(BBC)

NOEL GALLAGHER was the new guest to perform with the BBC Concert Orchestra as part of their Radio 2 Piano Room sessions. Among new material he played a cover of Joy Division classic Love Will Tear Us Apart.

Why that one?

NG: “You can’t get out the BBC without doing a cover. When they asked me to do this I was like ‘I’m afraid I’m all Bob Dylan-ed out… I don’t know what to do. I would play this song, this version of it, at home down the years. When they asked me to do it, I was like ‘How can I get away with that?’ Because it’s such an iconic [song] and, being from Manchester… well, this is going to be tricky. But now I’ve got my own studio, I went and did a little demo of it and I was like ‘You know what? I think I might be able to pull this off.’ So we’re going to do ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’ by the Divs.”

NOEL GALLAGHER – New Not Looking Back In Anger Album ‘COUNCIL SKIES’ Out Today

Posted on by JL

2 June 2023

NOEL GALLAGHER and his HIGH FLYING BIRDS
are gearing up for their 4th full lenght, entitled
COUNCIL SKIES out today.

Noel G.: “The album goes back to the beginning, living under the council skies.
Daydreaming, looking up at the sky and wondering about what life could be.”.

Rolling Stone UK says: “True to his word, here is an album that takes stock of the thrilling journey that led him from humble Mancunian roots to global fame. The result is some of the best songs of his post-Oasis career. Gallagher proves why he’s been able to forge a consistently compelling solo career.” Score: 4/5.

TUTV: I always thought about NG as a melancholic boy looking over his shoulder
and wondering what ever happened in his youth (Don’t Look Back In Anger, Live Forever, Whatever, AKA… What A Life, Stop The Clocks). And I thought/think right as his new one is almost a full retrospective LP wrapped in psychedelic pop tunes. And that’s what he
always did best and still does. Writing top tunes, verse/chorus/verse/middle-eight/chorus, that appeal to millions. And one more thing, his great voice even gets better as he gets older. He doesn’t need Oasis.

Singles/clips: Open The Door, See What You Find / Council Skies / Pretty Boy

Here They Go Again – NOEL GALLAGHER Calls Brother LIAM A Coward Over OASIS Reunion Talk

Posted on by JL

The brothers are at it again. Noel says Liam is a coward when it comes
to talk for real about an Oasis reunion. And Liam in return says among
other things that Noel hates Oasis‘ fans.

– NOEL –

– LIAM –

Regarding Liam‘s tweet.

Note 1: Back in 1995 Noel said he wished Damon Albarn would catch AIDS because
he had a fling with Liam‘s girlfriend at the time. With a lot of cocaine up his nose, Noel
made that terrifically stupid thing. He excused himself afterward, blaming the drugs.

Note 2: Back in May 2017, 22 people died and many were injured in an Islamic terror attack in Manchester (hometown of the Gallaghers). Only 8 days later a massive fundraising concert was organised featuring Liam among others. He reproached Noel for not showing up.

PS: Shut up, get up and do a huge OASIS reunion tour, you childish bullies.

Posted on by JL

Manchester’s rock hero NOEL GALLAGHER
is a natural-born music junkie and gig addict
who absorbed indie music of his hometown
long before Oasis.

He just uploaded a playlist on Spotify named MADE IN MANCHESTER
with indie oldies from bands such as Inspiral Carpets, Yargo, New FADs,
World Of Twist, Section25 and Dub Sex. And as humble as he is he starts
with his own new single called Pretty Boy.

Here we go.
