Oasis Biography

Noel on Liam: "Liam's incredible to be in a band with, but as a person he's not my cup of tea at all.”

Noel after the parting of Bonehead from the band: "It's hardly Paul McCartney leaving the Beatles."

Liam on Robbie William's single 'Tripping': "I think it's f**king amazing, actually. Really entertaining. I think it's the best one he's ever f**king done. It's top, man. Top tune."

Liam on Liam: "I like to have lots of fun all the time. Life's too short to be thinking of the big grand plot. By the time you've grasped it, it's time to fly."

Noel says, "When it's all going swimmingly, I can see it in his eyes: 'Right this is going too well, it's getting too boring, I'm gonna start shaking this up. So he'll start picking fights, or he'll headbutt a fan, or he won't turn up for a gig, professing to have a sore throat, me and Liam are polar opposites."

Chris Martin thanked Oasis for being a huge influence on Coldplay - Liam showing his contempt heckled: "Come on, have a pop. You're a plant pot."
