About Noel Gallagher:
Noel Gallagher was the main songwriter, lead guitarist and occasional lead vocalist of Oasis, one of the biggest and most loved bands ever to emerge from the UK. His band played a tremendous role in shaping and inspiring contemporary guitar music from the 1990’s onwards. Noel’s continued success with the High Flying Birds cements his position as one of the most prolific and successful British songwriters of the last 50 years.
Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds first emerged in 2011 with their eponymous album released in October of that year. The album went double platinum in the UK and has sold over 2.5 million copies worldwide. The release of the debut album was supported by a touring schedule covering 150 live shows in 32 countries.
This was followed by ‘Chasing Yesterday’, released in March 2015 - the first album to be produced as well as written by Noel, with 122 further shows in 28 countries.
A third album, ‘Who Built The Moon?’, was recorded in sessions spanning 2 years with renowned producer and composer David Holmes in Belfast and London released in November 2017.
There followed a series of multi-genre EPs released over the course of 2019 and 2020, all receiving high critical acclaim.
June 2021 saw the release of ‘Back The Way We Came: Vol 1 (2011-2021)’ - a Best Of celebrating a decade of Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds. This was the bands 4th consecutive Number 1 album and the 12th Number 1 album across Noel’s career. 2021 also saw Noel named as Record Store Day’s official ambassador.
Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds played Glastonbury’s Pyramid stage in June 2022, delivering a career-spanning set to one of the weekend’s biggest crowds. The show was the culmination of a summer of acclaimed sold-out outdoor venues across the UK.
Fast forward to 2023 and Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds are looking ahead to their much anticipated fourth studio album, ‘Council Skies’, due for release 2nd June. From the evocative album title to the cover art, to the lyrics themselves, ‘Council Skies’ sees Noel Gallagher bringing a more personal perspective, reclaiming his past and paying homage to his Mancunian roots. His most varied and accomplished solo record to date, Noel’s new album is a record framed by confidence, risk-taking, surefooted creative freedom, and great emotional depth.
The first singles taken from the album - ‘Pretty Boy’ and ‘Easy Now’ - were met with a hail of critical and commercial success by fans and media alike. ‘Pretty Boy’ has also been remixed by The Cure’s Robert Smith, taking the track to a new spaced-out dimension.
Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds commence touring in early June 20023 with a 26 date USA co-headline tour with Garbage before returning to the UK an extensive run of outdoor venues including a huge homecoming show at Manchester’s Wythenshawe Park before closing the year with an arena tour in December.

I can unequivocally say that this is the best song off the album. Nice one Noel!

[@Dude0000]

I dunno, I’m quite equivocal about it, myself.

[@jonasrmb01]

Noel probably doesn't even know what that means

Best song of the album

[@brianhennessy1786]

one of my faves. baseline is like new years day U2

[@ravenstrange8466]

Another masterpiece.

[@XoXo475]

Reminds me of Talk by Coldplay . Best song on the album and that’s saying something !!

Very different and that bridge took me by surprise. Really, really nice!

Jesus that’s absolutely stunning 👌

[@foolsgoldhelterskelter3917]

that chorus is so smooth. Perfect

[@winstonoboogie9186]

Phenomenal song off a phenomenal album

[@gastonmartinez6033]

One of the best on the album. Love the 'Ashes to Ashes' vibes...

[@alexhigh6907]

Please get this in the live set for the UK

[@simontunnicliffe2107]

"The girl on the television, she's got her magic eye on you" what a great lyric.

[@Chrisamusic1]

Cod psychedelia. You are far too easily impressed. 😂

[@simontunnicliffe2107]

​@@Chrisamusic1Just conjures up a good image in your mind. Might not be a Floyd or Stones lyric but still think it's a great line / lyric.

[@kevinwardlaw6162]

Check out The Stooges TV eye lyrics, a possible inspiration for those words.

[@tomclifford702]

The Ashes to Ashes nod is delightful

[@davidefico8024]

The moment at 1.42 is pure goosebump. It reminds me the b-side's vibe of first four Oasis singles

[@wertheriano]

This guy remains a master. Thanks a lot, Noel. God bless you.

[@alexkerr5804]

Best song off the album imo

[@NeonRadarMusic]

The most Cure that Noel has ever sounded. And I love it!!

David BOWIE ashes to ashes!!!!!!!!!

David Bowie Ashes to Ashes!!!!!!

Agree.

Your opinion not fact

[@davidpearson6785]

Best song on the album by a mile, with a belting pet shop boys remix also

[@antonmk1244]

It doesnt catch me at all. I ll try again later.

[@andyvinedeadshadyacoustic4717]

Whenever I’m alone with you, you make me feel like I am home again, sing it to yourself along with the first part of the verse, this album seems quite Robert Smith/ Cure influenced which is no bad thing, great track, great album

[@garycorfield7312]

One of the best

[@lucianomecozzi]

El mejor tema del álbum. Desde las notas de voz hasta el ritmo hipnótico de las bases

[@superbantam523]

Noel said if he could change the album this shouldve been the opening track. Says thought it wasnt strong enough but realised it was when it was too late to change anything.

[@user-qw1tr1bn3h]

Hope he plays this on the arena tour ,cant wait December Birmingham!!!!

[@pamelabrun6891]

This whole collection of tunes is soul moving for me!! It gives me images in my head like no other!! Flashes from the past and glimpses of the future and has a feeling of danger that I’m drawn to!! OUTFKNSTANDING. ♥️

[@SlowlyUnfurling84]

This is my favourite tune off the new album. Sounds a bit like Falling Down from DOYS.

[@crobilly19]

This is AWESOME...I'm so blown awsy... with this WHOLE ALBUM!!!..fucking Noel is brilliant

[@crobilly19]

this sounds like a very personal song, like Dead to the world....to be able to take pain { like a divorce} and use as a base for a song that you release for everybody too like or dislike is reason enough for me to absolutely see Noel as an unparalleled songwriter, i think the Melodies, the structure in his writing on this album is every bit as good as his Oasis days.

[@maxdavies793]

If Pet Shop Boys did guitar then this is what they'd sound like for me! What a CHOOOOONE!!!!!

[@brianjones4026]

Noel is as ever on Top of his Game ! This man has a pen and Gift for succ moving songs ! One thing is missing maybe on this song, or maybe not missing, but needed ! Liam,s Shiiiiining Voice ..... I can already hear it, can,t you !! Wish the two Brothers could one day find Peace and give this Country in need, ..... An Oasis, from which to See before us now All Lost in this Desert of our own making ! Seek and You Shall Find ! Drink up Lads and Lasses, Work to be Done !

[@BrunoHerbert_]

According to Noel Gallagher it's a very personal and very dark song, and he thought: "Could this open the album? And really, in hindsight, it should have been done. I love the words and they're quite epic." There are three solo breaks: a piano solo, a guitar solo, and another instrumental break. There are some drop down menus. Interestingly, the person playing bass is Noel Gallagher. "I was doing it here with Chris Sharrock (drummer), saying, 'Look, it's going to be a little like XTC or Bowie or that New Wave kind of thing. He came up with the drum beat, I had the bass line. and that's when everything happened."

[@mlit51]

Amazing tune, though I think it suits the album best (which is fantastic) as a closer.

[@Shaun-england80]

Good tune

[@MrInsensibile]

Noel at his best.

[@Gideon_Mx]

Amazing good song!

[@souley7]

Feels like the song is from Coldplays XY album...I dig the sounds 👍

[@XoXo475]

[@pamela8329]

Not all fluffed up with an orchestra, a proper banger! I love this! 🎸

Ha ha. Good one. (An orchestrated banger.)

[@Mr.Robot777]

Masterpiece

[@seanjones180]

I was at the launch/playback These videos were on massive screens surrounding us.. Magic

[@alipanroosendaal9503]

I think first instinct of having this close the album was the correct choice. A case of "Well, how do you follow that"? It is the album's big song, with a fine melancholy atmosphere, and a touching vocal. (Can't help wondering if the title refers to a conversation about the settlement - or is that too obvious) - Presumably this visualiser was put together way before Croatia's entry for Eurovision became known?

[@95MAFS]

Biblical!

[@tomclifford702]

He says it shouldn't have ended on this sad note. But to me this is his buckets of rain by Bob dylan. Blood on the tracks. Divorce albulm. Perfect ending.

[@stefanorighes8676]

Superb song!

So much awesome Noël, among all the news songs i've heard i can't say wich is the best : all carry me on an another cloud. Thanks a lot Mister Gallagher.

[@theeinzelganger69]

Love it from the first moment😊

[@JuanHerrera-vj2rg]

Don't you hear any Bowie's Ashes to Ashes inspiration when you hear that chords progression?

[@pamela8329]

Noel stated, in a recent NME interview that this song is "Bowie-ish". Ace interview as usual. Cheers!

[@sparkipeat2255]

Yeah, with the clue of 'Bowie influenced' jumped out straight away. Bass line reminds me of 'New Years Day' U2.

[@brianferris6118]

And the drums but sure noel doesn't hide the fact it sounds a bit like Ashes to Ashes ..

[@brianferris6118]

Love the fact he mixes all my hero's together in some way and at the end we get Noel .. doesn't get any better ❤

[@Marlinspike1964]

There’s a little bit of “China Girl” by Bowie in there too.

[@simontunnicliffe2107]

Reminds me of something there, is it Man of the World - Fleetwood Mac? no don't think it is, it's the chord progression, is it Beatles something or other?

[@StayBlur]

@@simontunnicliffe2107 the guitar sound and chords resembles a lot of the acoustic version of fade away in Paris

[@anony-mousse8487]

Let's think of a number And I'll try to guess your name Let's drink to the future I hope it comes round again Right now, people are dancing While the world slips away There's no time for love and romancing And there's nothing more to say, hey hey (ahh) There's nothing more to say (doop ahh) [Verse 2] Last night, I was talking to the shadows on the wall Outside, under the moonlight I never felt so stoned Because you, you were my hero and you left and took your bow So lets play into tomorrow, gotta get out of the now, how, how [Chorus] Forgive my indecision, I don't know what I should do I need time to think, because it's such a cruel world The girl on the television, she's got a magic eye on you She sell you a dream, she's trying to fool the world So let it all fall, all fall down [Instrumental] The truth won't hurt her body What are we still playing and pretend ? Don't ever tell me that you love me Cos this might be the end [Instrumental] [Chorus] Forgive my indecision, I don't know what I should do I need time to think, because it's such a cruel world The girl on the television, she's got a magic eye on you She sell you a dream, she's trying to fool the world So let it all fall, all fall down [Outro] Let's think of a number And I'll try to guess your name Let's drink to the future I hope it comes round again I hope it comes round again I hope it comes round again I hope it comes round again I hope it comes round again

[@lucastorregrosa1690]

Tuve la misma sensación instantáneamente en la primera escucha, pero en realidad creo que es el puente de Nice To Know You de Incubus. Tiene los mismos acordes. De todos modos, no deja de ser un temazo de Noel!
