Yep

True, but I think George’s guitar work goes some way towards redeeming Octopus’s Garden.

What’s The Story (Morning Glory)? - ‘Hey Now!’

I realise that WTSMG as a ‘great album’ might be a controversial shout but if you can make that leap, Hey Now is a turgid dirge slap bang in the middle of one of the best albums of all time. It’s made all the more egregious by the quality of the B-Sides that Oasis were releasing at the time. Cover versions aside, every single B-Side they released on that cycle is better than Hey Now. Inexplicable.

I don’t even remember that being on the album!

As you say, might be more appropriate to put WTSMG in the terrible albums with one great song category.

#126

forgot this song existed but just put it on and quite like it. getting quite nostalgic.

#127

Wait, what counts as the one great song on there? If it’s not Morning Glory itself then this is all bullshit.

Um, I still quite like Some Might Say.

I mean you said ‘Great Song’. I feel like if we were to put up a list of ‘great songs’ by Oasis I’d expect stuff like Acquiesce, Talk Tonight, Morning Glory, Live Forever etc. but while I can get a bit of love for Some Might Say I really think it’s a stretch to put it in that category.

There’s no Beatles album without at least one absolute duffer. That’s why I find it funny they’re all reviewed across the board as perfect 10s by critics. They can still be a brilliant band and not be flawless.

I prefer Some Might Say to all of those. In fact, the only Oasis songs I’d really ever put on are SMS and Rock n Roll star. Maybe Supersonic.

Talk Tonight isn’t very good at all - are you sure?

#136

I recall Talk Tonight being a really nice little b-side.

#137

Glad someone’s said it.

#138

Not “great” though? :slight_smile:

#139

I mean I dunno. I probably wouldn’t listen to any Oasis song now as I played the ones I loved so much back in the day but when I was fan it was in my top 10 for sure I think.

Yep, same goes for me, really. If you’d asked me 24 years ago, I’d have been banging on about Whatever being great as well.
