Do we know much about this track? Like when it was recorded etc? I know it's credited to a ton of different people. Its fantastic and easily as good as anything on DBTT.
This backed with that Cast No Shadow remix also from the goal soundtrack could have made a fantastic oasis single (would have been great as a farewell single after the break up). The Dave Sardy mix of Morning Glory is great too.
I'd love Noel to have a few songs like this on the new album.

Its really called 'Weight Of The World On Your Shoulders' What makes you say that? It's listed as 'Who Put The Weight Of The World On My Shoulders?' on the CD cover (which is, as far as I'm aware, the song's only official release). ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51LFSfMZ49L.jpg |

Odds are its life began at either the tail end of Heathen Chemistry or during the DBTT sessions. I personally just think it's an average song and glad it didn't land on an official Oasis album.

I can't speak as to the quality of it, but I personally really enjoy it and rank it as one of Oasis best post-90s ballads, along with Let There Be Love and Idler's Dream I think it would've fit right at home on DBTT, but maybe only as a bonus track or something. It fits with the batch of songs but doesn't fit the album, if you get what I mean. |

Just think of the songs that DID NOT make DBTT. - Stop The Clocks - Record Machine - Boy With The Blues - Lord Don't Slow Me Down - Who Put The Weight Of The World - She Must Be One Of Us - Let It Come Down Over Me - The Good Rebel Almost a second album right there.  |

LDSMD SHOULD have ended up on DBTT in my opinion. Great rocking tune. So what if Noel would have sung 4 and a half track instead of 3 and a half?
As for "Weight", it sounds a bit cheesy and whiny to me. I don't know, I like the instrumental but I don't like that whole "and noooow she's gooone" thing.

LDSMD does indeed have that DBTT sound to it. I prefer it over songs like TMOS, KTDA and LTBL. |

Add to that: - Eyeball Tickler - Can Y'See It? (woulda made a good "transition"-type track for a double album) - Pass Me Down The Wine - The Quiet Ones - Won't Let You Down - Ain't Got Nothin - Sitting Here In Silence That's a total of 15 tracks in addition to what's on DBTT. I definitely see 7 or 8 tracks that would be a great addition to any Oasis album. The b-side strength tracks aren't the best by Oasis standards, but not horrible either. I think they could've pulled off a double album. Some of those weaker tracks might not seem so bad when used in the context of a bigger whole. A good example of that is Mellon Collie and The Infinite Sadness - at least a third of that album seems rather weak when played on its own, but in the context of the whole it all fits perfectly and I can't think of removing a single track from it. Goddamn....the possibilities..... |

Sardy did that tune no favors. I think the vocals are what make it seem like it's plodding, and boring to some people. They seem really "muddy", when mixed with the instrumental, but I think it serves a good purpose, a purpose similar to Married With Children, that being a slower song to bring down an album that's jammed pack with full-on energy. A way they could've done better with it, was if they had a transition into a shorter version of I Can See It Now! (Can Y'See It Now?!) to close out the album (sort of like a hidden track). That would've brought out more of the beauty in Let There Be Love, while still closing the album out in a really really cool way. As for A Bell Will Ring, I think I'd have a better view on it, had it not come right after Keep the Dream Alive, which is sort of a middle of the road-type song. Not bad, not good, just a typical Oasis album track that is enjoyable & gets the job done. Now, A Bell Will Ring coming after a song like Lyla or Turn Up the Sun, that would be interesting. |

Andy Bell lead off the game with a mammoth home run with Turn Up The Sun. However, he struck out mightily near the end of the game with Keep The Dream Alive. Sounds like an Oasis cover band. |

Alrighty guys, I just spent 30 minutes compiling this, paying attention as best I could to flow and track transitions.
This is the best I could come up with if one wanted to make a 2 disc set of all 26 tracks, resembling an actual album

26 songs
Disc 1:
1.Lord Don't Slow Me Down
2.Lyla
3.Pass Me Down The Wine
4.Part Of The Queue
5.Can Y'See It Now?
6.Aint Got Nothin
7.The Importance Of Being Idle
8.The Quiet Ones
9.Record Machine
10.Who Put The Weight Of The World On My Shoulders
11.Mucky Finger
12.Wont Let You Down
13.Boy With The Blues
Disc 2:
1.Turn Up The Sun
2.Eyeball Tickler
3.Guess God Thinks Im Abel
4.Just Let It Come Down
5.A Bell Will Ring

I think sequencing was a big issue with the album and they should've added a few more tracks. I'm not one for overly long albums, but to leave off Record Machine, LDSMD, WPTWOTWOMS, etc....come on guys. Seriously. Just forget for a minute that those are Noel vocals and simply think about the quality material that was left off. As for Let There Be Love, I agree - its got the same role on the album as MWC had on DM. I've always loved the track and the DBTT version and I really enjoy just how much it really does bring the mood down. Its like the nostalgic, reflective music played over a film's credits or something. Love it.  |

who put the weight of the world on my shoulders?
imo, its an Oasis classic (lost classic) and i put it in the same level with "The Masterplan".
it should be in the album and release it as a single.
DBTT is actually a great album but with a few changes it could be a masterpiece.

I think WPTWOTWOMS is a very good song and deserved a lot more attention that simply being on the soundtrack of a mediocre film.
In saying that I don't think it suits DBTT style and sound, neither does LTBL for me and I'm not a fan of the album version anyway (It's A Crime version is much better in my opinion)
If indeed it was written during the HC sessions but was omitted then that is another example of post 2000 Oasis fucking up a tracklisting. It's far superior than most of that album
The tone and sound would fit SOTSOG era Oasis best in my opinion however the last thing that era needed was another slow Noel sung ballad.
Would like to see Noel perform it at some stage, just to show its not been completely forgotten

Its inconsistant because you have random "upper" songs such as PYMWYMI and ICSAL scattered throughout seemingly to keep things from being bogged down, cuz ya gotta have rocker, but I think if they had just gone full out mellow it would've been great. Roll It Over Who Feels Love Go Let It Out Cigarettes In Hell One Way Road Carry Us All Little James Where Did It All Go Wrong Sunday Morning Call Full On Let's All Make Believe Let There Be Love Just Getting Older Revolution Song Yea, thats a lot of Noel vocals, but that issue aside, thats a good group of songs right there with a consistant kind of feel throughout. Dammit Noel! |

Dammit Noel! I kind of agree that they missed a trick on SOTSOG and that the rockers weren't needed but what I meant was the era was already full great Noel sung slow songs which are better or on par than 'Who Put....' therefore it wouldn't have been needed back then One Way Road, Where Did All Go Wrong?, Sunday Morning Call, It's a Crime, Revolution Song and Carry Us All were all around back then. HC was crying out for a Noel sung song of this quality but they decided She is Love (worst Oasis song ever) and Force of Nature (in the top 10 worst Oasis songs ever) should fill two of Noels quota. Anyway its all hypethectical because to my knowledge there's no real source as to when this song was written but it'd improved HC by miles had it been in place of one of the aforementioned tracks moreso than it could have ever improved SOTSOG |

I'm pretty positive it was stated Weight of The World was written in late 2004, early 2005 after Noel was approached to help with the soundtrack, the producers wanted a song to fit the film.
I think it was mentioned on BBC Radio 1 when they played each of the three Oasis related songs over the period of 5 days in the build up to the release of Goal! and the OST. It, along with the UNKLE mix of Cast No Shadow, were recorded in April / May 2005 with only Noel, Gem (from Oasis) and Terry Kirkbride on the drums
Just while Goal! Is being mentioned, Acquiesce was also played during the film, it was said to sound "different" and was thought it had been remixed like Morning Glory had been by Sardy. I've never seen the movie since so no idea if it was true or not.

I like it, sounds good..if it could have been on DBTT, should it have been? Hmm, I agree that it wouldn't have fit but...why not HC? Definitely better than the Force of Nature and having it on the album about half way through would have been interesting

This is an old thread, but it called my attention that people likes Let There Be Love. For me, the Noel´s acoustic demo is 100 times better than the sleepy final version. I really can´t understand why people like it.
As well:
- Eyeball Tickler (too Beady Eye)
- Stop The Clocks (an average and overrated song - Who Put the Weight... is way better)
- A Bell Will Ring (Keep the Dream Alive is a beautiful song. If I had to choose any of both, I´ll stick to second one)
And let´s not forget about Come On Outside. What a great fuckin' tune!!!! Imagine that in DBTT or DOYS sung by Liam (I love Noel´s vocals on this one anyway). Played live by Oasis should have been mega!!!!
