Corrected. Sorry couldn't help it. It would be interesting to do a poll to see the age of forum members and their opinion on Liam and Noel's new career. Maybe that's where the gap comes from ? And maybe try to put the debate on that thread only, where we can talk, exchange and stuff. Ahhh nice one. Trying to imply it’s just the younger ones who don’t ‘get it’ like you do? What ? why all the negavtivity ? that's not what i was implying at all, i'm just trying to understand. I never said my opinion of the Liam of today was the opinion. People want different things i'm open to that, you are clearly not. thanx for the people who actually replied so far. Corrected. Sorry couldn't help it. It would be interesting to do a poll to see the age of forum members and their opinion on Liam and Noel's new career. Maybe that's where the gap comes from ? And maybe try to put the debate on that thread only, where we can talk, exchange and stuff. yeah, go ahead and do that and stop trolling this thread Thank you thanx for being neutral, moderator

And maybe try to put the debate on that thread only, where we can talk, exchange and stuff. I'm 44. 1st saw Oasis at Glastonbury in 93 (didn't know who they were, was just sat there on the Sunday) My opinion is, and always has been that Oasis was about Liam. Other very notable, successful musicians can and have written good, very good and classic songs. The number of singers who can transform/elevate/improve the quality of any song and convey that emotion so that it connects with the fans are as rare as rocking horse shit. P.S My lad is 19 - he loves Liam and went several times along with a load of his mates on the AYW tour, he/they wouldn't watch Noel if he was doing an exclusive acoustic show in our back garden. Interesting. Why do you think that is ? Is Noel too old in the mind of the younger ones ? Liam maybe seem a bit younger than he actually is to them ? Like a big brother ? When Noel is a dad ?

Post Oasis Noel is middle of the road lift music, Liam's gigs are still rock and roll (as much as anything is these days) I've got six 18-20 year olds working for me in my business, all of them are going to Liam's tour - Noel is never, ever mentioned.

If you'd asked me at 18 if I wanted to go and see a rock n roll show fronted by a 47 year old who was big 20 odd years previously I'd have told you to fuck right off, to put that in perspective I was 18 in 2002 so that would be bands from 1982, that's the likes of kiss, van halen and Judas priest amongst others, no fucking chance would I have been anywhere near that, that's not a dig at Liam's current success, just makes me sad that he's seemingly all there is for a younger age group

Did Shockwave vinyl come out on release day? I think we’re gonna get dripfed with promo etc this week, in the hope that interest in it will grow exponentially.

Kind if did the same with FWIW I suppose. I'm assuming there will be a physical release since there has been artwork for it, but could be wrong.

I’m still not loving the uncool/pool/skewel bit...
But in a way that I can shake my head and smile about.
Can’t take things like this too seriously, in life there’s far more upsetting matters all the time. I’m just happy for Liam.

Once is an good tune sang by a singer better than he has been in a long time. We also love this singer hopefully, otherwise why are we all here. So much pish on this forum by dicks.
I love Liam Gallagher. I also love Noel Gallagher.
Live forever.

Playing this non-stop on my acoustic. It's down to Once and Dead in the Water as THE most beautiful songs to come into the world the last few years. Both make such a raw and authentic emotional connection (to me, at least...and that's all that matters).

That bit isn't great, but the rest of the song is so good I don't think it really matters. The Chinatown shit lyrics standout more cos the rest of the song is pretty naff. Same with any other shit Oasis lyric within a great song, like Supersonic and Some Might Say. The quality of the song trumps the bad line.

I'm 47. I'm a fan since the beginning of Oasis. Liam sung Noel's songs. And now he sings his and others writers songs. He's always been a singer. The voice of Oasis. He has been very very important for the Oasis success. And to be fair a lot of Noel lyrics were nonsense and shallow... but today everyone is SO negative about everything Liam sings. Oasis are the past. Sadly. But they are still making - in my opinion - good music. I'm happy. (but tired about this liam vs. noel and today vs. yesterday) the difference about the lyrics is, that early oasis lyrics like supersonic, never were supposed to be deep or meaningful. liam's lyrics, though, you can tell, are supposed to be exactly that. unfortunately, he's not a good lyricist. some of them are just bad, some are even cringeworthy. even though noel has become a bit of a vagina latelty and i despise some of his live renditions (scyho is awful!!!), i like his music better than what liam does. at least, he's trying to evolve a bit, getting away from the formula he's been using for the last 30 years. liam's music sounds as if he was still stuck in 2001... in the bad way. if at least he was making good music, but he's not. 80% of what he did after oasis split up, is gargabe to me. i would love if it would be different, but it's not, unfortunately. i wish him all the best and success, but as an oasis fan from the beginning, i don't understand how he can be so successful with what he's been doing with beady eye and as a solo artist. Because people like his music. There's nothing to understand.

You can’t understand how he’s been successful? His music has certainly evolved ,yes he’s always going to have the oasis tag and sound because he was the voice but production ,songwriting is quite far away from oasis , you don’t need a drum loop and keyboards to evolve .Liam appeals to the oasis masses and it seems he’s also appealing to a new generation which is quite odd considering age etc but it just goes to show the popularity and longevity of oasis .Noels songwriting is changing but he will head back to his routes eventually there’s no doubt about that

I heard Once on radio Beograd 202 today, it was so fucking epic, so above everything played before and after. And they played new Black Keys and Iggy Pop after Once.
Song is as good as it gets, it's not Champagne Supernova but I don't remember even 46 years old McCartney or Bowie having epic song like this.

For me it's a great song, I haven't stopped listening to it since it released.

What I've noticed it's often a matter of how much emotion you put in listening to music. Some people love to hear whether the chords, melody, production, or lyrics or whatever matches their ideal standards of good and let that lead the way in choosing music. Then there's this section of people who think they know objectively what's good and what's not and they just listen music as technical product and judge it that way. They're usually telling you whether you've got shit taste cos they know better. And then some people have decided something other than 90s Oasis is just rubbish cos they miss the emotions they had when them things happened to during their teenage or 20s. My own group would be the one that just don't give a shit how it's done really since it's all just emotion as well, if I like something then it's my thing and if for some reason I don't like it I'll just click "next" Still I'm not stuck in one kind of music and try to find another great thing at least weekly. I say there's all of us in all 4 camps whether we like or dislike Once. We should just start appreciating equality in this kind of things. ps. Sorry for this long and perhaps rather confusing post. I was in a writing mood.

Since we're talking about the generation gap in relation to Oasis...
I played ONCE tonight and my 18 year old daughter was listening. She said it was a really nice song (she quite likes Oasis) but when we got to the instrumental bit she said "what the hell was all that bit about!?".
I played her the live piano version where Liam's repeatedly singing "Once" and she fell about laughing and said it was ridiculous and embarrassing.
I'm 50 and I'm sorry to say I feel the same way. Beautiful, moving song that has just been ruined by the vocals (or whatever that frog noise is on the studio version) in that instrumental break.
I'm desperately hoping an instrumental mix of the song leaks so I can merge the two and simply mix that nonsense out.
