Curious how divisive this one is.

It's a 5.5 or 6 out of 10 for me. Nice enough, but definitely my least favourite on the album.

8-9/10 for me. I'm an absolute sucker for a Liam sung ballad though. Saying that, genuinely think it's a fantastic melody. Chorus gets me every time. Great vocal by Liam also.

It’s a step below Once and two below “Nothing Nowhere” for me, as I think the melody is a bit inferior to the others. However, I can’t figure out why an LG fan would dislike his vocals on it, but to each their own. His voice is main the reason I dig it and might be his best solo vocal performance (especially the live version), in my opinion. Power galore.

Beautiful song and I don't get the cheesy vibe that FWIW gave me. I'd put it on par with Once.

8, I've only heard the live version from the Rockfield doc, but it made me tear up because it felt like it was speaking directly to me.

Melody apart, i have to say the words are Liam Gallagher's definition now. Its a ballad but its so powerful. Wow. I didn't think he could do a song who matched once. Now i put them in same tier. And its a big surpise to me.

I adore it. Really captures what Oasis anthems were at their best, Liam's range tested to the max, pure emotion and universal themes that most can relate to but the difference with Liam's lyrics are that they're far more obvious, less mention of sinks full of fishes and other abstract nonsense.
I've not seen a song capture that famous Oasis power-ballad feeling this well since maybe SCYHO (not saying that makes it a better or worse product per say). Its what FWIW was trying to do but wasn't as effective perhaps due to it being overly cheesy, produced and thus less sincere. Liam's voice can do much more now so its maybe the first time in a long while that we've heard these beats hit. Its an absolute treat to hear him back on this kind of form.

Its good but I prefer "Once" by a mile. So ehow the vocal delivery is not, how it could have been.

Once so much better, surprised it's even being compared.
Once doesn't give off any cheesy vibes at all.
TGFGU more like FWIW, more a fair comparison. Both a bit cringe where some Oasis/Liam fans won't take to, both a bit divisive with the fanbase.
Once just brilliant, mostly nearly all fans would like it.

Maybe 8/10 but that is more really good, not great.

Nah once was defo more cringey, "clean the pewel and send the kids the schewel" alone makes that so + the middle 8 section particularly live. I'm an Oasis/Liam fan and I'm taking it just fine, seems to be the majority opinion too. I wouldn't say the FWIW comparison is fair at all since that was so touched up compared to this, which sounds much more like Liam's real voice. Most fans will like this too I'm sure!

I voted great but it's certainly not one of my favourites from the album and I still prefer Once by a mile.

Rolo, have you reviewed the whole album? Interested to read.

Like usual I’m with consensus here… 9/10
Much better than FWIW. Simples.
