Posted April 27, 20214 yr Looking like a new single from Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds is out on Friday! Following 2017's 'Who Built The Moon?' and three EPs across 2019-20, Noel has been working on a fourth full album - so presumably this will lead into that. @1387075440225947648
April 29, 20214 yr Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds announce ‘Back The Way We Came: Vol 1 (2011-2021)’ - a Greatest Hits Album celebrating 10 years of Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds.

April 29, 20214 yr Missing a couple of Top 75 hits: 'Dream On' (#52) and 'She Taught Me How to Fly' (#71). Aside from those two, the only other missing single is 'If Love Is The Law' which is a shame as that's a great song. Great tracklisting otherwise! I'm surprised those 18 tracks are spread across two discs, usually that many tracks would fit on one.
April 29, 20214 yr hate these incomplete tracklists when releasing a GH especially if you've released like 7 singles and you missed 3 of them in the GH boo :/
April 29, 20214 yr Aside from those two, the only other missing single is 'If Love Is The Law' which is a shame as that's a great song. Great tracklisting otherwise! I'm surprised those 18 tracks are spread across two discs, usually that many tracks would fit on one. 'Stop The Clocks' was 18 tracks spread over 2 discs. Really shocked that Noel's gone with a GH, given how he hated the idea of Oasis having one. When the record label wanted one, Noel went in and specifically chose 18 of what he thought was Oasis' best songs which made the 'Stop The Clocks' compilation. They did eventually release one in 'Time Flies...' when they split in 2009.
April 29, 20214 yr Loving the new song easily his best since ‘Chasing Yesterday’. Kind of wish the Greatest Hits was more like Stop the Clocks and had a few album tracks. ‘ You Know We Can’t Go Back’ is one of my favourite post Oasis singles so would of liked that to be included.
April 29, 20214 yr Did not expect a greatest hits but am happy he is although like others I hate when songs are left off.
April 29, 20214 yr Great song. Can hear elements of Thirteen Senses - Into the Fire and Andreas Johnson - She in there.
April 29, 20214 yr Author Very interested to hear the new version of Holy Mountain! That's probably my favourite tune of his, went off when I saw them live in 2019.
April 29, 20214 yr 'Stop The Clocks' was 18 tracks spread over 2 discs. Yeah but the difference is that the 18 tracks on 'Stop The Clocks' were WAAAY too long to fit on one disc. With this collection, the 16 previously released songs come to around 72 minutes so with the two new ones I would have thought it would just come in under the 80 minute mark and fit on one disc. Great song. Can hear elements of Thirteen Senses - Into the Fire and Andreas Johnson - She in there. Do you mean 'Glorious' by Andreas Johnson? I kinda get the Thirteen Senses comparison but not the Andreas Johnson one! Very interested to hear the new version of Holy Mountain! That's probably my favourite tune of his, went off when I saw them live in 2019. I don't think it's a new version, it's just remastered? Although it's kinda strange that such a recent track would need to be remastered. It's my favourite of his too :D
April 30, 20214 yr Do you mean 'Glorious' by Andreas Johnson? I kinda get the Thirteen Senses comparison but not the Andreas Johnson one! Yes! Sorry wrong title :D the strings at around 1:30 on the track are very similar.
April 30, 20214 yr Yes! Sorry wrong title :D the strings at around 1:30 on the track are very similar. Yeah I see what you mean now actually!
