The Kinks Ray Davies Urges Liam Gallagher To Patch Things Up With Noel

The Kinks star Ray Davies has urged Liam Gallagher to patch things up with his brother Noel.

The Come Dancing singer, who is a neighbour of the former Oasis frontman in North London, has famously feuded with his own sibling and ex-bandmate Dave for years, and he doesn't want the Gallaghers' rivalry to fester any longer.

Liam and Noel haven't been on speaking terms since the guitarist quit the group during a tour in 2009.

The Live Forever singer tells Q Magazine, "He (Davies) told me to patch it up with my brother. I said, 'I will if you do!'"

In the rare interview, Gallagher reveals he also lives close to George Michael, who once sent him flowers, and celebrity chef Jamie Oliver, adding, "I got told off for throwing stones at his windows p**sed-up (drunk), asking him to chuck down some bacon rolls."

And Liam tells the publication he has embarked on a new fitness regime, running seven miles every day.

"(I'm) leaving about 5am unless I've been out on the sauce (drinking), then I'm getting in at 5am," he smiles.

The singer concludes the interview by insisting Oasis will reform one day.

"I believe Oasis will sail again and it'll be glorious," he says. "If it's really about the fans, Noel, let's do it - because they want it. One year. Tour for a year. We'd smash it. My bags are still packed from my last tour, so I'm ready."

Noel has previously refused any and all attempts to reform Oasis.

On This Day In Oasis History...

Below is an interview with Liam and Noel Gallagher in Orlando, Florida. The interview was originally broadcast on CDUK on August 24th 2002.

Liam Gallagher Reviews Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds

The former Oasis singer reckons he could have made one of his brother's songs a "100 times better".

Liam Gallagher has given his appraisal on his brother Noel Gallagher's solo career, and despite saying some of it is "good," he hasn't held back about what he doesn't like.

In an interview with Q Magazine, the former Oasis singer shared his thoughts on Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, admitting he's "heard some songs on the radio or TV".

The outspoken rocker started out with the positive, conceeding: "It's good. Typical Noel songs." However, when it came to AKA... What A Life! he said: "If I'd have sung it I would have changed the whole dynamic. I'd have made it 100 times better."

The 43-year-old added: "I like that Everybody's On The Run one. But that new one with the na-na-na-na bit? [In The Heat Of The Moment] No, not having that at all. It sounds like Blur."

If that wasn't honest enough, it turns out Liam isn't too keen on his brother using the saxophone, either, concluding: "Our kid's not weird enough to go Bowie. Putting a sax on it doesn't make you Starman."

Talking about the upcoming Oasis documentary, Supersonic, and if it made him miss his brother, Liam revealed: "I miss the Noel in the film, that's the Noel I know.

"And I do love him. I don't sit at home crying into a picture of him, though and I'm sure he doesn't of me either. But I'm an energy and I bet he misses that energy".

Liam Gallagher Got In Trouble For Throwing Stones At Jamie Oliver’s House

Liam Gallagher has revealed that he ended up in trouble with neighbour Jamie Oliver after making an unconventional late night request for a bacon roll.

Speaking in an interview with Q Magazine as he prepares to launch his solo career, the former Oasis hellraiser revealed how he caused trouble with TV chef Jamie, who lives near him in Hampstead, North London.

Liam said: ‘It’s like Stella Street, round here: Jamie Oliver lives up the road. I got told off for throwing stones at his windows p*ssed-up, asking him to chuck down some bacon rolls.‘
To be honest, if Jamie lived near us we’d do that too. Good effort.

But he also played down talk of a fully-fledged solo career, and instead claimed that he ‘demoed some songs.’

‘I am not embarking on a solo career. Everybody should know that. There are just 10, 11 songs I’ve written that are eligible to be recorded.

‘They’ve got flair, attitude, the melodies are sick and the words are f****** funny.

‘We’ll record them this year and release it next year. It’ll shock people.’

Liam also answered the question on the lips of every Oasis fan, and says he thinks a reunion with brother Noel will happen eventually.

‘I believe Oasis will sail again and it’ll be glorious’, he said. ‘If it’s really about the fans, Noel, let’s do it – because they want it. One year. Tour for a year.

'We’d smash it. My bags are still packed from my last tour, so I’m ready.’

More On Liam Gallagher's New Music

Liam Gallagher has said in an interview with Q that he's working on new music with "two lads I know". He elaborated: "One's a multi-instrumentalist and he can play anything. Not that there's much to play on these songs. One guitar, acoustic. One guitar, electric. Drum kit, keyboard about that big [measures out 12 inches between his hands]. That's your lot. Proper sparse, really pumping. How it should be. We've demoed some songs..."

"I am not embarking on a solo 'career'," Gallagher went on to clarify. "Everyone should know that. There are just 10, 11 songs I've written that are eligible to be recorded. They've got flair, attitude, the melodies are sick and the words are fucking funny. We'll record them this year and release it next year. It'll shock people. It's a record written by me, that's got all the right ingredients and sounds well tasty. You won't be scratching your chin. It's not Pink Floyd and it ain't Radiohead. It's chin-out music."

Some More Bits From Liam Gallagher's Interview With Q Magazine That's On Sale Now

Liam’s most explosive interview yet
Calls Noel out for being jealous
Admits he still loves his brother
His Views on Coldplay

Liam speaks exclusively to Q magazine this month about his return to music, his emotional past few years, his thoughts on politics, throwing stones at Jamie Oliver’s window and of course, his brother Noel. Liam really didn’t hold back in what could be his most explosive interview yet.

The New Liam

Liam on the last few years… These last few years have been emotional. Eye-opening. Mind-bending. But emotional.

Liam on his girlfriend… Debbie saved me. No bullsh*t. Debbie swooped me up as I was falling, she just said, ‘Stop being a dickhead.’ She got me out of the house, introduced me to all kinds of people outside my world, got me doing new things. I’ve lived in London a long time, but I only really knew Hampstead. She took me to new places. I’ve been to Dalston, man.

Liam on his new fitness regime…  I run around seven miles every day, leaving about 5am. Unless I’ve been out on the sauce, then I’m getting in at 5am. Normally, though, seven miles.
Liam on climbing trees… Climb the odd tree too. Climbed one the other day. I was running on the Heath and I thought, ‘That looks like a nice tree, I’m going to climb that f*cking tree.’ Climbed it and sat there with my hood up for about 10 minutes.

Liam on waking up Jamie Oliver… It’s like Stella Street, round here: Jamie Oliver lives up the road. I got told off for throwing stones at his windows p*ssed-up, asking him to chuck down some bacon rolls.

Liam on becoming friends with his milkman… He’s f*cking top, he gave me a pint of lactose-free milk for nothing the other day.

Talking about Noel Gallagher... When Noel loses his fame… Nobody will really understand what it’s like to leave the bubble unless you’ve been in the bubble. When our kid falls out of the bubble he will fall hard. That big machine around him. The itinerary. Noel Gallagher’s life is all mapped out for him from the moment he wakes up.


Liam on laying off Noel… Oh, I know. I know. Lots of people say I need to chill out about Noel. Not until they stop Twitter. That c*nt will always get it from me.

Liam on Noel hitting back… He slagged me off when we were in the same band! He’d do his interview, I’d come in to do mine and they’d go, ‘He doesn’t like you, does he?’ I’d be saying how great he was. He still has pops. He needs to know that I ain’t going away.

Liam on Oasis splitting… I was more disappointed that Oasis split up. I wonder if he was. I’ve never heard him say he was disappointed about Oasis. No, he’s got what he wanted.

Liam on Tweeting about Noel… Well, yeah. I’ve heard they really annoy him. Someone told me the other week that the only thing that does his nut in are my tweets. Good. They will carry on and they will get bigger and better

Liam on reuniting with Noel…. Do you think I want to be in a band with that c*nt? He says, ‘Liam has to change.’ Get to f*ck. So I just tweet when he drops the ball because I will not let him get away with murder.

Noel was quoted as saying Oasis wouldn’t get back together “not even if all the starving children in the world depended on it”

Liam’s thoughts on this quote…  It doesn’t hurt me mate, doesn’t hurt me. If the guy doesn’t want me back in our band then I don’t want to either. I don’t want to be in a band with someone who doesn’t want me.

Liam on Noel’s celebrity friends… Whatever next? Robbie Williams turning up on his next record? I’d have to send the police round. Put it this way, Noel lives in a £17million house. That changes you, I reckon. You have appropriate furniture, appropriate kitchens, appropriate red wine that Bono’s recommended. And Damon Albarn becomes your mate. Fair dos, but not for me.

Liam on missing Noel… I miss the Noel in the film, that’s the Noel I know. And I do love him. I don’t sit at home crying into a picture of him, though, and I’m sure he doesn’t of me either. But I’m an energy and I bet he misses that energy.

Current affairs
Liam on Politics… I am partial to Prime Minister’s Questions though. I’m not bothered about politics, Theresa May and that other c*nt can get on with it

The boring music of today
Liam on retiring… No, it’s f*cking sh*t. It’s boring without me, isn’t it? On my game I will roast anyone. Anyone. Whether it’s interviews, photoshoots, on record or on that f*cking stage. And there are a lot of people getting away with murder on that stage from my generation.


New music
Liam on his new songs… We’ve demoed some songs and it’s sounding…I am not embarking on a solo ‘career’. Everyone should know that. There are just 10, 11 songs I’ve written that are eligible to be recorded. They’ve got flair, attitude, the melodies are sick and the words are f*cking funny.

Liam on when they will be released… We’ll record them this year and release it next year. It’ll shock people. It’s a record written by me, that’s got all the right ingredients and sounds well tasty. You won’t be scratching your chin. It’s not Pink Floyd and it ain’t Radiohead. It’s chin-out music.

Liam on his influences… Music isn’t influenced by music, I don’t think. It’s influenced by life. To have good music you have to have an interesting, varied life. Sh*t music comes from boring lives. The reason why so much music is boring, no matter how many bells and whistles and strobes they stick on it, is because they have boring lives. My wonky life over the last few years is going to make for better music.

That was Noel. We went to George Michael’s house after the Olympics. He was there, might have been with one of Take That. He was down at the bar at the end of the garden. George Michael was on at the Olympics, we [Beady Eye] were on at the Olympics, and where’s Noel? Watching it on telly, drinking a cocktail in George’s garden. This is the same man who slagged George off for Shoot The Dog. You’ve got some f*cking nerve. I said, ‘You alright, you seen that?’ ‘Yeah, it was alright.’ ‘You’re weird, you c*nt.’

Here's What We Know About Two New Liam Gallagher Songs Called 'Greedy Soul' And 'Bold'

During Liam Gallagher's interview with Q, the interviewer was played two demos of tracks on Debbie Gwyther laptop one was called 'Greedy Soul' and the other 'Bold'.

The interviewer said both tracks were absolutely brilliant and sounded nothing like Beady Eye or Oasis.

He said that 'Greedy Soul' was shockingly good. A stripped back beat-soul number which sounds like Mark Bolan playing Street Fighting Man, he added there is an urgency and clarity to Liam's voice on it that hasn't been apparent for a long time.

'Bold' he said was a more stately Plastic Ono Band affair. The interviewer said that his notes on his phone are unclear ("Lay it n me, U didn't di what I was tol... MEGA CHORUS") He  said that he listened to 'Greedy Soul' twice either side of it, so who knows really.

Liam Gallagher On The Consistent Oasis Reunion Rumours And More

Liam Gallagher has spoken about the consistent Oasis rumours and the upcoming Oasis documentary 'Supersonic' that is released later this year.

He told the current issue of Q "People ask me all the time about Oasis getting back together. I've read Noel saying "He's the one giving kids false hope.' For someone who hasn't done an interview in four years, its amazing how I'm doing that.

He added "You'll notice that every time he's got a record out or gigs booked, then all the rumours about an Oasis reunion start floating around. His record comes out and it all goes quiet. They're the ones spinning the bullshit. He was going on about how he was so busy, why would he be bothered about something that happened 20 years ago. Your management's idea to do the film (Supersonic). They rung me. I said 'about fucking time' But don't go in the press, 'I'm way too fucking busy for this shit. I've got a gig at Kendall Calling playing to a load of people dressed as bacon and eggs.' Ignition are the ones that bought this film into play and great. I'm well on board with it. But don't spin it that you're are far too busy for Oasis as they're the ones putting out the albums again and making the film."

Liam Gallagher On His Potato Tweets

Liam Gallagher has spoken about his various tweets on brother Noel calling him a potato.

He told the current issue of Q "Those are the best ones. I don't take photos where he doesn't look like a potato. The day he looks like a courgette, he'll get that aswell. Harmless fun"

Noel responded to Liam's tweets in an interview with the Toronto Star in June.

He said “We’ve not been on speaking terms since 1996,” Noel added. “I tolerated [Liam] up until he stopped being able to sing. When singing becomes shouting — I switched off then. I was just amassing money.”

Liam Gallagher Says Coldplay Look 'Beyond S*it'

Liam Gallagher has spoken to the new issue of Q Magazine about Chris Martin and Coldplay.

He said "There's are a lot of singers out there who are one step away from the Vicar. And very few that stare at you in the eyes. They've all got something to hide. They know they've done wrong. You ever get Chris Martin to look you in the eye? I'm sure he does put on a good gig, Chris Martin, the amount of money he gets paid. He looks like he's in the Tweenies, though. The whole band looks beyond shit. Have they got any pictures of The Rolling Stones? Probably not."

Liam Gallagher On the End Of Beady Eye

Liam Gallagher has spoken about the end of Beady Eye who split in October 2014.

The band formed in 2009 and was made up of Gallagher, former Oasis members Gem Archer, Andy Bell and drummer Chris Sharrock.

He told the current issue of Q "We were going to do Coachella but it got cancelled as it was going to lose us three pound fifty each. It was the first record where I haven't played America, which I was furious about but nobody else seem bothered. I was happy to pay for everybody, do it low budget, no security, on the bus and away we go. Andy Bell was on about tinkering with Ride again which is fine, but I'm not going to be in a band with people who are in 900 bands. Crack on do yer Ride thing, see you later. I didn't see a point in making a third album."

Liam Gallagher Believes Oasis Will Sail Again And It'll Be Glorious

Although the band broke up in 2009 after a furious row between Liam and his brother Noel, Liam admitted he would be open to a comeback "for the fans".

He told Q magazine: "I believe Oasis will sail again and it'll be glorious. If it's really about the fans, Noel, let's do it - because they want it. One year. Tour for a year.

"We'd smash it. My bags are still packed from my last tour, so I'm ready."

However, Liam, 43, doesn't appear ready to bury the hatchet with Noel, as he also accused Noel of being a **** and of having "small-man syndrome".

He said: "Do you think I want to be in a band with that ****? He says, 'Liam has to change.'

"Get to f**k....If the guy doesn't want me back in our band then I don't want to either.

"I don't want to be in a band with someone who doesn't want me."

"Every f**king soundcheck he'd stand in the middle and sing. The geezer's got small-man syndrome."

And he is furious that Noel is now pals with Damon Albarn, frontman of Oasis' one-time rivals Blur.

He fumed: "Whatever next? Robbie Williams turning up on his next record? Noel lives in a £17 million house. That changes you.

"You have appropriate furniture, appropriate kitchens, appropriate red wine Bono's recommended. And Damon Albarn becomes your mate."

Meanwhile, Liam - who is preparing to release new songs next year - claimed to be a "lone wolf" and says his girlfriend Debbie Gwyther is his only friend.

He said: "I can count my friends on no hands. I don't have any apart from Debbie. I do my own thing. I'm a lone wolf."

When asked What was that? Was it to be a frontman? Liam said "Without a doubt, without a doubt. Jealous, every f*cking soundcheck he'd go stand in the middle and sing. The geezer's got small man syndrome. He never had the nerve back in the day, so he joined my band and slowly wormed his way to the front, got his balls together. Same as Johnny Marr. Get yourselves over to the other side, play your guitars, play it with yer teeth, because there's no place for you over here. You know when your kid puts on make-up on and tries to look grown-up for a laugh? it's like that. They're playing at being frontmen. Get back over there. They look stupid.

"He's a great guitarist, our kid. He looks like Steve Jones when he's over there on that side. Be happy over there. But out front he looks like Don McClean. If he thinks he's Lee Mavers he needs to have another look at himself because Lee Mavers is dark and mysterious and you don't know what's going to happen with Lee Mavers. You know what's going to happen with Noel. His fucking sleeves, rolled up. It's like Dermot O'leary with a guitar. Fuck Off. He needs to fuck back over his side of the stage and strike a pose".

Liam Gallagher On Living The Quite Life, Noel, Oasis And More

The rocker has revealed he prefers the quiet life now as he prepares to launch his solo comeback.

Now, as he launches his solo comeback — which I revealed he would but he denied — the ex-Oasis frontman is a self-confessed recluse.

In a stunning interview, Liam reveals he’s cut ties with most of his former allies since his split from Beady Eye in 2014, dedicating himself to his “saviour”, girlfriend and  manager Debbie Gwyther.

That’s despite their huge fights, as revealed by The Sun on Sunday and Bizarre.

Liam told Q Magazine: “I can count my friends on no hands. I don’t have any apart from Debbie. I do my own thing. I’m a lone wolf.”

In his Nineties heyday Liam was a regular at celeb haunts like the Met Bar in London, with models and hangers-on desperate to be in his company.

Now he prefers more down-to-earth company  — like his north London milkman. Liam said: “He’s f****** top. He gave me a pint of lactose-free milk for nothing the other day.”

But that doesn’t mean he’s gone soft.

The string of insults Liam throws at his brother shows his venom is as strong as ever.

He blames Noel for the break-up of Oasis in 2009, saying: “Every f****** soundcheck he’d stand in the middle and sing. The geezer’s got small-man syndrome.

“He never had the nerve back in the day, so he joined my band and slowly wormed his way to the front, got his balls together.

“You know when your kid puts on make-up and tries to look like a grown-up for a laugh? It’s like that. They’re playing at being frontmen.  They look stupid.”

Liam compares Noel to “Dermot O'Leary with a guitar” and lays into him for being pals with former nemeses Damon Albarn.

He said: “Whatever next? Robbie Williams turning up on his next record? Noel lives in a £17million house. That changes you.

“You have appropriate furniture, appropriate kitchens, appropriate red wine Bono’s recommended. And Damon Albarn becomes your mate.”

He said: “Do you think I want to be in a band with that c***? He says, ‘Liam has to change.’

"Get to f***....If the guy doesn’t want me back in our band then I don’t want to either.

He added: “We’ve demoed some songs and it’s sounding…I am not embarking on a solo ‘career’.

“Everyone should know that. There are just 10, 11 songs I’ve written that are eligible to be recorded.

They’ve got flair, attitude, the melodies are sick and the words are f****** funny.

“We’ll record them this year and release it next year. It’ll shock people.

“It’s a record written by me, that’s got all the right ingredients and sounds well tasty.

“You won’t be scratching your chin. It’s not Pink Floyd and it ain’t Radiohead. It’s chin-out music.

“Music isn’t influenced by music, I don’t think. It’s influenced by life. To have good music you have to have an interesting, varied life.

“S*** music comes from boring lives. The reason why so much music is boring, no matter how many bells and whistles and strobes they stick on it, is because they have boring lives.

“My wonky life over the last few years is going to make for better music.”
