History will look back at NG as being one of the all time greats. His catalogue of work is world class

[@garycartwright4860]

It really isn’t

[@simontunnicliffe2107]

Thats because he does one thing overall that a lot of modern artist / songwriters don't and that's to put EVERYTHING he can into making the vocal melody and chord structure the very best it can be.

love how this man continues to make absolute tunes after so many years

[@martinmcguire9974]

It's not really that difficult to release an album of 10 or 11 songs every 3 years though is it ? I'm sure anyone with a pen and a piece of paper could write 3 or 4 songs a year if that was their only job to do !! It's not like he's working 12 hours a day 5 days a week punching holes in crumpets on the Warburtons production line for minimum wage and having to juggle writing 4 songs a year in the process. I've wrote 4 songs in the last 2 weeks myself

[@davesmythe6733]

​@Martin McGuire imagine being the sole writer of an average of 30 tracks for a new album......and then consider that other artists who don't write or play a single note or compose a single lyric take the same amount of time to release music. Noel has a musical prowess that is vastly critiqued when he's one of the very few who we at least get "him"

[@patrickbracken3363]

Except he's written all this before, in better songs. Its just an old retread.

[@TOLOFFICIAL]

Suck up

[@MoonwalkerWorshiper]

@Thomas Winkelmair Where did you get him saying Noel write only 3 or 4 songs a year from? He said anyone could do that.

What a GORGEOUS song . Gives me goosebumps all over . Love the sound . Is retro , vintage but so forward at the same time . Cannot wait to hear the rest of this album

His best song since a long time. The chorus is really good.

It's a typical NH song- good moments, broken horrendous bits, back to OK - then just elevator music with off-key singing for the remainder. And this video had potential but they went nuts with the silly drone shots - Why are there drone shots? Tell the story on the council grounds. It shows a lack of discipline like the song itself.

[@modskillslebon]

@@freddyjisp6452 didn’t ask

Maybe I'm wrong but I feel that he always hid a fragile soul behind the image of an arrogant and greedy person. Otherwise he couldn't create these melodies. Love him♡

Another great song from a brilliant songwriter. Live forever Noel.

[@psgbjj]

He said in an interview his dad beat his talent into him. He was beaten a lot from his dad. He retreated into his own world. Paraphrasing.

[@foresthill538]

Music became his way to vent and escape. He's rough on the outside because of their upbringing in Burnage but underneath it is a softhearted person. No one writes songs like he has without being soft and vulnerable. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger or so they say.

[@turnupthesun81]

Very few songwriters have had a 30+ year run of writing quality tunes like Noel Gallagher. He is amongst elite quality when it comes to his longs he’s been at the top of his game.

[@charliebrogan1141]

For me Noel can do no wrong, love everything he does and this is another top tune.

[@simontunnicliffe2107]

I used to say this about Paul McCartney and now I will say it about Noel, he could literally trump into a microphone and it'd be one the best tunes ever. 😂
