Gallagher Slams Bono, Yorke 2007-02-08 by Dave de Sylvia EMERITUS | 20 Comments | Noel Gallagher's talked his way into the headlines in his usual unceremonial fashion, reprimanding fellow mid-tempo rockers Thom Yorke and Bono for putting politics before the fans.
Speaking to the NME as part of the PR firm's upcoming Oasis special, Gallagher had the following comments for bands that neglect their back catalogues in favour of pushing political agenda:
Of Bono, he remarked, "Play 'One,' shut the fuck up about Africa," while Thom Yorke's crimes waranted a full paragraph. "Thom Yorke sat a piano singing, 'This is fucked up' for half-an-hour. We all know that, Mr Yorke.
"Who wants to sing the news? No matter how much you sit there twiddling, going, 'We're all doomed,' at the end of the day people will always want to hear you play 'Creep.' Get over it."
Noel Gallagher is working-class.

is it his duty to slam someone every two months?
| | | What a whore...
| | | Once Gallagher's music comes even close to being as good as Radiohead and Yorke, or even good by any standards, I'll let him talk this shit.
| | | He likes "Creep." He doesn't like Radiohead...This Message Edited On 02.08.07
| | | Good ol' Noel. As long as he's around, he'll always make an idiot of himself, and bring the 'elite' down out of the clouds while he's at it.
Thank God he's working class
| | | I don't see Noel doing anything good for the world...
Until he does, he has no right to bash Bono.
| | | Yeah he does. He creates a good lol every now and then from picking fights with his brother.
| | | Well..... > CURSE MY UNOBSERVANT SELF.
| | | Yarg, Bono sucks.
| | | Noel, people will always point and laugh when you open your mouth. Get over it.
| | | I thought all Noel knew how to do is drink......let alone form a coherent sentence.
| | | Dude, even though Bono and Yorke sometimes get on my nerves, I just wish Noel would SHUT UP.
| | | noel.....yeah you got mental issues man....
| | | bono hasn't hurt anybody
| | | Noel Gallagher is a douche bag.
| | | I think Noel is a really paranoid guy!
| | | "Putting politics before the fans"? Like, say, walking off stage in the middle of a concert because you're pissed off at your brother?
Shut the f--- up, Noel.
| | | Whos though worse Noel or Bono? I actually dunno, I tend to dislike them both as people
| | | Okay, approximately 400,000 dead people in darfur against Noel.
3,200,000 pints of blood against a donkey's bitch?
Noel, go home to your donkey.
| | | Thank you Noel.
