Liam Gallagher has taken a pop at Coldplay's frontman Chris Martin after being advised to change his singing voice by The Who frontman Roger Daltrey. Liam Gallagher’s dig at Chris came after Daltrey told him he should change his famous gravelly voice.
Gallagher told Absolute Radio: ‘I remember Roger telling me, “Look, you’ve got to warm up”. I was like that, “Warming up, man, are you mental?”. I don’t want to sound like Chris Martin.’
Meanwhile we're sure Chris Martin will have a Friday chuckle to himself when he reads the news that Liam's new single with band Beady Eye, has failed in the charts. Liam said the Number 31 UK chart peak of Beady Eye's debut single 'The Roller' was a 'reality check' for the band. Must be that voice, Liam!
The song, released in January, entered the chart at 31 and dropped to Number 68 the following week. Asked by Spinner how he felt about the track's failure to sell more, Gallagher replied: "It was a reality check. But that's the way it is."
Liam Gallagher’s comments come just 24 hours after he criticised Radiohead's new album 'The King Of Limbs'. The singer took aim over the title and lyrics on the band's new album 'The King Of Limbs', which was inspired by a 1,000-year-old tree in Wiltshire's Savernake Forest. “I heard that f*cking Radiohead record and I just go, 'What?!' I like to think that what we do, we do f*cking well. Them writing a song about a f*cking tree? Give me a f*cking break! A thousand year old tree? Go f*ck yourself!"
Gallagher added: "You’d have thought he’d have written a song about a modern tree or one that was planted last week. You know what I mean?"
