Oasis - Noel & Liam about Songbird

[@jg6022]

"One of our best tunes, doesn't matter who wrote it." - Noel being very kind to his lil' bruva...

[@oli3437]

Noel admitted at the end of the video that Liam wrote Songbird

[@chrishargreaves8016]

I actually think he doesn't give Liam enough credit for it.

[@siddh781]

@@chrishargreaves8016 are you crazy! He’s always said he loves it. Check out the Heathen Chemistry interviews. He even allowed it to be a single. That’s says a lot in itself.

[@robdean704]

Very kind because it's not in the top 20 oasis rammers

[@runnersdialzero1244]

​@@robdean704 Probably not even top 40. I like it okay, but there are manymanymany better Oasis songs.

[@BB.halo_heir]

I think Liam feels Songbird drags on because it's his heart out there for everyone to see. He's just embarrassed. Bless him. Great song, great men, love them ♡♡♡

[@burnacco]

fr lmfao deep down he's such a shy sweet fella

[@rktyler3470]

When I see these two smiling next to eachother having a laugh, I pray for their reconciliation as brothers. They deserve peace with eachother. It’s hard and their world got crazy but they should be brothers, man.

[@Brodzzzzz]

One of the best songs of all time

[@cardona9448]

go to sleep kid

[@stevens5541]

​@@cardona9448it's a fantastic song

[@jobbercity]

People often underestimate Liam Gallagher because of his mannerisms and his 'hard-lad' attitude. To be able to sit and write and song like that is pure talent, like it or not.

[@cliveswabs9365]

Hard ..def not ..one punch hed be crying

[@spaceengineer1452]

2 chords G to Eminor. Brilliant...

[@BoynamedMagnus183]

100% true!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@juliab7230]

Noel: He wrote Little James and Songbird in the same year and was just like, ‘Oh, fuck. Gotta go for a fucking lie-down here. That’s fucking six minutes of music.’ Noel: I even have to push to put it into the set because he just won’t have it. ‘Do you think it drags on…?’ It’s two minutes and one second long. ‘Do you think it drags on a bit?’ It’s like, what fucking crazy drugs are you on? The End!

[@monoretefm6052]

Thank you for this translation ! The day i get to understand what Liam and Noel actually say i'l be more british than the queen.

[@burnacco]

bro could you translate the whole thing 😭

[@mitchellmyers5350]

A shame he's divorced now, as if they were to reunite we'll probably never hear this one live again....pity as its a lovely tune and one of liams finest moments

[@StayBlur]

Haha Noel.. "gotta fucking lay down here, i just wrote six minutes of music"

[@mofzpo]

I hope they play this one next year. It's beautiful, one of their best indeed.

[@Leukoblast2396]

Presenting Liam Gallagher as... Tony Montana.

[@alexandrebray925]

I wish Liam would play this live...

[@truetimo1733]

Imagine to be brought up in ubiquitous contempt climate, no single kind word or encouragement, always being put down so contender could validate himself. And to continue that experience being adult at your work. Poor Liam must had a great patience

[@shoegazer93]

The Meaning of Soul, I'm Outta Time, Born on a Different Cloud. Even Littlle James was pretty good. Liam could write if he bothered

[@jeremysears4263]

Shoegazer 93 Too true. But I understand where he's coming from.

[@grantinskeep7553]

Little James is not good lol

[@TameTones]

Grant Inskeep fuck off

[@grantinskeep2563]

Andrew Zataray songs trash. He came a long way after in terms of writing. The Meaning Of Soul, Guess God Thinks Im Abel, Songbird, Im Outta Time, Boy With the Blues, Bold are fucking great

[@andrewpatuasic9738]

Well Mr Grant fuck your opinion mate

[@jaggass]

Ive never heard one fucking single sentence from Liam or Noel without the word fuck in it.

[@TheFunktipus1]

I think it's a great song

[@Tmendler]

biblical

[@HardWater91]

Anyone notice that, during the whole interview, Noel hardly ever looks at Liam, but Liam looks at Noel a lot? Think that's quite telling.

[@TheWileycyote95]

HardWater91 Perhaps Liam appreciates Noel than Noel appreciates Liam? That's my guess

[@gangstermedia9039]

He looks up to his older brother that is why, you understand?

[@chloepeacock3409]

Yes I think he probably sees him as abit of a father figure (as his read dad was abusive) noel might not realise that

[@marutsuke]

Chloe Peacock why would you say something like this fuck now i'm crying

[@jeprox8000]

Because the interviewer is positioned on that angle

[@IvyMike777]

As good as this is the demo version is best!

[@tcaudiobooks737]

They should’ve known better and put that out instead.

[@shredder9536]

Look at Liam's foot going at 1:26 like a dog nervously wagging his tail. He must have had anxiety when his song is in the limelight and being discussed.

[@juliab7230]

Liam: I wrote that as a one-off. I was in France ‘round this massive fucking mansion doing our album. I went out with a guitar one day, sat under a tree, had a bit of a biblical moment and that popped up and that was it. I didn’t do it to present to Noel, I just fucking wrote it. It took three minutes, that was all it took, and I think I wrote all the words, like, pretty much there and then. Liam: And that was that, then, for a bit. I got writer’s block. I’ve only just picked the ball up. ...

Does somebody know the KZbin video were they tell the making of for the album version? The drum was with a large phone book. I Saw it once, but can't find it back.

[@Kozaack]

I think I belong to minority of people who like Liam more than Noel.

[@joluvbabe]

I don't think we're the minority tbh...Liam is way too good to be true.

[@espresso5512]

Back then, perhaps. But now, Liam has got all the love

[@Zack_410]

Not a minority. Maybe at the time you commented but not anymore.

[@sportsportsport]

haha, that's 6 minutes of music LMAO!

[@ramabranch]

I bet my wage that Liam was doing some lines just before the interview, look how he keeps on rubbing his nose

[@MattPuxty]

Rama Branch No, he’s rubbing his nose because he’s self-conscious about his song. Understandable, living in Noel’s shadow. Being a solo artist will help him a lot. I think he’ll gain more confidence.

[@cullenmott7614]

I can see why Liam thinks it drags on. It totally doesn't but I can see why. It has two chords (and really it's actually one chord) and songs with that few chords can often feel repetitive.

[@jeremysears4263]

Cullen Mott That and he's self conscious about it. He's actually a good songwriter.

[@cullenmott7614]

Also he's been singing Noel's songs for two decades. Noel's songs have really nice, varied chord progressions and they rarely feel like they drag on. I think Liam saying Songbird drags on is actually a subtle and unintended complement for Noel's chord progressions.

[@cullenmott7614]

.....which is actually kind of ironic because in the video Noel immediately makes fun of Liam for saying Songbird drags on, missing the compliment

[@jeremysears4263]

Cullen Mott Right. I believe the *Beady Eye* was Gem and Andy pushing Liam to be more in his songwriting. There's some great tunes there. I was in a band with an incredible instrumentalist/songwriter and it was intimidating (at the beginning) to come up with tunes. The guy wasn't an asshole but could be very "my way or the highway" with his attitude on songs

[@nox4298]

There's 4 chords in the song; Gmaj, Cmaj, Dmaj and Emin

[@Stu282]

Not really this is the only video on Earth that makes it look that way. They do get on really well in the whole interview though. Watch the whole of "Lock the Box".

[@mmsiphonevinyls1027]

All people talk about is their fights these days, but i really miss this sort of banter that they often had when they were getting on.

[@LiamOwen1991]

“It doesn’t matter who wrote it” exactly Noel to bad you don’t see it that way when Liam sings oasis songs at his solo gigs not your songs oasis songs

[@theloniouscoltrane3778]

28 July 2020 never hated the Gallagher brothers! they can fight all they want but their songs will remain iconic... that's all that matters! Noel and Liam live forever!

[@sammyodowd1657]

Liam still looks for bar from his bro

[@thomaslangley1571]

Tune.

[@ChainNonSmoker]

There's actually 3 chords but one is just sort of bridge-chord between the 2 main chords + the piano arrangement adds bit of extra sounds major 7th's and such to it as well, but u could stick with strumming guitar and play it without any of the extra chords. A great tune by a great band.

[@DanFranciss]

@paulpizzey1973 Could a three year old produce a great song like this from lyrics on a piece of paper?

[@19911995]

classic Noel

[@duff0120]

could be a beatles song, 100%. its like a john lennon song during 1966-65

[@leikaleemets]

'six minutes of music' yeah, tough :D

[@tcmannen]

this is funny :)

[@mickymac6571]

The piano bit is very likeSt ettienes “I was born in Xmas day”, not that Noel ever copies other songs.😎

[@lea24457]

I once read it was a tribute to his then fiance Nicole Appleton not sure how true that is though. You can’t always believe what you read 😂

[@TheBuzzingSound]

Four basic chords. Tidy. Genius.

He can’t stop rubbing his nose he’s lying through his teeth. Noel blatantly wrote it and let him have it

It’s ok! It fails at the ending.

Lennon reincarnated

[@sweetspirit3887]

But hes trying so hard to sound like Lennon which is so disapponting. Liam's own voice is perfect as it is.

[@MattWilson.]

He's always been trying

[@paintballing489]

Lol Notice Liam beer? Had to get a little drunk to stand Noel.

[@booishoois309]

Oasis always lies about how long it takes to write songs because they want to seem like prodigies. "Oh yea I went under a tree and wrote it in 3 minutes" yeaaaa right....

[@GNRDisturbedSlash]

Boois Hoois most artists say the best of their songs, or at least the ones good enough for album release usually come to them in minutes. It's pretty common. There's exceptions of course, Noel says RnR star took him months to write.

[@MattPuxty]

Why is it that hard to believe? It’s not a complicated song.

[@stevens5541]

Hes not called oasis

[@NorthWalesKid]

You can tell Noel hates that Liam wrote a great song

[@mansurik1922]

These vulgar speaking band is from England just like the Whitesnake !!

[@Eyeofthetiger69]

This one song has more meaning than everything Noel wrote for Oasis.

[@startracker5895]

Noel even seems jealous that Liam wrote this song. ‘It doesn’t matter who wrote it’. It kind of does really. He could have said r kid did alright writing this. He seems impossible to complement his brother. He must be a very insecure man

[@BroPro98]

He is joking obviously

[@roberthatlem4645]

And does Liam complement Noel during the interview? No, guess they both insecure 😂😂😂 Lol

[@startracker5895]

Robert hatlem Liam often complements his brother in many other interviews. Saying he’s a great songwriter. Noel never says anything nice. Noel on his own couldn’t have got anywhere without Liam. His voice is bland. So I stand by what I said. Noel is insecure. LOL. 😂😂😂

[@roberthatlem4645]

@@startracker5895 I've seen them say nice things about each other many times.. maybe you're the one whos insecure 😂😂Lol

[@siddh781]

Stop twisting words into making Noel sound like a bad person. He has always stated how much he’s liked songbird. In fact he included it in this compilation and made it into a single. He also encouraged Liam to write songs by including little James on SOTSOG. Liam HARDLY says anything nice about Noel. Maybe he’s the insecure one

[@gezzad]

yer right this is a one off - thank fk its is utter shite

[@alanoconnor4745]

I'm not a oasis fan

[@scottap30bot]

Noel is being sarcastic, he clearly thinks their crap songs, and his latest interview with radio x shows this.. "Noel thinks it's crazy his warring brother doesn't perform the track, which he's deemed his "one tune". "The ironic thing about that song is that he doesn't even f****** play it now, work that one out, the Ballad of the Mighty I singer mused. "He's only got one tune and that's it, and he's not playing the f****** tune." Well, this won't help a reunion happen will it.. 🙄

[@BrokenGodEnt]

Noel wouldn't put a song on an Oasis record if he thought it was crap. He cares too much about his own image for him to take up a spot on the record with a shit song for the sake of being sarcastic. He likes Songbird and has called it a perfect song before. He's just taking the piss, because he's angry at Liam. I think Noel is lying to himself, because Liam has written good tunes since he started his solo career. Noel just won't admit it. Liam has admitted to liking Noel's solo stuff. Noel's just being a cock.

[@shesbaldbutiwould]

ive heard him wax lyrical about it in numerous interviews he genuinely likes it sounds a lot like lennon which helps

[@thaysdeoliveira4886]

Did you really not realize that Noel was being ironic? He dies but does not praise his brother clearly, their relationship is like that. Liam must know that

[@dirkdiggler7621]
