Siamo tutti in attesa del nuovo album dei Gorillaz, quello in cui Damon Albarn ha chiamato con sé Noel Gallagher per una collaborazione.

Parlando proprio di questo fatto, Albarn ha scherzato in merito alla cosa, a sottolineare quanto il passato di lotte intestine tra i santi patroni del Britpop è stato definitivamente lasciato alle spalle.

In a sort of lighthearted way, I’d promised Noel he could be on this record. He was always like, “I want to be on the next Gorillaz record,” and I was like, “Sure.” I thought it might be cute, the idea of us singing about the power to love each other. Of course, no one’s asked Liam what he thinks about the song yet. No doubt he’d have a fantastic one-liner about what a bunch of fucking knobheads we are.

Lo stesso Damon, stando alle parole di Noel, parteciperà probabilmente al prossimo album di Gallagher, cosa che già stava per accadere:

Well, he was supposed to play on my new record, but at the time I was recording, he was finishing the Gorillaz record and didn’t have the time. Hopefully next time. I’d like to get him to play melodica on something, which is what he was going to do for me on this record.

Nell’intervista rilasciata al magazine New York, Noel ha perciò rivelato quale sia la sua idea relativa a ciò che possa pensare riguardo alla sua collaborazione con i Gorillaz:

Listen, nobody gives a fuck what Liam thinks about anything.

E Liam Gallagher muto.
