Universal Gleam sounds like a fucking furniture polish or a window cleaner.

Nice. A full month. I'll take `You Better Run`.

Allen (etaeoe), Wednesday, 26 July 2017 06:35 (six years ago) link

15 tracks is a lot. Does Liam really need to release a 15 songs album ? I'm not sure he has that much to say musically and lyrically.

lololol otm

Allen (etaeoe), Wednesday, 26 July 2017 06:36 (six years ago) link

Some of them might be skits?

ahah, now THAT would make the album worth listening to !

AlXTC from Paris, Wednesday, 26 July 2017 09:14 (six years ago) link

The last three are only on the deluxe version - so you know they're the deep cuts for the real heads.

Wag1 Shree Rajneesh (ShariVari), Wednesday, 26 July 2017 10:16 (six years ago) link

including a big Oasis-esque epic or two

imago, Wednesday, 26 July 2017 11:33 (six years ago) link

Does Liam really need to release an 15 songsalbum ?

crazed with patience (bizarro gazzara), Wednesday, 26 July 2017 11:36 (six years ago) link

(xp) A 'Why oh why didn't they put that one on the album, what were they thinking, tchoh! *slaps forehead*' track

weird echo of the falsies (Tom D.), Wednesday, 26 July 2017 11:47 (six years ago) link

nah Liam doesn't need to release an album... he should have released a TRIPLE album.
badass muthafooker style.

AlXTC from Paris, Wednesday, 26 July 2017 12:46 (six years ago) link

Okay, three to go!

1. ‘Wall Of Glass’ -- Tom D
2. ‘Bold’ -- sarahell
3. ‘Greedy Soul’ -- everything
4. ‘Paper Crown’ -- ShariVari
5. ‘For What It’s Worth’ -- UMS

15. 'I Never Wanna Be Like You' -- AlXTC

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 26 July 2017 13:02 (six years ago) link

It is perhaps telling that all these song titles feel like refrigerator magnets. Thus, the three remaining titles

"When I'm In Need, I Get By, I've All I Need."

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 26 July 2017 13:03 (six years ago) link

buddhist liam

imago, Wednesday, 26 July 2017 13:14 (six years ago) link

i will take "i get by" please - i'm a little less musical than some of you but i'm sure i can think of something.

Bein' Sean Bean (LocalGarda), Wednesday, 26 July 2017 13:40 (six years ago) link

i'm a little less musical than some of you

that's never held liam back tbh

plp will eat itself (NickB), Wednesday, 26 July 2017 13:47 (six years ago) link

also i have had the phrase 'i get by' stuck in my head for an hour to the tune of 'let it be'

plp will eat itself (NickB), Wednesday, 26 July 2017 13:49 (six years ago) link

"when I'm in need" and "I've all I need" could have been merged into one song, considering the titles...
Liam needs to be more synthetic.

AlXTC from Paris, Wednesday, 26 July 2017 13:54 (six years ago) link

Part of me wants to use this to train a neural net on Oasis songs, make Ned read the results, and actually learn how to finish a recording on my iPad, but that seems like a lot of work, especially making Ned talk into a microphone.

El Tomboto, Wednesday, 26 July 2017 13:55 (six years ago) link

ill tackle ‘I’ve All I Need’ is nobody else has claimed it

AdamVania (Adam Bruneau), Wednesday, 26 July 2017 15:06 (six years ago) link

Is there still one available please?

Le Bateau Ivre, Wednesday, 26 July 2017 15:26 (six years ago) link

When I'm in need still free right? I'll take it xxx LG

Le Bateau Ivre, Wednesday, 26 July 2017 15:27 (six years ago) link

Yes, "When I'm In Need". It's always possible to double up on a song title, there are so many Liam fans here we might have to.

weird echo of the falsies (Tom D.), Wednesday, 26 July 2017 15:28 (six years ago) link

Awes

Le Bateau Ivre, Wednesday, 26 July 2017 15:29 (six years ago) link

cool so I think we have the whole tracklist covered, deluxe tracks included !

AlXTC from Paris, Wednesday, 26 July 2017 15:30 (six years ago) link

You guys better make this sick, fucking funny and well tasty. There'd better be some chin-out music.

The Anti-Climax Blues Band (Turrican), Wednesday, 26 July 2017 16:10 (six years ago) link

There's a lot of potential with "Greedy Soul" since it rhymes with "Needy Noel".

everything, Wednesday, 26 July 2017 17:53 (six years ago) link

I am looking forward to the greatness. Per El Tomboto, I have never heard of microphones.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 26 July 2017 17:55 (six years ago) link

Are there any general rules for these? Never done one before :)

Bein' Sean Bean (LocalGarda), Wednesday, 26 July 2017 18:49 (six years ago) link

write some fuckin real music

imago, Wednesday, 26 July 2017 18:50 (six years ago) link

write some real fuckin music
write some real fuckin songs
write some real fuckin music
even if no fuckin cunt sings along

everything, Wednesday, 26 July 2017 19:18 (six years ago) link

Anyway reconfirming the final tracklist

1. ‘Wall Of Glass’ -- Tom D
2. ‘Bold’ -- sarahell
3. ‘Greedy Soul’ -- everything
4. ‘Paper Crown’ -- ShariVari
5. ‘For What It’s Worth’ -- UMS
6. ‘When I’m In Need’ -- Le Bateau Ivre
7. ‘You Better Run’ -- etaeoe
8. ‘I Get By’ -- LocalGarda
9. ‘Chinatown’ -- Captain Jay Vee
10. ‘Come Back To Me’ -- m bison

15. 'I Never Wanna Be Like You' -- AlXTC

Rules as stated at the top of the thread, ie, just get it in to me on time at the end of August. Format doesn't matter. If people want to post cover art they've worked on for general consideration, go nuts.

Missed this

jk rowling obituary thread (darraghmac), Thursday, 27 July 2017 00:25 (six years ago) link

going to admit ive never heard a Liam solo track nor listened to a full Oasis record. my plan is to figure out what Beatles song to rip off and build a song around that

AdamVania (Adam Bruneau), Thursday, 27 July 2017 00:26 (six years ago) link

You and me both - former not latter.

weird echo of the falsies (Tom D.), Thursday, 27 July 2017 00:29 (six years ago) link

I can scarce bring myself to confess that Beady Eye are a closed book to me.

im making alt r&b bc fuck liam gallagher

nice cage (m bison), Thursday, 27 July 2017 00:55 (six years ago) link

I'm just going to do a cover of the only Oasis song I am familiar with. I think that that will be very Bold

sarahell, Thursday, 27 July 2017 05:24 (six years ago) link

I love it when people say things like "I've never listened to an Oasis record in full" like they're expecting some kind of medal or prize for it.

The Anti-Climax Blues Band (Turrican), Thursday, 27 July 2017 07:10 (six years ago) link

Good, we can carry on doing it then.

weird echo of the falsies (Tom D.), Thursday, 27 July 2017 07:50 (six years ago) link

my plan is to figure out what Beatles song to rip off and build a song around that

that's a good approach : looking forward to hearing the result !
as for me, I think I'll go and make what I think a oasis/liam song could sound like. problem is I'm a bit ill atm so not sure I'll be able to sing...
there should be a liam voice generator !

AlXTC from Paris, Thursday, 27 July 2017 08:21 (six years ago) link

i'm thinking spoken word, possibly with a sample of some kind. or else a friend can help me with some banging fooking synth

Bein' Sean Bean (LocalGarda), Thursday, 27 July 2017 09:09 (six years ago) link

wait a minute, I'm not sure synths are appropriate to make REAL music !

AlXTC from Paris, Thursday, 27 July 2017 09:16 (six years ago) link

I will let them speak for themselves...but I may send some direct prompts.

Ned Raggett, Saturday, 9 September 2017 16:57 (six years ago) link

My replacement track for LBI is in Ned's atomic linkbin.... What's your excuse?

Universal LULU Nation (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Sunday, 10 September 2017 05:16 (six years ago) link

Hey thanks for doing that man!

Le Bateau Ivre, Sunday, 10 September 2017 09:20 (six years ago) link

no problem was fun, gave me something to do last night...hope all is well as it can be LBI

Universal LULU Nation (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Sunday, 10 September 2017 16:48 (six years ago) link

Okay, putting it all together and cover art sorted out. (I took the bull by the horns for this one -- but it came together very simply, as you'll see.)

Ned Raggett, Sunday, 10 September 2017 19:12 (six years ago) link

Also, here's the track listing buuuuut I need you all to reconfirm what names you want me to use. If you included a name with your file, I'm using that!

04 (UMS's real name) - When I'm in Need
05 (LocalGarda's first name) - I Get By
06 Captain Jay Vee - Chinatown
07 Matthew Mathieu - Come Back To Me

09 Adam Bruneau - I've All I Need
10 DJP - Doesn't Have To Be This Way
11 imago - All My People_All Mankind
12 AlXTC - I Never Wanna Be Like You

Ned Raggett, Sunday, 10 September 2017 19:31 (six years ago) link

My track title has a slash rather than an underscore!

imago, Sunday, 10 September 2017 19:34 (six years ago) link

I am happy with my real name being used. Tho maybe not on the board, I suppose.

Bein' Sean Bean (LocalGarda), Sunday, 10 September 2017 19:57 (six years ago) link

Tom D will suffice.

Wewlay Bewlay (Tom D.), Sunday, 10 September 2017 20:02 (six years ago) link

Slash in the title, imago, no worries.

Ned Raggett, Sunday, 10 September 2017 20:27 (six years ago) link

Great work Ned!

ShariVari should be fine. I don't think A Number Of Names will sue.
