Noel Gallagher has said that the way the city of Manchester co-opted the Oasis song Don't Look Back in Anger as a rallying cry in the wake of last month's terrorist attack left him lost for words.
Gallagher was speaking before a screening of the Oasis documentary Supersonic in Glastonbury's William's Green tent at Glastonbury Festival on Friday.
The former Oasis singer, who recently turned 50, said that when a minute's silence in Manchester following the attack was interrupted by a spontaneous rendition of the song, "for the first time in my life I was f------ speechless".
The song was used as a defiant hymn following the bomb at a concert by Ariana Grande which killed 22 people, including children and young music fans.
"The fact that people spontaneously rallied round that song is an incredible thing," Gallagher said.
He added that he has no idea who the song's central character Sally is. "Who the f------ hell is Sally? I don't know anyone called Sally," he said.
Gallagher's brother Liam, with whom he has long been feuding, is playing at Glastonbury on Saturday, but Gallagher refused to comment on whether the pair might reunite at the event.
Previously, many fans expected the warring brothers to appear together at the Manchester One Love benefit concert, organised by Grande to raise funds for the victims and held earlier this month.
Afterwards Liam, who performed at the event and sung with Coldplay's Chris Martin, criticised his brother for not attending.

Noel Gallagher On The People Of Manchester Singing Oasis' 'Don't Look Back In Anger'

The Oasis guitarist was speaking at a Q&A session before a screening of 'Supersonic' at William's Green
Noel Gallagher has said that Oasis may have “ruined it” for the current generation of artists in terms of creating great rock star stories, quipping: “Harry Styles isn’t going to be fucking coked up at Glastonbury, is he?”
The guitarist was speaking at a short Q&A at Glastonbury this evening (June 23) before a screening of the Oasis documentary Supersonic at William’s Green.
Asked for his take on why musicians and bands seems to be more “well-behaved” in comparison to Oasis’ heyday, Gallagher said that the band weren’t affected by pressure from their label or the music industry in general at the time.
“We were signed by the greatest record label [Creation] there ever was,” he said. “Alan McGee [who signed Oasis to Creation] did not give a fuck whatsoever – we gave less of a fuck than him. Minus fucks were given.
“I think bands like Oasis, Primal Scream and The Verve – we might have ruined it. Because if your share price depends on us… well, then you can fuck off. Harry Styles isn’t going to be fucking coked up at Glastonbury. So we might have ruined it for the next generation. But fuck it, you know what I mean? You weren’t there.”

Noel Gallagher has been speaking at Glastonbury 2017 this evening (June 23) while introducing Supersonic, a documentary about Oasis.
He was interviewed by a host from the Guardian newspaper before the film was screened at Williams Green at Worthy Farm.
Brother Liam will perform on the Other Stage on Saturday (June 24) and Noel was asked about continuing rumours of an Oasis reunion.
Find out what we learnt about a possible Oasis surprise at Glastonbury 2017 and much more below.
1 – Anyone could be Noel Gallagher
Or so he claims!
“I wasn’t born with a gift. Being a musician happened by chance. Anybody could do what I do.”
But he did add when he played his first ever note “a light bulb came on” in his head.
2 – Oasis could only have happened in Manchester
He said the success of the band which he and brother Liam made famous was all down to the climate.
“When you’re indoors all the time you’re watching football, you’re taking drugs or making music.”
He also said bands from Manchester’s past inspired him.
3 – He was left speechless by people singing Don’t Look Back in Anger after the Manchester attack
“I’ve got to say I was sat at home watching the minute’s silence when the crowd spontaneously broke into Don’t Look Back in Anger.
“For the first time in my life I was f***ing speechless.”
4 – He still doesn’t know what the song is about
Don’t Look Back in Anger was written in Paris, while Noel was drunk, he said.
5 – The Sally confusion continues
There’s been much debate about how Sally made her way into the song and who she even is.
Some said Liam came up with it to make the song work better.
But at Glastonbury Noel said Liam told him it was actually Noel’s idea, though Noel himself doesn’t remember.
He said: “Who the f***ing hell is Sally?”
6 – Noel’s a bit spiritual
Despite saying he had no exceptional musical talent, Noel suggested the songs which have really succeeded from Oasis’s back catalogue came from a place which wasn’t his head.
He said: “All of the songs which have gone down 3/4 generations don't come from me
“They come from somewhere else.
“I seem to have a way of putting universal truths very simply.”
7 – He’s not a romantic
“I’m not an overly romantic person, as my wife will testify.”
Poor woman! She did get a lot of love from the crowd though.
8 – He and his wife come to Glastonbury every year
Noel insisted he doesn’t always travel around in 4x4s either, when asked by the Guardian’s Q&A host.
9 – He thinks Glastonbury is simply the best thing around
“This f***ing festival is the greatest gathering of people on the f***ing planet. All the other festivals are just gigs in fields.”
Strong praise for Somerset’s world famous gathering.
10 – Oasis might have ruined all the fun for musicians these days
Asked about the band’s antics with drugs and sex, captured in the Supersonic documentary, Noel said the fun in his day might have resulted in a more controlled atmosphere now.
He singled out One Direction star Harry Styles, now trying to go solo, to illustrate his point.
“Harry Styles ain't going to get caught snorting coke off a prostitute.”
11 – The Oasis reunion wasn’t ruled out – it could still happen at Glastonbury 2017!
He was asked about the future and his ‘next’ project.
The crowd at Williams Green chanted ‘OASIS, OASIS’.
And the questioner pointed out two other members of the band are at Glastonbury this year.
In response, Noel said: “No comment. Enjoy the film!”
So it’s still unlikely, but there remains a slim chance of a shocking Oasis reunion at Glastonbury 2017.

Liam Gallagher hates having to pose for selfies with fans because they are “f***ing hard work”, he says.
The former Oasis rocker, 44, hankers for the old days when fans used to ask him for his autograph instead.
Liam said: “I prefer to sign something than to have my picture took. Having a picture took is just f***ing hard work.
“I prefer to shake someone’s hand and give them a f***ing hug. The photographs are a pain in the arse, but that is just the way it is.”
But Liam, who releases a solo record later this year, enjoys his rock and roll success and believes it stopped him becoming a “zombie” addicted to drug Spice in his hometown Manchester.
He said: “Without a doubt rock and roll saved my life and still continues to.
“I do not know where I would be. I would be in Piccadilly Gardens with the zombies smoking Spice.
“It is the best thing since sliced bread. It is good to be Liam Gallagher, without a doubt. It is f***ing great being me, even in the bad moments. It is the b*****ks. There is no one out there like me, man.”

Steve Coogan
This is seriously the best thing you’ll hear all day.
It’s a busy time for young Liam Gallagher. He’s just released his first solo single, performed his first solo gigs, now he’s getting ready to take on Glastonbury when he plays the Other Stage on Saturday evening.
Interviewed by journalist John Doran for the Noisey British Masters series, Liam tells the tale of a night out with Alan Partridge star Steve Coogan back in the hectic 90s.
I love Coogan. I partied with him once, there was a wedding going on, Me and him are sat at the bar, having a couple of drinks. Loads of people come in and they’re going ‘Liam, are you going to sing Wonderwall?’.
“I was like, no none of that nonsense. He’s going, ‘Leave him alone, I’ll sing a song’. And I don’t think they really knew who he was. And he got up on stage and sang It’s Not Unusual by Tom Jones, but fucking mega.
“Anyway, we drank loads of Guinness and gone up to our room and we crashed out. I woke up in the morning and I see this lump in the bed. I go, ‘Oh God, who’s this?’. A little tap on the fucking [shoulder].
“He’s fully clothed and he goes [mimes throwing back duvet] ‘Ahaaaaaaa!’”
