Oasis - Songbird (Demo)

[MegaBanana51]

I FUCKIN' LOVE THE GUITAR SOLO!

[santas20]

one of the few demos that is better than the original song

[mmistry5]

I guess u can say this is Beady Eyes version of the song, b4 noel got his hands on it

[FreezerBurn1704]

@mmistry5 Nope, this is actually Noel's production. Noel said Liam asked him to take everything out and just leave the acoustic guitar, and that was the final version.

[2nile2]

this is great! :D

[BohemianArcade]

On reflection I think I prefer the album version :) don't get me wrong, I really like this version too, I just think the album version is so perfectly understated, it really captures Liam's feelings. I'm going to get thumbs down for this I know, but that's just my opinion! 

[jimmyzgames]

better!!!!!!!! :D

[avsky123]

Jesus Christ! They managed to rip-off two beatles songs in just one. The guitar is definitely I should have known better, and the bass sounds like the one in Rain; almost identical, except a slight key change. lol oh well, as Picasso said, "good artists borrow, great artists steal".

[fcionsz]

kto, do cholery, głosuje tu na NIE?

who the hell rates this song RED?!

[MLR13]

it's just like 'i should have known better'. great tune!

[11mikaela1]

great version - nice and raw

[Phyllocran]

it has got everything i miss in the album version - the long intro, the long ending, the harmonica...

[MultiLiamryan]

@Phyllocran  that harmonica intro id from the beatles song 'i should have known better' ;)

[BodaciousWickerman]

Live performance not a demo, either way, amazing!!!

[Christaphunk92]

Im pretty sure this is a live performance, not a demo

[bonoman1982]

WOW!!! Should have been on the album as a hidden track. Thats amazing. Not dissing the album version though,its still class.

[LowleyUK]

The album version is about a million times better, this sounds muddled and confused and the guitars drown out the melody. I guess Oasis agree.

[Kozaack]

@LowleyUK I'm not from Oasis, but I do agree with you.

[TheChum1981]

cejudo

[louismccourt]

whatever liam touches turns to gold

[birdy47]

@Gyphia I think Taxman also

[oldmangimpsuit]

the album version is shit compared to this!! Why didnt they release this one??

[CaptainRockNRoll]

The harmonica sounds alot like "I Should've Known Better" by the Beatles. But, yes, I think this version is better than the album version too.

[cross741852]

amo el solo de guitarra en el final

[davekm43]

Love the Album version of this but this is much better, why was this not released as the single? The Baseline & Guitar reminds me of The Beatles - Rain!!!

[Derekgarlandmusic]

Great version... anytime I pick up a guitar I end up playing this song! ( Most likely.. thats because their the only chords I can play ha... )

[LtoTheSLukas]

geeeeeeeenious !

[TianCrash]

IsGreat, Louder than the final version, but anyway i think, boths versions are good...

[offspring13691369]

wow the beggining just like I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER - the beatles. exactly the same, check it

[LtoTheSLukas]

@offspring13691369 Oh man :D. Oasis copying so much, you wont believe it :D. Listen to Waiting for the Rapture and listen to "five to one" by the doors :D for example. or listen to put yer money wheres yer mouth is and roadhouse blues by the doors, too Oooor listen to cigarettes and alcohol:D. And so on :D.

[dave790]

@LtoTheSLukas

[carlitox3956]

es increible lo que se puede hacer con dos acordes oasis es la mejor banda desde nirvana !!

[marky918]

the bass line has been stolen from the rain and the harmonica/intro bit sounds too much like i should have known better

[27Flox]

te AMO LIAM LO MAS BELLO K VIIII X DEOOSSS¡¡

[jonniemoz]

Where Can I find this version?

[TheRoseMarch]

Thank God we have them both (album and this)

[bobbybansal]

this is better than the album version.....a lot better....amazing stuff :)

[PedrosProductions]

this sounds really clustered tbh and the bassline is from rain not tommorow never knows..

[ther901]

fookin' love the bass!

[aeroalien]

Sounds so good...as the other version

[MrXxiii]

wow.this is a lot better than the original.

[jmoss69]

this song reminds me of someone... i think she might even know who she is

[posthumous5]

Bass line is straight off "tomorrow never knows" which doesn't work well for this anyway cos it's too busy for the song.

[jcollins32]

The start: iiiiii shoulda know better with a girl like you! ha

[jigglypuff1994]

they need a new masterplan for 2000-2008, and have this on there haha

[manualfie112]

it sounds a bit like and your bird can sing by the beatles

[TheTala44]

this is sooooo much better than the original.......i didnt think that would be possible!!!!

[pcmiddleton123]

in places the bass line sounds a bit like the beatles taxman

[Oasisaremylife1]

i think this is slightly better thn the acoustic one..

[gosecamaleon]

no queda caorde a la letra, ni la bateria se adopta a la cancion, no me gusto, pero como rareza esta buena

[JTlat]

Some parts a bit like I am the resurrection ...

[Slackerhouse]

that bassline was used in (Probably) All In The Mind

[tomelaide]

at the start i was expecting to hear, i shouldve known better with a girl like you..

[TheWallOfSound1990]

Ha ha

[bentheled]

Let the rain come as they run and hide their head.......

[taekneek]

yea the problem with this demo is that the instruments drown out Liam

[w390024]

Well it is a demo, a finished song would be mixed better.

[ukhouseRJ]

yes really good but i bet this was on the album,, and than the acoustic was then realeas, than the acoustic will be better,,, so they are both really good

[callmegene]

i do like this version more! it sounds way better 2 me.

[Waitforme88]

de ???

[MissBFan1]

this is really good!" but i like the album version, more simple

[PICHICHI90]

sounds like and you bird can sing mixed with i should have know better

[Beatles39]

spot on

[09mrPNJ]

this is good why wasn't this realised the whole is to clean in sound to me. don't get wrong i like the album but the demos seem to make the songs really come to life.

[noelwannabe]

i should have known better

ive always thought that this is the closest oasis ever came to sounding like the beatles any one agree also go let it out

[andyrangersoasis]

bloody hell this is brilliant

[iShTaRaHiMsA]

@andyrangersoasis Bloody

[sometry]

mejor k la original

[jimmykinski]

on my life this sounds better than the single version?

[JPChabert]

Yes. It does.

[conombnm]

I didn't know liam could play the guitar

[gabittooasiis]

he also knows how to play keyboards

[zimmidd]

great!!!

[helterskelter1980]

Love this version. Sounds like it could fit on Don't Believe The Truth hadn't it been previously released... B)

[viomartyr]

sounds like I Should Have Known Better...

[slider41]

kind of does viomartyr at least the harmoinica work in the beginning mirrors lennon's at lteast a bit

[kapnzach]

I think it's supposed to lol. The bassline is like one of Macca's as well. I'm thinking of Taxman...

[MaDFuRiT86]

it is

[xiwi01]

it's better the album's version..

[tkslan00]

like the album version better. Is that a harmonica I hear?; I don't like it.

[desasterz]

better than the album vertion

[deebabygirl369]

nope shit really is bad

ruined noels chillin in the park

[supersonicspringy]

ace

[psj3809]

Superb version, really adds something different. Had this version played at my wedding, everyone was going mental to it. Superb song

[k3826m]

[Billster3345]

[supersonicspringy]

[grundy901]

i prefer this one it sounds like something out of a hard days nite top or what

[julianbarry]

Good version, liams voice is better in the latest version though in my opinion

[PerhapsMaybe]

So much better than the album version, they should've kept it like this.

[mutttha]

very nice version the harmonica intrpois identical i should have known better by the beatles

[JeyPcrazy]

*__*

[wasp714]

sooo awesome...=)

[teddyboysmith2]

[anwiyayoukhanna]

The jacket Liam wears in the video looks like something Bowie might have worn.

Does anyone know where you can find this demos? Is there a good bootleg CD?

[smcauley600]

b side to the song bird single

[yenrald]

the intro of demo version was just like i should have know you better by the beatles

[JosephGallagher]

The one in the album is more to the lyrics, but this one kicks-ass!!

[lsdarcy]

the lyrics are exactly the same mate.

[JosephGallagher]

I maeant that the album version (Sort of acoustic) goes more accordingly to the lyrics. It keeps the meaning/feeling of them

[dannytanti7]

only got it on the dvd version anyone know where i can download this?

[JosephGallagher]

Get a YouTube-MP3 converter, they're everywhere. I use DVDsoft's

[bigdaveupload1980]

[JosephGallagher]

That is the page itself, DVDsoft dot blah blah blah
