Yet to hear SCYHO but look forward to it. Overall lazy as fuck setlist if you ask me. Can't believe he's not binned AYNIL yet! If Noel has the same set list (bar a couple of changes) in Edinburgh next week as he did at Edinburgh Castle last year then I'm done! He's on a mission to lose his fan base if you ask me. Squeezing the life out of every album and single release and rehashing the same old routine live is really getting to me and I grudge paying for it. The passion is going man wtf. The shows next week are sit down acoustic shows, aren't they? And there's literally an album announcement coming in less than 10 hours. He had a 25 minute set and has played two from his last album, one of the biggest hits and a song not played live since 2005. He wasn't gonna exactly play a song nobody has even heard during a 25 minute set at some random Italian festival. I get what you mean but a 5 song set (1 of which is a song he hasn't played) is really hard to judge off. And we now know that the new songs are gonna be played this summer too. Are the shows next week acoustic?

Noel needs to write melodies first,thats how he writes songs. This going into the studio and making it up on the fly isn't him, it's not his style of creating a song and it shows. He can do great dance tunes around melodies he's already written like Setting Sun. ...he wrote Setting Sun how many odd years ago? Here's my issue with the studio writing debate. It presupposes that if Noel shouldn't because he's better at _____. But Noel hasn't been a truly "great" songwriter for ages. Maybe. Just maybe. The issue isn't the method of writing, but the stage of his writing. Like, he could begin with a melody first and you're still gonna get The Mexican or even IIHAG. Is IIHAG, a "proper" melody (probably one of his more beautiful melodies) that much better than the stuff off of WBTM? I don't think so. Heck, IIHAG might be the most forced pastiche thing he's ever written. The issue is that Noel doesn't write songs that 9s or 10s anymore. No matter the method or the genre. He writes 7s and the occasional 8s. What some are saying is that we'd rather hear those 7s and occasinal 8s in a different style. And either people are down for the genre or not, but the quality hasn't fallen off a cliff like some are making it out to be, the style has just shifted. And the quality of what Noel is writing wouldn't change all that much, it'd just fit a style that some prefer more. Writing the music before working out the melody creates different music. His talent appears to be thinking up melodies, not banging around on a bass for hours looking for "something" IMHO.

Fort Knox was great. it's something different from his style, it's groovy, it gets you going, it sounds "new". same with TMWBTM or even The Right Stuff all the other attempts at dance tracks sound like he's trying too hard to do something different and they end up like 80s pastiche. just not my cup of tea he doesn't need to be miserable, broke, or coked up to write good songs. excuse me but I expect much more from NG, like a proper melody I could feel instead of starbucks background music Noel needs to write melodies first,thats how he writes songs. This going into the studio and making it up on the fly isn't him, it's not his style of creating a song and it shows. He can do great dance tunes around melodies he's already written like Setting Sun.

Think this is a left over from the Holmes stuff. Wonder if his record company wanted him to release something to try and sell the upcoming gigs.

Noel dresses like Hugh Grant from About A Boy. Mid life crisis.

Tunes?! Perhaps it's a new EP. Tunes? Noel’s a funny fucker ain’t he? ![???](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/huh.png) Although I do remember taping half of BHN when it was played on radio for the first time. Perhaps he's doing that........nah of course not we'll be lucky if we get more than a snippet of a new one!

Cheers for the tour spoiler in the album thread. That's it. The new song and SCYHO, the rest will be the exact same as the last tour.

Maybe new single drop this Thursday night or Friday. I do love the optimism but It's A Beautiful World had a similar post months before being actually released.... It'll be played live and that's it.
