Noel Gallagher did the lord’s work when it came to Matt Healy. Healy was dumb enough to go on the record about the Gallagher family and Oasis, and Noel let it rip about “slack-jawed f–kwit” Healy and The 1975. It was glorious. But now Gallagher is still hanging around, with music journalists continuing to ask him about other artists. Which is how Noel Gallagher once again came to disrespect Adele. Years ago, Gallagher went on a tear and he called Adele “music for f–king grannies.” Well, his opinion hasn’t changed much.
Noel Gallagher is sounding off once again. The former Oasis singer recently appeared on Matt Morgan’s podcast, and he didn’t hold back his feelings when talking about Adele’s songs.
“F**k off, f**king hell. Name one,” he said, asking the host to name any of the Grammy-winning artist’s songs.
“They’re f**king s**t. It’s f**king awful. It’s f**king Cilla Black,” Gallagher continued, comparing her to the late British pop singer best known for ’60s hits like “You’re My World”.
“I find it and that whole thing offensive,” Gallagher said of Adele’s music.
Despite his lack of tolerance for her songs, though, the musician did suggest that he should be writing new songs for both Adele and Lewis Capaldi.
“If I fall out of love with touring, I could see myself just sitting at home writing songs and sending them to my publishers,” Gallagher said. “I might in the future. I’ll be saying, ‘Get Adele to sing that. Don’t call until she’s done the guide vocal.’ I want Lewis Capaldi to murder this song, I want him to s**t on it from a great height. Make me rich.”

I remember when Adele was promoting her most recent album, 30, and she spoke about how she knows she can write hits, ballads and love songs, but she was trying to do something different with this album. I can’t say it worked, in my opinion – I do think she’s lost her way a bit as a songwriter. But the answer isn’t getting Noel to write her songs! And I disagree that Adele is Cilla Black in any way… but again, I wish Adele would go back to her songwriting roots and do a stripped-down album, a woman with a piano, singing sad songs.

I like Noel Gallagher’s music but I do wish he’d put a sock in it more often. I don’t know why he feels the need to opine about others’ music in this way.
Cilla Black had a great voice and was a very popular, admired singer in her time. Who is this guy again?
He’s just another resentful, self-centered, jealous, misogynistic, bitter, but also talented, rich & miserable old man.
Keep Cilla Black’s name out of your mouth, you hasbeen.
Right!? How dare he?!
A man who made his career trying to sound like The Beatles (and not succeeding IMO) is in no position to criticize anyone else.
Arrogant pr*ck, always has been.
I never got into Adele’s music but is this necessary?
I can’t imagine being so rude and such an egomaniac that I’d publicly diss another performer like this. I’m in the “BE KIND OR KEEP QUIET” camp, and am NOT a fan of his!
To be fair, Noel has always been around giving his views on music and musicians – he’s pretty entertaining, whether you agree with him or not, and has always been a popular guest on radio shows and podcasts (at least in the UK).
As it happens, I do kind of agree with him on Adele. She can verge on “pub singer” at times, and she’s not (IMO) showing the development you’d expect at her age. But of course she has many fans and they will disagree.
I agree but Adele or any woman really could not get away with that kind of public take on her peers. He should know that and stfu.
If he doesn’t like her, fine, no one is forcing him to listen to her, right? Just like the Barbie movie discussion, not every thing is for every person. It’s OK to say “Not for me” and move on with life.
That said, I agree about her latest album, it wasn’t my favorite. I haven’t gone back to it much to listen, like I did with her others. If you’re looking for some good break up/angry/I don’t need you anymore songs, Kelly Clarkson’s recent one is so good!
I mean, he was invited onto a podcast to express his views, which he did. That’s OK. Just like it’s OK to say you think Noel/Oasis are shit.
I’m really not sure Adele could say that without facing extensive backlash.
He can say whatever. I’m just here to say hat people can like more than one kind of thing and for completely different reasons and we don’t have to “choose sides” all the time.
Noel has always been like this. Does nobody remember him complaining when Jay-Z was picked to headline Glastonbury? That gave us one of Glastonbury’s most memorable moments, which was Jay-Z opening his gig with Wonderwall. Look it up in YouTube if you haven’t seen it. And when he switches from that to 99 problems… so powerful, totally leaves Wonderwall in the dust.
Seriously though, Noel also sold up his house in Ibiza because he didn’t like bumping into James Blunt in the VIP areas in the clubs. And the list goes on. The press love going to him to get quotes like these.
“Noel also sold up his house in Ibiza because he didn’t like bumping into James Blunt in the VIP areas in the clubs.”
Oof what a sad, miserable existence he has. I can’t imagine wasting my life away with that level of hate and pettiness.
im not necessarily agreeing but what if it is? doesnt everyone deserve their own jam? im old enough to remember when a bunch of chanting monks topped the charts
outraged HEY!!!! I listen to Adele and Im not…ohhh I did recently become a gma…Ill see myself out..
Noel Gallagher can take all the seats. He’s an insufferable narcissistic wanker who thinks he’s still relevant. I’m old enough to remember LOVING Cilla Black when I was young, she was part of the British invasion which was ground-breaking. Hey Noel…I love Petula Clark and Lulu too, come at me bruh…
I prefer Adele’s music over his and Oasis’s any day – never got into them at the time and still can’t get into their music.
Well clearly, a whole bunch of people disagree with him. Her sales nod streams speak for themselves. He’s kind of a has-been and yes, I can’t name a si gel song HE’s written. And disrespecting Cilla Black! SMH. Like my mama used to say, if you don’t have anything nice to say, be quiet or diplomatic.
i agree with him! also his new album is amazing. but if you dig adele that’s cool too.
He’s got a hellacious mouth. He needs to know when to shut it. Now would be a good time.
Team Liam.
Noel’s an asshole who always slags off anyone more successful than him. Been doing it for decades. He hasn’t been culturally relevant for years.
He’s just a grumpy old man who wants to complain and Whine about everything 🙄
Adele over Noel, any day of the week.
Lol what a jealous old bag of crap. What the hell has he done since Wonderwall?
Still angry and also still jealous 😂
