Little James Track Comments
Noel Gallagher - He'd be always playing these same three chords over and over again, everywhere. We'd try to sit him in a spot and say, 'We'll turn the tape machine on, play this f***ing song and we'll see what we can do with it.' But by the time we'd get in there he'd be off somewhere else. It was like trying to get a Jack back in the f***ing box trying to get him to sit down. He was saying that he wanted that song to be an acoustic number, which is not how I remember it at all. Eventually I sat him down and he played it acoustically. We worked out an arrangement because he had about 50 verses for it and it went on for ages. So I went, 'I see it like this', and played it on an acoustic guitar and he said, 'Perfect!" I wouldn't have anyone telling me what my songs should sound like because that's my prerogative because I'm the songwriter, so I said, 'What do you want it to sound like?' and he just said he wanted it to sound like The Beatles. So we went, 'We can do that.' And that's what we did!

It's a decent melody but the lyrics are atrocious. I'll take chippers advice and not listen to it.

5 stars  Liam having a go...., 23/09/2006, by chipper_sob
You need to give credit to Liam for having a go. It takes guts to release a song like that to the public, especially when your brother is regarded as one of the greatest British songwriters of modern times and everyone's used to hearing his stuff on Oasis albums. It gets slandered alot by everyone but hey, if you don't like it don't listen to it.
