I was 15. My mates were all 15. We use to hang out in the park kicking a ball about and listening to oasis. The nostalgia is just crazy. What you've captured here is timeless. I'll be 40 soon...forever young.
Mackenzie Gordon-Smih im andy by the way, aww fucking he'll mate don't. I'm already balling just listening to it as its my favourite as well and then I read your comment. So sorry man...your mate will ALWAYS live forever.....
I chose 5 piano instrumentals to be played while I waited among family and friends with my brother by my side as best man, for my bride to arrive. This piece was one of those I chose, the effect it had on that room was immense, the anticipation and the weight of the moment was felt by all. She looked amazing. Valentine's day 2016, the day we slid away to chase the sun.
I realized I've listened to this rendition for thirteen years now. It feels more like an old friend greeting me everytime. At 30 my eyes still water without shame. Thank you.
If I may just say... this is one of the exact reasons I love getting lost on youtube.. because you just never stop stumbling across amazing things like this.. very very well done.
I’m 24 and love Oasis. My Dad used to love them back in the day and watching/listening to this brings a tear to my eye. It reminds me that he’s getting older and not here forever. Always grateful tho. Thank you for the post. Much love. ❤
This is my favourite oasis song and my favourite of the 3 versions you have posted. It just beats supersonic. Some might say is awesome too. Great work mate.
@themusicbod Both has been bought now and is constantly playing on my computer or ipod! This is great stuff... I've listened sooo much to the original songs that I've almost gone sick of it, but you've just breathed some new life back into them. Incredible, I can't wait 'til you release more Stone Roses songs or other songs by other bands I really enjoy. Cheers and thanks!
Playing it this way makes me come in contact with emotions as the loneliness I've felt throughout my childhood. I don't know about you other fans but sometimes I wished there was a finer studio version of Slide Away cuz the album one is too noisy, I mean the song is more beautiful than what it is rock, roughly put. Noel's acoustic live versions are among the best Oasis clips to watch on this site
Dude, when is Melancholy Rock n' roll part 3 ready??? I bought both parts on I tunes the moment I discovered them. I use it all the time in the background when I'm writing. PLEASE, keep this going, because it's so great! All the best man! Cheers. R.
Well done my man :) You bought tears to my eyes with that rendition of Slide Away. Do you have an audio I can up-load from Lime wire??? would luv to have the collection on my i-pod
Really wonderfull !!! I play the piano for 6 years now and there is so many times that I'm not feeling like that! Could you send me these partitions please? Sorry for the language but I'm French.
Fair comment, I wasn't trying to sound too heavy, but don't think they'd ever re-record their early stuff, hey it'd be nice if they'd get back together and record anything at the moment right? I think Noel singing over this would be really moving though
Slide away and give it all you've got My today fell in from the top I dream of you and all the things you say I wonder where you are now? Hold me down all the world's asleep Need you now you've knocked me off my feet I dream of you and we talk of growing old But you said please don't! Slide in baby together we'll fly I've tried praying but I don't know just what you're saying to me Now that you're mine We'll find a way Of chasing the sun Let me be the one that shines with you In the morning we don't know what to do Two of a kind We'll find a way To do what we've done Let me be the one who shines with you And we can slide away Slide away Slide away Away Slide away, and give it all you've got My today, fell in from the top I dream of you and all the things you say I wonder where you are now? Slide in baby together we'll fly I've tried praying and I know just what you're saying to me Now that you're mine We'll find a way Of chasing the sun Let me be the one that shines with you In the morning we don't know what to do We are two of a kind We'll find a way To do what we've done Oh, let me be the one that shines with you And we can slide away Slide away Slide away Slide away Slide away Slide away Slide away Slide away Slide away Slide away Slide away Slide away Slide away Slide away Slide away Slide away Slide away Slide away
Let me say that i truly love you for this song. I have been playing piano for 12 years and this song is inspiration enough for 12 more years. Is there any way i could get the sheet music for it?
im a massive massive oasis fanatic, name a give away lol? and ive recently started learning the guitar. i think that ur covers r amazing the dynamics everthing. would love a cd if poss? wll buy 1. chrz x
You know what I'd like, if after Noel makes his solo album he then return to Liam to record a remake of some oldies before taking on a new Oasis album. Like re-record tunes like Slide Away and Live Forever with a new finer sound, they can make it in a fresh inventive style and Liam could show the world how his vocals is the shit again.. sigh a fan can dream
Thanks for kind comments. I am arranging a digital release for the 4 oasis tracks plus my versions of "The Masterplan" and "Do you know what i mean". i will post info when they are ready to download.
Well for one, I don't think Slide Away reminds me of "happy" I said it made me reconnect with my loneliness. Secondly if Noel performs it live acousticly he might aswell record it that way. I didn't say anybody thought the album version was unsatisfying, I suggested a remake for the sake of old classics they've been performing stagewise since. Up In The Sky for ex was recorded by Noel in an acoustic way outside the album release as a B-side, nobody is saying any version is better than the other.
like oasis is doing remixes now, you can do their b-sides. You can do their singles in piano version. I would like to hear im outta time like this instead of that crap remix,I mean, you're amzing! you have talent!
its amazing but please record it better, the peaks and the hiss are wrecking my head....like i isaid its great even with those problems, imagine what it be like without it...hopefully you do coz its a great version
