25. IDLER'S DREAM
(2002, B-side)

This was the B-side to the single Hindu Times. It is by far one of the best pieces of music Noel has ever written, and it's too good to be a b-side.

24. THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING IDLE
(2005, Don't Believe The Truth)

This is possibly Noel's funniest song, and his voice hasn't sounded any better than this. A song about being lazy. Everybody can relate. One of the band's biggest hits.

I'd assume you will post the most obvious ones. That's not a criticism, I just think Oasis have always had particular stand out tracks that most fans gravitate towards. I know there would be few surprises if I made my list.

We'll see.

Not a massive fan of Oasis, perhaps I burnt myself out on them because I listened to them a fair bit when I was a young Manky. Liam Gallacher's 'sheeeiiiineee' is ever negatively enforced in my mind from just hearing him too much.

Best tracks in my opinion are

1. Stand By Me
2. Half the World Away
3. Little by Little

I like the more stripped back tracks where there's less bravado and more emotion, but I now the majority of Oasis fans will gravitate towards What's the Story and Slide Away probably. I quite like the tracks that take Liam out of the picture too.

23. DON'T GO AWAY
(1997, Be Here Now)

In the midst of the loud and brash track list of Oasis's over the top 1997 release, came this breath-taking, heart-wrenching rocker about losing a loved one. Noel wrote the song as a way to console band member Bonehead when his mother passed away.

22. THE SHOCK OF THE LIGHTNING/I'M OUTTA TIME
(2008, Dig Out Your Soul)


The first single from Oasis's final album before breaking up in 2009, The Shock Of The Lightning was a return to form. A loud, fast, and aggressive rock tune that Noel wrote in less than an hour during the recording sessions. Definitely one of the band's most underrated songs. That is tied with another track from the album, I'm Outta Time. Liam has always been an open admirer and huge fan of John Lennon. Not only did he write this song in the vein of In My Life, as well as emulate the late Beatle's vocal style, but he also includes a sound bite from Lennon's final interview before his untimely death near the end of the song.
