There's no video. It'll never happen.
I asked to the guy who runs the official Oasis/HFB websites and he confirmed it to me a few weeks ago.

its strange but as I said before, I dont think they wanted to waste money etc on a video for a single that no-one will really buy, this late in the cycle its probably just easier to release it and get whatever they can from sales and leave it at that.

In the year 2016, a single without a video is barely a single.

When you look at it like that the Iz Rite single was really a dibacle wasn't it. couodnt agree more re singles. Once you buy the deluxe album there is no motivation what so ever to to buy it. Would be so much more modern and relevant to just drop a new song and create some hype for the tour,

Would be so much more modern and relevant to just drop a new song and create some hype for the tour, beady eye had GIU and evil eye that arnt available in the UK to have put on there at the very least, releasing two songs from the main album was just totally pointless, the only people likely to buy the single is us fans...weve already got the album so that single has no use except for the collectors that will just buy it to complete their collection. I still think they shouldve released flick as a proper single instead of that double A side, everyone loved that track and yet they didnt even use it that much, they shouldve played that on the voice not SBOTA. I think Noel etc from now on should release 2/3 songs prior to release with B sides and videos and then leave it after that then like you said release a stand alone single around this point where the tours still going but the album has been out quite a while just to generate some new interest.

Agree with all of this. I've said elsewhere on the forum the fact that Beady Eye have two songs unavailable for UK fans to buy despite the number of singles they released is such a waste. Evil Eye in particular is too good song to be basically be lost like that. Both lead singles for Beady Eye should have been handled so much better. Flick of the Finger is possibly the best track either camp have released yet bizarrely they pushed Second Bite of the Apple, a song I personally like but not one really likely to attract the new fans they needed, so much stronger. Their whole career is such a lost opportunity. Couldn't agree more over Noel either. The Dying of The Light was released over a month ago yet to the best of my knowledge he has done next to nothing to promote it and i don't think it even made the top 100. Scrap the Christmas single and then come back with a stand alone single, maybe even an EP (I can dream right) and play a new song or two on the second half of the tour. Everything gets a boost and feels fresher he would attract far more coverage then he has with the Dying or Riverman singles. Other than two or three songs and a few days in the studio he loses nothing. It seems so simple and easy yet sadly so unlikely.

In fairness to Noel the vinyl sales for all the singles were very good even if in the overall chart they didn’t do well. All five in the top 10 vinyl chart is impressive.
I’m glad Noel releases a few singles with some alright B-Sides even if they are only purchased by hard-core fans. At least we get some new songs after the album drops. If Noel wants a single to do well in the charts it should be a stand-alone one with a strong B-Side. But of course this will never happen.
I wonder if Noel will do another RSD release this year though?

We have excellent videos everywhere from unknown or little bands and artists. I dont think that a video is such a big problem or a serious waste of money for Noel's millions...
