Noel Gallagher - by Phil Sutcliffe, Q (Feb 1996)
"Do you think your obsession with The Beatles could go too far?: 'It’s beyond an obsession. It’s an ideal for living. I don’t even know how to justify it to myself. With every song that I write I compare it to The Beatles. I’ve got semi-close once or twice. Live Forever, I suppose, Don’t Look Back In Anger, Whatever. The thing is, they only got there before me. If I’d been born at the same time as John Lennon I’d have been up there... From what I’ve heard from Paul McCartney, he likes about half a dozen of my songs. I met him twice, on the Come Together album and then I went round his house in St John’s Wood one night. He likes Slide Away, Whatever and Live Forever. If I’d been knocked over by a taxi that night I’d have died the happiest man."
