Noel Gallagher On Recording A Number Of Oasis Songs That Were Never Released And More

Some quotes from Noel Gallagher's recent appearance on The Matt Morgan Podcast.

He spoke about recording fourteen tracks that were written when he was Oasis.

 'I’ve listed the proper songs and there were fourteen. They just fell by the wayside of various projects from down the years. I’m going to record them. Some are quite old school. I was looking at the track listing and thinking, "Actually, fu**ing hell, no I’d approach that song differently". It’s been very interesting."

He added “The gift is not coming up with the chords. The gift I’ve been given is remembering it all. If I play a song once and I’m not ped and it connects, it’s in there forever. Obviously, I’ll forget about little things but years later I’ll be playing something and go, ‘Hang on, that’s that f***ing tune I had’. That’s the gift, not the song writing. If they’re good enough they’ll come back.”

He also spoke about the documentary 'The Phenomenon'.

"Some kids together in a playground in Zimbabwe had seen a UFO land, at the time they gave vivid descriptions and they got them all together again and they told exactly the same story It made me think, well if they were lying then the stories, inevitably, would have evolved and changed a bit.

They showed them being filmed giving their stories back whenever it was, and they were telling it word for word, I was like, ‘Oh, f***ing hell.’ Because if that’s just something you make up it would have been embellished down the years.”
