Oasis Release Stop The Clocks EP

On 13th November 2006 Oasis release a brand new collectors EP of classic songs. The EP is led by Acquiesce, for many the finest Oasis song never to be a single, and book-ended by The Masterplan, the master-ful b-side to ‘Wonderwall’ released a decade ago. Also included on the EP are never before heard recordings of Cigarettes and Alcohol and Some Might Say, that were unearthed during the mastering of the forthcoming Best Of album.

The EP is available only as a one-off collectors edition CD and Double gatefold 7” including an exclusive sheet of stickers:

Acquiesce
Cigarettes and Alcohol (Demo Version)
Some Might Say (Live In 1995, Venue Unknown)
The Masterplan

The Stop The Clocks EP is a preview from the first ever Oasis Best Of collection, released on 20th November. Stop the Clocks is an eighteen-song journey through a decade-plus defined by Oasis. It is imbued with the sort of wilfulness that has helped make Oasis the favourite band of millions worldwide and its running order – singles, b-sides, album tracks – chosen by the band themselves.

The Oasis Man, He Say,"Oosh"

As birthday surprises go, getting Noel Gallagher onstage for two songs at NME.COM'S 10th birthday party (September 12) was pretty special. Speaking to NME after the show, the Oasis leader explained why he dropped in to lend Kasabian a hand.

NME: Did you enjoy being in Kasabian for the night?

Noel Gallagher: "It's the smallest gig I've seen them do, well, ever actually because every time I've seen them they've either been supporting us or it was at Brixton Academy. They asked us to play Ibiza on a proper pissed-up, pharmaceutical night out. They said, 'Are you going to get up with us?', so i said 'Yeah, yeah!" But they're off to New York tomorrow, we're off doing our Best Of press so there was only one night when we were in town together and that was tonight! As luck would have it, it was the NME night, so we thought, 'Brilliant, let's do it!'''

Why did you play on those particular songs?

"Serge picked the two songs. If he'd have asked me I'd have said 'Club Foot', but then he said 'The Doberman' too and I thought 'Fucking brilliant!" 'Club Foot' is my favourite. It was the first bit of music I ever heard by them. When the interviews started two or three years I thought, 'They're gobby little fuckers, I hope they can back it up.' Then I heard 'Club Foot' and it was, 'Fuckin whoa, man! Is someone saying "Oosh!"? I went to see them live before before we went on tour with them and they were the fucking business!"

We enjoyed your "Ooshes".

"I fucking love that! When we first ever got to play with them we were going' Is that an "Oosh"?' and Tom Said, 'Yeah, "Oosh"'. What is that? It's where Serge taps into the dance music thing. They're up there with The Prodigy and the Primals. 'Screamadelica' is the definitive guitar dance record, it's not even indie dance or any of that shit. Kasabian are there now and they're making music which is unique."

Were you worried about the flying glowsticks?

"when they came on and there were glowsticks flying i was thinking, 'That would never happen at an Oasis gig, because someone would have said, "Throw them once more and you're out of here.''' I thought by the time I got on they'd all be on the stage anyway so it would be alright. I might have got hit in the head, but as luck would have it I smashed my own nose up with my guitar instead. I was on the drum-riser and managed to headbutt my own guitar and cut my nose!"

On This Day In Oasis History.......

"Little By Little" is a song by British rock band Oasis. Along with She Is Love, it made up the band's first double A-side single. The song appeared on the bands fifth album Heathen Chemistry. Noel Gallagher provides lead vocals on the track, considered by many critics to be a rather cavalier act as his brother, Liam Gallagher, is considered one of Britain's finest vocalists.




"Little by Little" was perhaps the most controversial song on the album, receiving mixed reviews from those who felt it was a classic example of an upbeat Oasis anthem and those who felt it was a twee, patronising, sycophantic melody. Regardless of this the song managed to peak at number two in the UK charts based largely on the publicity garnered by the song.

The promo video to the song featured a guest role by Robert Carlyle. The cover art for the single is an homage to Robert Indiana's LOVE artwork.

She is Love is a Noel Gallagher-penned track on Oasis' Heathen Chemistry album. It's a light, acoustic song about being in love. The song was written about Gallagher's girlfriend Sara McDonald.



Gallagher claims it was written in the Buckingham Gate Hotel in London, and that it took 30 minutes to complete.

It was released as a double A-side single along with Little By Little.

Liam Has An 'Uppy Birthday

It’s never a dull night when monkeyboy Liam Gallagher hits town.

The Oasis frontman went out with girlfriend Nicole Appleton for some posh nosh to celebrate his 34th birthday.

And as he came out of London’s Nobu restaurant with beer stains on his shirt, Liam flashed his famous “up yours” finger gesture at waiting snappers.

But he was obviously in a good mood because he couldn’t really bring himself to do a full-on Gallagher snarl.

Liam emerged wearing his shades in the dark and jumped into a waiting car with Nicole – who was full of smiles.

Earlier in the day, the All Saints singer had embarrassed the hardman rocker by telling Radio 1’s Chris Moyles that her birthday pressie to him was a “manbag”.

I can’t see him using it, can you?

Big brother Noel preferred to spend the day in New York with gorgeous girlfriend Sara Macdonald.

Noel will be pleasantly surprised to hear his baby bro wasn’t too badly behaved on his big day . . . till the next time, that is.
