Ah, Noel Gallagher, a man beloved of journalist who need to fill an article because every time he’s got something to promote he just pours out the headline quotes.

Today, he’s having a go an Adele, and says of about her career: he finds the “whole thing offensive”. Speaking to Matt Morgan’s podcast he was asked if he liked Adele and her hits:

“Fuck off, fucking hell. Name one?.. They’re fucking shit. It’s fucking awful. It’s fucking Cilla Black. I find it and that whole thing offensive.”

That said: “If I fall out of love with touring, I could see myself just sitting at home writing songs and sending them to my publishers… I might in the future. I’ll be saying, ‘Get Adele to sing that. Don’t call until she’s done the guide vocal’.”

Indeed, “‘I want Lewis Capaldi to murder this song, I want him to shit on it from a great height. Make me rich!’”
