Think of a Number
Dead to the World
There She Blows!

Tidy little album. Much props to the final version of We’re Gonna Get There In The End. I see this as the roll credits part of the album just like Dead in the Water was on his last LP.

[goletitout1986]

For me it's:

Dead to the world.
Open the door, see what you find.
Easy now.

I'm also really enjoying I'm not giving up tonight but my overall favourite may well be Don't stop.

I've only listened to Pretty Boy, Easy Now and Dead to the World. Out of the three I only liked Pretty Boy. In fact I loved Pretty Boy.
How is that song last in the poll? The other two tracks sound like passable Oasis B-Sides. Ehhh

[World71R]

Think of a Number, Dead to the World and There She Blows

Number four switches between "Open the Door, See What You Find," "Easy Now" and "Council Skies"

Love is a Rich Man is the least best, but it's fun. The rest of the album is quality stuff. Pretty Boy is a good tune.

Rankings in order: Not my favourite of Noel's work, feels like he's on autopilot for much of it. But note that Easy Now, which was immediately dismissed by myself, has grown into my favourite. Despite its lumpen production, the melody and lyrics are of the spirit of Noel's earlier songwriting and has a wonderful over the top guitar solo. With faster paced, raucous, Owen Morris-esque crashing production and Liam's snarl, it would be a good comeback single.

--Very Good--

Easy Now
Trying To Find A World...
I'm Not Giving Up Tonight
Dead To The World
Pretty Boy

--Good--
Think of A Number

--Okay/Average--
Open The Door
Council Skies

--Poor--
Love Is A Rich Man

--Very Poor--
There She Blows

[AubreyOasis]

For me, only 'Think of A Number' is really among his top 5-10 solo songs considered individually, but as an album I love it lot from start to finish. Curiously now I like 'Dead to the World' less and 'Council Skies' more than when they were released

-- Outstanding ---
Think of A Number

-- Very Good --
Council Skies
We're gonna get there in the end

I'm not giving up
Dead to the world
There she blows
Open the Door
Trying to Find
Easy Now

Pretty boy
Love is a rich man
