Customer Reviews One of the best Oasis singles out there! Go Let It Out! was the first single released from Giants. Standing On The Shoulder Of Giants might not be a great Oasis album, but the singles released from the 2000 effort deliver. The song went straight in at Number 1 in the UK Charts, while hardly appearing on the Modern Rock chart in the US. The song is heavily influenced by The Beatles' Strawberry Fields Forever with the use of a melotron. The song has a brilliant melody, and a laid back Liam vocal duty, in addition to some of Noel's nonsensical lyrics. The b-sides are really the highlights of the single. Let's All Make Believe is one of the best ballads Oasis have ever recorded, a dark and elusive track that is quite touching in its lyrics about being friends despite a fallout (a message probably meant for Bonehead and Guigsy, as Giants was the last album they were to be a part of before quitting the band). Cigarettes in Hell is another mellow track sung by Noel. Go let It Out is one of the best Oasis singles out there! Recommended A . Go buy this single There isn't a song on the 10-track album that can touch either one of these stellar b-sides. It is my opinion that the three songs on this single are the three best songs released during the Standing On The Shoulder Of Giants' era. But what else would you expect from a band whose best 'album' was a b-sides compilation? While being the first, "Go Let It Out" is easily the best single, although both "Let's All Make Believe" and "(As Long As They've Got) Cigarettes In Hell" outdo it and certainly have potential to become two of your favorite Oasis tracks of all-time. No kidding. Both b-sides are on the slow side, with Noel's voice being the focus of the songs. "Let's All Make Believe" uses its title to make some timeless lyrics, such as 'let's all make believe/that we're still friends/and we like each other', which is as pertinent as it is humorous. With "Cigarettes", Noel's voice and the title are again used to carry the song; as Noel claims 'I don't mind not goin' to heaven/as long as they've got cigarettes in hell'. Oddly enough, the best part of the song might be the sound of an igniting lighter and the fading coughs in the end. As far as "Go Let It Out". . . don't buy this single if you've only heard (and want) that one song. Start with the actual album and decide from there if you're still interested; there were a number of Oasis fans who were disappointed with Standing On The Shoulder Of Giants. In all reality, though, I listen to this single more than the album itself. So I don't see any reason why you shouldn't buy this. I got this single as part of an Oasis singles lot on an online auction site (that featured 14 other Oasis singles), and besides, maybe, the "Whatever" single, this was the best one. Go let it in. Great single! It's Oasis back in top form, with a catchy verse, solid bassline, and great production. This was really a perfect choice as a first single for Standing on the Shoulder of Giants. The real gem here though is Let's All Make Believe, a haunting song that should have made the album. But then again, Oasis is just about the best b-side group out there, always packing their singles with quality extras. The Noel-song As Long As They've Got Cigarettes is less catchy but solid nonetheless, making this single a must have for fans. Great single from a great single band. .
