like we're all laffin at this dumbass and his latest dumb interview and you're all "To what extent would u consider ng to hold the opinions of an ordinary briton" *twiddles ends of mustache having tied the topic to train tracks while train approaches*. how about you keep yr challops about the common briton out of our "laff at the choad who hasn't made even a quarter decent record since 1994 and who looks like a bad stingray puppet" thread?

i sometimes wonder if ppl who read ilf and ppl who dont isn't the main schism in cultural understanding on the planet today

read that as "people who read this thread..."

Mark G, Thursday, 17 October 2013 10:44 (ten years ago) link

People who read ILF know not to bother responding to Darragh's "yes but have you considered how the ignorant choads feel?" posts, it's not like there's any sincerely held belief behind them.

As a pose, the brave speaker of truth amid a sea of manufactured liberal Twitter outrage has been played out for years.

that would be the "Brendan O'Neill position" I believe

a lot of that on ilf matt, is there?

tbh the most played-out persona on ilx these days is the contemptuous now-above-it former high-volume poster

I haven't seen him around recently. not since they closed the library. wandering in other pastures.

one month passes...

I mean, some songs are pretty shit, and there’s a couple of periods you’d rather forget, but I think on the whole . . . I think we made three great albums and four good ones, which is not bad out of eight. Kind of a 50 percent record. That’s pretty good, I think.

But I’m cool with it. I don’t think there’s any unfinished business. I don’t think that we left anything unsaid, do you know what I mean? It’s like, if you’ve seen [Oasis], then good for you. If you didn’t, then that’s fucking tough shit. I’ve never seen the Beatles. So there you go.

two weeks pass...

Anybody that comes back with a double album, to me, needs to pry themselves out of their own asshole. This is not the Seventies, okay? Go and ask Billy Corgan about a double album. Who has the fucking time, in 2013, to sit through 45 minutes of a single album? How arrogant are these people to think that you’ve got an hour and a half to listen to a fucking record?

Did you see that they’ve asked people to wear formal wear or costumes at their shows?

[Sighs] Well, what’s the point of that? Do you know what the point of that is? That is to take away from the shit disco that’s coming out of the speakers. Because everybody’s dressed as one of the Three Musketeers on acid. “What was the gig like?” “I don’t know, everyone was dressed as a teddy bear in the Seventies.” “Yeah, but what was the gig like?” “Ah, fuck knows, man, I have no idea. I was dressed as a flying saucer.” “Yeah, but what was the gig like?” “Fuck knows. I don’t know. Seen Cheech and Chong, there, though.” Not for me.’

Fucking had a shit year. All I’ve done is sit around the house and become a fucking hypochondriac. Dog-shit year. Can’t wait until it’s over.

hmm

loved Yeezus, Disclosure, Daft Punk....talks shit about Arcade Fire...sure he doesn't post to ILX?

My Chief Keef Keef (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 6 December 2013 02:42 (ten years ago) link

wouldn't doubt it. his 11/10 rating of the new bowie's a major tip-off

OutdoorFish, Saturday, 7 December 2013 01:24 (ten years ago) link

I don't have a problem with him doing a double album because that's the kind of thing I would expect him to do, plus I'll probably never hear it. Thankfully he can still deliver an entertaining interview which is increasingly rare. eg:

Be good. Don't be outrageous. Anybody can be outrageous! I could go to the Rolling Stone office and fucking shit on top of a boiled egg, right? And people would go, "Wow, fucking hell, that's outrageous!" But is it any good? No, because, essentially, it's just a shit on top of a boiled egg. That's all it is.

Then later on...

Q: What do you think about Lady Gaga?
...She's another one. In fact, she's probably doing a shit on top of a boiled egg right now. And somebody will fucking freeze it and call it art.

everything, Saturday, 7 December 2013 03:02 (ten years ago) link

hi OutdoorFish! thanks for defending standards!

Working Class Rejected Street Boot Brat (Noodle Vague), Saturday, 7 December 2013 03:04 (ten years ago) link

when he goes home he sheds a silent tear because shitting on top of a boiled egg is the only idea he's had all year.

Merdeyeux, Saturday, 7 December 2013 03:05 (ten years ago) link

His interviews are awful, he's like some tedious blowhard below the line commentator on a guardian article only he's being interviewed by Rolling Stone and GQ.

eheh. I had never seen most of these videos but they are truly awful... and they do walk in slow motion a lot !

this is hugely entertaining. thanks!

The DVD that comes with the "Time Flies" has a Noel commentary as an extra.

Basically, he likes the "Importance of being idle" video, and that's it.

"Is that Phil Mitchell?"
"No it's not"
Love this whole thing

yeah this almost retrospectively justifies Oasis

a man with legs made of sausages - that's not real! (seandalai), Wednesday, 22 January 2014 22:44 (ten years ago) link

I like his reactions to the Standing on the Shoulder of Giants videos/songs. especially by the time he gets to Sunday Morning "that's exactly how I feel mate"

So yeah pretty much the most entertaining thing Noel's been involved with since Some Might Say.

Kitchen Person, Wednesday, 22 January 2014 23:04 (ten years ago) link

That was so great.. When he realizes what song is coming up next and just starts freaking out, oh man

gbx, Thursday, 23 January 2014 06:08 (ten years ago) link

Oh, I see now the article is about that very DVD.

Yeah, I was I'll off work and sat through the whole DVD with the commentary on, which made it worth doing... They are very 'fit for function' for the overwhelming majority as in 'perform/promote song., that's it' so it's really the only good thing about it as a whole.

Oh, Liam does his one single too.

Mark G, Thursday, 23 January 2014 07:40 (ten years ago) link

He sounds incredibly Karl Pilkington in some of these bits!
My favorite one is when he sounds like he's never seen the video before, with the motorcycle driver crashing through the window and going to the hospital. Killing me.

Walter Galt, Thursday, 23 January 2014 11:56 (ten years ago) link

"Look at the size of Bonehead's shirt. That's fuckin' insane."

"Yeah, I'm not having any of this."
