In his latest interview with American Songwriter, Noel Gallagher talked about Oasis and what the band did, and he said:
“Iโm going to talk purely in British terms right now, but I donโt think any band will ever do what Oasis did, in the size and terms and scale of it. But there will come a point where a full generation of kids will be fucking sick to death of modern rock.โ
Heโs had enough of people making records โin their fucking bedroomโ โ thereโs nothing sacred, or privileged about the process anymore. You donโt have to earn the right to record music.
โIf anything, we were the last great band of the analog era,โ he says. โOur music was the last great gathering before the internet.โ
He then talked about Beady Eye and Liam, the material they had and the songs they performed: “I did have a little laugh to myself. Because those guys in the band were very quick to promote their own music, and very quick after we split up to say I was holding them back as songwriters. So when they went to do Oasis songs, do they do any of their own? No, they did all mine.โ
So does Liam even have a right to play those tunes? โWell, he wrote about ten Oasis songs. He has a right to do those. Does he have the right? Everybody has the right. He can cover any of my songs,โ he laughed.
