Pharrell Williams Wants To Work With Noel Gallagher

No comments

The Happy hit-maker is a massive Oasis fan and approached Noel for a collab.

Their unlikely link-up would be a world away from the “no-nonsense rock ’n roll” his estranged sibling bangs on about.

Noel explained: “Pharrell Williams is a dude, he’s a big fan of mine.

“He asked me to work with him recently. He told me that N*E*R*D were massive fans of Oasis.

“He was No1 in 105 countries when he asked so does he really need to work with the guy from Oasis?”

However, it wasn’t the Oasis songs that really excited fashionista Pharrell.

Noel went on: “He goes: ‘You know what was as important as the songs?’

“And I’m thinking: ‘Nothing was as important as the songs.’ And he goes: ‘The f***ing sweaters man. Your sweaters were cool. Where did you buy the sweaters?’ And I’m thinking: ‘The sweaters?! Better than Live Forever?’ Maybe that’s where I’m going wrong.”

Noel is close mates with Chris Martin these days but he reckons he nearly wrote Coldplay’s big hit before them.

He explained: “I believe that songs are out there and you’ve got to catch them and if Chris Martin hadn’t written it I believe I would have wrote Yellow six months later.”

Video: Liam Gallagher: On His Show In Manchester

No comments

The former Oasis man has been telling Radio X about his first solo live show and how “people shouldn’t stay at home in fear”.

Liam Gallagher has admitted that it was important that he put on a good performance for his first solo live show in Manchester following the terrorist attacks in the city.

The former Oasis man launched his solo career with a gig at the O2 Ritz - just over a week after 22 people were killed in a bombing at the Manchester Arena, following an Ariana Grande.
Speaking to Radio X’s Johnny Vaughan this morning (1 June), Liam said of the homecoming gig: “It was a mad one - and obviously really emotional.

“I just wanted to put on a good performance, because of what had happened. As much as I enjoyed it, I just wanted to do well, do you know what I mean?

“[The gig] went really quick, you couldn’t hear nothing… so I’m not sure if it was one of our best. But sometimes the emotion comes through, the occasion isn’t about playing great or singing great, it’s just about being there, you know what I mean?

“Listen, I live down here in London, I’ve lived down here for 20 years, my kids are down here. My heart’s in Manchester always will be, I will always be a Manc, as they say.”

Speaking as a huge benefit show was announced for the city’s Emirates Old Trafford Stadium on Sunday 4 June, featuring Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber and Coldplay, Liam added: “Massive respect for the people that came out. It’s good to get back in the saddle, to get back in and not stay at home in fear, you know what I mean?”

Tickets for the One Love Manchester concert, which takes place at the Emirates Old Trafford on Sunday 4 June, will be Katy Perry, Pharrell Williams, Take That, Niall Horan, Miley Cyrus and Usher. Tickets for the show are on sale now. Radio X will be providing live coverage of the event.

Liam Gallagher plays his second solo show tonight at Brixton’s Electric. Wall Of Glass is available to download now.

Paul Weller Thinks Noel Gallagher Is Better Without Oasis

No comments













Though many Oasis fans may disagree, Paul Weller has argued that Noel Gallagher is better now as a solo artist.

The singer-songwriter had nothing but positive things to say about Gallagher, Blur and Pharrell Williams in a new interview with The Guardian.

On Gallagher and Oasis, he said: "I prefer Noel's stuff now to what he was doing with Oasis at the end."

Weller also described Blur's comeback album The Magic Whip - which topped the UK Albums Chart earlier this month - as "their best yet".

He also shared his view on Pharrell Williams' global hit 'Happy', describing it as "one of the greatest records" he's ever heard. Do you agree with Weller's praise?

Last week, it was confirmed that Weller will perform a set at The Great Escape on May 16.
On the intimate concert, he said: "It's always good to perform in smaller venues and I'm looking forward to playing some new tracks."

Pharrell Williams Wants To Work With Noel And Liam Gallagher

No comments













Chart star Pharrell Williams has revealed that reuniting the feuding Gallaghers for a collaboration would make him Happy.

The singer and producer - who was guest vocalist on Daft Punk's Get Lucky - said teaming up with former Oasis stars Noel and Liam would be one of his dream projects.

The pair have not spoken since Noel stormed out of the group in 2009 following years of friction and he has his own solo career while Liam continued to work with his Oasis bandmates under the name Beady Eye.

Williams - who has worked with the likes of Snoop Dogg, Jay Z and Robin Thicke - said he wanted to bring them together.

"Who wouldn't want to work with the Gallaghers? Yeah, both of them," he said.

Williams - in the running for an Oscar for his track Happy from Despicable Me 2 - also longs to work with Sir Elton John who even inspired his own son Rocket's name with his 1970s hit Rocket Man.

"I really respect Elton John's music and I'd love to do something with him," he said.

"Contrary to popular belief, Rocket's middle name is not Man. But Elton John's Rocket Man song was a part of it and also Stevie Wonder's Rocket Love. But Elton would be really interesting.

"I would love to do a whole album with Stevie Wonder. That would be amazing. He doesn't need me, but it'd be amazing," Williams said.

The 40-year-old had a brief performance with Wonder at the Grammys last month as they played Get Lucky.

"We had a performance and I couldn't believe I was on stage (with him). I remember listening to all his songs for the first time in my grandmother's apartment, and then to be on stage in LA with Steve. That was like, 'Where am I? What's going on? Just don't wake me up'."

Williams, who is surprising a fan as part of Priceless Surprise campaign for MasterCard, said he was still pinching himself about his Oscar nomination, and his upcoming performance at the awards ceremony next month.

"I'm in disbelief. I can't believe that. All of this is an amazing moment and I just intend on showing the people my thanks," he said.
