There were quite few gems on his first album. Planning to put it on heavy rotation later on today. Plus I'd better get through it before the new PJ album is released!

yes, much preferred first solo record over beady eye.

beady eye feels less like a katy perry album though
"Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"
And apart from its “unsophisticated” nature, what does he think of the new music from younger brother Liam (with whom he is, of course, engaged in an almighty feud)?
“I’ve heard Shockwave – five people wrote that song by all accounts. Don’t you think that’s amazing?” comes the sarky reply. “I’ve not heard this new one that’s about me.”
You mean tuneful nostalgia-fest singalong One of Us? It’s quite moving. There’s a line where Liam sings, “you said we’d live forever”.
Oh, really? Ha ha! Well, I’m sure the other four people were moved. I wondered if they had pictures of me in the studio when they were writing that shit… But isn’t there an Oasis line in all of his songs? I remember once in the Oasis days, he’d been up the studio on his own and every line in the song was the title of an Oasis song. It was some incidental blues nonsense. It went: “You said we were gonna live forever, and now that things are getting better…” And I asked him what it was called. And you know what it was called? Untitled, ha ha!

On the subject of songwriting, I recently interviewed Liam, and he said his dream in Oasis was to write with you, and have writing credits that said “Gallagher-Gallagher”. It was quite sweet, actually.
Well, there could have been “Gallagher-Gallagher”, but he wasn’t into it. But it’s down to that thing: if you all turn up at a session and I’ve written 26 songs, and everyone else has got fuck-all, and you’re sat with a producer who’s actually got to wrap this album up within three months, what’s he gonna do? Sit around watching everybody acting like a chimp’s tea party? Is he fuck. He’s gonna go: “Well, [Noel’s] got it all written already.”

Liam’s comeback is pretty fun to watch. He’s playing big arenas that Oasis used to play. He’s killing it out there.
I love that both he and Noel play arenas, cricket grounds and soccer stadiums in the UK but I get to see them in theaters in Chicago. Hope he comes around in 2020.

HAVE YOU FUCKERS LISTENED TO LIAM LIVE AT THE RITZ YET?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!
Noel's new single, Wandering Star, is the best song he's released for quite some time.
