he's singing about is some kind of object or symbol or something, rather than an actual fellow person like himself. Calling them "girls" doesn't help, either. So yeah, mark me down as another one who can't stand that song.

I think I'm the only one who likes Girl With The X-ray Eyes 😩 Don't worry, I like it too. So you're not the only one even though I don't think it's one of the best tracks from Chasing Yesterday.

Love X-Ray Eyes, incredible tune to play at home. It's so good to follow that chords sequence, man.

Top 3: X ray Eyes Riverman Do the Damage then The Right Stuff While the Song Remains the Same You Know We Can't Go Back Leave My Guitar Alone is fun too, and damn well produced. I fall asleep with the rest.

"Open the Door, See What You Find" is such a guilty pleasure. I can't say it's a great song... I dismissed it at first but there's something in it... the mood, probably. The perfect soundtrack for a summer morning.
