    Good god no. He's a one trick pony (a trick that he pilfered from the Beatles). He's written two songs - the fast rocky on and slow ballad - and for the last ten years has been pumping them out with slightly differend nonsensical lyrics.

    Not pushed about the music but he's a brilliant interviewee. I'd buy a mag if he's on the cover because his interviews really make me laugh.

    Songs are ok,john lennon wannabe :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,854 ✭✭✭Sinfonia


    He's a twat.

    Some of the music is ok, nothing special imo.

    Noel Gallagher....Bah.....

    He referred to Bloc Party as a band off University Challenge! He's made being stupid cool. I DESPISE him! Just thinking about him makes me angry.:mad: And his music is mediocre at best.

    Well its better to try imitate greatness than mediocrity

    But then you just end up with great mediocrity :)


    Meh in terms of legend status for me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,283 ✭✭✭Smegball


    One of the most overrated musicians ever, can't stand him at all tbh.
    Some of the songs are alright I suppose, Live Forever, Wonderwall, Supersonic.
    The majority of the songs sound very similar, and he's just a prat in general like his brother.

    I hate it when great musicians/songwriters put on this air of modesty. Its so ****ing false. I prefer people to just say what they feel, if you think you are brilliant, then just say it!

    Genius, when does someone jump into that category? What a load of bollocks.



    On Noel Gallagher, writes good catchy pop/rock songs and has a lot of other **** like orchestra arrangements and little guitar parts in the songs that many other bands neglect.


    If you want to laugh - and if you have a sense of humour - click in Noel Gallagher interview into YouTube....Oasis are great at insulting all the bullsh!ters in music.


    I think a lot of people don't like Oasis because of their attitude but that shouldn't really get in the way of their music. Their first two albums were great in my opinion.

    Oasis don't really sound like The Beatles to be honest. I think the guitars sound more like the Sex Pistols on the early albums.

    Who the fcuk is a genius in music? It's such a sh!t question.
