Oasis fans make tour prediction about band's 'best live song'
Oasis fans believe one particular song makes for the band's most epic live performance ever, but the chances of it gracing the setlist at their highly anticipated reunion concert seem pretty slim. Oasis fans have been speculating about the potential set and reminiscing on Reddit, particularly about one killer track unlikely to be played when the group hits the stage again.
Noel Gallagher and his brother Liam are gearing up to perform together for the first time in over a decade come July. While the hit-packed setlist is eagerly awaited by many, there's chatter among the faithful regarding the inclusion of the band's more obscure bangers.
A passionate fan wrote on Reddit: "Honestly, I think Gas Panic! at Wembley 2000 is the best live song Oasis ever did. The whole vibe is unreal-dark, trippy, powerful. That intro alone feels like you're about to witness something big, and then Liam comes in and just absolutely owns it.
"When he sings 'an hour to sing for his soul'... man, it's majestic. Gives me chills every time. He doesn't just sing it-he means it. You can feel the weight in his voice.
"It's one of those moments where everything hits perfectly: his delivery, the band's energy, the crowd going mad.
"It also shows how good Standing on the Shoulder of Giants material could be live-seriously underrated stuff."
However, some ardent followers are quick to point out that given lead vocalist Liam Gallagher's evolving singing voice, the triumphant return of this specific number might not happen.
One enthusiast praised the song, writing: "Proper stadium rock song that. Liam's voice was just good enough at this point in mid-2000 (nowhere near as good as early-2000) to deliver an ethereal vocal performance at that first Wembley gig.
"The visuals on the tele, the intro, the harmony, the atmosphere of a proper stadium gig on a hallowed turf. I mean, you can't go wrong whatsoever."
Another fan chimed in: "I know the shows themselves were rough to get through, but I was always surprised that the live album Familiar To Millions got as much flack as it did.
"For me it's pretty much flawless, dripping with attitude. I can't remember the last time I listened to the studio version of Gas Panic, after hearing this live version."
Meanwhile, another commented: "This is a top career moment for them. I know that the audio is spliced with the Yokohama gigs all over the place, but this song and performance in particular is probably my favourite of theirs overall."
Separately, debates amongst the fans suggest it's a toss-up whether Gas Panic will be included in setlists, noticing the track has made sporadic appearances in some of Liam Gallagher's solo performances.
Another naysayer claimed there's "zero chance" of the track's return, hinting that Noel Gallagher might "veto" the song from future gigs.

Scots reveal their 'favourite Scottish albums' of all time by iconic bands
Featuring Franz Ferdinand, Frightened Rabbit, and more. People in Scotland have shared their "favourite Scottish albums" of all time. Different Scots chose albums across a wide range of genres as the best the country has to offer. Scotland's music may not be as instantly recognisable around the world as its whisky or cuisine, but many legendary musicians have hailed from the country. Countless iconic singers and bands have called Scotland home over the years. On Saturday, July 12, a Reddit user asked the people of Scotland to share their top albums by Scottish acts. Writing on the forum's Scotland community, the user stated: "Post your favourite Scottish album." Despite being posted just two days ago, the question has since received more than 170 responses. Music lovers quickly shared their favourite Scottish albums, both old and new. The Scottish album the original poster picked as their favourite is Tiny Changes: A Celebration Of The Midnight Organ Fight by Frightened Rabbit. The album was released in 2019 to celebrate the 10th anniversary of The Midnight Organ Fight by Selkirk indie rock band Frightened Rabbit. Tiny Changes: A Celebration Of The Midnight Organ Fight includes cover versions of songs on the original album by various musicians and bands. It features a number of Scottish acts such as Biffy Clyro, The Twilight Sad, and Lauren Mayberry of synth-pop group CHVRCHES. The top comment on the post lists Music Has the Right to Children by Boards of Canada as the best Scottish album. Despite their name, Boards of Canada are a Scottish electronic music duo originating from Edinburgh. Music Has the Right to Children was released in 1998, and earned widespread acclaim. While the album saw limited chart success, it is often considered to be a landmark of electronic music. Meanwhile, another Reddit user chose Heaven or Las Vegas by Cocteau Twins as their pick for the best Scottish album. Cocteau Twins were a Scottish rock and dream pop band that formed in Grangemouth in 1979, known for lead singer Elizabeth Fraser's unique vocals. Heaven or Las Vegas came out in 1990, and reached number seven on the UK Albums chart. The album also received very positive reviews, and is widely considered to be one of the greatest albums of all time. A different user chose another Cocteau Twins album as their choice for the best Scottish album. They selected Blue Bell Knoll, which released in 1988 before Heaven or Las Vegas. Blue Bell Knoll is not as well remembered amongst most music fans as the band's following release. However, the album still received positive reviews on its release and reached number 15 on the UK Albums chart. Another album chosen by one Scot as their favourite is Franz Ferdinand's self-titled debut album. Franz Ferdinand are a band that formed in Glasgow in 2002, with their first album featuring their signature hit 'Take Me Out'. Franz Ferdinand peaked at number three on the UK Albums chart and number two on the Scottish Albums chart upon its release in 2004. 'Take Me Out' has since garnered more than one billion streams on Spotify. Other albums named by Scots as their favourite include The Bones of What You Believe by CHVRCHES, Screamadelica by alternative rock band Primal Scream, and If You're Feeling Sinister by Glasgow indie pop band Belle and Sebastian—with all three groups originating from Glasgow. Elsewhere, other Reddit users chose This Is the Story by Edinburgh duo The Proclaimers and Psychocandy by East Kilbride alternative rock band The Jesus and Mary Chain.

Only those with the very best eyesight can spot the kitten hiding in the leaves
A brain teaser posted on Reddit has left most people stumped as they struggled to find the feline - but can you spot the tiny kitten hiding among the leaves in the picture? Stimulating your brain is widely recognised as a way to boost cognitive function, improve memory, and sharpen focus and concentration. Some even suggest that regular mental exercises could postpone the onset of dementia symptoms. Many people turn to brain teasers and puzzles to keep their grey matter ticking over, and it's believed that adding a time constraint can enhance the benefits even more. Not only are brain teasers entertaining – they're an excellent means of engaging your mind and encouraging lateral thinking. The latest brain teaser to baffle the internet is a real head-scratcher, challenging even those with eagle eyes. Hidden within an image full of leaves is a tiny kitten waiting to be discovered. The challenge claims that only individuals with a high IQ can spot all the hidden cats in this picture. After being posted on Reddit, the image has left many scratching their heads, unable to locate the elusive kitty. A few sharp-eyed users have succeeded, but it appears to be a rare feat. Why not set a timer and see how quickly you can find the kitten? Be warned, though – it's not easy. Think you're up to the task? Get set and go! Have you spotted it? Well done if so! If you're still searching, one user offered a helpful hint: "Look for the other eye among black fur!" Another provided a more precise tip: "Go to slightly left of the middle and keep going down until you see the eyes. Once you see it it's impossible to miss. Hello Kitty!". Reflecting on the image, one individual commented: "Human visual perception is weird. After scanning, I was able to locate the aberration in the leaves reasonably quickly, but it took a few seconds of processing to actually see and orient the cat. It's neat to see survival instincts at work – my brain could figure out 'something's wrong' faster than it could discern exactly what."
