SUPERRANKER™ - Old School Special (Read 5,201 times)

[The Crimson Rambler]

Aah... the classic SUPERRANKER™. A challenge with chest hair. Strong... majestic... sexy almost...

Okay, the challenge is to rank every single release from Definitely Maybe to Be Here Now, from your very favourite to your very least, into one big-ass list which we'll all get pointlessly personal and strangely angry about. B-Sides and bonus tracks included you should be looking at 62 Noel Gallagher penned songs front to back. The quickest way to compile it is to combine any previous lists (which we've done a whole bunch of recently) and then fill in whatever's left. Eventually when you've compiled a list which you feel unsure and indifferent about (but deep down know it's the purest and most correct, especially compared to the trash everyone else is posting) you can sit back proud of your accomplishment before feeling a little dirty and briefly ponder your social life until a sudden urge to edit your post kicks in.

I like Be Here Now!  It's just a league and a half below the other two.

As boring as I Will Believe and Alive are, I don't find them grinding or a slog to listen to. My ears aren't quite rejecting them as the latter 2 do.

Still working on it. Technology is beautiful. Pasted it in one of my iPad apps which lets me drag stuff around and then copy it all again.

Took me quite a while to do this, so I apologise for any duplicates or numbers repeating. Great thread idea! I think we should do one for the SOTSOG and HC eras, and the DBTT and DOYS eras.

I do not have time in my busy schedule to read these pointless lists ;-P

Excuse me sir? You couldn't spare a moment in your busy schedule and fill in my survey at the top of the thread please?

When you see it you'll know what to do.

She's Electric is one of the most delightful little pop tunes I've ever heard.

[defmaybe00]

I'll give it a try later,I'm not sure I'll be able to do it tho

[Deleted]

I need time to do this. Again more when I m remaining myself than I don't truly dislike a single song of that period.

D'You Know What I Mean #25 and Don't Look Back in Anger #30? All Around the World Reprise AND The Swamp Song better than two fully-fleshed out songs, Hey Now! and She's Electric? The Fame at #42, ahead of Talk Tonight, Up in the Sky, Spaceman, and Be Here Now? That all seems a bit odd.

Thank you for taking the time to read through it, lesser people would have faltered

Admittedly it was done in a rush but they all seem quite true to my taste which I admit is different to most. Maybe DYKWIM should be top 20 but honestly looking back I love every song in that top 20 so it's difficult.

I just don't love DLBIA that much.

The Fame is mega and actually should be even higher!! Don't really like Spaceman or Talk Tonight (God I sound like a Noel hater) and the less said about Hey Now and She's Electric the better. If there was a place lower than 62, She's Electric would be there

Pretty mint tune tbh.

Wtf is the hate for The Fame?

Class tune.

I'd certainly have it over Talk Tonight. (utter drab of a tune)

Anyway, I'll do this later. It actually sounds fun.

I might do it pissed one night.
