5. Trying To Find A World That's Been And Gone Pt. 1
6. Easy Now
7. Council Skies
8. There She Blows!
9. Love Is A Rich Man
10. Think Of A Number
Disc 2
1. Don't Stop...
2. We're Gonna Get There In The End
3. Mind Games
4. Pretty Boy (Instrumental)
5. Dead To The World (Instrumental)
6. Council Skies (Instrumental)
7. Think Of A Number (Instrumental)

I quite like that tbh. Fuck all of the experimental/cosmic pop bullshit. Just stick to writing songs like this and stop being a pretentious bell end.

Yeah, his best song in a while with a few touches that feel different from his usual shit and some actual energy across the whole thing. It is okay.

Pretty Boy 6/10
Easy Now (probably 8.5/10 if not even better)
I think this now song has a mint production and got an interesting twist instead of being just another typical Noel/Oasis-singalong number. I might even turn into a high flying bird in the upcoming summer.

Oh look, it's yet another of those endless variations on the If I Had a Gun / The Dying of the Light / Dead in the Water formula!!
Quite digging it, though!

Pretty Boy is okay but Easy Now woeful. I'd just watched Some Might Say from Knebworth before I watched the video though, so basically the equivalent of moving your caravan from the woodlands to Tescos car park. (Un)rock on.

Ride supporting Noel solo, hilarious. Reminds of when Supergrass supported The Hives or someone back in the day.
Last year I bought the deluxe version of Nowhere with the extra tracks and DVD gig, thirty quid on ebay, sealed from musicmagpie, lovely thick booklet inside etc. Didn't open for a month and the fecking CD is all scratched! They don't reply to emails and their number isn't real. Conmen. They seem legit but they'd re-sealed a used CD the wankers! It skips badly on Taste, probably their best tune, just to kill me further. Anyway the live gig is immense and shows they're far too prolific to be supporting a half rate solo act...was what I was trying to say.

I'd guess from that then Andy will be on board for the reunion...I thought he'd burnt his bridges with that post oasis interview he did slaughtering him (dwayne)

The only way to rescue this song (if at all possible) is to dump the horrendous acoustic guitar and the horrible vocals.
Really quite like Easy Now these days though tbh ffs.

Dead to the World released
"It has this film noir vibe. It’s not like anything else I’ve ever done before. It’s very melancholic, but I like that. I’m a Gemini – I’m as up as I am down, & the trick is to meet somewhere in the middle & turn that into music. NG"
