Posted October 5, 200816 yr Oasis’ guitarist Noel Gallagher has praised Coldplay, comparing a song from their new album to the Beatles. Speaking to the Belfast Telegraph, Gallagher said his opinion of the band differed greatly from his brother, Liam. "I listen to ‘Violet Hill’ and it's like The Beatles,” Gallagher said. “I just think Chris Martin is a great songwriter. "Liam f***ing hates them - thinks their stuff sounds like Annie Lennox, but Liam can be a f***ing idiot sometimes." Gallagher also spoke highly of U2, and specfically their frontman Bono in the interview. "I f***ing love U2 and I always have done - I love the size of that band,” he said. “Whether you like them or not, you cannot deny that U2 have written some great f***ing songs. People will not accept that Bono is sincere - in this cynical age, they think he's really just a c**t But he's not." Source: http://www.gigwise.com/news/46562/Oasis-No...-Of-The-Beatles
October 7, 200816 yr Coldplay = The Beatles, nope I don't see it. To me they now sound like an accessible Radiohead meets Pink Floyd. Especially as parts of Violet Hill remind me of the Pink Floyd track High Hopes.
December 12, 200816 yr After reading the title of this thread my immediate thought was along the lines of 'pot, kettle, black' but I see it's meant as a compliment from NG.
