Getting-Better-Man.

Oasis.
Heathen Chemistry compared to Be Here Now.
Although madaming singles na magaganda talaga sa BHN, as an album HC is more satisfying to listen to. Ewan ko lang ha, kase the whole weekend, yun lang pinapakinggan ko. Eh yun din lang kase nakasaksak sa discman ko. Hehe.
But anyway, the reason is ang hahaba ng tracks ng BHN! Nakakainis, parang instead of loving the song for what it is, it gets pretty annoying sa sobrang tagal matapos.
I like songs straight and most of the time, short. Like how The Beatles used to do it. Or how The Strokes hit home with their tunes.
So compared to BHN, short and sweet 'tong mas recent. Tapos mas relaxed.
Sabe nga ni Sangkay Mickey, yung BHN, magulo yung pagkaka-sunod-sunod ng songs.
Mabagal tas biglang bibilis tas mabagal ulet. Pero yung HC, tama lang ang bwelo.
What I like about BHN though is yung pagkakadugtong-dugtong. Lalo yung tema, iisa.
But then again, ganun din sa HC eh. At mas evident pa yung Beatles influence dito.
Listen to 'Songbird', 'Born On A Different Cloud', 'Better Man' and you'll be glad to hear Lennon being alive again. Soothing.


Be Here Now
Released 21st August 1997


Heathen Chemistry

I can't wait 'til the new Oasis album comes out.
Salamat, Sangkay Tating for letting me love 'em.
