Liam Gallagher: "I Hate 'Wonderwall'"

added 01 September 2008 at 10.08

Oasis singer reveals that he "can't stand" the band's immortal hit.

Liam Gallagher has 'fessed up that he hates singing the song 'Wonderwall'. The frontman says that he gets annoyed that he's only recognised in America for the track. Talking to WENN about Oasis's new album 'Dig Out Your Soul', Gallagher said, "At least there's no 'Wonderwall' on there. I can't fucking stand that fucking song! Every time I have to sing it I want to gag.

"Problem is, it was a big, big tune for us. You go to America and they're like: 'Are you Mr Wonderwall?' You want to chin someone."

What do you think? Are you sick of 'Wonderwall', or will it live on forever? Leave us a comment, won'tcha?

SONGBIRD ect that have a freshness to em an make me wanna play em .To be controversial . i would say post BE HERE NOW singles are myfavourites .. apart from LET THERE BE LOVE

  4. 'Wonderwall' has ALWAYS been annoying. Liam's voice at its whiniest. If I were him, that's the basic reason I'd hate that song. Ryan Adams improved on it big time.

  5. I love Wonderwall, it's an absolute classic, sorry Liam! I'm sure the resonating applause that follows the performance must go someway towards helping him get over it though!

  6. Radiohead - Creep
    REM - Losing My Religion
    Oasis - Wonderwall

    If it wasn't for 30 something accountants who only ever bought on record, all these bands would have ditched playing these years ago!
