Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds - AKA... What A Life! (Live on Conan O'Brien)

[regularfan0224]

whoa, i saw him perform down in san diego the night before he was on conans show!

[time4aspliff]

He played "If I had a gun" when he performed on David Letterman.

The time is right for another collaboration with Weller. Methinks... Actually, the time is right for another proper Mod revival. Lately, the music and fashion situation been rather stale, to say the least. I'm fed up with the mainstream crap. ( Hello Mr. Beiber )

I saw them at UCLA Royce Hall and a young attractive drunk Mexican bird pinched me bum whilst I was waiting to relieve myself. It didn't suck.

[liamfrederickennis]

Shame about the production, horrible mix, doesn't do this song justice. Obviously an american engineer. No idea. But nevertheless, I'm mad fer it!

[crimsondawn020]

@liamfrederickennis Obviously an American engineer? Come on, dude. Sigh.

[cawthy07]

AMERICA TAKE NOTE... THIS IS WHAT A GOOD MUSICIAN LOOKS LIKE

[xcsemtex]

@cawthy07 why is everyone from england so butthurt about who americans like to listen to. maybe you should start with what your own countrymen are listening to first.

[cawthy07]

@xcsemtex okkkkkkkkkkkkkk

[Bucboy1001]

Yeah, is there a skip in audio or does the drummer mess up? A few extra beats in between at a some times.

[indoshakermaker]

@Bucboy1001 there's an error in the video (skips some beats). I think there other better versions floating around

[Bucboy1001]

@indoshakermaker thanks, just making sure.

[millemont1967]

Did we realy need need a oasis ! ! ! Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds Could Have Done It All With Out The Others Liam A Nothing With out Noel

[Zendrix3]

Conan holding wax...just to feel cool. Wanka

[mssomna]

Dont compare Beady Eyes to this...there is no comparison...loved this performance...slightly different from the album version but fantastic just the same

[20ndawg]

man even tho he kinda looks like a muppet/ chicken or some type of bird, he sure can sing!

[StellaArcher]

@SliderOutWide I have videos on my channel of both Beady Eye and Noel Gallaghers HFB. And Oasis. So look better before you want to write me of as a Liam-fan/Noel-hater.

He should throw it out because it's hard to replicate live, like you say yourselve. I've seen him a couple of weeks ago and he's just not doing the song justice. Just like Beady Eye threw Wind Up Dream out and should also throw For Anyone out. He sang fine on The Beat Goes On when I saw him.

[mekmedful]

what a drummer isnt there mistakes in rhtym ??????

[Dtrax2]

@mekmedful Rhythm*

[leomadda1]

Te quedaba demasiado bien tocar en Oasis... esto es basura en comparación

[salmonbomb]

his voice sounds shot.

[TheSongbirds1]

Try this one and see the difference: watch?v=_yBsYjkJIWg&feature=re­lated

[BrunoZibordi33]

Noel could afford a better drummer... That bloke really got problems with his tempo.

[liveslowlivesimple]

sounds weak for some reason. not a good live song

[therichardchannel]

What a life always sound bad live. He should have played If I Had a Gun

[CodyT3212]

He should have played Everybody's On The Run. Should be the next single as well.

[blasphemer1981]

@CodyT3212 Totally agree. That is such a great tune!

[Gumbo72203]

omg i think this kills the original. I was so disappointed when I heard the original after seeing this last night, because the studio doesn't have that fucking SOAKED overdrive sound that was coming.... seriously, that was probably the best live-on-tv experience I'll ever have in my life. The overdrive on his guitar was just so.... UGH, fucking PERFECT. It was locked in. SO GOOD.

[rswc55]

horrible mixing.  just horrible. almost ruined a great song.

[unionjacksupernova]

Drummer sucks real bad.

[mariiwhat]

this is quite a lame version. the recorded version is great and I've seen him live and it was mega! can't imagine why this sounded so bland. doesn't matter! It's Noelie!!

[ftechone]

Conan talking guitars @ the end w/ the greatest songwriter of my generation......classic!

[TheHearsz]

Noel always said that this song would be the hardest to transfer into the live performance. People are right when they say it is quite slow but I've seen other live versions of this tune where he nails both the vocals and the music, not sure why it's so different with this performance..

[fxsaberboy]

He pulled a Liam snarl at 3:13!

[BrunoZibordi33]

look, it's bonzo!! =D

[icantfindb]

It's true, this single just does not work live. It's too bad they chose this one.

[StellaArcher]

shame they made this a single as it will have to leave the setlist cause noel simply can't pull it of, terrible vocals, especially the falsetto part.. He has to realise himself it's awfull?

[madferit84]

yes.. very bad performance, too slow, but the problem is its not a great song, i have been twice to his live performance, on this song crowd stands frozen, it doesnt work. Can happen to God as well.

[igorvmeyer]

one of the worst performances i've seen from him ever.

[igorvmeyer]

I'm a HUGE noel g.'s fan, but I have to admit this is just plain awful. way too slow.

[Glenfenton]

This song doesn't cover itself in glory when it's played live..Probably the only one that can't pulled off live!

[RNB828]

Doesn't do them justice...

[eduardofdoria]

Awful sounding. Noels guitar? There is not. Low bass and keyboard (comparing to other performances of this song). And the drummer.....

[gemarcher83]

@eduardofdoria Who cares? yankees are stupid,that's not a real problem!

[stupidnicks]

any interviews?

[icebreath22g4]

@stupidnicks Nope. Only performance.

[ourkid94]

horrible vocals

[gemarcher83]

@ourkid94 He's not Liam Gallagher. He's GOD.

[OasisDNA]

3:13 Classic....God himself does really have a sense of humor.

[dr05guitar]

@OasisDNA  gotta love Noel :)

[lolisdegallagher]

¡Mi favorita!
