I'm really impressed, before BE the only Gem song I thought was decent was 'The Roller' He has pretty much written all my favourites on this album. I really didnt think he had songs like BATB and 'Off at the Next Exit' in him

He writes a few cringers but a few crackers also.. Eyeball Tickler (probably my favourite) Iz Rite Back After The Break Off At The Next Exit Ballroom Figured To Be Where There's Life In The Bubble With A Bullet World Outside My Room (if this is him, it might be Andy) The Roller (minus the chorus) I wish his bonus tracks on BE had got the Sitek treatment. He's a good songwriter though, no doubt Also I dunno how much he contributed to Flick of the Finger, but if he and Andy wrote it basically then that's Beady Eye's best song

Did Gem write In The Bubble With A Bullet?
Regardless, I went out on a limb recently and named Gem as my favorite songwriter in Beady Eye. Not a popular opinion, but he blew me away with his songs on BE. Pure class.

Gem's songs are mostly awful.
I think Liam should go solo, and do some collaborations with other artists.

He has a couple of these songs on Heavy Stereo's Deja Voodoo as well. Shooting Star is a great mostly-acoustic song, one of the best on the album. Reaching For Heaven and Crown Of Thoughts also. REALLY good songs.

Definitely, I love Deja Voodoo. Very underrated album IMO. Gem's singing might be a little so-so but the songs are really catchy.
