Nobody can do a Neil Young song like Neil does. And I've never been much of an Oasis fan. But this is, by far, the best Neil Young cover I've ever heard!
@@emperornortoni2871 Oh, I've heard them. Just never liked them. 😜 Edit: Actually, let me rephrase that... The band is good, I just don't like Vedder's voice.
A cover is supposed to be an artists take on the original..This is a great cover by a great band! The Original is supreme and shouldnt be compared..instead comment on the quality of the cover! We need bands like Oasis who can bring back RockNRoll for generations who have no clue of the great music that ruled the 60's and 70's and are just immersed in all this popshit commercial music!
+Pranav Chitanand Neil wrote this song for Noel come on now, the rest of what you said I take my hat off, but come on now be real, Noels version blows Neil Young's original out the fucking water like a sleeping fucking battle ship in a pond on a sunday afternoon, don't be fucking sentimental now be real buddy, be honest now!!........
Oasis' version misses the harrowing harmonica. Neil also originated a 'grunge' sound before grunge was even a term. There's no comparison that Neil Young wins here, but Oasis' version is still fantastic!
Yet without Neil Young's song, Oasis wouldn't have a version to perform. But I doubt either of us will convince the other here, so good evening, and all the best.
Like it when Noel shows his great taste in music but i bet almost no one in the crowd have ever listened to Neil Young. "BETTER TO BURN OUT THAN FADE AWAY" is one of the greatest lines in any song ever
Thank you Noel Gallagher for creating music that uplifts me whenever I'm feeling down, for letting me know it's okay to be myself, and for giving me the happiness I've always needed
Won't be played out purely for the sake if pandering to a society of generic and unoriginal tosspots who care not for talent so much as they do about fame* But maybe I just fail to see the irony...
I love this cause. I'm a Canadian songwriter, and Noel is my biggest influence. And heres Noel a UK songwriter, doing a cover of one of his influences, a Canadian songwriter. I hope one day to cover one of Noels tunes and do it the same justice. Rock on Noel
I'm a huge fan of Neil Young and a huge fan of Oasis. Noel and the boys did a great job. Rather surprised that they pulled it off so well, and I'm happy they did!
Glimmers of Noel the front man and premonitions of things to come. This version is good, but the fact that they chose to cover it ... that's genius. "Better to burn out than to fade away..." Neil Young wrote it in 1979, but it might as well have been about Oasis 30 years later.
R n roll is here to stay and boy did oasis make sure they kept it going with a bang and lg is keeping it going and his voice is back.this cover is heavy riffs so i think its brilliant.i wonder where liam was at this point.....with sally and cat in the hat having some alka seltzer.lol.defo coz his attitude is different when he returns.what a gig and the album a documentary are well worth watching/listening to.oasis at peak were a no brainier.seen the loch lomond and got given ticket sat night,gig next day i thot il be fine.i should not have been driving that day but I couldn’t miss it.1days notice and i was already hammered when the others asked,the driver pulled out at last min.glad i went.best gig in my life.feel for folk who missed them,boy did u miss out.they knew back in 96 how to rock a crowd.got my ticketcin frame-prized possessions.oasis legends
Noel actually smashes this. Yeah it's a slightly different take on the original, but Noel is a Huge Young fan and it's with complete homage, You can tell he cared about this cover Fucking awesome and you can see how much he loves it!
Great to see you hear man. I think were both having a moment here. Its such ferocious moving song. When your gone mate you cant come back. When your outa the blue mate
+Vince Ritchie I know mate and u did well in correcting me. I was thinking about UK bands in general and Blur came up, obviously. My bad. Thanks again mate ;)
great cover, but I hate it when people are all like "eeh so much better than the original." Well of course any talented band like Oasis will be able to add their own spin to an already great song and it'll sound amazing. 90% of the work has already been done. Anyway, it has a completely different feel to it than Neil's. my personal favorite is Neil's "out of the blue" version (or whichever one is acoustic). No band would be able to improve on that version or have as much feel.
Brilliant song and executed admirably by Noel. Well, what can I say, always excellent and glad I saw Oasis do this- come on boys, please bury the hatchet! We really miss you!
this is how a mate of mine got into neil young.when i played him the original he still preferred the oasis version but after a while he was asking to borrow a few albums off me.we have seen neil young together twice now and both times were the gigs of our lives...
Gary Mansfield how sad man you must be to be so agressive. I don't say "this one is better than this one", i just say "i prefer", that's my choice, and i don't understand what my age has to do with it
Went to Murryfield for this tour and they were bloody fantastic. Was a great gig and so glad I went..even if I did get jumped on outside the stadium by a load of Newcastle fans for wearing a Sunderland shirt! One of the best I went too
+Alec Schmutte Don't get me wrong I like Neil Young I think he is great, a musical force an all that, but come on you can't be serious can't you feel the power of Noel, it almost sounds like Neil Young made this song for Noel and said I am putting this song out there for a musical power house to one day come along and do it real justice, Neil Young's version is good but he sings it like he has given up on mankind, Noel sings it from the roof tops baby, he sings it from fucking mount everest you know what I am saying, Neil Young was never as successful as Noel you know why, coz Noel is simply a better artist lets be honest buddy come on now!!!........buddy you have got to at least keep it fucking real when you even attempt to step up to this argument, come on now!
+Kal-El Kent You can't be serious. Mr. Young plays it with raw emotion while this is just stereotypical oasis sound. I like Oasis, but they don't compare
Aaron Galifryiansupermodel Cant you hear the sheer power house of Noels vocal, come on geezer, I like Neil Young but he is a weak singer there is no comparison, maybe you like it weak coz you just cant't handle the power buddy....lol
Muito boa a homenagem feita a muitos artistas quê já se foram dessa vida aqui na Terra, mas quê deixaram suas lindas músicas vivas em nossas memórias! Essa música na interpretação do Neil Young, também ficou muito bonita!
+CBDM777 Bruv keep your filthy silly mouth firmly shut, Neil Young wrote this song for Noel, you fucking mad bruv?....lol........take your fucking ear plugs out or better still go clean all the god damn wax from your ears lol coz you aint hearing right buddy..............
+Kal-El Kent Not really, although it DOES suggest that I'm an actual musician rather than someone who thinks commenting on every comment on a YT thread is a good use of their time.
