Noel Gallagher tells it as it is

Just heard an interview with him after recieving his brit award that made me feel good, he said that the brits is run by record companies and that oasis shouldnt have the lifetime achievment award, it should of gone to depeche mode!! my favorite group.
But he said of course they would not get it due to them never being on a big label, fair play to the man

he talks the talk but does he walk the walk? Could have refused the award when approached about it last year ... thirteen years shouldn't merit a lifetime achievement award anyway

mind, 13 years is a lot longer than many bands last, it's a lot longer than the beatles. would have been better if oasis split after 2 albums and were looked back on fondly, like the stone roses or something

Re: Noel Gallagher tells it as it is

Umm, he could have refused to perform that lengthy medley if he felt so strongly about it.

And most bands don't last 13 years because they have the courage to try something different after the third album. Oasis just churn out the same boring formula every time. People buy it because it's safe and predictable (and, of course, they've heard all those riffs before so it's only like buying a T Rex/Slade/Kinks greatest hits album).

Re: Noel Gallagher tells it as it is

I wonder if Liam will get a lifetime award due to his excellence on the tambourine and nasal warbling ?
