Noel Gallagher and Evan Dando - Purple Parallelogram (unreleased song)

[@crosboid]

as if noel thought this song "wasn't much cop" Evan is amazing. Always had such an incredible voice and always had such fucking cool tunes.

[@survivalkitable]

This song is cool, catchy & great melody. Evan & Noel are both awesome in their own right. That's just my 2cents :-P

[@pelicanmouse]

he had turned it into roll with it - with much better results I had forgotten how to play it exactly - Noel re-taught it to me at Glasto '95! - I never thought this song quite cut it - like- roll with it .... that's the stuff . My label was getting weird about it (to into it ) so it was provident that noel got it stopped - evan

Purple parallellogram I got in Amsterdam Made me dream a dream I didn't understand Thought I heard you say that you're so proud of it Do you wanna dance with me? The best bit's the first part The bad bit is the end Got it all backwards, but I tend to blend Why'd you have to say that you're so proud of it Do you wanna dance with me? Gonna make it easy Gonna take it easy Zipped up jacket Really cost a packet Still you wanna dance with me Purple parallellogram I got in Amsterdam Made me dream a dream I didn't understand Thought I heard you say that you're so proud of it Do you wanna dance with me? I got a paper cut Pictures of Gwendolyn Got it all backwards, but I tend to blend Why'd you have to say you're so proud of it Do you wanna dance with me Gonna make it easy Gonna take it easy I'm not the same But I make all pain Now you gotta dance with me Gonna make it easy Gonna take it easy Purple parallellogram I got in Amsterdam Made me dream a dream I didn't understand Why'd you have to say that you're so proud of it Do you wanna dance with me? Do you wanna dance with me? Now you gotta dance with me Now you gotta dance with me

[@dakiblabla]

I heard "night is saved by a man called Dave" (instead of pain...)

[@pelicanmouse]

I gave noel a couple purple parallelograms at the end of a shittycoke night in "The Dam " rohyphnal - In the morning he was singing this song - and was still kinda psyched that he slept in his zipped up jacket - this melody got redirected to" roll with it " with better results - It's still fun to hear this 'cause Noel wrote 90 percent of it !! good times !!

[@chachi_arcola]

The lyrics are just so much more fun than roll with it. If oasis put this out with Liam on lead people would have gone bonkers

[@dakiblabla]

I think Evan singing is the best version. It should have been released by the Lemonheads.

[@pelicanmouse]

easy , hot shot !

[@jamesnetwall1193]

Love this song! Ty!!

[@su79nioj]

You've gotta roll with it...

[@davidluqueskywalker527]

It's funny to see that in all the photos Evan goes out with Liam and Noel alone!

[@sydbarrett5]

I think it should have been tacked onto the end of Car Button Cloth as a hidden track

[@poke398]

cool song :-D maybe it get's released someday

[@lacassula]

BUENISIMO TEMAZO!!!

[@laurencesoto5679]

Is this song about the Casino guitar? Talking about the inlays on the fretboard??

[@AnthonyMonaghan]

It's about pills...

[@RevenantEternal]

@@AnthonyMonaghan LSD Coolguy

[@AnthonyMonaghan]

@@RevenantEternal It really is about pills. I have no idea what kind of pills but they were purple and shaped like parallelograms.

[@Gibberish1983]

I even have the acoustic version of it by NOel Gallagher (quality isnt that great but still good stuff..)

[@stanncie]

yes he is :)

[@davidmreyes77]

Sounds like a Wilco song.

[@Gibberish1983]

Of course Noel remembered it, he just probably decided the song wasnt good enough to be released under Oasis, so when Dando did want to release it and make money out of it, of course Noel didnt give his blessing :)

[@stevenmair4809]

2 GOOD

[@h879xx]

He'll want it released soon then.

[@ssnabell]

sounds like the wonders

[@stevenmair4809]

HAPPY TUNE FROM BURNAGES FINEST(NOEL) AND THE FINEST MODERN AMERICAN SONGWRITER FROM BOSTON(EVAN) MAKES U WANNA DANCE....OBV WRITTEN BY EVAN.......LOVELY WEE SOLO FROM NOEL 2.....WICKED DRUGGY COMPOSITION....WISH THEY DID MORE TOGETHER!!!!

[@dakiblabla]

I may be in the minority here but I really love this song. I don't see that Roll with it is that much better. In any case, they're different enough, and this one is great in the Lemonheads style.

[@dctopboots01]

NOEL GALLAGHER IS THE BEST!

[@AntZombie121]

@pelicanmouse Evan his song is amazing. do you still speak to Noel?

[@MedalionDS9]

Noel thought this song wasn't good enough? Maybe back then...but these days I wish he still wrote songs this "bad" :D Britpop is all over this shit.

[@pelicanmouse]

Noel is top !

[@dakiblabla]

Yeah, but so are you.

[@micahcareyfilms]

Noel looked at this as a "has been" (Dando) trying to trade in on his name. That is pretty much the case!

[@eieiowens]

Noel Gallagher has totally disavowed this song, and has referred to Dando as a "has been" trying to revive his own name by fraudulently claiming that he co-wrote this with Gallagher. Noel Gallagher merely jammed with Dando and came up with some riffs. He did not appreciate Dando pulling this stunt!

[@KD_1989]

Noel calling someone a "has been" is rich coming from him. Smh

[@AkyovNorthWest]

@@KD_1989 has beens shouldnt be giving awards to gonna-be's

[@AnthonyMonaghan]

By far the best thing that useless git Noel Gallagher was ever involved withn. Evan clearly intimidated the precious Gallagher with his effortless genius.

[@inbloom77]

I love Evan but behave ffs

[@gb1967.]

Useless git, yeah unlike yourself cause your life achievements exceed my gallaghers😂 for the record, this ain’t even top fucking 30 of his best ‘things’

[@MassiveCatLittleLegs]

It's nice enough, but it's a bit lightweight.

[@eieiowens]

Quote:"but i'd love to hear Noel and Evan do this one live." That won't ever happen! Noel thinks Evan Dando is a needy "has been", and he is right about that!

[@Lemonhead86]

bullshit. Evan is a solid dude.

[@crapple009]

@@Lemonhead86 Aside from the chronic self-medication, yes he is.

[@auggiebendoggy]

Sounds nothing like roll w it

[@AkyovNorthWest]

verse melody is a little similar. purple paralellogram, i got in amsterdam you gotta roll with it, you gotta take your time

[@fogpumas]

@eieiowens perhaps, but i still think Dando's a better songwriter (think many here would agree).

[@killamongthairo]

Its songbird😂😂😂

[@ragingbull2001]

Dando is better than Noel in every way aside from maybe playing guitar.

[@floppyd0g]

Evan's better on guitar too :)

[@mod4it87]

But Noel and Liam never tagged along with Dando on tour or were desperate to have their name on his songs, just sayin. They still like him and enjoyed his company but he was their American version of Robbie Williams.

[@GDFullOn]

@ldybby Yeah...cause Evan Dando is a world-renown songwriter...oh, wait... Who is more likely to appear on list of great songwriters? That's right...Noel. Maybe Evan Dando is a better songwriter (although I don't believe it) but you are in a minority.

[@mohandrej]

chords for this song?

[@JackPeloquin]

If you can’t figure them out… you shouldn’t be playing. Grab a coloring book.

[@dakiblabla]

G C D mostly with a possible dash of A just like Roll with it but without the sevens (I'd guess).
