What are the songs that Liam solely wrote?
And was he part of the writing process for most/all of the tracks?

None of them are solo-penned this time. Personally I'm glad this is the route they went down, cause it's resulted in different sounds and a more varied record. You can still hear his input across most of the record, especially on WMWN the track, Meadow (which the George Harrison track he's always been trying to make), Once, Now That I've Found You, Halo and, of course, Shockwave.

He co wrote all tracks with producer greg kurstin. And some with Andrew Wyatt. He knows he's not a fantastic song writer and wanted to make a good album.

Last I heard of it he said he sent « bits » to the writers and they completed it. Apparently those bits were the chord A strummed one time. The rest is the army.

At this point we really don't know but I think it's a collaboration where Liam comes up with songs/melodies on the guitar and then they help him finish, polish, arrange the final version.

Sounds like Gary Barlow and Bryan Adams wrote most of it.

Not the ones that sound like Robbie Williams tracks.

I like to think it’s a similar process to what was shown on ‘As It Was’ with Liam almost conducting the general direction of the song in the Studio. I’m 100% sure if he wasn’t feeling a Tune, it wouldn’t get recorded

Or just get some songwriters who are anywhere near Liam's universe. It is so heartless hearing some hired pop songwriters trying to manufacture songs for one of the world's great rock and roll stars. It makes it so utterly meaningless, even more fake than when Noel completely trashed the fantastic Hindu Times demo to do something more 'Oasis' for the first single. There's one I'd like to hear Liam do. NTIFY is a real low in Gallagher history.

I do wonder if a certain group of people ever read through there posts after they’ve posted them.
It’s basically Liam should have written it himself even if it was shit then we would be in here calling it shit or he can work with songwriters so the songs are better but we’ll still be in here calling it inauthentic and shit.
The same people who criticised his writing in Oasis, the same people who criticised Beady Eye.
😂

You can think both that the song-writing in Beady Eye was poor, and that songs like Shockwave and Once sound a bit manufactured. I think they're both valid criticisms, in fact.

As much as I love Greedy Soul, an album full of them wouldn’t work, he knows his limits and that would end him if he did that. He gives ideas, snippets of melody here and there for songwriters to flesh out. It’s by far the best approach from him and one that continues to give him success.

It was more a comment on people who want to call it shit but would rather Liam wrote it and call it shit. There have been many criticisms of the record by many people that have been eloquently and intelligently put whether I agree or not. My post was aimed the usual suspects who are going to make hundreds of posts about a record and a man they don’t actually like.

There's a big difference between a piece of art with a little shit in the middle and a piece of shit with a little art in the middle... If you don't recognize a little art then it's just one big piece of shit. The latter was the case with most of Beady Eye, Liam's solo work is the former.

Wyatt should just have joined Liam and form another band and all these arguments wouldn’t exist.
Brand it like Liam Gallagher’s army men. Or Liam Gallagher’s ono band.
Basically they’re lying to the people who don’t dig into credits and look for clues about who did what. Many many people think he’s done it all himself. That’s what is wrong with the branding.
Other than that it’s a quite good record.
