Oasis - Waiting For The Rapture (Alt Version #2 - Dig Out Your Soul Bonus Track)

[calebre]

this is class. this version should've been on the album. 

[Jcm9991]

I think for an "alternative version", the vocal melody should've been different. Would've gave it an interesting sound.

[zimmy81]

Noel is a music god,at least hes not invisible like ALL the establishment religeons gods.

[BollocksUtwat]

I like both versions. I don't get it why fans seem to need to pass judgment on the music so definitively. Why can't it be two flavours of the same song, each with its own personality? Doesn't it strike anyone how brilliant it is that he can have the same song done twice and they are so absolutely different? I love the other version as a loud rock song when I feel aggressive and this is better for blazing and chilling out. I like them both, no need for further criticism here.

[markslfc9823]

@BollocksUtwat I 2nd that man!

[RubyTuesdaydundee]

great version, better than the original but i don't think this version would've fitted with the whole feel of the album.

[tomdavies15]

<3

[100ricker]

way better than the album version noel is clueless when it comes to picking songs for albums and song versions hear Liam's vocal on "lord don't slow me down" same again

[dalton1888]

watta tune

[dreambig2004]

Only heard this version for the first time yesterday - didn't realise I was one of many who prefer it to the album version! Cool! Btw loving the High Flying Birds album, genius and seamless. Cheers Noel :)

[Pablangas100]

this version is better..es mejor cheeee

[chrisdvsmith999]

where are this coming from?x

[earbud120]

is there anyway to download this version?

[TheAtheistHindu]

I love oasis, but didn't like their last album like I didn't much like SOTSOG. But this version is so much better. Wish they put this one on album - same for other songs.

[MarideGallagher]

UHHH SEXY SONG <3

[LuisJaiime]

she put a ipod in my eye xD

[paulyroskell]

noel makes my hairs stand up everytime i hear him sing and all i can really say is WOW

[bichi8888]

this second version is better that all the first versions of the rest of "artists" OASIS is all and is the fucking best of best , fuk yeeee, u know wat I maen

[slideonronnie]

@bichi8888 I prefer Harrison riff in DOYS version♥

[AsialeeGallagher]

im mad fer it. and still.... waiting for the rapture... hahah <3

[enricataldo]

LOL waiting for the rapture.. xD

[mejtd1]

This version shits on the album version.

[hamishfails]

Very appropriate song, looking forward to the apocalypse.

[zeroTJseven]

@hamishfails Yeah enit, there's NOTHIN on telly. Bring on the four horsemen and the tribulation.

[TheLustClub]

NOEL NOEL NOEL!!!!!!

[tkaomusic88]

part 60s inspired, part psychedelica. two things i love in one song.

[bonoman1982]

does anyone know IF/WHERE this version is available???

thanks!!

Noel.........Hero!!

[Partoftheratpack]

@bonoman1982 I had it in the boxset cd, but sure you can get it on itunes now.

[radioactivechic567]

Noel's voice is pure sex in this version.

[chizeys]

@radioactivechic567 Dude I agree 100%. This is fucking brilliant. Wow his voice is so soothing and unbelievably amazing.

[dooosilver]

I prefer this version !

[itsmycornetto]

i don't care if this guy's old enough to be my dad, he's got one sexy voice

[BLAGASPANTS]

@itsmycornetto Stop making us Oasis fans feel old.. haha

[thomuk2006]

One of the best Oasis songs EVER, they ruined it on the album though! this version is heaven.

[missvivers400m]

This version is better! thumbs up if u agree

[BrotherHoodUtd]

I just raped the replay button :)

[lolZEPPELINrules]

I think I have a new favorite oasis song, I mean the original of this isnt bad, i like how heavy it is, but this is f&%king fantastic

[niebells]

I'm lost into his voice...

[ferskasito]

nice channel i love oasis and beatles rarities

[44darkness16]

Oasis forever!!

[Lynn760]

Noel's voice is giving me goosebumps. /This/ is music.

[Blink18Stew]

fuckn kick ass !!!!!

[columbiars]

hey hey hey yeah!!

[tomagoka]

I like It A lot :D

[Heathenloveforyou]

I love both version but I must agree that this one has someting very special.

[Cuoin]

Pretty disappointed Noel used the Doors knock-off version when he had this instead... it's much better.

[OasisBridlington09]

what is the last line of the song? i cant make it out

[vtr81]

@OasisBridlington09 - on the album version he says "you can take my soul off the ground, like a million hole no hand me down", but he says something slightly different here, hard to make out.

[Giuli15oasis]

@vtr81 Lay my soul off the ground, like a million more that have me down

[Giuli15oasis]

@OasisBridlington09 Lay my soul off the ground, like a million more that have me down

[kurt9876543210]

this is passion, atheist's passion

[BLAGASPANTS]

@kurt9876543210 Belief in music creates miracles.

[fmilia2millions]

whilst i think i preferre this more mellowed version, the version they'd used on dig out your soul fits in sucession to the songs before and after. The heavy bass and rift continues the groove that we hear in the previous two tracks and then sets up the next one. So I can see they're reason for using the version that they did.

[Zinkpind]

I might be the only one to think that the album version is better. Sure the tune and the vocals are slightly better but it looses the swagger that is the album version which I think is cool.

[TheMrbollox]

@Zinkpind

yeah the album one is better

[bdacunha]

This is really disappointing to hear, mainly because it's crazy how this wasn't the version used for the album. It's a much better version, though the one on the album is still pretty good.

[chriz00]

COOLEST LOVE SONG EVEERRR !!!!

[KurosakiIchigogirl]

OASIS PUT A APPLE IN MY EYE

[lanoviadepetedoherty]

f*cking great version ♥

[tvrulesnation]

Here we go this sounds ALOT better, i'm sorry but the released version basically was Five To One with Oasis lyrics. This is actually good though :)

[44darkness16]

wooow I like much this version than the other one :D

[lanoviadepetedoherty]

jajajajjaja he wrote this song for me, i love you noel!

[amarinp]

better :D... the other version sounds like FIVE TO ONE of THE DOORS! & i dont like it :S

[john84928]

Whats "Alt" Meaning?? Can Anyone Tell ME?

[Procie28]

Means 'alternative' or a different version

[geor8219]

@john84928 alternate

[acampos]

The ending reminds me a lot of One by U2, love it!

[Doumanumero1]

I just figured out the chords for this version if anyone wants it. Verse: Am Chord I don't know the name of X00210 F Chorus "i said I'm tired" C Am F Am second time end on E End part same as chorus until the part where it goes C to F until the end.

[themuselover]

@Doumanumero1 you mean an Aminor7th? :P

[Doumanumero1]

I mean it doesn't really matter. You can play either.

[thejpcable]

im wiiiiiiired. one of the best.

[liamgallagher232]

cool fuckin' great!!

[DaveCJay]

Great version, it's nice to hear different versions of the songs but the original that went on the album is the best. people say this should have went on the album but maybe they have heard the album version so many times that is doesn't seem as effective as the altered one. Regardless nice version, love the echo reverb vocal.

[Maplestaff]

Wow, it sounds like one of the Servant's song.

I love Oasis and The Servant

[19gee83]

why isn't this version on the album, so much better

[Galactica00]

i love noel!!!!

[micagallagher]

come get me off the merry - go - round

[DizLexia13]

My fiance dedicated this song to me...

[lessavyfav712712]

Well that was cool that he dedicated a song that wasn't written by him to you. I think I'll dedicate every song they wrote to myself then.

[slimjoel14]

pissy much? stop moaning ...

[lessavyfav712712]

So people CAN dedicate other peoples' songs to other people? I don't understand what you're getting at.

[slimjoel14]

I think she ment her /bf said somthing like this song explains what im feeling blah blah blah, you know like the whole "our song" thing? who cares

[supernova1]

this song touches your soul.

[anonymeprod]

Where are you find the piks please?

[Chunkazoota]

Genius.

[09mrPNJ]

me and my brother kyle? pmsl lol only joking guy's i love oasis. it's just the way they played the Am then. TUUUUUUUUUUNNNE!

[ChrisLiveforever1]

Biblicle

[paamcaat]

He put an apple in my eye...come back Noel...come back

[Phil1796]

where can i downoad this plz

[27shocking]

on the dvd it shows in black and white footage Noel playin this base line to andy and gem. Its class but really noel wanted a loud rockin album hence the version that made the album.

[AcedMoney777]

mega.

[stevemodeen]

Noel is the best musician from Oasis no doubt!

[DUMBARTON1RANGERS0]

A lot better than the actual album version.

[JoeyTheFatKid]

i cant get enough of this and those swollen hand blues

this band towers above all other modern bands

and is within the top 10 greatest british bands of all time

when they pass away we will realize what we missed

[SKWalrus]

These were the best days of our lives.

[JoeyTheFatKid]

the last few seconds with the orchestral fade out is just like the last few seconds of Hey Now

[JoeyTheFatKid]

this destroys the album version

[JoeyTheFatKid]

if only he put this version on it instead of the other one, and included those swollen hand blues (and liam's Boy with the blues), DOYS would have been a real classic

[MelodyMacher]

Unfortunately this is another classic example of Noel's poor decision making.

Look at the mistakes he made of the many great b-sides that could of and would of sent previous albums onto another fuckin level!

He's still a total ledge tho!

[BLAGASPANTS]

@MelodyMacher I think they wanted to keep a theme to the album.  IMO of course.

[anonymeprod]

inspiré par five to one de the doors

le beat du début est le meme

[Heartxbeat87]

This version proves not the whole song was a Doors rip off ... The melody is from Noel Gallagher himself (but he stole the riff and pretty much the drum from the door)

He never hid it, and it made a great song. But this version is, I believe, even more awesome ... Noel is an awesome songwriter!

[jayellwood126]

sounds nothing like u2, bono couldnt lace noel gallaghers shoes!!

[tp199fan]

loving that comment pal!

[Partoftheratpack]

Good how the song has two sides to it. Album one - bit of spite to it, this version - a sigh.

[michaelkyoo777]

its not a cover you imbocile

[slideawae]

haha! I know knucklehead! :D

[noumealand]

ça c'est de la vraie musique !

[smokige88]

SHE PUT AN APPLE IN MA EYEEE!!!!!

[raulishoogallagher]

and sounds more like one of u2 GREAT OASIS

[lito130483]

Escuchen "five to one "de The Doors y saquen sus conclusiones.....ambos temas tienen un parecido...

[raulishoogallagher]

todo en la musica tiene un parecido no te preocupes no es algo nuevo;)

[MalanguitoOfficial]

The image is excelent! AND TOO THE SONG!

[TheYellowAngel]

I really love this song!but the version can be found on tha album I like most!it´s the best song of the new album!

oasis forever!!!

[Sheephead14]

Where you get all these alternate takes from?! I love this, dont think it would have suited the album as much as the original one, but still fucking brilliant!

Peace

[meltagedieb]

it came with the special edition of dig out your soul

[ProfessorSassaroli]

SIMPLY BEAUTFUL

[Stellsailor]

this is nice too

the best from the new album

[LittleRock1970]

I think both versions sound great but I do like the mellow vibe on this one.... dreamyyyyyy <3

[oasistar]

LOVE this version! i'm glad it's at least on the bonus version and we got to hear it..could've been lost in one of the many unreleased songs they've got!

[NoelLiamEven]

I love this version <3

[tcaporale]

I like this better than the album version.

[dancollins12345]

well better version no need to rip the doors when u have this arrangement.... far better!! Proper Oasis!!

[psj3809]

Much prefer the proper Oasis version on the album. The slow unplugged type songs by Noel are a nice alternative but Oasis are about rock n roll !

[Ratty2000]

i like the other version much better,on their album dig out your soul

[happymoi1]

omg incredible

[oasismonkeyslfc]

Noel says of this song:

"That song is a story about meeting somebody in Ibiza in 2000 in Space. When I met them I was like, Fuckin hell. It was the person Ive spent the last eight years with, and it was kind of... I guess its a very poetic way of saying will you go out with me. But dont spoil that for the kids who read the magazine. Lets say its about an angel!"

2008

I think thats nice and sweet ;)

[raulmadri]

I think you are maricon

[oasismonkeyslfc]

actually, raulmadri, i'm a girl :P

[Rideway]

hahahahahahahha

[ellandroadhero]

This version is better. No rip off of the Doors.

[NewGoldStandard]

this is the bee's knees!

[Cunners82]

Bag it upis the best track on the album you tosspot.

[vivemaker]

This is seriously one of the best songs i heard from oasis!

[tommoody1609]

much better than the album version!!

[wthallnamestaken]

you can let my soul on the ground , like a million more that let me down .

is that what he says at the end ??

i really wanna know

[md47bot]

yes

[lynxguy1]

anywhere to download this?

[pete2907]

yeah i agree

i prefer this to album version its suit the lyrics much more

legends!!!!!!!!!!

[greigypeg]

MAANNN I LOOVVVVVEEE THE CAKE!

[theOriginofSteak]

holy honeyfuck, what? How did this song get so much fucking better than it already fucking was? It's like an orgasm of the ears. Fucking epic.

[wopman1010]

UNBELIEVABLE.

[tpfang56]

Oh, man. This is great. Much better than the album version.

And Noel's vocals are even better.

[supernova1]

wow....

[e313fender]

Love this version and the channel.

Keep it up OasisILove

[Partoftheratpack]

Love this version

[BunyipBlueEyes]
