'Woke up sleeping' makes almost less sense than the Norway line IMO . But what do I know? Just like a 'bullet in the gun'... It's a metaphor for waking up and realising your life/current circumstance is going nowhere he woke up and realised he was "sleeping on train that was bound for nowhere". |

Kinda bummed NME describe "Girl With X-Ray Eyes" as being similar to "If I Had A Gun". That song is boring and this tune had an exciting title that made me think of David Bowie. Yeah, but this is the NME, so I don't believe it until I hear it. |

I can't believe Jane slept with Michael again. That stupid idiot. He left her for Kimberly, he slept with her sister. He tricked her into giving him half her business, and then she goes ahead and sleeps with him again. I mean she's crazy. How could she do something like that? Oh that Jane, she makes me so mad.  |

I apologize if this has been posted on here already; What track are you most looking forward to? Thoughts?
’The Riverman’
Noel's already described this opener as “summoned from a smoky room in 1963... It's fucking amazing. It's my favourite track on the album, and one of my favourites I've ever done." Sure enough, it’s a swampy treasure full of lusting lyrics (“there’s something in the way she moves me to distraction”) and acoustic jangles that simmers towards a saxophone solo climax like something out of a murky detective movie montage.
’In The Heat Of The Moment’
You’ve heard this one. This lead single still sounds as big as it did in November 2014, going for the indie-rock-sing-along jugular with a chorus so huge Noel probably had to apply to his local council for planning permission.
‘The Girl with X-Ray Eyes’
A howling, melancholic epic with massive echoes of ‘Hotel California’, with typically Noel lyrics: “she swallowed space and time… she shot me to the sun, like a bullet from a gun.” Cinematic and sprawling, it’s not unlike 2011 single ‘If I Had A Gun’.
’Lock All The Doors’
Oasis die-hards are going to go nuts for this one. Gallagher first started working on the track 23 years ago. Its ‘Be Here Now’-era fizz of guitars are more than worth the wait here, powering to a stomping adrenaline-packed finale.
’The Dying Of The Light’
The pace drops for this “grandiose… uplifting and beautiful track,” as Noel described it to NME in November. “Woke up stinking on a train that was bound for Norway,” Gallagher sings over maudlin piano. “I tried my best to get there but I can’t afford the bus fare.”
’The Right Stuff’
You know that strutting brass I mentioned? This jazzy, lightly psychedelic jam is the album’s most far-out moment, full of crazed stabs of saxophone, bluesy distorted guitar and drugged grooves. “Are you the devil with a heart of gold?” asks Noel, bolstered by female backing singers.
’While The Song Remains The Same’
Opening with a Brian Eno-ish synth odyssey, this is another Sergio Leone spaghetti western soundtrack killer, like ‘The Riverman’. “We can dance beneath the fire flies on an empty road,” suggests Noel over a shuffling beat and spooky guitar echoes.
’The Mexican’
“You need love just like a kid on crack,” booms Noel over cowbell and Josh Homme-inspired riff, “I got a feeling that what I want is holding you back.” A sleazy LSD-fuelled ‘60s freak-out.
’You Know We Can’t Go Back’
Sparkling guitars chime over airy synths before – what’s this?! – a four minute blast of Springsteen pop-rock, unfurled over breathless drums. The album’s cheeriest moment, Noel sounds like he’s having a tonne of fun, swapping swagger for buoyant, celebratory melodies. “Maybe I believe in magic love, find it in the moon and stars above,” he cries.
’Ballad of The Mighty I’
You’ll have heard this one too. An emphatic closer, driven by a sinister bass line, over which guest guitarist Johnny Marr slings crunching chords, its strings and determined chorus calls (“yes I’ll find you!”) make for an intriguing finale.

'You know we Can't go Back' sounds like it will be an epic Noel anthem.
