Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds - Let The Lord Shine A Light On Me

[mnosam]

Liam Gallagher disliked this on 9 separate accounts...

[ROCKSOLID19]

The best and finest band member/leader turned solo artist Britain produced since Sting.

[brieflycake]

@ROCKSOLID19 Oh hello Rocksolid, fancy meeting you here :)

[jojo99914]

Well sure, if they were still united oasis would not be bad, but ... but that's okay

[cgKIRSCHf]

@frost slag.

[FrostByte112]

Noel Gallagher was already a legend in Oasis. Now he will make even more amazing music on his own path.

If you ask me: it's a good thing Noel left oasis. He doesn't have the burden of Oasis anymore: he's got his own way to go instead of having to worry day in day out about other members of the group wanting to re-live the 90's...

As much as I love oasis(and I really do...) near the end I was like: this is great... But it's not the 90'. HFB is a new chapter worthy of this day and age.

[rtori81]

Great song but the woman's voice really threw me off (would've been way better if that part was a lead guitar solo) still, gotta love the chief.

[OneRandomVictory]

epic



[aidanhogey]

wow...thats all i can say...just wow

[JoeyDPro2009]

i saw him live in sheffield last night, on my birthday and he was as godlike as ever, thank you very much noel, you sir are my idol!

[jhwoasis93]

Brilliant song. If you put together an album of Noel's best B-sides including ones from the Oasis days it would be one of the best albums ever made.

[DraconianoFull]

Fuckin' Brilliant !

[Fsedgwickdays]

He's so cute in a rebel way

[donoctavio7]

what a beautiful masterpiece!

[MrCjohnk]

AKA....What a legend !

[wifeofanirishman]

Amazing....anyone who rips on him needs only to listen this as being a "b-side" Love this and the whole album!

[u2feeder]

How can Noel shine a light on himself?

[jenpinder1]

OMG this song is amazing, I first watched it in an aircraft flying over africa. Then again in afrika. This is by far the best song noel has done. Its like a 21st century masterplan, Let us all feel greatful for the comfortable life we lead.

[danielh645]

seriously... id prefer this over sex O__o

[bringmepeterpanuk]

Noel said he had about 38 songs written for High Flying Birds... really should have been a triple album :/

[6265ash]

Noel Gallagher king of the b sides

[supersonicmann]

I like the tracks dreamy vibe reminiscent of Zero 7. I think it also shows Noel steering away from the ‘Oasis sound’, once again, which can only be a healthy progression. However, I think Noel should've thought harder about the tracks direction instead of resorting to (for a section) totally ripping off what makes "The Great Gig In The Sky" such an awesome and distinctive track - Clare Torry's vocals. Shame on you Mr. Gallagher.

Ripe for a good remix or two.

[celt67]

@supersonicmann You say 'steering away from the Oasis sound'...I agree with the woman in the chorus instead of guitar solos...but I can also imagine this being on 'Standing On The Shoulders Of Giants'. It would have fitted right in with Gas Panic and Who Feels Love.

[Cragrok]

@1THETRUTH10

either way, I'm listening.

[stormz566]

goosebumps....



[berrygirl964]

@stormz566 Ditto that! This song gives my goosebumps goosebumps. :))

[cmf1986]

Have inserted this into my iPod, where ''I Wanna Live in a Dream (in my record machine)'' was. Noel, again shows why he should be banned from picking track lists!!!! What a tune - shades of The Great Gig in the Sky.

[1THETRUTH10]

@cmf1986Yea....I think noel well knew he was ripping off pink floyd...lol :) Good tune though...but I like record machine. This is no masterplan. Freaky Teeth should have made the album.

[JohnLlovera]

@1THETRUTH10 lol dont worry about freaky teeth in this album, noelie said its in the second one and also said the second one was the most heavy tuned in album he has ever worked on!!! We will have great music this year as well as last

[Cragrok]

Regards the gods debate. You and everyone one else on this entropic rock are gods, we were made in gods form that makes us all gods if you can read between the obvious lines. The bible is full of sense especially if your a songwriter/dreamer type and Noel has certainly written a piece here that will resonate to a massive audience so fair shout to him... He is a musically talented god but I'm a filmmaking god and your all some kind of gods so quit babbling and remember god rules so make them for

[1THETRUTH10]

@Cragrok Im on side with the old noel "faith in any god will bery us all"......Noel is becoming too lovey....I want the misrable bastard cynic Noel back :(

[Rab90watp]

Ride the Tiger!

[PeterReidy7]

this should have been on the album instead of stop the clocks

[xXSabres91Xx]

@PeterReidy7 This is on the Deluxe album edition, also Stop the Clocks is an AMAZING song...

[NSAHAI1]

noel's b sides > u2's singles!!

[chadvipe2]

I think the Lord shined a light on this SONG!

[lividpigs]

This is powerfull!



[HFBirds]

How!! no no.. Why this song is b-side??!!

[bijibadness]

this is goddamned amazing.

[marlboro82ost]

@Muyrdinauia ....that's ...'A Simple Game of Genius' :-)

[1203luckystarx]

In my opinion Noel's best song....love, love, love it!!!!!!!

[bichi8888]

AKA...what a b-side

[kayn31]

this song is so fucking amazing, i honestly cannot believe how good it is

[forestreds83]

this and" the good rebel" should have been on the album

[BozSabeti]

@forestreds83 Both tracks are part of the 'deluxe' edition. And available to download individually.

[kevinhaast]

Thumbs up if you think this song's basic structure sounds just like Gas Panic! (SOTSOG album)

[hoofhearted1212]

@Muyrdinauia That's all part of the masterplan!!!

[NSAHAI1]

noel's b sides are better than u2's singles!!

[Shady1011000]

Cannot wait to see him live!

[tippqq]

If this is the quality we can expect from Noel all the time, I am delighted that Oasis split up. I have loved every song I've heard from the album thus far.

[oasisoasis21]

Sounds like Roll it Over mixed with Gas panic, this was clearly written during the sotsog era

[Showtimeblogs]

@Muyrdinauia

Hey Now, Who Feels Love? She IS Love. She's my Wonderwall. She's my Magic Pie, D'Ya Know What I Mean? I Stay Young going on Bonehead's Holiday cause we're Born on a different cloud but not Up In The Sky, we're Underneath The Sky.

[0075SHUBHAM]

Awesomeee

[Kennerad0]

I should also add, its got a bit of One Way Road in there as well, if you haven't heard that one - its another top b-side from the Giants sessions (I think?)

[Kennerad0]

aside from the bass line being the same as Gas Panic, this is a brilliant tune. A-Side quality B-Sides from Noelly G.

[celt67]

Look for his new B-side 'I'd Pick You Everytime'. It's fucking amazing as well.

[danfromuk]

Cannot believe this is a B side!

[Ringadoon]

WOW !

[melg14]

Good songs needs to be hard to find.

[PaoloMix09]

Wow I just head this, GOLD!

[franksauzee4]

simply brilliant.

[ANewRockLife]

Fucking amazing!!!

[mattyhoobastank]

Noel shines a light on me!

[MrRyanb85]

This a b-side as well, Noel still hasn't learned from the mistakes with Masterplan and Half the World Away.

[amaniteprototype]

Can´t believe this is not on the album, it´s almost like Noel doesn´t know which songs are better than others. "AKA... What A Life" is Noel´s worst song ever, and he still chose it as a single :S

[celt67]

10 levels beyond brilliant. And to all the fucks saying it's just like 'Gas Panic'... a. It isn't, and b. I'd rather have 2 Gas Panics in the music world than 30 'Wanted' craps or Adele dirges bogging up the charts.

Noel's shite ( and this isn't shite ) is worth more than their very best tunes.

[suim2007]

Clare Torry did it better, as did the stones, but not a bad song nonetheless

[ChelyVonBitch]

Impresionantemente PERFECTA.

[samsabruskongen]

Typical Noel, making this a B-side when there are sub-par songs on the actual album

[RGFoster1]

@samsabruskongen totally agree, I think this is the best tune he's done. most of the album is pretty underwhelming

[vilemjuranek]

Goosebumps.

[Kedfagan]

Unbelievable. A B-Side? Pure Class

[jetblackdovemusic]

Noel pays tribute to the adage it ain't just the notes but the space between.

[tallowgaa]

This is brillant

[chump5874]

Sounds the same as Gas Panic! Fail.

[tinnocio]

@chump5874 And this is bad how? Gas Panic is one of the best songs Oasis created...

[HJP881]

What? This great song is a b-side? Well, typical to the Noel :)

[cardinalfire999]

This is just a B-Side? Wow. Gives a little nod to Great Gig in the Sky. :)

[TheMickSgrill]

REPLAY !!!!!

[superrandompanda]

The word 'cant' wait' is no longer fit to describe this song....I wet myself is more appropriate

[carl478]

This is his best song of the new stuff. Typical Noel having a beaut for a B-side!

[theblazingangel]

One of the better ones from his new stuff but I don't like the woman screeching through it. Oh well. :l Looking forwrd to the new versions of Stop the Clocks and (I Wanna Live in a Dream) In my Record Machine! :D

[PeterZeeke]

High Flying birds champange supernova?

[seoDuyal]

Fucking brilliant, maybe the lord shine a light on him

[confetis411]

the best song writters of the world !!!!!!!!!

[DylannnKerr]

i usually cant press the replay button but this is unbelievable, once simply is not enough, what a legend !!

[SongwritingWorld]

i can see OASIS returning in a few years and i can seriously imagine this being played as the end song and blowing the roof off, OASIS shall return, the people demand greatness to return.

[Camelsarse]

I wish the new album sounded more like this.



[NirvanaKDC1996]

Amazing

[6265ash]

cant wait for his album does anyone know when this is coming out in australia?

[dave790]

@6265ash it's out. though no b-sides - such as this - on itunes yet.

[fritzybaby1]

It has an air of Great Gig in the Sky by Pink Floyd about it when the woman starts singing.

I love this, it's epic and i love the fact that Noel puts out such great B-sides, but somebody really needs to have a word with him or whoever is in charge of releasing this kind of stuff as B-sides because they really deserve to be A's. Amazing track.

[PaoloMix09]

@fritzybaby1 Haha, exactly what I've been thinking about this song!

[Cragrok]

when i feel like a drop in the ocean but there's no one else i see and my body is bent and broken let the lord shine a light on me.. Cant wait for the album on the 17th and by the sounds of this the b-sides album in a few years will be mega. Thank the lord for Noel! or his dad but lets not go there lol

[PrettyGreenBeadyEye]

How can the Lord shine a light on himself???

[kevinhaast]

@PrettyGreenBeadyEye Ok ok, let's say on his son perhaps then... ;)

[kevinhaast]

Eat this (and all other songs from High Flying Birds) Mr. Liam! ;)

[PrettyGreenBeadyEye]

@SeanWesley81 Chill out mate. Noel Gallagher is God. That doesn't make me a loser or anyone else a loser for thinking it. The comment was a bit of banter and you've took it too seriously.

[celticfureva1]

@PrettyGreenBeadyEye by stepping into his shadow lol

[MiriamOasis]

Well , How i can see Lord left shine a light on you , AWESOME !

[thehrafa]

i say it again noel is a genious,great song

[jnrviney]

CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HIM!

[ozhanakman]

goosebumps!!!! amazing!

[jamesseatonnnn]

would have preferred an epic guitar solo than the singing women.... but its still pretty damn good :'D

cant wait for the album!!!!!

[panzeboy]

the woman sounds same like woman in moby... great song

[citicineproductions]

this song, alone on the rope, and a simple game of genius are 3 b-sides that are better than anything on the LP - so strange!

[Siifter]

Somewhere in between Let's All Make Believe and Gas Panic. This is brilliant!

[snoop101able]

Class tune by find myself singing CAUSE MY FAMILY DONT SEEM SO FIRMILIAR when the bass kicks in, b sides are better than the singles in my humble opinion

[wallywatkins]

i wish this song was longer, could be a great ten minute masterpiece. amazing.

[NSAHAI1]

b-side???

really??

[danlar86]

WOW!!

[MaximumRave]

This is the "brilliant" side from AKA What A Life!! Brilliant Noel its good to have you back!!!

[oas1s]

Non se po sente...

[AlStAmPlEr]

@oas1s bene... fatti un giro altrove allora

[TheBlackJacksItalia]

@oas1s beh tutti hanno il diritto di non capire un cazzo di musica

[Hush789]

great!!!

[Dweldolad]

Great gig in the sky

[faceitphotography]

RGFoster nice one! The lady on the backing vocals is my Wife Joy Rose. A vocal genius with so much humility ;-)

[JackIsntBald]

@faceitphotography She's done a great job

[mrGamespump]

SIr Noel Gallagher

[geoshep2011]

up until 2min4 its the most calming song ever

[etsukoai]

[TofikToficTofic]

sounds like gas panic

[jjmorga69]

Absolute sheer class!!!!!!!

[lemsipaddict]

genius in a song and songwriter...

[amozoness6]

And on the seventh day, Noel released Let the Lord Shine A Light On Me, and he saw that it was Good....

[Pooyoumf]

fuckin goosebumps the whole song through....

[fliquifliquifliqui]

top quality b sides. Like always. So great.

[LittleMissBluebird]

Dark side of the moon?... defiinately congrats Mr Gallagher.. very mature and impressive, not long now for the album

[jao240588]

[mrGamespump]

B-Side?! No Way!!! Best Single!!

[flashbax97]

Noel=God

[acidchi]

so fuckin great!

[amthe14U2NV]

Absolute class once again.

[MrTannedStewie]

this should of been an A side pure quality from the God known as Mr. Noel Gallagher

[2794Ross]

amazing, just a guitar solo short of perfect

[coxonbro]

the chic singer was asked to sing as she were singing at the great gig in the sky!

[5silkyt]

great tune - live version? - play the female vocal on guitar... would then be a monster tune!!

[WalkToParadiseGarden]

wow.

[bigcol911]

IMO this is the best that Noel has released so far. With the earphones on this is outstanding. The hairs on the back of my neck stood to attention when that woman sang. Thank you for posting that.

[hardeepbhullar]

This one goes out to Steve Jobs.

[RGFoster1]

When the woman starts singing it's reminiscent of Gimme Shelter. Pure class

[cosmosticality]

@RGFoster1 it actually sounds quite like Lisa Fischer, amazing vocal talent that girl is

[Cynicruss2]

@RGFoster1 black soul baby .....black soul

[AkyovNorthWest]

@RGFoster1 exactly what i was thinking

[treaclebeard]

@RGFoster1 yeah and a bit Floydy, Great Gig In The Sky kind of thing - which is awesome

[mws235]

another Noel Gallagher classic!

[lostmyshoes80]

Always new Noel would Bring The Light

[maurefra12]

No me dejas de sorprender Noel
