More quotes by Noel Gallagher
I remember the 70s constantly being winter in Manchester and the Irish community in Manchester closing ranks because of the IRA bombings in Birmingham and Manchester, and you know the bin-workers' strike, all wrapped up in it... They were violent times. Violence at home and violence at football matches.
Noel Gallagher
To be quite honest, John Lennon had questionable politics. There was a flip side. He was all peace and love, but he was a very violent character.
Noel Gallagher
Fame is something that is bestowed upon you because of success. Success is something you have to chase.
Noel Gallagher
What's problematic about playing stadiums and driving around in private jets and drinking champagne at 8 o'clock in the morning? What's wrong with that? I haven't got a problem with that. I can't fathom why people would.
Noel Gallagher
If I had a gun, I'd shoot a hole into the sun and love would burn this city down for you.
Noel Gallagher
Twenty years from now, will we listen to Lady Gaga? No. She might think she is making a stand for the freaks and the weirdos. But they're not going to have any decent music to play, are they?
Noel Gallagher
There are periods where you think, What am I doing? or What am I doing it for? that's a more scary question. I've made s---loads of money, I've left my mark in music, why am I still doing this?, and it takes a while to answer that question.
Noel Gallagher
The thing about bands is everybody wants to be the next Oasis, and that doesn't mean slogging it out around the toilet [gigs], it means, Give me the check, I need to go to the Levis shop and I need a 1960s Gibson.
Noel Gallagher
Every album I've ever been involved in, on the day that it came out I believed in it.
Noel Gallagher
I'm a massive fan of the Stones, and I don't think anybody should deny them the right to carry on making music. I just wish they wouldn't wear leggings.
Noel Gallagher
There was a euphoria in the music and the way it was delivered, and, as the crowds started to get bigger, it fed off itself until it became less about the band and more about being with all those people, jumping up and down, drunk to the music.
Noel Gallagher
I've got my own style on the guitar, sure, and I play rhythm in a certain way, and I use certain inflections. People have said that to me, and I understand it.
Noel Gallagher
We live a dying dream, If you know what I mean...
Noel Gallagher
I do think my old fella wasn't much of a... I don't remember him ever being a 'dad' dad. He was too busy working. It was a hard life, man.
Noel Gallagher
Kylie Minogue is just a demonic little idiot as far as I'm concerned. She gets cool dance producers to work with her for some bizarre reason, I don't know why. She doesn't even have a good name. It's a stupid name, Kylie, I just don't get it.
Noel Gallagher
I don't dislike rappers or hip-hop or people who like it. I went to the Def Jam tour in Manchester in the '80s when rap was inspirational. Public Enemy were awesome. But it's all about status and bling now, and it doesn't say anything to me.
Noel Gallagher
We were able to provide housing to all who need it. We've had incredibly generous offers from alumni for housing.
Noel Gallagher
Just because you sell lots of records it doesn't mean to say you're any good. Look at Phil Collins.
Noel Gallagher
I know there's bands that might write something that sounds like The Smiths, and they'll go, 'Oh, it sounds like The Smiths, we've got to make it sound not like The Smiths.'
Noel Gallagher
Phil Collins sold five times as many records as I did. Does that make him nearly as influential as I am? Nope.
