Noel Gallagher has told Bono to "shut the f**k up" about Africa.
The Oasis guitarist is sick of the U2 frontman campaigning to end Third
World debt in the continent, and insists Bono's fans don't want to be
constantly lectured by their idol.
Noel told Britain's Daily Telegraph newspaper: "With U2 it's like play 'One', shut the f**k up about Africa. People don't want to hear about it all the
time."
The outspoken songwriter has also blasted Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke for
brow-beating his fans with his political beliefs. He has urged him to ditch
his serious attitude to music and write a 'proper' rock song.
He said: "Thom Yorke sat at a piano singing, 'This is f***ed up', for
half-an-hour. We all know that, Mr Yorke. Who wants to sing the news? No
matter how much you sit there twiddling, going, 'We're all doomed', at the
end of the day people will always want to hear him play 'Creep'. Get over
it."
Noel - who along with brother Liam and the rest of the band will collect the
prestigious Outstanding Contribution To Music award at next week's BRITs -
has no intention to stop writing hit songs.
The rocker - whose band has scored an incredible eight UK number singles,
including 'Lyla' and 'Don't Look Back In Anger' - added: "Somehow I don't
ever see myself on stage playing a mouth organ to 150 people on a Wednesday.
Every time I write a song, I envisage them in football stadiums with loads
of people going f***ing mental - that's Oasis."
