Noel Gallagher about that “15-minute real-time conversation” with David Bowie…

In his latest interview with Hot Press, Noel Gallagher talked about a 15-minute real-time conversation with David Bowie.

He told: “Once, and then again virtually. He won a Brit Award for, I dunno, being the Best David Bowie of Alltime, couldn’t be there and asked me and Kate Moss to say something on his behalf, which we did. The next day I’m recovering on the sofa going, ‘Owwwwwwwwww, me head!’ – I hadn’t got back ’til nine in the morning – and get an email saying, ‘Hi, it’s David. Thanks for the shout out the other night.’ I reply going, ‘Fucking nice one, man, blah blah blah’ and we have a kind of 15-minute real-time conversation. I’m thinking, ‘Wow, David Bowie’s in a coffee shop in New York somewhere talking to me. I can live with this!’
“I came downstairs one day and my missus, Sara, said, ‘David Bowie’s got a new single out.’ I’m like, ‘Are you sure it wasn’t ‘Heroes’?’ She shoots back: ‘I know what fucking ‘Heroes’ sounds like and it isn’t that!’ Nothing will match the jaw-dropping moment of going online and playing ‘The Stars (Are Out Tonight)’ for the first time. I’m lying on my bed listening to it, get to the end and think, ‘Hang on, it can’t be that good, I’ve got to listen to it again!’ I must have played the album 20 days in a row when it came out. I obsessed over it.”
