Noel Gallagher Quits OASIS

August 29… Opened the Official Oasis Website and fell down of my chair… Noel Gallagher said goodbye to OASIS! His words stuck in my brain, and it’s really hard to read it… But here these word are:

“It’s with some sadness and great relief to tell you that I quit Oasis tonight. People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer.

As of last Friday the 28th August, I have been forced to leave the Manchester rock’n'roll pop group Oasis.

The details are not important and of too great a number to list. But I feel you have the right to know that the level of verbal and violent intimidation towards me, my family, friends and comrades has become intolerable. And the lack of support and understanding from my management and band mates has left me with no other option than to get me cape and seek pastures new.

I would like firstly to offer my apologies to them kids in Paris who’d paid money and waited all day to see us only to be let down AGAIN by the band. Apologies are probably not enough, I know, but I’m afraid it’s all I’ve got.

While I’m on the subject, I’d like to say to the good people of V Festival that experienced the same thing. Again, I can only apologise – although I don’t know why, it was nothing to do with me. I was match fit and ready to be brilliant. Alas, other people in the group weren’t up to it.

In closing I would like to thank all the Oasis fans, all over the world. The last 18 years have been truly, truly amazing (and I hate that word, but today is the one time I’ll deem it appropriate). A dream come true. I take with me glorious memories.

Now, if you’ll excuse me I have a family and a football team to indulge.

I’ll see you somewhere down the road. It’s been a fuckin’ pleasure.

Thanks very much.

Goodbye.

NG.”

So, all we can do it’s just waiting for Liam‘s words about the future of the band. Wonder they can go on without Noel “The Great”

In a bit… DOYS…

Oasis – Definitely Maybe (August 8, 1994)

Being so tired of listening to 2000-s music I’ve decided to tell you about the best classic release of 90-s, OASIS’ “Definitely Maybe”. Noel Gallagher, Oasis‘ songwriter and lead guitarist, wasn’t exactly dizzied by his band’s rapid rise to the top. “It’s all going really quickly,” he says. “But if this is pressure, give me more!” He never worried about the future of his band because he knew that he is gonna “get him a modern car, maybe a Jaguar…” (this is a line of the Oasis‘ song “Going Nowhere” which was written in 1990, when Noel worked in the band called “Inspiral Carpets“. He really knew someday he will be a millioner, his song will be sang in every corner and every walkman… His patience and talent made up a new power to make a great album, “DEFINITELY MAYBE“.

“Up In The Sky” is a talk to God that can’t make lifes better, can’t really talk to people, but Noel wants to welcome God in his world, talk to him, teach him to fly…

“Columbia” is my favourite tune on this album. It’s too long (6m. 17s.) but you really don’t feel the time flyin’ away with this song…

Oasis‘ first single “Supersonic” is the song withouh a sense in the lyrics, some kinda “She’ve done it with a doctor on a helicopter-she’s sniffin’ in the tissue sailing the ‘Big Issue’…”, but music is awesome, and if you are really feelin’ down this tune rises you up higher and higher…

“Bring It On Down” is the song about the “anti-fans” of Oasis. Noel says that you can listen to other bands, but you really must not come and f*ck up Oasis‘ live concerts if you don’t like it…

“Cigarettes And Alcohol” is killing with it’s dizzing guitar riffes and embarrased and sometimes disgusting Liam‘s vocals, but it tells us about the only thing that the youth needs. So truly, so bright, so kind and killing…

“Digsy’s Dinner“-no comments, the rock’n'roll classic of 90-s.

“Slide Away” is the one song that appears in 3 Oasis‘ albums: “Definitely Maybe” and 2 singles: “Whatever” (19.12.1994) and “Champagne Supernova” (1995) and this makes “Slide Away” classic and the one of favorites… Like a “Columbia” it’s long (6.32), but nothing can make this song bad or boring.

“Married With Children” is the song about Noel‘s ex-girlfriend that said him that he makes “music shite“. Bright and light tune finishes the album and you can’t think of anything after this…

Tracklist:

Rock ‘n’ Roll Star – 05:23

Shakermaker – 05:10

Live Forever – 04:38

Up In The Sky – 04:28

Columbia – 06:17

Supersonic – 04:44

Bring It On Down – 04:17

Cigarettes & Alcohol – 04:50

Digsy’s Diner – 02:32

Slide Away – 06:32

Married With Children – 03:12

Listen this album and you really find out the original classix of 90-s, the rest and the best. *)

P.S. “Definitely Maybe” is the best album of UK of the rest 50 years (UK poll result in 2008), and “Live Forever” is the best UK song ever (UK radio and TV poll results in 2009).

In a bit, DOYS.

P.S. Waiting for Noel’s solo album harder every day…

P.P.S. Don’t believe that crap that Liam has plans to be a movie star… He’s so busy and tired…

Oasis – Dig Out Your Soul (October 6, 2008)

I am sure most of you spend lots of time digging out your soul trying to understand yourself and through understanding yourself try to grasp this unimaginably insane world surrounding us!

I am doing it in my own way, by listening to Oasis‘ Dig Out Your Soul!

For those who just start listening to OASIS wonderful feelings are waiting ahead! OASIS music is bringing such a feeling of freedom, self-confidence and belief in own abilities that it really resembles an oasis at a desert whispering that maybe it’s gonna be the one to save you… The songs are about YOU, each and every one, texts are not a masterpiece but they are so close to what you feel right now, right here, that you just can’t stop feeling yourself a hero of each of their song which have already become talismans of your life! This is OASIS! Once you love them you can’t stop anymore!..

Well, of course Liam, no matter how often he rejects this, is totally “living” John Lennon and OASIS too could never refuse being too much like The Beatles sometimes. But this is not awkward: writing songs which are like songs you love most is natural! Of course, you can’t avoid similarities and associations! They are also blamed for being too self-enamored! But they are OASIS! They have the right to love themselves if the whole world does! Though I would dispute over Noel’s being the best songwriter in the world which he likes to repeat so often…J))))))

We can discuss these crazy brothers behavior for centuries but they have a better topic to be offered: their latest album, Dig Out Your Soul. This album was soooooo longed for that there were probably too high expectations and when it was released at last it got a huge pile of criticism-full reviews! In this album not only Noel but the band all members had a role in songwriting. The best song in the album, warmly accepted by the critiques, and of course, created by the Noel The Great, Falling Down, has a rich sound and ironic words that get stuck deeply in your mind:

If you won’t save me please don’t waste my time…

Liam‘s wonderful melancholic ballad I’m Outta Time is quite philosophical and deep … These words are especially killing (though Liam took it from somewhere else, but still!)

If i’m to fall, would you be there to applaud, or would you hide behind the law…

In general this album lyrics are much more mature making us hope that the Gallagher brothers have at last grown up! (though maybe it is better not?)

The Shock of the Lightning, the first single, from the album is very energetic with a huge drive and is just like a crazy traffic running in front of your eyes!

Waiting For The Rapture has very solemn drums and is one of «non-Noel» songs. It’s quite different from OASIS music, very bluesy and you can hardly believe this is Oasis!

Bag It Up is the opening song which guitar riffs you make you feel you’re riding a motorcycle taking you on a speedy tour! It has absolutely unsolvable lyrics pronounced with such a confidence by Liam that you think it’s you that are probably out of your wits, not him! )))

The Turning is very rhythmic (all in all it seems OASIS worked hard and put a special accent on drums in this album!) with a “harder” vocal, a very good song that has drive and inner strength!

We live with the numbers,
Mining a dream for the same old song,
What hope for the turning,
If everything you know is wrong…

High Horse Lady deserves special attention due to its interesting vocal as if coming from a tube and wonderful claps making it so special! Ain’t Got Nothing is a very “I don’t care song” sooo characteristic for Liam (one of his songs in the album) and is actually based on a true story about Liam’s being caught and taken to prison though he hadn’t done anything.

The Nature Of Reality is another strong song with thoughts of dialectical nature that is coming from afar and attacking you with its repeating heavy guitar solos and rhythmic and somehow different form usual OASIS style besides that nice part with ay-I-ay-ay.

The most boring monotone song in the album that I personally hardly listen to is Soldier On. It has no melody even, very inert and nothing new.

I like especially To Be Where There’s Life lyrics which I wrote below!

Dig out your soul, cos here we go
We gotta move, it’s what we do
Let me come through
Let me take you away to be where there’s life
To be where there’s life…

So let OASIS take you to where there’ s life…
