Well, this reference is pretty obvious…
I’m gonna stand the test of time Like Beatles and Stones
Beady Eye was a band formed by Liam Gallagher of Oasis with former members of Oasis. This song was written by Liam Gallagher and it was on the Different Gear, Still Speeding album released in 2011.
They recycled the Who’s My Generation riff to good effect. They defiantly have that mid-sixties mod thing going on.
Beady Eye released two albums. Different Gear, Still Speeding (#3 UK) in 2011 and BE (#2 UK) in 2013. In 2014 Beady Eye broke up because of the failure to gain popularity in the US according to Liam Gallagher.

That first Beady Eye album was quite good – it was basically an Oasis record minus Noel. Which is a big minus, but still…

It does have their sound… I love the “sound” of the album… the echo and the sixties feel.

Sounds ok. I’ve heard OF Beady Eye but not heard them, surprising given how big Oasis was. Like their authentically retro-looking cover you show there!

I know… again I’m big in the “sound” of a record… I like what I’ve heard off the album. It does have a sixties sound

I am thinking about using this theme of songs that reference another group on my Song Lyric Sunday challenge, as I think there are plenty of them to choose from.
