Noel Gallagher will reportedly team up with fellow British rock superstar Chris Martin for his set at this month's (Feb12) Brit Awards in London.
Gallagher is preparing to play his first solo performance at the event at London's O2 Arena, where he is also up for the Best Male award.
And to ensure his set thrills the crowd, the former Oasis star has asked Coldplay frontman Martin to accompany him on piano.
Speaking about the Brit Awards to Bbc Radio 2, the event's host James Corden says, "I'm really looking forward to Noel Gallagher because I don't think he's done a big gig like that before. I think it'll be great, because I don't think he would do it unless he was certain he could show he was the true music god that he is.
"I'm almost certain I'm not supposed to tell you this, but I don't really care, I think Chris Martin is going to accompany him on piano. I just think that will be great."
The Brit Awards will take place on 21 February (12).

Noel Gallagher spent much of the 90s proving that ‘Rock Stars’ still exist. His early days in Oasis are as memorable for their expletive-fuelled speeches, drug binges and public stoushes with brother Liam as they are for the band’s seminal album’s Definitely Maybe and What’s The Story Morning Glory.
These days Noel is all grown up, and you’d more likely find him spending time with his wife and children then having a public hissy fit. Since ending Oasis in 2009 – minutes before the band was due on stage in Paris – Gallagher has gone about doing what he has always done: writing songs. And the result is his debut solo album Noel Gallagher And The High Flying Birds.
While in Australia for the Big Day Out and a run of sold-out solo shows, FasterLouder sat down for a chat with the elder Gallagher brother, to find a surprisingly funny, self-deprecating musician who, while no longer caught up in the excesses of rock n roll, still enjoys a bit of a blag and the occasional swear.
How’s the tour gone so far?
Great. As well as I could have hoped for. I like Australia. I knew it was gonna be good.
It’s probably the longest tour you’ve done here as well, in terms of time span?
I dunno. We did the Livid festival a few years ago and that was quite long. It’s great and the gigs have been very well received. They’ve been my first festivals ever as a solo artist and I’ve enjoyed them a lot.
I was at your Sydney show and the thing that struck me was the crowd reaction. People were going beserk, singing along to not only Oasis songs but to the new songs as well. Has that type of reaction surprised you?
Part of me is thinking ‘Well it’s not a surprise because my new songs are fucking brilliant’ but another part of me, in equal measure, is surprised because those new songs are up against songs that are very, very, very famous and they’re very important to people. I understand that.
But have I been surprised? Yes and no. It’s great. I knew that Everybody’s On The Run and If I Had A Gun and What A Life and The Death Of You And Me are as good a songs as I’ve written. I knew that when I was putting them out there, but you can’t predict what other people are going to feel. They may have fallen on deaf ears. Many a song I’ve written, played it live and thought ‘this is as good as I’ve ever written’ and people have fucking all gone to the bar. So, you know, I am surprised a little bit.
You mentioned in your tour diary about the bra that got thrown on stage at the Enmore [show in Sydney].
It’s a wonderful thing.
Then, at the Big Day Out there was a bra and knickers…
And top hat! [Laughs]
Do you think you’ve started something?
I do hope so. I keep them all as trophies like a little serial killer. You know, ladies underwear is always welcome on stage in any capacity.
From where I was standing, the knickers came from behind and you saw them and had a slightly puzzled look on your face.
Well I was thinking ‘do the top hat and the knickers belong to the same person because I want to meet that girl and get a monocle off her’.
Are you enjoying being on this tour along with Kasabian?
Yeah, I was out with them the other night. Good lads. We’re not just showbiz mates, we socialise outside of showbiz, baby.
I’m surprised you’ve not played a song or two with them at some point.
I’ve not been asked. You’ve gotta be asked. You can’t just say ‘Right, I’m playing on Club Foot’. I’m available if asked.
You’ve just announced a new single, Dream On.
This album is turning into Thriller.
You mentioned a while back in your diary about shooting a video for it. Is it a continuation of the last three videos or is it something different?
No, no, it’s different now, we’ve stopped that. We were gonna carry it on but I think it was time for something different. The other three songs are slightly psychedelic and I do mean slightly. This one is a straight-up pop song. But it was the most fun, I have to say, I’ve ever had on a video shoot. I was fucking absolutely amazing.
Can you give us a bit of an idea of what it entails? Is there more acting from you?
[Laughs] Don’t refer to what I do as acting. All I’m doing is being in it. I’m in this one more. It’s a song that involves a man and a woman but I’m neither the man nor the woman.
An outside observer?
If you like. It’s good. I like it. It was a fucking great doing it I’ve gotta say. Such a good time.
It was also announced that the b-side is one of the Amorphous Androgynous tracks. Is it that one that’s being played at the shows?
Before we come on, yeah.
Is that one of the songs from the High Flying Birds album that’ll be on this next one?
That album is sadly been put on the backburner now because this album has become so successful, that the release date keeps getting put back. But yeah, that’s one of the three singles that’s on it. They’re not remixes, they’ve been completely re-recorded.
In the same way that they did the version of Falling Down?
The What A Life one is a bit like Falling Down. The If I Had A Gun one called Shoot A Hole Into The Sun, really if I’m not singing ‘Shoot a hole into the sun’ over it, if you take the vocal out of it, you wouldn’t know that it was the same song. It’s been completely re-worked. The Death Of You And Me sounds like something from Jack The Ripper times, it’s very vaudeville.
I can’t talk too much about that record because it’s yet to be mixed and the mixes that I have done of it or have been done of it, I’ve not been happy with and I’m all about the mixing. But that one is finished.
As you were saying, this album’s kind of barrelled along and in the next UK tour you’re going to have horns and strings added to the band – are you looking forward to have more musical augmentation?
I’ve got a 50-piece choir on stage with me as well for all the gigs. I always try not to do so much of that cause I always feel it’s a shame for people round the rest of the world when they see it on YouTube and they think, ‘Oh, fucking hell!’ But it’s just too expensive to bring 75 people all over the world. So unfortunately they’re only the kind of things you can do close to home.
I’m not one for the razzle dazzle and the razzamatazz and I think, in arenas, people now come to expect something a little more. So I decided to fill the stage with people and instead of looking at screens, look at people. What’s more interesting than looking at people? Nothing. Maybe animals. But until animals can sing, that ain’t gonna happen.

"Go Let It Out" is a song by English rock band Oasis, written by the band's lead guitarist Noel Gallagher.
It was released on February 7th 2000 as the first single from the fourth studio album Standing on the Shoulder of Giants. The song peaked at #1 in the UK charts where it went Silver.
The lyrics are a similar vein to "Roll With It" in that it encourages the listener to get on with their life without being specific about how this is to be achieved. The song samples the drums from Johnny Jenkins' version of Dr John's "I Walk on Gilded Splinters". The title may be a reference to the line in "Hey Jude" by The Beatles, "So let it out and let it in, hey, Jude, begin". Noel described the song as "the closest we came to sounding like a modern day Beatles" in the 'Lock the Box' interview found on the DVD in the special edition of Stop the Clocks.
The song, along with B-side "(As Long As They've Got) Cigarettes in Hell", also embodies the psychedelic feel which the band experimented with on the album. It couples this with an acoustic guitar chord sequence. "Let's All Make Believe", the second B-Side is considered by many to be one of the best Oasis B-sides. Some people believe the lyrics of this song to relate to the cracks that began forming in the group at the time (see below), for example: "So let's all make believe/that we're still friends and we like each other."
Due to the departure of guitarist Bonehead and bassist Guigsy in the early recording sessions for Standing on the Shoulder of Giants, the track features only Liam Gallagher (vocals), Noel Gallagher (rhythm guitar, bass guitar, lead guitar) and Alan White (drums).
Oasis were looking for replacements for founding members Bonehead and Guigsy and while Bonehead was quickly replaced with fellow Creation signing and former Heavy Stereo frontman Gem Archer, Guigsy proved harder to replace. Thus the trippy video for "Go Let It Out" had to be filmed with Noel on bass, Archer in Noel's role as lead guitarist and Liam in Archer's role as rhythm guitarist.
The b-side "Let's All Make Believe" has recently been included in several lists as a 'hidden gem', such as Q magazine placing it at number one on its list of '500 best lost tracks' and at 4 on its 'list of songs to download this month - January 2006.' Q magazine said in the description 'If Standing on the Shoulder of Giants had contained this track, it would have probably got another star'.
In the "lock the box" interview, Noel considers "Go Let It Out" to be "head and shoulders" above any other songs he had written during this time, and its "up there with some of the best things I've ever done."
"Go Let It Out" is included on Oasis' compilation album Stop the Clocks, and is the only song from Standing on the Shoulder of Giants on that album.

From Noel Gallagher's 'Tales From The Middle Of Nowhere' tour diary.
Yes...
Well that's it, my work here is done. I have to say I've had a great time.
I love you Australia. Although you are built on a basic principal of petty crime, backpacking, casual labour (usually bar work and mainly in London, around Earls Court and Shepherds Bush) you are full of brilliant nonsense like - Aussie news, shoe stealing anarchists, Aussie country music, drunk people throwing dead fish, the oldest neon sign in the southern hemisphere, colossal American TV from the '80's and bugs the size of Ronnie Corbett. We'll meet again. No 'bout a doubt it.
ONWARDS.

Amorphous Androgynous
Noel Gallagher
Noel Gallagher has confirmed that while he expects to release the first material from his collaboration with psychedelic collective the Amorphous Androgynous next month, the album itself has been put on the back burner due to the success of his High Flying Birds record.
Speaking to FasterLouder before his solo show in Melbourne last week, Gallagher said that:”That album has sadly been put on the backburner now because this [Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds] album’s become so successful, that the release date keeps getting put back,”
“I can’t talk too much about that record because it’s yet to be mixed and the mixes that I have done of it or have been done of it, I’ve not been happy with and I’m all about the mixing.”
Gallagher announced over the weekend that one tune, Shoot A Hole Into The Sun, will be released next month as the b-side to new single Dream On.
You can read the full interview with Noel, in which he talks life post-Oasis will be on FasterLouder tomorrow morning.

Liam Gallagher
Oasis
Pretty Green
Today, the singer is something of a reformed character. It’s over two years since Oasis acrimoniously split.
The man I’m talking with lives with his second wife and their ten-year-old son on the edge of London’s Hampstead Heath.
We’ve been happily discussing the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, nappy-changing and school runs, curious conversation topics for someone who torpedoed Oasis’s first American tour by insulting the audience and hitting his brother, who was banned from Cathay Pacific after an argument and whose part in a brawl in a German hotel cost his management £170,000 in fines. But all that was a decade ago.
Today, Liam Gallagher is something of a reformed character. It’s over two years since Oasis acrimoniously split – or, to be more accurate, since squabbling Noel and Liam finally decided they could no longer work together or even see each other.
Their final falling-out took place before the group’s scheduled performance at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris and resulted in Liam smashing his brother’s prized guitar.
Since then, Liam has formed Beady Eye with Oasis bandmates Andy Bell, Gem Archer and Chris Sharrock, released a top-five album (Different Gear, Still Speeding) and devoted time to his own fashion label, Pretty Green.
I did all sorts for 20-odd years.
When you sit up in a bar and drink 20 pints and smoke and it’s four, five o’clock in the morning and then you can’t sing, it’s rubbish. I’ve done my time with all that, the lack of sleep and the hangovers. Now it’s time for a change. It’s great to have a drink with your mates, but when it’s banging out two or three days of your life, it doesn’t make sense any more. I just got bored of it. I’ve got a lot going on. I want to keep this Beady Eye thing going and focus.
I gave up drinking for three years – I loved it.
The kids seemed to like me a lot more. They said, ‘Your eyes aren’t red and you don’t mumble so much.’
I’m still a young man and I want to get stuff done.
I love running. I’ve got a shed, but there’s not much in it – just a Flymo. Get back to me in a year and you might see some mad gardening going on.
It takes more than blood to be my brother.
I’ve still got the right hump and now the gloves are off. We’re still not talking. If people think I’m going to be happy about the Oasis split, then they’re wrong. Even though I love Beady Eye, I’d prefer to still be in Oasis, because that was my thing. Oasis was my life.
I live and breathe rock ’n’ roll.
This isn’t a hobby for me. It’s been great doing all these little shows, going back to square one. It’s good to see the crowd and hear them. Long may that continue. Big gigs are soulless masses of people – I’m glad I’ve done them, but I don’t miss them. I’ve got nothing to prove anyway.
I’d rather people looked like me than Ronan Keating.
I don’t mind it at all. The more of me in the world the better, I say. I’m down with it. I’ve just got to keep ahead of the pack.
How can you be stylish if you never wash?
Look at these grungers – they just walk around filthy with matted hair and smelly T-shirts, looking like tramps – where’s the park bench and the Special Brew? And I despise this new disease of indie student music – Bloc Party and all that nonsense.
I don’t want to reinvent the wheel.
I always thought Brian Jones looked the b*******. George Harrison was cool and Paul Weller always looked good. Those are the three most stylish men in history for me, and the most overrated is my brother. He dresses like Val Doonican. But it’s the usual stuff, Sixties rock ’n’ roll – the Kinks, the Who, the Stones – that’s the vibe for me. It’s fine as it is, so let it be.
If it doesn’t look good on me then I’m not having it.
I keep an eye on things. I want to make the best clothes for the lad on the street or the next rock star in the making. The way I go about it is that I go through the wardrobe and think, ‘I’d like that new, in a nicer cloth’, and get it made. Or I delve into the past and make the clothes I always wanted. I see my label, Pretty Green, going everywhere.
Quadrophenia – the music, the clothes – is the height of British style.
Better than the Madchester scene or Britpop or anything else. The clothes were cool. A lot of people had nothing in those days – just a scooter and a house party to go to in Brighton. But it was good. There’s too much going on these days. There’s too much choice and not enough quality.
There are more hardcore mods than me.
I definitely go for the mod more than the rocker business, but I like Neil Young, Pink Floyd, the Beatles, a lot of really out-there and psychedelic stuff. To be honest, I’ve got my own thing going on. My style comes from football and all that casual thing.
Everyone had a certain look in the Eighties.
Music and football collided then. Meanwhile, a lot round my way used to wear dinner jackets and flares and walk about with walking sticks, and they looked cool.
I never sold drugs, but to get the odd thing I was a bit of a blagger.
I had honest work in a garden factory creosoting fences, until the boss told me to clean the toilet out. I cleared off, then I worked with my dad on his building firm, went out labouring. I’d go to church with my mum and then go home and see her get proper battered by my dad. She left him when I was ten.
Starting out with Oasis didn’t freak me out at all.
I’d been digging holes in Manchester for the previous four years, so I was ready for it. I was like: here’s your spade, you can have it! It all felt good to me. I didn’t take five years off to sit down and talk about how great I am. We went straight into the studio after the fight in Paris and we haven’t stopped since. You only get one crack at it, so you might as well get on with it, do it well and do it right. The busier the better.

Margaret Thatcher
Noel Gallagher
From Noel Gallagher's 'Tales From The Middle Of Nowhere' tour diary.
Yes...
Well not a great deal going on. Nothing to report and normally I would wait until something happened before I mithered you but someone has just made me aware of a headline they came across on this here internet. Now 99 times out of 100 I wouldn't bother with such nonsense but I feel outraged, so for the record...
There is a headline that implies that I am of the opinion that the years spent under the rule of that soon to be dead granny, Maggie Thatcher, was good for the soul. I've read the story and I must say it's very misleading; any great working class art, fashion, youth culture etc came to be IN SPITE of that woman and her warped right wing views and NOT BECAUSE of them. Also for the record, on the day that she dies we will party like it's 1989. Just so you know.
ONWARDS.
