When held up against the first two Oasis definitely fell with the third album. In comparison its lyrically uninspired in places I feel and even Noel has described it as a "swindle" on many occasions, clearly unhappy with what it became which was more than likely the result of a band on a constant high from the success of the first two records and of course consistently smashed off their tits. The fact Noel dished out instructions to remain completely sober throughout the recording of the next one could have even been as a direct result of Be Here Now.

However, I also think its a little harder and maybe even a little edgier in places, especially when compared to Morning Glory and I actually quite like it. I really dig Dont Go Away, Magic Pie, I Hope I Think I Know etc.
