Going from that May clip of Noel, it sounds more like the re-union is more something to give him a break from writing and recording than something for him to write the most anticipated rock album of the decade around. I think he just wants to bag the cash, have a year of huge stadium gigs to boost his confidence, mend some family ties, and then get back to his own stuff when he's refreshed and hopefully inspired again. And I say good luck to him. Fair enough, but let's be realistic : after a long wished-for reunion finally happens, with 1,5 million people applying for tickets, who will be excited to learn Noel's recording a new solo album in 2026? The reaction to it might be very underwhelming, everyone will be asking for new Oasis music, or another Oasis tour, not a NGHFB album & tour. |

There were 1.7 million tickets available. 14 million applying across the 3 websites is the number cited at the moment. |

I think this is the most credible scenario, but I wouldn't rule an Oasis album out completely He's gotta feel he has a good one in him and want the challenge, which I'm still not sure about, but if this gives him the right vibes why not |

And I say good luck to him. I didn't think of it like that, plus there's the pressure and scrutiny of delivering an Oasis album that he might not necessarily want. Just remember the attention Don't Stop got when it was released during lockdown four years ago. As mediocre a tune as Noel has written in Oasis, yet it received a fair bit of press. The fact he had b-sides in High Flying Birds that were a million times better is neither here nor there, he slapped the Oasis name on a throwaway tune and that automatically gave it attention. |

If the songs still works for him, it might give him the confidence to pursue an Oasis album. |

Not your suggestion, but what your suggestion means. Any time Liam or a fan put down a HFBs song, I always said to myself, no way Liam doesn't like the song, he's just mad because he wants to be singing it. And the fans, I always felt that if the band didn't break up, those songs would have been Oasis songs. Maybe not WBTM, but maybe, who knows how much Noel truly wrote in the studio. And yes, the songs could easily have been arranged differently, or played at a faster tempo etc if they were Oasis songs, but people act like Noel lost his writing touch and the reality is we're all now begging for a new Noel written Oasis album, so what is it? Has he lost it, or were people just mad that they weren't Oasis songs? Sorry underneaththesky if that sounds like it was pointed at you, it's not. I actually agree with you. If he didn't have things pre-recorded, he certainly had them prewritten. If we are to get new Oasis music. |

It’s weird because Liams solo gigs had become very popular but who would get excited about his gigs if he announced them if people had just been watching oasis a few months earlier.
Noels already said he has a rock album up his sleeve and always has songs wrote. He probably wouldn’t even have to be in same studio as liam just send liam and his team the songs and get liam to do his vocals.
All it needs is a couple of decent singles and it will sell massive.
Noel will have the comeback single ready no doubt about it

My theory is he knew about the reunion long ago and wrote the record already. Someone on here who claimed to be in the know suggested the divorce actually got in the way of the reunion which was supposed to happen this year. Who knows if that's true or not but food for though. So 2024 reunion got put on the back burner while he dealt with divorce. Noel said himself he wrote a "stadium rock album" directly after finishing Council Skies. That was the Oasis album imo but guess time will tell. |

So long as every single song is written by Noel. All of them. A maximum of 2 songs sung by him too and the album will be good. NGHFB albums are good but don't have the virality that a Liam album has. And Liam's albums bounce out the speakers but don't have the tunes.
Oasis are essentially a supergroup who become greater than the sum of their parts, when done properly.

Don't think it's anyone in the know, there's news articles that quote Liam saying he received a big offer for the reunion, talked to Noel's management and they declined. The divorce was put forth by Liam as the reason, which is plausible, but I don't think that's insider information |

If Noel has kept songs throughout the years for an Oasis reunion, then they must be pretty good if he could use songs like Record Machine, Lock All The Doors, Come On Outside, We're Gonna Get There In The End etc as NGHFB tracks

If Noel and Liam are to make a new album, you’d think it would be out by early summer 2025. They don’t want to step on the toes of the Morning Glory 30th anniversary reissue that is 99.999% gonna happen come October of 2025. What will be on it? Who knows. They certainly got us fans to keep buying the 2014 remasters over and over and over again.

Oh, and a special extra disc of 30 snippets of songs and ideas Noel worked on at home and recorded to his personal walkmans in 94/95. All incoming! |

I mean Noel is pretty prolific as a writer as long as he’s not strung out or doing too many drugs right. Most writers don’t share with the world half of what they write so I absolutely do not believe he’s not sitting on 10 rockers that are just waiting for Liam. If we get something akin quality wise to Dig out your soul I’d be thrilled.
