There aren't 10 songs up there I think are good enough to get on Noel Gallagher's debut solo album. Never have got what all the fuss is about with the High Flying Birds record. At its worst, it's as dismal as anything 00s Oasis did. And at it's best, it's about to the level of songs like Falling Down: pretty bloody good, but you couldn't call any of it 'classic Noel'.

But that's just my opinion.

IMO, HFB1 as an album is better than everything that came after the Masterplan. It doesn't have many highs (just like on everything post-Masterplan), but there's nothing on there that's totally shite (unlike on everything post-Masterplan). At it's worst it's fairly mediocre.

I feel Noel as a solo artist is massively underrated by the masses. If some shite like Hymn For The Weekend can be a hit, then why can't Everybody's On The Run, or What A Life!, or Ballad Of The Mighty I be one?

Poll has now been closed. Thanks for voting!

So according to the good good members of L4E, the tracklist of HFB should have been:

1. Everybody's on the Run
2. Dream On
3. If I Had a Gun
4. The Death of You and Me
5. (I Wanna Live in a Dream in My) Record Machine
6. AKA... What a Life!
7. Soldier Boys and Jesus Freaks
8. AKA... Broken Arrow
9. (Stranded On) The Wrong Beach
10. Alone on the Rope

Not bad! Interesting to note that this is the closest to the released album since BHN!

Onto BE!

This post is over. So look past the end.

themasterplanet: A Northern Soul by The Verve! My second favourite album by them. I love the atmosphere of it, it’s very dreamy and melancholic and dark. It holds many memories for me and I think that’s partly responsible for why I love it so much. Sept 6, 2024 18:57:34 GMT -5

AllOrNothing: Up in the Sky sounds like the La's on steroids, especially that Liam Falsetto that I can almost picture Lee Mavers singing with all his big teeth showing Sept 12, 2024 7:52:29 GMT -5

ennex: G'day folks, Sept 21, 2024 4:51:22 GMT -5

Bring It On Dan: I have so much shit on an old hard drive somewhere but I just cannot find it. Nothing 'out there' but probably 200 gigs or so. I can't remember the name of the site that had all the gigs listed and sources for loads of gigs next to it? I remember RKID 003. Sept 24, 2024 17:34:46 GMT -5

mimmihopps: Bring It On Dan, it must be sadsong.net. I don't know if the site still exists. Sept 25, 2024 7:20:44 GMT -5

PollyWantsACracker: Been off the site for over half a decade, good to see it still going strong after all these years. Good to be frickin back again eh. I thought of the place after hearing today from a friend that Oasis is back in business again. Sept 26, 2024 17:07:27 GMT -5

RUBIKON: I'm gonna restart the Oasis MP3 Archive is anyone's intersted in helping? I ran it in 2000 to 2002 and was a great site. Used to use mIRC to get all the boots. I'll build the site, just need links to one drives and files. PM me if you fancy helping out Sept 29, 2024 8:31:27 GMT -5
