Hey man! still making tunes?

What a fucking interview 👏

I can relate to his comments about staring out the window at school and having zero thoughts with no ambition. I grew up in Croydon South London in the late 80s early 90s. We lived on a council estate and went to the local shitty schools. The most achievable ambitions we had growing up were to either be a van driver, work for the local council or a bin man. I remember sitting in class 1997, year 7 first year of secondary and doing exactly as Noel said, around us were all these exciting developments in the country New Labour, Millennium Dome and celebrations planned, the new tram system about to open. There was hope for those that could afford it! The Working class though we had to trudge on while all these things were happening. Labour bought out the new deal to help people back into work but like all governments turned sour raised taxes sold out the working class and broke all their promises! As a culture we demonised the working class as Chavs and poured the downfall of our country into them instead of turning a mirror onto our government.

This is one of the most underated themes in nitrome and I will always love this ost

They were my songs and I wrote them …. Yeh with help from the Real People ….

I miss those times.

I love his interviews, they’re always funny and entertaining. He also always answers every question with honesty imo

Your welcome. He has a point. With out Noel using people to get where he got to Liam etc would be nobody

Do you read music? The #1 question by non musicians.

Mark Lawson guided this interview perfectly.

Absolute Legend

future noel, went back in time and left that guitar behind the door.......trouble is where did it initially exist

'High Flying Birds'... What was he thinking?

His childhood was abysmal and he was hugely physically (not sexually) and mentally abused by his dad. He never hardly speaks about it and he doesn't bare grudges. Didn't like this man too much (no real opinion as I never met him) but I respect him hugely now since I heard his true story...

I totally agree that in the day that Oasis Are The Beatles Of The 1990s. In fact, in my hometown, in 2024, almost everyone is huge Oasis Fan's because we all appreciate Great Music. Times Have Musically Moved On . To most people, music and songwriting evolve with time, yet I'm glad that I live in this era ! Music Is Our Healer

hi thank u for ur service this theme song was the absolute best

You re a genius

What's the song playing @ 1:40?

he speaks the working class language and that's inspiring from a now millionaire

His melodies are magnificent as are his lyrics. Best songwriter working today.

Still one of my favorite 12 years later

Watched it again this Christmas Eve. it is a very highly underrated show. the musicians are multi-talented with amazing voices. the song choices were perfect. only wish it was on longer 2 hours would have been good

An absolute classic. Watch it every Christmas.

Noel probably has PTSD from a traumatic childhood but doesn’t know it.

Only now I realize the title of the game is a reference to how many programming languages call a method, using the parentheses symbols at the end of the name of the method...

I love this dude. He’s prob the best interview in music.

Once a year. Every year. Beautiful!

Excellent interview! The transparency of someone who feels good in his own skin. But he's bigger than his image. That's a fact! It's no coincidence that he's one of the best songwriters ever. Tks

Back again for another festive listen

you know when you get stuck and want to move forward, but can't figure it out. that is when I watch some of these old documentaries. I have seen this one a few times, and it just gives me the drive to carry on.

avoids any questions about his childhood in nearly every interview

Haven't been to Ronnie's since the late 80's. How I miss Ronnie, his banter, jokes and of course his wonderful playing.

Meet him once just walking on his own near Hyde park corner, no pictures no autograph just told him he’s a Fucking legend! He’s said I no kid noded and walked on cool as a cucumber. Fucking legend!

Talks so well

French people do talk weird, I can't understand a word they say, whoever invented the 2nd language back in olden days was an idiot, 1 planet 1 language would have been fine, try watching a foreign film when you're dozing off, very annoying.

35:40

Lend us a fiver. Lend us a fiver. Lend us a fiver

He raises a good point about learning French being pointless. I’ve only ever gone to that country under duress. Would never choose to. Come to think of it geography and RE were pretty pointless too. And they took of dropping music the food of the soul.

aaaw he was holding back tears in the action man bit

I was never a particular fan but I could listen to Noel all day

Hilarious hearing him called 'the best writer of his generation' when EVERY song they had hits with was stolen from another band who helped them become famous, which Noel and Liam admitted! Oasis and the boys are a con!

What a great interview

Host looks like Prince Albert of Monaco

I just don't understand how he has the audacity to speak of Amy Winehouse when he called her 'horse face'. How does anyone not know if mindless comments like that did not affect her? She may well have dwelled on that plus other insults, I am sure she realized she had a long face but boy was she beautiful when she was well. But then HE insulted Michael Hutchence and called him a 'has been' instead of having manners and saying 'thank you' when Michael H presented him with an award.. You can take the kids from the council estate but you cannot take the council estate out of the kids. And he shows it. Okay his songs are poetic but the man himself is far from. Plus he is nasty to Liam and the rest he needs to grow up as he spoils things for many as he forever throws his toys out of the pram.

"A lot of magic mushrooms lurking about... Someone needs to pick them!" Yeap... Things haven't changed much.

What he said about moving out and Irish mammies getting offended is the realest thing ever 😂😂

28:44 35:55 dude it's so funny how Noel kept bringing up Liam borrowing money from him

👁‍🗨🤔takes me back to the 70's growing up, up North.

'French? What's all that about.' lol I want it on a Tshirt.

Love u lee
