Star Treatment and the new Arctic Monkeys album in general is far more interesting lyrically than most of the songs Noel's written in the last 20 years tbh.and as far as Doherty goes, he's up there as one of the most literate and personal songwriters out there, people just see him for a smackhead, if you gave him a chance you might be surprised. Not knocking Noel either before you all jump on, just don't think he's as good as Turner or Doherty when it comes to lyrics. He even said himself that lyrics are almost an afterthought for him, which is impressive tbf considering he wrote masterpieces like Live Forever and Slide Away while not having a clue what they were about. Fucking hell he knows how to write good melodies though, something Alex Turner seems to forgotten how to do
@@laurencesealey4123 who gives af about lyrics if the song is shit!! Melody always the most important thing the lyrics are a bonus no point in someone saying something so profound but it sounds shit how is it meant to grab a listener
@@ryanlucey1196 depends what you're looking for, sometimes i want something catchy and melodic other times i prefer something more focussed on the lyrics or the actual playing. Whatever floats your boat fella, tbh when i wrote the original comment i was half hoping for an internet argument but i cba now
The interview seems to really value lyrics. From my experience, the only people who are all about lyrics are those who either don't make music or who don't really understand what makes music so great. Mcgee was spot on, melody is what matters most and melodically, Noel was on another level.
I think AM did what Oasis never managed which is stay consistent album to album over the years, at Noel's best though Alex Turner can't really touch him
It’s not really a like for like comparison. The easier more appropriate comparison is Damon Albarn / Morrisey/ Alex Turner. Noel is an instinctive, visceral universal feeling kind of songwriter. Much more McCartney than Lennon school. Alex, Damon and Morrisey are more cerebral / observational. It just depends what you like.
dont think alex turner has ever wrote a song that has made me think “thats an amazing song” they’re all boring an so generic, noel is one of the greatest songwriters of the 90’s.
Coldplay never made an Impact like oasis. Fk it was literally beatlemania all over again in the 90s. Coldplay sold out let’s be honest. Going out & getting Beyoncé, Rihanna & co On their records They sold their souls and sold out. If oasis had done that I wouldn’t be listening today... but true to their nature they never did! That’s why the Gallagher’s will always be superior.
@@tonyh8965 And Coldplay quite literally admit to the whole creation of this era. Oasis quite literally made it their "right place, right time" and everyone else around and to follow (Blur and Radiohead included) were quite happy to enjoy the wave. At least Coldplay admit it. Blur used it to boost themselves up to a near (intheir eyes) equal footing for a short period and Radiohead would have been a pretty good Indie band but the whole scene at that time meant it became much more mainstream. Every band including the likes of Manics benefitted from the whole scene which was driven by Oasis. The Oasis phenomen meant lots of bands got a lot more (deserved) airplay than they would have and thus deservedly got more exposure to a larger audience. Every other band in the UK was an also-ran-to or doing well because of Oasis in the 94-96-98 UK scene. There was a bigger market for "Oasis haters" than any other band could count as fans of their music. That is how much they dominated...........and a vast majority of those "Oasis haters" have to stop their toes tapping or inner singing the songs to this day.
I personally think Alex Turner comes up with better guitar riffs. Lyrics and melody wise wise Noel wins. I feel Arctic Monkeys didnt capitalise as much as Oasis did during their first 2 albums. I've herd Alex Turner say he turned down big gigs during their first 2 album's because they didn't feel ready but Oasis just went for it and said yes to anything despite Oasis being better live later on when their success calmed down.
I agree turner is much more talented and original I love oasis but Noel really did nick too much off others and didn't really change it been an oasis fan since day one but when Artic Monkeys came out with their first album it was like listing to RATAM for the first time ✌️
Noel gives no Fock bout guitar He is a genius song writer A band without great songs is nothing. The song writer owns it He is the boss, I know't I mean? 😎
Literally all the biggest and best artists ever have done this. The beatles, Led Zeppelin, Bowie...the list goes on. Noel Gallagher is a better songwriter than turner. Its just the truth.
@@joaomanuel2 in 20 years no one will care about the Arctic’s in the same way they do about oasis. Oasis crossed over to all ages and have a hundred songs, anthems etched in people’s memories. We are yet to see artics give us a live forever, champagne supernova, don’t look back in anger etc... where virtually every single person knows the lyrics even if your not a fan... that’s the difference. Comparing oasis and the artics is like comparing The Beatles to The Darkness lol
The thing is Noel's best songs are copies from other artist while Alex is more versatile and I've never heard anyone saying that he ripped of some other artist, but Noel had more acttitude and begin his music in a specific time for England so he made a huge impact on people that no many musicians can, so I guess he "wins" even tho Alex has better and more original lyrics and melodies (they are two of my favourite songwritters of all time, they changed my life in many different ways so I don't see why to compare them)
I’m avin Alex Turner & Pete Doherty every day of the week, when they first come out with Arctics & The Libs they were bang on the money just as much as NG I think 👊👊
The amount of good albums alex has made as such young age comapred to noel that hit trough at the end of the 20s. Alex has many many more years that nole to create good songs
@@evanphillips570 wtf has any of that got to do with song writing? I know a guy down my local mic night that is in a different league to alex Turner in terms of guitaring. Ultimately it comes down to riffs & whilst Noel has nicked a few he’s also created a few iconic riffs. I would dare to say Noel had more iconic riffs than Turner so doesn’t that make him the better guitarist? People get too caught up in the technical aspect... a great song writer writes tunes, easy or not that people remember & Noel has written some memorable solos too like the ‘champagne supernova’ solo, live forever etc... it’s about the whole thing not just one or two elements & Noel in that aspect is levels above alex Turner.
It really just depends what you’re looking for. The guy was alluding to Pete Doherty and Alex Turner being better wordsmiths, which is most likely the truth, so if you’re really into that then I’d understand why you might get more from their music than Noel’s. If you’re looking for universal songs crafted in a way that appeal to masses across the world, then Noel is your man. It’s all subjective.
@@BillyF752 ease up, he never did. He sung about half as well as Liam, about 1% of the front man and his song writing ability doesn’t even match Noels B sides. Take a seat
Noels a one trick pony, albeit a ridiculously fantastic one trick he had, or did 15 years ago. Alex Turner is a much much more versatile and completely different musician. Turner is for the proper music lovers.
A proper music lover wouldn't claim Noel is a one trick pony. Compare Oasis's 1st and last singles for example. I don't think Turner is in the same caste.
As a sheffielder I love Alex’s Lyrics as they resonate more with me. But Growing up with Oasis they were on another planet to the Arctic Monkeys. Noel Gallagher is a prolific songwriter who when he’s gone will sit comfortably with Lennon McCartney and Dylan. Oasis were a movement of millions and no British band has reached that level of success since they set the bar too high for others to reach.
Dicko Dickinson to be fair I’m not a fan of them, but Coldplay are way more successful in America than oasis ever were, There have definitely been British bands that have been bigger since.
@@IrishLoveSpud indie fans do but the general person on the street into whatever’s on the radio they wouldn’t know him. Artics never crossed over to the general public like oasis did… when you say Liam or Noel Gallagher your nan would know them even if she’s dislikes them. They crossed over to every generation not just the indie youth. Oasis are on a different planet to the artics in terms of sales, popularity, personality, hits. Oasis have sold 84million records to date, wonderwall is the first song from the 1990s to stream 1billion times, they had 8 number 1 albums & 8 number 1 singles. Knebworth etc… All this in 15 years. Artics have sold 20m & been around not far off 15 years. It’s fair to say oasis are a different league it’s embarrassing anyone would even compare them.
@@tonyh8965 Yeah I agree with all that Oasis are ahead in every aspect, I just would have thought this person would know who the lead singer is arctic monkeys is.
@@IrishLoveSpud most people don’t. I like the Arctic’s but most people in general haven’t a clue who he is that aren’t into indie. He’s never crossed over. I mean some people know who the artics are but they aren’t one of those bands who hit mega big outside the uk or even in the uk in terms of popular music like let’s say Coldplay or oasis in their prime who have had those mega hits, anthems etc…
Not only is Alex Turner a better musician & songwriter but he’s the best songwriter on the planet by far. Only a fool would disagree. I’m sure this band is great. It’s not about who starts first, it’s about who does it better.
@@harrylaingross5983 the first 2 are older than 10 years tho. Just never recorded. Dead in the water is fantastic but also head and shoulders about anything else he's done lately
@Adam Slater Doherty had no cultural impact and no musical talent.He was filthy looking and a third rate poet.All he had was a tortured junkie schtick that people like you bought into
@Adam Slater It depends on how you define a song. If it's melody Noel Gallagher is up there with McCartney.If you want to compare lyrics then that's up to you because you're kidding yourself on if you think lyrics are as important as melody and sound.
Arctic’s are one of the most overrated bands. Oasis crossed over to every age group. Everyone knows wonderwall, don’t look back in a anger, stand by me etc... how many songs crossed over to the general public of the Arctic’s where everyone knows the lyrics? Like I said oasis - wonderwall, the Beatles - hey Jude, queen - bohemian rapacity. Arctic’s - Not one song. Conversation over.
@@tonyh8965 right... i bet you look good on the dancefloor 505 Do i wanna know... Pretty much everyone knows these... Also if no one cares, how come their debut album was the fastest selling album in UK history? And then pretty much every album after it debuted at number 1... You might not respect them as a band, but that's probably cause you haven't really given them a proper listen... The only reason why you could say they're overrated is because of their massively popular 5th album "AM" where you'd hear "Do i wanna know" everyday on the radio so many times that it was annoying... I really suggest you to listen to their albums one by one,from start to finish and pay attention to the lyrics...
@@Ennui. I liked artics first 2 albums but after that... hmmm but as I said there’s having singles like ‘I bet you look good on the dance floor’ ... then there’s ‘champagne supernova’ ‘wonderwall’ ‘don’t look beck in anger’ ‘whatever’ and that’s just 4 songs. Those songs especially 2-3 crossed over to the masses young & old where as Artics hit the youth only in the main. I’m just being honest that they don’t have any singles that 20 years from now will be remembered like oasis’ are. It’s not even a debate. Alex has some good lyrics definitely but I’m not sure he has an anthem in him.
@@tonyh8965 Noel is a better songwriter but that's a wank argument mate, some of the shittest pop drivel ever written have billions of plays (e.g gangnam style) doesn't make it good
