Lyrically Noel is going more and more surreal every record which is kinda weird. If you didn't notice that let me sum up some of the latest characters of his songs:

-Riverman
-Angel that says give me your soul and i'll be on my way
-The girl with a star shaped tambourine that's standing lost and lonely on a shore
-The girl with fucking x ray eyes (superhero moment)
-The man that walks the earth alone
-The man who built the moon that arrives on a knackered horse

Where is that coming from? Books, dreams ?Who are those guys ?

"...the man who built the moon, / He arrived on a knackered horse" bears a resemblance to Paul Weller's "He's the one knight / On a knackered stallion," from 'He's the Keeper', his tribute to Ronnie Lane. Noel might have decided to finish off this bit about "the man who built the moon" (I'm guessing he had the title first and wrote the rest of the song around it) by borrowing a line off one of his old songwriter pals. I'm sure it wouldn't be the first time...

I'm guessing "Cecilia" from 'A Simple Game of Genius' was named thusly so that she rhymed with "I will be with yer."

That love is all and love is everyone: it is knowing.

I've always found that Cecilia thing cringeworthy.

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

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
