The Dark Lord Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 (edited) A genius and God of rock and roll. No other way of looking at it. AND he's always value for money in interviews. A hoot a minute. Very intelligent man. He played that If I Had a Gun song. Top notch. Edited January 6, 2012 by mercuryl Quote
The Dark Lord Posted January 7, 2012 Author Posted January 7, 2012 Really? I didn't get that from the interview. Quote
hairyhaw Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 [quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1325896076' post='1489707'] Loaded off his head though. [/quote] Nah, he's been off the meths for years (hence "Gas Panic" on SOTSOG). Doesn't do much stronger than Guinness and Silk Cut now. Quote
hairyhaw Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 [quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1325898730' post='1489737'] still shaking like a shitting dog though. [/quote] Quote
leftyhook Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 (edited) hmmm.....not my cuppa. HFB album is just Oasis to me. Predictable songs dictated by the chords they know. (Wonderwall 2 seems to be on the album) Sorry mate but in the grand scheme of rock'n'roll, this guy aint a God. I find the Gallagher's obnoxious. Everyone to his own!

He also plays guitar without the need to get all w***y and widly about it. To me, he deserves his seat at the top table. He's also coool as you like. I really don't agree with that bloke above who said he was shaking or loaded. But again, each t his own. Quote
thebigyin Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 Only one 'Gallagher'....the late great 'Rory'....now he could play guitar. Quote
waynepunkdude Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 The title of this thread conjured a bad image in my head. Anyway by watching the Graham Norton show you have forfeited any right to an educated opinion Quote
daz Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 He said the thing that annoys him most is when he has a new album out and people ask him "but is it as good as your first album though?" (it never is. Thats the only thing they have ever done that i liked. All their influences out in the open writ large) Quote

I also like his, imo, very dry sense of humour. Quote
daz Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 [color="#000000"]Father Noel[/color] Furlong, is my favourite Graham Norton creation. Quote
xilddx Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 I've got a lot of time for Noel, but none for his music. What I've heard of NG's HFB (a ridiculous name) is dull dull dull. Quote
risingson Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 I have a lot of respect for Noel. Not least of all because he's actually very funny and clever, but because he's achieved a lot in his life and got where he wanted to be, and I really admire that. Also, love his music or hate it, he's written some hits and has a profound affect on British music. Liam on the other hand is just very lucky that he was tolerated for so long by the band, and other people in general. Quote

Superbabe. Didn't realise she was so tall. Quote
wombatboter Posted January 8, 2012 Posted January 8, 2012 I saw the show too (not too much going on around here on Belgian television) and love him or hate him : he does know how to write a song and if that moves you or not : a lot of people like him so "50.000.000 Elvis fans can't be wrong". He's not a great singer also but I heard the song for the first time two days ago and I can still hum it, that means something... Quote
BigAlonBass Posted January 8, 2012 Posted January 8, 2012 I now despair for a Society that finds Noel Gallagher 'talented' and classes Amy Pond a 'Superbabe'. Quote
Big_Stu Posted January 8, 2012 Posted January 8, 2012 Seems like a decent enough bloke;& much better for it from spending time away for the [s]Ian Brown copyist[/s] Liam. The kind of bloke you'd have among your mates enjoying a pint & talking crap; but a "God of Rock" he isn't ........................ not by a couple of dozen light-years. Quote
