Liam refused to attend a recent Coldplay show fearing the band's tunes would leave him suicidal, after the event he was heard saying: "Do you see any razor blade scars? That's what I would have if I'd seen them."
However, Noel has openly confessed he is fan of the band and a friend of Chris Martin who he deems far from being moody and suicidal.
He said to BreakingNews: "The new songs sounded fucking great. I love him, he cracks me up. He's a really funny fucker. He's the toff and we're the toughs! I think he finds us pretty amusing, too."
Maybe there could be a touching duet in the pipeline?
Coldplay's new album 'X&Y' is released on May 23 and Oasis' latest offering 'Don't Believe The Truth' is released a week later on May 30.

As the release of the new Oasis album 'Don't Believe The Truth' draws ever closer, frontman Liam Gallagher has been laying into the current crop of successful bands, only reserving his approval, oddly, for Charlotte Church.
In the interview with the NME Gallagher, speaking about Franz Ferdinand singer Alex Kapranos, said, "He reminds me of f**king Right Said Fred. You put on 'I'm Too Sexy For My F**king Thing' next to their records and I bet you any money it's the same person. It's the same f****** person! He's just gone on the Atkins diet and grown his hair. Not my thing at all. I don't like quirky weird music. "
As for Scissor Sisters, he responded, "If that's what they call entertaining, then let them have it - bright colours and f**king weirdoes on stilts? I'm more entertaining than that ****. And I'll rip his f**king vocal cords out any day because he's f**king rubbish."
And the newest bands making an impression on the charts don't get off either. "F**king Kaiser Chiefs? Rubbish" he continues "Not 'aving any of that nonsense, they're just a bad Blur. I'm not having it - they wear make-up and their kecks are skintight" and Bloc Party "just remind me of a band off University Challenge. Like they're sitting on a panel"
As for Pete Doherty, the Gallagher brothers seem split on their opinions. Liam, was (not surprisingly) quite negative, saying "I'm not into smackheads. Smackheads need slaps. So what does the word Libertine mean? Freedom! He's f**king in the corner doing smack with a helmet on his head! There's nothing free about that. It's nasty."
However Noel was rather more diplomatic about the Babyshambles frontman, "Pete's always been an absolute gentleman to me and my missus," Noel explained, "He's incredibly well read and he's got a good soul. I tell you what, he needs to wash his hands more, but that's about it. He's one of the last bohemians, man."
But what about the Welsh operatic singing sensation? "It's Charlotte Church for me, man." Liam declared, "She could be the next Liam. She's got a great voice and she f**king has it. She knows how to get f**king hammered and she freaks people out."
Oasis release their new album 'Don't Believe The Truth' on May 30 while the first single 'Lyla' will be out on May 16. Both will be released on Noel Gallagher's own Big Brother Recordings label.
The LIVE FOREVER star, famed for starting feuds with other musicians and bands, has shocked his fans by uncharacteristically singing VOICE OF AN ANGEL beauty Church's praises.
Church came to fame as a straight-laced teenage classical vocalist - but since coming of age she regularly graces the pages of the UK's tabloids with her party-fuelled lifestyle and tempestuous romances.
He says, "She could be the next Liam. She's got a great voice. She knows how to get hammered and she freaks people out."
Diese Woche im NME: Oasis - The bruvvers are back! The world exclusive comeback interview
THE CORAL launched their new album with a storming LONDON show last night (April 24) – described by celebrity fan NOEL GALLAGHER as "fucking brilliant".
The Oasis star, who was there with bandmate Andy Bell, enthused about the Scousers after their 17-song set at the Astoria, which saw them play nine songs from forthcoming LP 'The Invisible Invasion', out on May 23.
Among the new tracks played were the lead-off single 'In the Morning', the next single 'Something Inside Of Me', album opener 'She Sings The Mourning' and set closer 'Arabian Nights'.
The band delved in to their back catalogue too, with a bunch of crowd pleasers including 'Dreaming Of You', 'Pass It On' and 'Calendars And Clocks'.

The WONDERWALL star belted out a cappella vocal parts from DON'T BELIEVE THE TRUTH in a 15-minute performance after a chance meeting with GRAVITY singer McNamara.
McNamara explains, "I bumped into Liam a couple of weeks ago and I'm only just getting over it now. I told him I was really keen to hear the new Oasis album, so he just sat down and screamed a load of tracks into my lug hole (ear).
"I told him I wanted to hear some of the ballads - but he blasted through all the heavier tracks for me.
"To be honest, it really hurt my ears."
Or maybe it's just because he can't stand 'em. Hm, it's a tricky one.
Anyway, after rocking up last week to Jean Christophe Novelli's Hell's Kitchen for his free eats, (and dutifully puking it straight back up again, I'm told.Tsk,) the simian Oasis frontman was asked if he'd be joining his brother Noel at Coldplay's secret MTV gig on Wednesday.
To which he rolled back his sleeves and replied in a typically erudite manner, "Do you see razor blade marks? That's what you'd see if I'd been to see them."
Ahem.
At least he wasn't as mean about them as his brother was about the supremely newsworthy Pete Doherty.
Convinced that the drug-addled rocker woudn't last a minute with Oasis, he predicted Doherty would be "injecting washing-up liquid into his sphincter" within moments of meeting the hard-bitten Wonderwallers.
Having only drunk a couple of glasses of wine Gallagher rushed to the toilets and was heard puking his guts up, rock n' roll! A witness told today's Sun: "You could hear some unpleasant noises coming form the cubicle. He was definitely being sick."
"Then he emerged from the toilet, cleaned himself up and headed back to the table as if nothing had happened. He was taking the mickey out of Jean-Christope, calling him Jean-Claude Van Damme." They added.
He did however return to his bad boy antics sometime later when he grabbed the shows Mark Duerden Smith by the balls after he continually kept referring to Nicole Appleton as Gallagher's wife.
OASIS Don't Believe The Truth (Big Brother) *****
At last, they've rediscovered what made them great, says Caspar Llewellyn Smith.
Do you remember the first time? The leathered sneer of Liam Gallagher that only a smack in the gob from his brother could silence, and his songwriting genius, and the swagger of their band (the 'Sex Beatles' is how a magazine called The Face heralded them) and the early records like 'Supersonic' or 'Live Forever' - quite possibly 'Digsy's Dinner' - that announced the aspirations of an era with such a rip-roaring snort that a young Prime Minister wooed them.
Shortly into the Blair presidency, Noel found himself at Number 10, asking Tony how he had managed to stay up through election night. 'Probably not by the same means as you,' the PM quipped, and that was 1997 all over.
Little is the same as it was back then, for all parties concerned, but this is where Oasis start to mend some broken promises. It feels like a lifetime since a new album from the Gallaghers justified the hype and rhetoric spun on its behalf, but this is so good, it makes you want to pour not one but two glasses of Jack -Daniels over your head.
Not so with the album that appeared three weeks after the Downing St party, Be Here Now, which was all bombast, or the successive disappointments of Standing on the Shoulder of Giants and Heathen Chemistry (bonus points if you can remember more than three song titles from that 2002 set); or the desultory showing at Glastonbury last summer; or the performance on I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here of Liam's sister-in-law, Natalie Appleton. These could be seen as more than failures of will or of imagination - rather as acts of cultural betrayal.
So a touch of cynicism seems quite in order when it comes to Don't Believe the Truth - a title that might disguise a message but is probably just more of Noel's gobbledegook in the band's own grand tradition. (And the sleeve - surely Oasis hold the record for the worst album sleeves of all time, and in this respect, their latest is no disappointment.)
Perhaps the band have come to a realisation of why some people feel like throwing crockery - Noel strikes a contrite note when he says: 'Someone said to me my songs sound like B-sides from 1994. I take that as a compliment.' What's more, where once he ran the band as an autocracy - booting out anyone who didn't toe the party line - these days he's started to listen, to share responsibility. So it is that he's only written five of the 11 songs, with bassist Andy Bell contributing two tracks, second guitarist Gem one, leaving Liam chipping in with three.
Let's not get carried away, but only two of those last are in the 'Little James' category (where he essayed the rhyme 'live for your toys/ even though they make noise'). One good Liam song immediately elevates this sixth album above the status of its two immediate predecessors, and everything else reaches a new target in quality control.
Noel is right to seize on that comparison with the band's early output, because the most helpful way of thinking about Don't Believe the Truth is to ponder what's not there: there aren't any of those coked-up guitar workouts, for instance, when the songs long outstayed their welcome. In fact, this is a record that doesn't sound at all druggy, but alive to possibilities. The bluster, the straining for effect, the attempt to live up to a grandiose reputation of their own making - all these are absent. Indeed, for the past few years, Oasis have been trying to emulate the sound of the old Oasis, rather than ripping off their peers, which is what they once did, as if they were politicians nicking rival policies. After taking their time with this record - its release was rumoured last year - that's all changed now.
So first single 'Lyla' appropriates a riff from the Stones' 'Street Fighting Man' before stumbling into the bar-room territory of the Faces; 'Mucky Fingers' is a one-chord homage to the Velvet Underground; 'The Importance of Being Idle' is very Kinks, which at least makes a change from the Beatles; while the way in which 'Part of the Queue' borrows shamelessly from the Stranglers' 'Golden Brown' completes a process akin to 'triangulation', which makes you believe you have the best of all possible worlds on offer.
These songs of Noel's apart, Gem's 'A Bell Will Ring' is otherwise this week's pick, but from Andy Bell's slow-burning opener 'Turn up the Sun' onwards, you're reminded of what genuine charisma means and your heart skips a beat, as it flares into life with the line 'I carry madness, everywhere I geeeeeeaaooo' - no prizes for guessing it isn't stand-in drummer Zak Starkey fronting up the microphone.
We have all made mistakes. So just as Noel would seem to have taken a long hard look at the band, we might ask ourselves some questions. Is swapping Pete Doherty and Kate Moss and crack for Liam and Patsy and the naive optimism of 1997 all that we have done?
Don't Believe the Truth isn't a novel - or novelty - record but it makes you care about Oasis again, and makes you believe they can matter again. So our bond with them is renewed.

Am 30. Mai erscheint das gute Stück namens 'Don't Believe The Truth' und das erste Konzert der Briten in Deutschland am 6. Juni in Berlin war schon innerhalb von 32 Minuten ausverkauft. PR-Professionalität und die qualitativ hochwertige Musik werden wohl der Grund dafür gewesen sein.
Die elf neuen Stücke des Albums kommen jedenfalls in gewohnter Oasis-Manier daher, weshalb sie sich auch ohne dieses PR-Bla-Bla bestens verkaufen würden. Lästermaul Noel ließ es sich aber dennoch nicht nehmen, ordentlich über Bruder, Tochter und Mariah Carey her zu ziehen.
Zunächst hegte er Zweifel an den neuen Zähnen seines Bruders, da sie genauso aussähen wie die alten, um dann zu meinen: 'Ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob es einfach eine Publicity Aktion war. Ich hab ihn niemals ohne Zähne gesehen und alle anderen auch nicht.'
Für den Musik-Geschmack seiner 5-jährigen Tochter hat er auch nur ein heftiges Kopfschütteln übrig:
'Sie ist auch ein Idiot! Sie mag Kylie Minogue und die Scissor Sisters, wie alle unreifen Kinder. Es besorgt mich sehr, dass sie mir seit drei Jahren 'Can't get you out of my head' vorträllert!'
Und zu guter Letzt hat er auch noch einen charmanten Kommentar für Mariah Carey übrig:
'Ich find sie scheiße! Sie ist ein Idiot! Sie schleppt immer einen Pudel mit sich rum. Ich hab sie nie getroffen, aber ihre Musik ist kacke. Aber jetzt, wo ich drüber nachdenke: ich liebe die Bitch!'
Vom 10.-12. Juni spielen Oasis auf dem Hurricane und Southside Festival.Im Herbst wollen sie für eine große Tour nach Deutschland kommen.
And don't forget: Am Freitag um 20:00 Uhr kannst du Noel im Videochat treffen - präsentiert von MTV. Die Fragen, kannst du schon jetzt hier stellen!

Though not normally known for his vanity, the guitarist admitted to MTV News that when deciding on video he has just a single concern.
"There's only ever been one criterion, and that's to make us look ten years younger. You get that right and I'm fine," Noel explained, adding that as a rule is not a big fan of shooting films for his songs.
"I fucking loathe videos," he explained. "This is not the reason why I started a band, to stand on a video stage all day and mime a song 500 times, knowing that when you get to the end of the 499th, you're thinking, 'I don't even fucking like this song anymore, it's stupid.' But it's a necessary evil for me."
Noel also added that while he's looking forward to the band's impending tour, he expects his relationship with his brother Liam to follow its usual, fractious course.
"It's always the same," he explained. "It starts off great and then somewhere, usually in America – I don't know why, probably the sight of cactus plants or something like that – it freaks Liam out. Then he oversteps the mark a little bit and it degenerates from there. It starts out great, then it just ends up being a bit of a shame, really. We'll see what happens this year."
COLDPLAY's CHRIS MARTIN risked serious injury on stage in LONDON last night - in an attempt to give a hug to NOEL GALLAGHER.
The band played a secret show at the Round Chapel in Hackney, east London, which was being recorded for a future broadcast on MTV in June.
During 'In My Place' Martin spotted Gallagher on the balcony.
He climbed up onto the main speaker stack and then pulled himself onto the balcony. Once up there he found Noel and gave him a massive hug.
However, Martin then found himself stranded on the balcony, fifteen feet from where the rest of the band were attempting to continue the song without him.
After standing on the edge, Martin then jumped back onto the stage below.
Earlier in the night Chris Martin had covered 'Lyla' as a tribute to his hero.

As soon as the shows sold out last Friday tickets were being offered for sale through the internet auction site for as much as several hundred pounds. However, with the exception of a very limited number of tickets sold through box offices, tickets for these shows have yet to be issued. Fans are advised that those claiming to have tickets on EBay are unlikely to have actual tickets to sell at this time.
Furthermore due to security concerns and the short notice on which the club shows were put on sale it is possible that many tickets will be issued on the night at the venues. In this case the credit card used to purchase the tickets will need to be shown in order to receive the tickets.
The British rockers, fronted by brothers LIAM and NOEL GALLAGHER, are set to release their sixth album DON'T BELIEVE THE TRUTH on 16 May (05).
But that release date is no longer a certainty after illegal copies changed hands on eBay's UK site for GBP9.99 ($19). The music will likely soon be available for anybody to download using file-sharing software.
The online advertisement read: "This is a very rare, full-length copy of the forthcoming Oasis album Don't Believe The Truth. This is a CDR copy which comes with promo artwork. Don't miss this opportunity to this album before anyone else."
The internet trader, known only as *********, is believed to have made over $570 (GBP300) from the illegal sales.
Bosses at Oasis' record label SONY are tracking the anonymous seller down with help from eBay.
The source of the leak is likely to be a review copy of Don't Believe The Truth. However, the promotional CDs are "watermarked" allowing Sony to trace the original owner.

Borrell wants to top Razorlight debut UP ALL NIGHT and sought advice from songwriter Gallagher, whose sophomore album with OASIS, ( WHAT'S THE STORY) MORNING GLORY, is generally regarded as the group's best.
So, when Gallagher recently attended a Razorlight gig at London's Alexandra Palace, Borrell seized his chance.
He says, "Noel came down on the second night, he watched from the side of the stage and was very complimentary. We were talking about second albums and it kind of reinforced what I thought.
"At the moment I can't tell whether I've got the album written or not. I've been writing since the last record came out so it may all be there. I'm going to get out and play some gigs, come back and have a look."
Oasis will play the Dodge Theater on Sunday 18th September. Tickets for this show will go on sale Friday 22nd April at 10am (local time PST) and will be available online at tickemaster.com and cc.com or charge by phone at 480 784 4444 and also available at the Dodge Box office.
However, prior to the public on sale of these shows, Oasis fans can access a special pre sale for these dates starting at 8.30am local time on Tuesday 19th April! To access the pre sale click on the link below;

Earlier this week Oasis announced that they'll be preceding their sold out summer stadium tour with a set of very special performances at a number of smaller UK venues throughout May.
As previously reported, tickets for the dates (four in London and a Scottish date at Edinburgh's Usher Hall) went on sale this morning (Friday April 15) at 9am. However, Xfm can report that (not surprisingly) the dates have completely sold out, with all the tickets for all five events being snapped up within an hour of going on sale.
This means that the 13,200 available tickets (Astoria - cap. 2000, Usher Hall - cap. 2500, Clapham Grand cap. 1500, Coronet - cap. 2200 and Hammersmith Apollo cap. 5000) were being sold at a rate of over 220 a minute.
Not surprisingly tickets for all the dates have surfaced on eBay (in fact, many were on sale on the auction site before the tickets were officially available), with a pair of tickets for the Astoria show going for as much as £165.00.

Oasis guitarist NOEL GALLAGHER has hailed his band's upcoming disc as their best work since debut album DEFINITELY MAYBE - but their POSITIVE TENSION rivals brand Oasis' distinctive sound "lazy".
Drummer MATT TONG says, "I always thought they were really lazy and unambitious."
While guitarist RUSSELL LISSACK adds, "Looking back they wrote some good pop songs, but I remember at the time really detesting them."
«Das ist ein verdammter Skandal», wütete er im Freundeskreis. «Wenn die Band das entscheiden könnte, dann wäre "Lyla" nicht die Single geworden. Aber die Bosse, wer auch immer das sein mag, haben das ja anders entschieden.» Gallagher sieht in der Entscheidung eine Missachtung seiner selbst: «Es ist ein Skandal, dass ich als Chef der Gruppe nicht entscheiden kann, was die Fans als erstes zu hören bekommen.»
Oasis habe keine Absicht, sich nach dem neuen Album zurückzuziehen. «Wir haben immer gesagt, dass wir so lange weitermachen, wie mein Bruder Liam noch seine Frisur hat. Wenn er eine Glatze bekommt und anfängt, sich die Haare nach hinten zu kämmen, dann hören wir auf.»
Die MTV News haben am Montag ein ganz besonderes Schmankerl am Start.
Das Warten hat ein Ende! Am Montag, den 18. April flimmert der nigelnagelneue Oasis Clip 'Lyla' aus dem kommenden Album 'Don't believe the truth' zum ersten Mal und exklusiv im MTV News Mag über euren Bildschirm!
Believe it: Anmoderieren wird das Video kein geringerer als Noel Gallagher persönlich.
Also, Wecker stellen, alle Termine absagen und am Freitag (?) um 19:30 Uhr das News Mag einschalten!
REAL NETWORKS US, in partnership with MTV Worldwide and oasisinet.com will host a webchat with Noel on Friday, April 22, at 7PM (GMT)! The chat will be filmed at TV broadcast quality. Stay tuned for more details and a direct link!

Die Veranstaltung ist offiziell ausverkauft. Das heisst das alle Kassen ihre Kontingente erschöpft haben, aber nicht unbedingt, dass es diese Karten nicht noch gibt. Die meisten Vorverkaufsstellen drucken sich ihre Kontingente komplett aus, wenn sie sicher sind, diese auf Jeden Fall verkaufen zu können. Das ist nicht schön, aber eben die sogenannte Marktwirtschaft. Ihr müßtet also ggf probieren, die grossen oder kleineren Berliner Vorverkaufsstellen durchzuchecken, ob sie Euch noch Karten verkaufen können - das sollte noch ein paar Tage möglich sein. Versprechen kann man das jedoch nicht. Bitte kauft keine Karten von Schwarzmarkthändlern - diese Menschen machen auf Eurem Rücken Kohle und zum anderen seid Ihr nicht sicher, ob diese Tickets wirklich echt sind. Dann wartet lieber bis zum Herbst... Ganz übel sind auch Internetangebote (ich darf hier keine Namen nennen) von Firmen, die sich brüsten "Karten für jedes Konzert zu haben" und astronomische Aufschläge kassieren. Ein OASIS Ticket kostet maximal 41 €, ggf. zzgl Versandkosten.
The star, 37, who recently finished work on the band's latest album, said: "It saddens me when I see bands like the Stones and U2 charging so much. They don't need the f***ing money!"
The Stones haven't revealed their tour prices yet but U2 want a reasonable £45-£85 for shows.
Tickets for Oasis's four London gigs next month are £32.50 - which we suppose is ok, Noel.
Noel Gallagher has revealed that despite not being bothered by political subjects the majority of the time, he will vote for Labour in the forthcoming General Election.
"I only get political every five years and that's when I get my ballot paper and go down to wherever it is I am living," he said in an exclusive interview with MTV News, "I laugh at the people who are obviously going to vote Conservative on the way in with their f**king wax jackets on and their sensible shoes.
"It's the only day I get political when I go down and vote, and I'll be voting Labour because I think it's morally right."
Gallagher also made no secret of his disrespect for the Conservative party, and its leader Michael Howard's cabinet, but also revealed another - less policy or politician-based – reason for not wanting the Tories in power.
"I will think that until the Conservative Party come up with a leader with an ounce of credibility or who is as good a public speaker or has got anywhere half the intelligence of Tony Blair and Gordon Brown" he continued, "[until then] they are finished in this country.
"Another reason to vote Labour is if you f**king don't and the Conservatives get in Phil Collins is threatening to come back and live here. And let's face, it none of us want that."
Oasis also just revealed details of a short UK club jaunt taking place to mark the release of their hotly anticipated new album 'Don't Believe The Truth'. For all the dates and ticket details click here.

BERLIN, Columbiahalle
2005 is certainly the year of one of the world greatest bands' return: Oasis will be playing at the Columbiahalle in Berlin on Monday the 6th of June 2005; the show is part of a set of special performances at smaller venues in the lead up to the release of their long-awaited new album, "Don't Believe The Truth". The album, which follows 2002's successful "Heathen Chemistry", is due on May 30th and will be preceded by new single "Lyla" on May 16th.
The group is very content with the result; Noel Gallagher remarked: "It's The Who. Lyla was specifically designed for pogo-ing. We wrote 66 tracks and Lyla was one that we revisited late on and it's ended up on the album. I'm happy with every single song on the album".
The show in Berlin is not going to be Oasis' only show in Germany, as they'll be performing on the HURRICANE & SOUTHSIDE Festivals in June : Oasis will be playing after the performances of such great artists as DIE ÄRZTE, RAMMSTEIN , NEW ORDER and many more.
OASIS show in Berlin, June 6th 2005
Tickets: 35,00 euros
Tickets will be on sale from April 14th on www.brosch-tours.net or by phone 040 ? 433039 (Kartenhaus Hamburg) and on all box offices in Berlin.

Das Warten hat ein Ende! Am Freitag, den 15. April flimmert der nigelnagelneue Oasis Clip 'Lyla' aus dem kommenden Album 'Don't believe the truth' zum ersten Mal und exklusiv im MTV News Mag über euren Bildschirm!
Believe it: Anmoderieren wird das Video kein geringerer als Noel Gallagher persönlich.
Also, Wecker stellen, alle Termine absagen und am Freitag um 19:30 Uhr das News Mag einschalten!
Ex-All Saints star Appleton will interview famous diners for the show, which sees chefs Jean-Christophe Novelli and Gary Rhodes training celebrities to be professional cooks - and the Wonderwall rocker will be waiting in the restaurant to support her first TV presenting venture.
She says: "Liam and my family are very supportive and I know they'll be watching every night and will come to eat in the restaurant. It's my first presenting role so I'll be nervous, but it's going to be great fun. I can't wait to sample the food and meet the celebrities. Hopefully I can inject some of my own glamour - I'm already shopping for outfits."
Apparently Sally is the second cousin of Lyla, whose name is the title of this latest release by the band from Manchester.
And more than eight years ago when he was writing the Oasis hit Don't Look Back in Anger, Noel included Sally's name in the lyrics.
'So, Sally can wait, she knows it's too late as we're walking on by. Her soul slides away, but don't look back in anger, I heard you say'.
Now the eldest Gallagher has gone a step further by calling his new composition after Sally's relation Lyla and dedicating it to 'Sally'.
But Noel appears to be not too sure about the true identity of Sally as his single gets a lot of radio attention before it arrives in the shops on May 16 followed by the the Oasis album Don't Believe the Truth on May 30.
Both single and album are expected to top their respective charts.
All Noel is admitting is what happened in 1996 when he was writing Don't Look Back in Anger.
"Liam mentioned someone called Sally so I put her in the lyrics."

Kommentare von Tim Qualtrough (Regisseur):
"I think Noel saw my videos for Muse's 'Butterflies And Hurricanes' and The Prodigy's 'Spitfire' and he really liked them. We met up and he told me that I could pretty much do what I wanted. The only thing was that 'Butterflies And Hurricanes' and 'Spitfire' were really effects-heavy videos involving lots of post-production. Noel said to me 'I love your Prodigy video, but they're a techno band and we're a '60s nostalgia act.' So we tried to incorporate some technology, but keep it appropriate for the band.
"The song's got these really childlike lyrics and these lovely harmonies which reminded me of my parents old records from the '60s - things like The Hollies. But at the same time it's a total stomping guitar anthem. So what we wanted was like a dark fairy tale with a contemporary twist. We tried to incorporate a sort of otherwordly Alice In Wonderland feel. (Stanley Kubrick's) Eyes Wide Shut was also a big influence. Basically it's about a girl who has a shit life going to a party in her garage. Or it's a contemporary urban narcotic fairytale, depending on your point of view.
"We filmed it at a place called The Round Chapel in Hackney in east London. I think it was very exciting for local residents. It made the cover of the Hackney Gazette and the band stopped to sign autographs for locals. The band played live, which was a risk for us because you can't talk to each other in-between takes if the band keeps playing. Still, they enjoyed it: they were jamming and generally messing about. I think they played an inpromptu version of The Who's 'My Generation'. The kids in the audience just loved it - I kept overhearing people saying, 'I can't believe we're getting a private Oasis gig.'
"Oasis were consummate professionals. They were obviously having fun. A lot of my queue were slightly concerned because of Oasis' reputation in the past but they couldn't have been nicer. It was a real treat.
