I'm no fanboi, not by any stretch of the imagination. Infact, until recently I'd not listened to a lot of Oasis since Dig Out Your Soul. But, been listening to their later albums (Shoulders onwards) and there's some tunes scattered across them, b-sides included.
Lately I've been loving Keep The Dream Alive & A Bell Will Ring, absolute tunes, I reckon.
Was also listening to The Masterplan last night walking home, forgot how fucking great it actually is.

I love 'Idler's Dream'. It would have been a little masterpiece with Liam on vocals.

in terms of the general public, let's all make believe is right up there. it's in my top 5-6 oasis songs ever and barely anyone outside us fanboi's has heard it.

Thank You for the Good Times
And not exactly underrated but had a walk to Stay Young this mourning and should be reproduced in every TV every day. It would be a much better world.

I just bought Dig out your Soul yesterday, it was like 3 £. Since I bought all the singles back in the day I never bought The Masterplan, but that was on sale as well. Mad fer it! My girlfriend was schocked that I had not bought Dig out.. But now everything is right in the world again.
Got to agree about Let's all make believe, I have played that songs to people that don't care about Oasis at all, and they thought it was a fantastic song. It's really catchy that one.
As for myself, I hope, I think, I know and The Girl in the Dirty Shirt are underrated gems. Hell, Be Here Now is just a monster of an album, those were the days!

Not huge on Dirty Shirt. Don't dislike it but I'm usually quite glad when it's over. Forgot Rockin' Chair which is actually my favourite Oasis song.

My Big Mouth.
My mate was going to walk into to it at his Kickboxing match but was like "What am I gonna do after that? Anything short of killing him will feel like a letdown."
Too true.
Some guy walked onto Supersonic that night and got battered by some little thai kid.
Horrible.

Rockin' Chair, Listen Up, I Hope I Think I Know... I rate them as highly that I can't ever conceive they aren't universally aclaimed. And this part on The Fever: As I saw, on the breeze I can see the sons of those who came before me And it’s got me on my knees What you say, anyway Will not last, it’ll pass, it’ll flash right there before me And it’s got me on my knees I promise I'll steal that melody, it's perfect. I really like The Girl on the Dirty Shirt too. It starts with a gentle vibe and strumming (funky? ) quite different to any other Oasis song, then the bridge is as anthemic as it can get and the chorus is a perfect Beatles rip off, 3 differents parts perfectly fitted. Then the outro, which I really love, Soulasis man.

Yeah You'd have to go all guns blazing and make sure it was finished in the first round or you'd be fucked.

The verse and bridge of Girl In The Dirty Shirt are brilliant, then the chorus just completely sucks cock My ultimate underated Oasis tune would have to be Fade In-Out... WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH Post-SOTSOG it's either Eyeball Tickler or Soldier On (plus the Hindu Times demo and the Richard Fearless version of To Be Where There's Life if we're gonna get fucking poncy)

Bit of trivia for ya - Roll It Over is my dad's favourite Oasis tune. I think he's only heard it about 3 times, mind Songbird is also his and my mum's song My Big Mouth and I Hope I Think I Know are great shouts. Always blown away by them when they come on shuffle or whatever Also, i'm gonna get all controversial now, and say I Got The Fever. Seriously, i really like it The seque into My Sister Lover is amazing, too. The lyrics are shoddy on both, mind. Total b-sides, but not half as bad to me as the majority say RUNNING NOW

songs like listen up, let's all make believe, rockin' chair aren't really underrated imo. anyone who's heard them loves them, it's just they're not that widely heard.
something like i got the fever would for me be a decent shout of a tune that doesn't get the credit it deserves amongst people who've heard it. crap lyrics, but a massive massive tune. shakermaker as well.
