okay, while i share the opinion that The Masterplan is not an album, it's our best chance at ranking B-Sides without having a 58 song list [Unless you want to do that after all the albums!]# So, without further ado... 1) Listen Up - Absolutely Epic - i can't fault this song in anyway, Liam's best vocal performance with a perfect melody. 2) Fade Away - Hard, fast, Raw, another Great Vocal, and another great melody! 3) Rockin' Chair - My god, that melody! WHY WON'T IT LEAVE MY HEAD! And the lyrics aren't haf bad either! 4) Underneath The Sky - Very Different, love the harmonies, near psychedelia lyrically. 5) Stay Young - Great poppy rocker, an anthem that I wish everyone knew! Great Drums too! 6) Headshrinker - I TAKE COCAINE IN THE POURING RAIN AND I GOT NO FEEEAAAAH - that would have made this perfect! As it stands, this is a great energetic romp. 7) Half The World Away - Happy, Bouncy, a needed change of pace. Delightful when you feel like you've had enough of the world. 8) The Masterplan - Not as great as everyone says it is, but still an absolute classic. Say it loud and sing it proud! 9) Acquiesce - never used to get this song, and still can't fully enjoy the verse melody, though the chorus is great. Still a great song regardless. 10) (It's Good) To Be Free - Great, but seems to be an endless plod. And it ends quicker than you'd expect. 11) Talk Tonight - Okay, but nothing elaborate. Seeing it on the HFB tour did nothing for me. 12) Going Nowhere - Interesting to see Noel's other side, but not one to hit repeat on. 13) The Swamp Song - Great Drums, but too long. Round Are Way would have been better here. 14) I Am The Walrus [live] - Live tracks on an 'album?' No. Step out? Yes. 'Definitely Maybe' Thread: Here'(What's The Story) Morning Glory?'

Is it just me or is this the most overrated Oasis release amongst fans?
Don't get me wrong....I dig most of the record, but there are some glaring omissions and a few tracks that make little to no sense being on it. That all said it is a compilation anyhow. The recordings are uneven and very different from one another.
Still a great disc though, especially back in '98 when many of these tracks were hard as hell to find stateside.
(It's Good) To Be Free The Masterplan Acquiesce Listen Up Half The World Away Talk Tonight Headshrinker Underneath The Sky Rockin' Chair Going Nowhere Stay Young Fade Away (I really hate how this is recorded.)
(neither of these should even be on here.) Swamp Song I Am The Walrus

Anyway Acquiesce Fade Away Listen Up The Masterplan Stay Young Rockin' Chair Headshrinker (It's Good) To Be Free I am the Walrus Talk Tonight Underneath the Sky Half the World Away Going Nowhere The Swamp Song Masterplan aside, I always felt back then that Noel got the dregs to sing. I know HTWA is a bit of a treasure these days but I always thought it to be one of the weaker songs from that era.

This is tough, i don't have any real stand-out tracks i really love from it. I like a lot of them, but near enough on a similar level.
1. Underneath The Sky 2. Acquiesce 3. It's Good To Be Free 4. Listen Up 5. Fade Away 6. Rockin' Chair 7. The Masterplan 8. Stay Young 9. Half The World Away 10. I Am The Walrus 11. Headshrinker (i like the live versions of this, but the album version is poor) 12. Talk Tonight 13. Going Nowhere 14. The Swamp Song
There really is not much between the Top 7 there.

The recordings are uneven and very different from one another. Still a great disc though, especially back in '98 when many of these tracks were hard as hell to find stateside. Dont forget, the tracklisting was a joint effort between the band (probably Noel) and the fans. . . . and the recordings are bound to sound varied and uneven, because they were recorded all over the place.

Hardest album for me to rank given its my favourite Oasis 'album' and all the tracks are stellar. Surprised to see Listen Up as #1 on so many lists!
Listen Up Good to be Free Underneath the Sky Fade Away Acquiesce Rockin' Chair Headshrinker the Masterplan Going Nowhere Stay Young Talk Tonight Half the World Away Swamp Song I am the Walrus
But then again, it could change completely in a week.
