Liam Gallagher Is At It Again...

[Gina Marie]

I know-who cares what he says.But wasn't he just all 'lovey dovey' w/ Bono recently? And I don't mean THAT pic.

He just mouths off to get publicity-the real reason I posted this is I love the last quote, about the Beatles.

Oasis' Liam: We're Better Than U2 Now
Sunday Mirror, April 21, 2002


Paul Davis

Oasis bad boy Liam Gallagher has taken a swipe at rivals U2, blasting "We're still more important than them."

The star was speaking after his band sold-out 80,000 tickets for their concert spectacular in London in just ONE hour. He said: "These are the fastest selling gigs we have done.

"We are going to f***ing have it at those gigs, because the kids deserve it, for still being with us. In 10 year's time, we'll still be rocking and putting on shows. That's what counts. We are still more important than U2 or R.E.M."

But one of Gallagher's old friends, Stephen Murray who used to party with Oasis for many years, said: "It's a shame Liam is saying this. How can he be so disrespectful to U2? Liam's mouth seems to get bigger when he has got a record coming out. Let's face it Bono must be laughing to himself. After all is said and done U2 are known all over the world. Bono is a music giant, but Oasis? They will always be known as the group who ripped off the Beatles' songs."

HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII GIIIINNNNNNNAAAAAAAA!!!!!!

*waves*

Listen, the drool-spillin roptatic case is just jelous that Mr Bono is clearly more sexier than him.......

 

[madonna's child]

Well, of course they sold out in London. The British cling to Oasis like there is no tommorow. They still haven't gotten over the Beatles breaking up.

ok lets just say this. "wonderwall" "champagne super nova" next???????? i couldnt tell ya. those are all i know. they havent done anything of significance in years. im sure bono is laughing his ass off, but like a lot of people on this sight, that remark pisses me off. besides the beatles, U2 are, in my humble opinion, the most important rock band in history. besides all the albums and historic tours, they have done a lot with charities and world causes. what has oasis done? make fools of themselves, yes they have done that. time and time again.

I agree, daisy...over here in the states it's like 'Oasis WHO??'

oh, by the way...here's an quote that really tells it like it is:

When looking back 30 years from now, how will U2 be seen both in a musical and spiritual context? What is their legacy going to be?

I think when you look back at U2, it will be for more than their rock music. I think Woody Guthrie said, "Music has to be more than good. It has to be good for something."

I think modern music is sometimes rubbish. Sheryl Crow's new album is very good, but it is not good for anything. It is not saying anything. It's shallow.

When people look back at U2 they will have to say, at this period of rock music, they are the band that contributed the most socially, spiritually, and politically. They will be remembered as more than just a rock band, but as a rock band that was good for something.

AMEN.

put THAT in your wall to wonder about, Liam.

Wouldn't believe everything you read, I read the actual article and still don't believe it, if he did say it I am sure he was takin the piss, every time I've actually seen him talkin with regards U2 he always declares them miles better than Oasis and the 2 bands are good mates, so I wouldn't take much notice

 

[Naya]

Poor Liam.

This kind of pretentious and arrogant wannabe stuff is exactly what's wrong with Oasis.

I think that ranks in his Top 3 "statements", along with "we're the best band in the world" or "we're better than the Beatles".

[kobayashi]

he's actually very smart.

we're all talking about him aren't we?

 

[UnforgettableLemon]

At least he's got confidence. I think the world needs a few obnoxious rock stars, if everybody was pious, I'd be pretty bored.

What you fookin' failed to realize was that the quote referred to the world of celebrity pro miniature fookin' golf, d'ya know what I mean? An' Bono's shite on the putt-putt scene compared to me, Noel, and especially Gem, d'you know what I mean? Now, Larry's got a mean stroke.

 

[Gina Marie]

Noel's cuter

Larry golfing? NOW you're talking Liam

 

[Zoocifer]

Arrogance and ignorance. It really is a shame about Liam talking like that since Noel writes most of the tunes... Did I mention that Liam can't sing in tune?

I love how Liam acts selfish and childish all the time. He must be taking lessons from his young child, Lennon. I'm waiting for the day that Liam does something that is not beatles-esque.

..every band/performer has this arrogance at whatever degree... some lock it up in modesty, others sing it to the world..you need a mixture of both to keep the music world interesting..Liam has plenty of respect for U2..he was blown away by the Earls Court 18th show and acknowledged them as the current band that would be sending Oasis back to the drawing board..there is a mutual respect between them both

Maybe because it's a part of his reputation as a badass?

You talk some shit.

 

[Saracene]

Aww, let the man have his fantasies,

 

[Blue Saint]

Oh.. sounds interesting. Especially since Liam once said something like "Standing on the soulder of giants" were not only The Beatles but also U2 etc. And after seing a concert on Elevation Tour he said "we have a long way to go..." or something.

Of course he says "We?re better, more important..." now when they are about to release a new album. That?s his attitude. But I really don?t think he believes in it himself.

But it would be interesting to here from Little-Liam exactly WHAT makes them so important? Being a beatles-wannabee doens?t make you important. The only big thing Oasis ever done is being opening act for U2, and kissing Bono (Liam)...

[yertle-the-turtle]

Noel had a pretty funny quote in Rolling Stone. It ran something like 'I wrote the best ****ing album and I wrote the best ****ing album ever and we're the best ****ing band ever and as far as I'm concerned the rest of those wankers are not in a position to string my guitar at the moment'. True or not I laughed at that one for days.

Don't get me wrong, I love the British! I want to live there! But it's true. Oasis is huge over there, they are not huge here. (the United States.) It's just like U2 in Ireland. U2 would sell out a concert in Dublin just as fast as Oasis did in London. But neither U2 or Oasis would sell out a concert that fast in ...say... Pittsburgh Pennsylvania.
