re: I don't understand the Gallagher bros.

On playing guitar: “It's a human playing a tree. Three chords on a guitar: now write a song. I only know 11! But I tell you what, God help you when i find the 12th!”

If there were gold medals for taking drugs for England I would have won a shitload."

On the Beckhams: “Why is Posh Beckham writing a fricking book of her memoirs? she can't even chew chewing gum and walk in a fricking straight line at the same time, let alone write a book.”

On U2: "Play ‘One’, shut the frick up about Africa."

On drugs: “I still tell people that the 'Be Here Now' album is the best advertisement against taking cocaine. It goes on too long, it's smothered by its self of self-importance - the same as coke users are.”

On lyrics: "I write the first line and the end word, 'Supersonic', it's like, 'Well, what rhymes with that?' And you start off with 'A' and you go, 'Atomic. Bionic.' Then you go...'Gin & Tonic. Alright, that'll do.' It's no big deal. You just write it down, and people go 'Wow! Feeling Supersonic...Give me Gin and Tonic. Wow!' Basically, cos it rhymes

on Radiohead "I reckon if Thom Yorke fricking shite into a light bulb and started blowing it like an empty beer bottle it’d probably get 9 out of 10 in fricking Mojo."

“I go back to this: Fame is fricking wasted on these people. The new generation of rock stars, when have they ever said anything that made you laugh? When have they ever said anything you remember? People say, ‘They’re interesting.’ Interesting! That’s a word that’s crept in to music: ‘Yeah, man. Have you heard the new Skrillex record?’ ‘No.’ ‘Yeah, man. It’s really interesting.’ I don’t want interesting! Rock ‘n’ roll’s not about that. To me, it’s about fricking utter gobshites just being fricking headcases. Well, not headcases. But what I want, genuinely, is somebody with a fricking drug habit, who’s not Pete Doherty. Do you know what I mean?”
