Hey You - Noel Gallagher

[felllovewithpiano]

Well it sounds rather like Liam than Noel..

[AxeHomeless]

Great Song, no Noel on vocals.

[AxeHomeless]

Great Song, no Noel on vocals.

[FretLegendSmithy]

you can hear the Smiths and the Stone Roses on this. You can tell he's using what was influencing him at the time. And in the late 80's, those were the bands that Noel was interested in. Class tune though.

[celt67]

The guitar is a bit like 'Perfect Skin' by Lloyd Cole And The Commotions.

[oocksne]

anyone knows what song is "arkayla" from noel?

[shomu06]

this sounds similar to won't get fooled again doesn't it??

[pegger18636]

forgot about this one and was expecting "hey you, out there on your own sitting naked by the phone can you feel me?" etc. lol, that would'a been pretty weird.

[jonsey98]

I love this song. Does anyone know the chords to this? If so reply to me.  Would be much appreciated

[kinio73]

this song is so syd barrett

[Giuli15oasis]

Being a big fan of Noel, I must admit I'd never listened to this demo before...and it's amazing...each day I am more convinced that he's divine

[paranoid788]

wow does anyone have the chords? if you do send me them! lol great song

[kingofbling2]

He sounds like he sing baritone here but in ever other song he sings sounds like he sings tenor. compare looking back in anger with this. Have to say though his singing has improved by alot though.

[sullyosul]

he just singing out of the top of his head then maybe put it down as up in the sky! & wrote proper lyrics over that demo!!

[danpagnesupernova]

Sounds like an early version of "Up in the sky"

[zebbedi]

The only similarity between this and "up in the sky" is the lyric "hey you".

[jemimag3]

ahh so cute nice xjem

[rafaelmadferit]

(sorry)

*before he came into Oasis!

[rafaelmadferit]

Noel sounded a lot like The La's (and maybe The Smiths and The Jam) before he c

[suim2007]

Aww i thought it was noel covering the floyd song.

[Randal2k1]

this has the same chords as setting sun.

[Garethfeb16]

its always great to hear someone finding there way in music! it just goes to show that everyone (with a bit of luck) can do it!!!

[JoeyTheFatKid]

anyone can learn the guitar but not anyone can do what noel does, he is the greatest songwriter of our generation. how many noel's are there?

[GallagherisGod77]

@JoeyTheFatKid Just the One.

[zebbedi]

Helps if your as talented as Noel at songwriting. (which hardly anyone is) You can tell by this early piece that his priority is melody, the foundation of all good songwriting. Most people nowadays rely on equipment to make interesting sounds for them.

[harddaysnight12345]

whats been happin is better

[tiagodamasceno]

fail

[mattax12]

btw at 0:21 its a pic of Liam not Noel ...

[jordanbeckham723]

no, its noel. just very liam looking

[mattax12]

hm may be ... really cant decide :D

[DefinitelyMaybe80]

Its defo Noel, but I can defo see the likeness to liam in that pic.

[niloxfreak]

Its probably a Pre-Oasis track of noel:). great to hear

[bustafool1]

its def him, no doubt

[rockthecasbah92]

thats not noel yer bunch of idiots

[lordelan]

It is...!

[lordelan]

every oasis FAN knows this demo tape man...

[jimy84]

it's noel, 100% ! but he is waaaay better now! btw can't wait for his solo album! do you think he'll ever make it ?

[Praktical]

No.

[bartsimpsoninthesky]

"hey you, up in the sky, learning to" ...... uh my fault :-) its a great song!! and i believe you that its noel.

[PerhapsMaybe]

It's Noel.

His voice is much better now.

[endofthetable]

I love music, I love many bands, I listen to a ridiculous number of bands. Oasis make me happier than them all. They are special. In the traditional sense. They are great. Thank you Noel. I am a happy man generally. You make me happier.

[mikelgallagher]

isnt noel

[flagga]

Yeah this is Noel, this tape was sold at an auction a couple of years back. He recorded it in 87/88 i think on a dictophone.

[celt67]

The guitar is very 'Lloyd Cole & The Commotions' influenced.

[paamcaat]

Love the pictures, voice is not Noel Gallagher.

[celt67]

yes it is.

[paamcaat]

Proof?

[celt67]

It's his fucking voice...and its from his demo tape,which I've had a copy of for more than a decade..what more do you want ? Fingerprints ?

It's him.

[LeRock0]

It is definetely noel. He was probably 17-19 years old when he wrote and sang this. His voice has changed, but its pretty good here as well. this is no doubt Noel.

[paamcaat]

Fingerprints would be nice...no just kidding of course I didn't take into account the age of the recording, sorry. :)

[alexhebblethwaite]

maximo park

[PDhfc]

defo noel any cunt who sed it isnt needs theyre hearing checked

[abbielovesoasis]

u can download thm of ths web site igot em all an theres loads others like heathen demos an unrelesed stuff

[Angel2006Oasis]

NOEL RULES

[Wellmeetagain]

This is noel. The tape was bought by the 'oasis fan community'. Various message boards clubbed together, took donations, successfully bought the tape and uploaded the songs. It was 2006 i think, maybe early 2007

[NayrNitsuj]

The tape you are talking about was sold for over a million pounds I believe a few years back. I wish the cunt that bought it would ither give it back to Noel or let the rest of the world fucking have a listen...

[Angel2006Oasis]

oasis live4everrrrrrrrrrr

[dazmanforty]

this is defo noel!

[LeRock0]

Sounds great! brilliant song, he should make it a B side but maybe improve the recording quality.

Brilliant song from Noel tho, LEGEND!

[hobbolufc]

[nezbold]

[xxthenextnoelxx]

[LennonLove]

[Danny2604]

can't believe people actually think that's noel !? haha.

[ChezzaProductions]

Because It Is!!!!

[jembodawg]

it's Noel, there was coverage on NME and Record Collector.

NME - nme [dot] com/news/89.htm

[frankgallagher]

loise must die: this is noel, of course. the voice is different because is about 20 years ago!

[topstix]

its defo noel....jst cos it doesnt sound like him dusnt mean its not him! ave u heard i will show you by oasis?!

[aeroponic]

ignore the thing about the date - I thought it said 1998 not 1988. It doesn't sound like Noel to me though.

[witham06]

might sound different... but it is 100% defo noel ya can tell

[aeroponic]

Is it bollocks Noel, or anything to do with Oasis for that matter. Nice try though, after god knows how long of bumming Noel's songwriting you've managed to come up with something that sounds remotely like him, maybe pre-definitley maybe. And before you try to defend it, in 1998 Oasis were massive, and rich, rich enough to produce demo's that don't sound like they were recorded on a pc with a cheap guitar and a desktop mic, ta.

[lawtontom]

the lyrics are as fantastic as ever noel is a lyrical genius. voice is crap but that comes with age. check out dont look back in anger live in the last 2 years and you'll see what i mean

[jonnytheoasisfan]

I Like it!.. it's not Oasis but I Like it

[freezemustang]

I got these demos aswell and i think their are awsome even if they will never be number 1 songs its part of the make up of what the man is today and a valued part of my collection

[lotrluver25]

thanks so much for posting--i love noel gallagher/oasis' music!

[ChezzaProductions]

Its before oasis man! sop its noels and its a demo tape. You ever heard a demo ffs it sounds different

[LoiseMustDie]

I really don't think here is Noel's voice man! I don't think it's Liam's too! Anyway, not so bad.

[havinglostwickets]

definitely a grower

[kyemoloney]

said the actress to the bishop

[theweathersfine]

It's awesome. Thanks very much!  Rock on!!!

[ChezzaProductions]

Well, what does everyone think?
