>N.G.: I hate Thom Yorke physically, I dislike that kind of man.
>H.J.: I’ve never understood why. Have you met him?
>N.G.: Oh, yes. I can hardly bear to talk to him. He has the Cobain disease. That particular combination of arrogance and timidity sets my teeth on edge.
>H.J.: He’s not arrogant; he’s shy.
>N.G.: He is arrogant. Like all people with timid personalities, his arrogance is unlimited. Anybody who speaks quietly and shrivels up in company is unbelievably arrogant. He acts shy, but he’s not. He’s scared. He hates himself, and he loves himself, a very tense situation. It’s people like me who have to carry on and pretend to be modest. To me, it’s the most embarrassing thing in the world—a man who presents himself at his worst to get laughs, in order to free himself from his hang-ups. Everything he does onstage is therapeutic.
lmao this is an orson welles quote. noel did like to dump on radiohead back in the day though, so 5/10 effort.

> "I like Radiohead," Gallagher told Croation radio station Plavi. "Every time I see them live, they blow me away. But we make very accessible rock & roll records, and they constantly make difficult electronic ones."
> He added: "Correct me if wrong, but they've been making the same record since Kid A, have they not?"
