This programme contains some strong language.
Welcome to a brand-new series, and I'm delighted to say
the top picker this week is the wonderful Noel Gallagher.
Welcome to the show, Noel. Thank you very much.
We're going to be discussing things later in the programme,
but what are the first...? Who are the first people that you've picked?
I've picked a performance by a band called The Strokes,
and the tune is called Last Nite.
# Last night she said
# Oh, baby, don't feel so down
# Oh, it turns me off
# When I feel left out
# So I, I turn around
# Oh, baby, don't care no more
# I know this for sure
# I'm walkin' out that door
# Well, I've been in town for just around 15, oh, minutes now
# And, baby, I feel so down
# And I don't know why
# I just walk for miles
# Yeah, people, they don't understand
# And girlfriends, they won't understand
# Your grandkids, they won't understand
# Me, I ain't ever gonna understand shite
# Last night she said
# Oh, baby, don't feel so down
# And it turns me off
# When I feel left out
# So I, I turn round
# Oh, babe, we're gonna be all right
# It was a great big lie
# Cos I left that night That's right
# Yeah, people, they won't understand
# And girlfriends, they can't understand
# In spaceships, they won't understand
# And me, I ain't ever gonna understand shit
# Last night she said

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
The Strokes, with Last Nite, from 2006,
chosen by my chief picker this week, Noel Gallagher.
Before he joins me, we welcome back to the show an artist
from Walsall with a wonderful new project entitled Be Right Back.
This is Jorja Smith.
# One day I said I would be rich and I said I'd have a family
# Would I really be content with my husband and his family? Oh
# Once was lookin' at my neighbours pretendin' that they're happy
# Cos one day I'm lookin' at myself
# And I'm sayin' that I'm sorry
# Hear me out, hear me out now I'll be right home
# Called you twice already, now please pick up the phone
# Hear me out, hear me out now I'll be right home
# I don't know, I don't know why, but I made it home
# What if I look into their eyes and I tell them that it's over? Oh
# Something I can't say to myself But I say it in the mirror, oh, no
# I've heard so many of these stories
# I never thought they'd be me
# Why can't we? Really should have left
# It was just another chapter
# It stays the same
# We'll always remain with my heart in doubt
# How do we face the colours that fade and find my way out?
# Hear me out, hear me out now I'll be right home
# Called you twice already, now please pick up the phone
# Oh, yeah
# Hear me out, hear me out now I'll be right home
# Oh, yeah
# I don't know, I don't know why, but I call it home
# Once, was I lookin' at myself and sayin' that I'm sorry? #
Thank you, Jorja Smith, with Home.
The music and poetry of the blues
has influenced much of the greatest music of the last hundred years.
Including our next band, whose new album, Delta Kream,
celebrates the music of the Mississippi hill country blues.
Filmed at their studio in Nashville, we welcome The Black Keys.
# I'm going down south, going down south
# Going down south, going down south
# Chilly wind don't blow
# Going with you, babe Going with you, babe
# Going with you, babe, Going with you, babe
# Don't care where you go
# I'd rather be dead, rather be dead
# Rather be dead, rather be dead
# Six feet in the ground
# Some other man, some other man
# He's always hanging around. #
Thank you, The Black Keys, and I'm now delighted to welcome back
into the studio, our top picker this week - Noel Gallagher.
APPLAUSE
Welcome to the show, Noel,
it's marvellous to have you here. Thank you very much.
Thank you for making some excellent choices that we'll be discussing.
Tell us about the first thing that you chose, The Strokes,
with Last Nite, from 2006.
Well, actually, when I sent the list, it was kind of like...
HE EXHALES
You know, you forget how many amazing artists
and performances have been on the show, down the years.
And The Strokes, I remember when they first came along,
just about half a dozen people in my life
who, kind of, you...
..you will take their opinions on music all day.
Five out of the six of them in the space of a week said,
"Have you heard this mob from New York, The Strokes?"
And I was like, "I keep hearing about it."
And when that first EP came out, The Modern Age,
it had kind of taken guitar music somewhere else,
and that whole period after that, with Libertines and Kasabian
and the Arctic Monkeys, was a great...
Probably the last great British period for guitar music.
And for that couple of years, when they first came to England,
we went everywhere to see them.
We used to go festivals just to see them and, uh...
..they were brilliant, they looked great
and they seemed to herald a new...
..a new spirit in guitar music.
Where does music start for you?
I'd be ten, ten years old. I remember I was old...
And, actually, my mum going up Burnage Lane
in Manchester and seeing a guy...
..walking in front of us, he had peroxide white hair,
and dyed onto the back of his head was a huge exclamation mark
in black! Nice. And, of course, I was like...
He was a punk.
It turned out he was one of the members of the Stockholm Monsters,
who were the first band ever to come from Burnage. Oasis was the second.
And... "Punk. That's a funny word."
And I remember... Some of the older lads on our estate
had Never Mind The Bollocks and...
..it was just the album with the swearing in, and for us...
We were just too young maybe, like,
five or six years too young to fully understand it, but
Never Mind The Bollocks is probably still, if push comes to shove...
..one of my... Easily one of my favourite albums.
It might be in my favourites.
Definitely, I'd say, one of the most influential albums of all time.
What about the Beatles? Weren't you hearing them...?
The Beatles were always there,
but they were kind from the past, you know. Mm-hm. And...
..the first time I was...
Like, in 1980, we were sat at home listening to Man City
on the radio, and a newsflash -
called breaking news, now, it used to be a newsflash then -
came through that John Lennon had been shot... Mm-hm.
..in New York, and for the next couple of weeks, obviously,
there's blanket coverage.
That's when I really started to get into the music side.
I always knew who the Beatles were... Yeah.
..but I guess it's with the death of John Lennon that...
Your interest was born.
Yeah, yeah. "Who was this guy? Why's everybody...? Why is...?"
You know, and... The peace thing and all that, and the candles.
And that was kind of my road into it.
And talking of the Beatles, your next choice is Paul McCartney,
and it's from 2010, when he was
playing some of the music of Wings...
Mm. ..which is a fantastic part of his... Yeah.
..canon of music, which is...
"Only the band the Beatles could have been,"
according to Alan Partridge!
THEY CHUCKLE
What made you pick this, of all the things of Paul?
When Band On The Run, the reissue, came out,
it would've been round that time, I think...
..you kind of know all the big tracks off that album,
but right on the end, I kind of listened to it in its entirety
for the first time and there was interesting stuff on it.
I'd never heard this song, never got as far as...
It's the last track.
And it was jaw-dropping.
I couldn't have thought any more highly of that dude,
or I thought, up till that point,
and then I remember calling Weller and saying... "Have you heard
"this tune, Nineteen Hundred and Eighty-Five?" "Of course I have."
JOOLS CHUCKLES
"You didn't tell me about it!" "Get a life, mate."
JOOLS LAUGHS
That's what he said to me.
And I was like, "Oh, sorry..."
And, uh... But he's an amazing...
Obviously, McCartney is an amazing songwriter,
but that, in particular, was a great tune.
# Oh, no-one ever left alive
# In nineteen hundred and eighty-five
# Will ever do
# She may be right, she may be fine
# She may get love but she won't get mine
# Cos I got you
# Whoa-oh, I
# I just can't get enough of that sweet stuff
# My little lady gets behind
# Woo, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh oo-o-o-o-h
# Oo-o-o-o-h
# Oo-o-oh, oo-o-o-o-h
# Oh, my mama said a time would come
# When I would find myself in love with you
# I didn't think, I never dreamed
# That I would be around to see it all come true
# Whoa-oh, I
# I just can't get enough of that sweet stuff
# My little lady gets behind
# Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oo-o-o-o-h
# Oo-ooh
# Ooh, ooh, oo-o-o-h
# Oh, no-one ever left alive
# In nineteen hundred and eighty-five
# Will ever do
# She may be right, she may be fine
# She may get love but she won't get mine
# Cos I got you
# Whoa-oh, I
# I just can't get enough of that sweet stuff
# My little lady gets behind... #
Whoa!
# Whoa-a-a-a!
# Shake it, don't break it. #
Woo-o-o-o!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
There we are, Paul McCartney,
with Nineteen Hundred and Eighty-Five, from 2010.
When did you decide that music is something you can do?
Because you said you'd seen... Certainly aware of the Beatles,
you were aware of punk music.
When did you think, "Well, maybe I could do this"?
Well, my...
For some reason, no-one's really got to the bottom of how this happened.
There just appeared, in our house,
behind the kitchen door, an acoustic guitar.
No-one knows where it came from.
My dad was a DJ at the time. He could never play the guitar,
and actually... He brought it...
He must have brought it home. None of us
would've been able to afford one.
And I used to get in quite a lot of trouble as a kid,
so I was grounded all the time.
And I remember just taking it up to my room and playing
Love Will Tear Us Apart, the baseline, on one of the strings.
And it just got me from there.
And I went from one string to two.
And then...
..I spent hours on it until one of the older guys from the estate
came round and he said, "Is that your guitar? It's not even in tune."
And he tuned it up. I had to start again, then.
Cos I just thought - tuning had never dawned on me.
I was just playing one string, da-na-da-na, you know. And...
How long were you playing it before it was tuned, out of interest?
I'd say about six months. It's quite a long time. Yeah.
But, yeah, playing the guitar,
and then, I guess, writing a song for the first time.
What was your first song?
Oh, it's probably about a girl that I fancied.
Anyway, never made it anywhere.
But if there hadn't have been that guitar in the house,
would it have even occurred to me to get one?
The next choice is The Coral, Dreaming of You, from 2002.
Yeah. Tell us about The Coral.
Well, again, I've got lots of friends in Liverpool who
kind of tipped us the wink about this band, The Coral.
And, we were, Oasis were out in our studio at the time.
We had Alvin Lee's old studio in Wycombe called Wheeler End
and we were out there doing something.
And this band were playing at Dingwalls.
And, so we got in the van and traipsed into London to see.
And these lads walked on the stage, and they were kids.
They were so young that they'd signed their record deal that day
but their parents had to sign it for them.
And they played this song and it sounded like Frank Sinatra,
meets The Who, meets Burt Bacharach.
And this was the first song, and it was an instrumental.
I went, "Who are they?"
And we kind of went backstage to see them
and they're all sat there all ruddy cheeked and topless.
"No way, it's these fellas off the telly. Look at... No way, lad!"
And we became really good mates with them and we took them on tour
and they're still one of my favourite ever bands.
And Dreaming of You is just - it's a classic.
# What's up with my heart when it skips a beat?
# Skips a beat
# Can't feel no pavement right under my feet
# Under my feet
# Up in my lonely room
# When I'm dreaming of you
# Oh, what can I do?
# I still need you
# But I don't want you now
# When I'm down and my hands are tied
# Hands are tied
# I cannot reach a pen for me to draw the line
# Draw the line
# From this pain I just can't disguise
# Can't disguise
# It's gonna hurt but I'll have to say goodbye
# Say goodbye
# Up in my lonely room
# When I'm dreaming of you
# Oh, what can I do?
# I still need you
# But I don't want you now
# Ooh, oh-oh
# Oh-oh-oh
# Oh-oh
# Ooh-oh
# Up in my lonely room
# When I'm dreaming of you
# Oh, what can I do?
# I still need you
# But I don't want you now. #
Yeah, love that song. The Coral, Dreaming of You.
You were just saying then, what happened?
Well, Lee, one of the guitarists,
when they got their first royalties, one of the lads told me that he
bought him and his mum and his dad three reclining leather armchairs
with the cup-holders in and they would to sit there
and watch the telly.
Like, thinking, "This is it. This is it!"
THEY LAUGH
Never mind chimps and private jets.
That's right. Swimming pools.
"Get a reclining armchair, lad, and a bevvy in there."
THEY LAUGH
Absolutely charming.
When he was on Later last, Morrissey said to me
"You are who you've got on your wall."
You know, when you're a young person. Yeah.
But who did you have on your wall?
The Jam, The Smiths, Bob Marley...
..various City players.
I share a bedroom with Liam so the wall space was at a premium.
Fighting over the wall space?
Unfortunately, it started quite young.
So, yeah, but I was a huge fan of The Jam, as you can imagine,
and The Smiths, I had posters of those guys, yeah.
And the Sex Pistols, that famous picture of the Sex Pistols where
Johnny's dressed as a Teddy Boy. Yeah, yeah.
It's like the classic picture. Sid's in a big long trench coat.
Yeah. Do kids have posters on their walls any more?
I don't know if... They're probably not allowed. It's probably not safe.
It's probably unsafe, or something, or unhygienic, or something.
It's probably not allowed.
Anyway, the next people you've chosen is Young Fathers.
Yeah. From 2018.
Well, Young Fathers, I seen them on - it would have been on Later.
Visually, they just looked amazing.
And it's the kind of music that you can't really pigeonhole.
And then, as luck would have it, six months later I did a festival
with them in Bilbao.
And traipsed all the way through the field to see them.
Still to this day I'd say it's one of the best gigs I've ever seen.
And, energy, and they looked great.
And it's kind of...I hate to use the word modern about any
kind of music, but it's contemporary.
Every band that you, kind of, like, or explodes in your face have
some indefinable quality that you can't really...
With, like, The Strokes, I couldn't really put my finger on what it was
about The Strokes I loved, I just loved the thing.
The same with Young Fathers. And Jungle.
You know, I just love the thing.
And it's not really music that I'm associated with.
But Young Fathers blew me away.
# I'm chasing
# I'm chasing shadows in the gallows Collecting what was stolen from me
# I'm chasing, I'm chasing, I'm chasing
# I got s-stammers and no manners
# I'm the man that's gonna play it for keeps
# Oceanic cinematic appetite for something bigger than free
# You lick it and you stick it
# And it's kinda like this taste
# Of everyting
# Emaciated kinda wasted
# Can't remember what the time in which we met

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Young Fathers with Toy, from 2018.
You were just saying there, that was great,
cos you can't quite pigeonhole them, can you?
No, I was just saying, it's kind of, it's not dance music
but it is electronic, and it's not punk
but it's got that attitude and energy of it.
And it kind of seems to be a swirl of influences and out comes your
own thing, you know, which is...
..all great music is like that, I think.
Yes, I think that's it. It's a swirl
of stuff and out comes something new.
Yeah, then you kind of put your own take on it and then, hey, presto,
you've got something new, you know?
Now, you've got a new album, Back The Way We Came: Volume 1. Mm.
Cos I like that, that's just volume one, which is for openers.
But it's ten years of the High Flying Birds. Yeah.
And the reason it's volume one is
because I was sat at the kitchen table one afternoon
thinking, what am I going to call it?
All titles are really corny,
and then, of course, there was that saying, "back the way we came".
What an amazing title.
If I ever get to do another one, I'm not coming up with another title.
I'm going to call it Volume 2!
But it's been nice to put a pause on it and look back and think,
well, that was a pretty eventful ten years.
You know, I remember doing Later, not for the first time,
for Who Built The Moon?,
and we were all kind of crammed into one room and there's three girls,
two of them are French, fighting
over the mirror for putting on make-up.
And, you know, one of the girls said,
"Tsk, did you ever think it would get like this?
"You know, your band?"
And I was like, thinking, I'd hoped it kind of would,
do you know what I mean?
It's the showbiz dream. Yeah.
But because I started it, there was five grumpy middle-aged men,
you know, and it's gone on to...with three exotic French girls
and, you know, a brass section,
now I've got 11 people in the band
and someone playing the scissors and it's kind of like...
Well, let's have a look at that first, actually.
You've been on a few times, it's great, a really great performance,
but this particular thing went viral, didn't it? Yeah.
I mean, it's quite extraordinary.
Well, the story of it is we were rehearsing for Later,
and Charlotte does the spoken word in the middle,
and it's after about a minute and a half.
So I said to her in rehearsals, she said, "What shall I do?
"What am I going to do? "Just stand there?"
And I said, no, just play the tambourine or something.
She said, "I cannot play the tambourine."
And I was like, "Who can't play the tambourine?"
Anyone can play the tambourine. My cat can play the tambourine.
And she's like, "Well, I can't play the tambourine."
I said, "Would you play a shaker?"
"Shaker? What's a shaker?"
And I was like, "Well, you've got to do something."
And she said, "Well, I can play the scissors."
And I did that. "Sorry?"
She said, "I can play the scissors. I'll bring them tomorrow."
And I remember looking at my bass player going,
"Did she just say scissors?"
And he was like, "Far out, mate."
Anyway, she turns up the next day and she's got the scissors
and they're herb scissors with, like, four blades
and they do make this kind of backwards hi-hat sound.
And I said, "Yeah, just do that."
I never really thought anything of it.
You know, and then we do the thing and it broadcast.
For about a month afterwards, every interview I did was about that.
You know, and people were trying to...
It's funny that music journalists were trying to look for some
meaning in it. Yeah. "What's she trying to say?"
Yeah, "What are you trying to do?
"Are you, like, trolling Oasis fans? Is that what you're doing?"
And I'm like, "Trolling? What even is that?"
You know, "It's live trolling."
And I was like, "Only a journalist would look for the meaning in it."
It's, like, it's just...
I don't know, that's what she does, you know.
And, you know, it took a lot of restraint not to get them
on the merchandise stall, I have to say. Exactly.
Let's have a look at this legendary moment, as it turned out.
# It doesn't matter what your name is
# I see you round all the time
# You lost your mind and your make-up
# I think you lost your money too
# I don't mind if you don't mind
# Cos all the roads I run are coming back to you. #
That day, Tom Hanks's missus was on. Oh, that's right.
And he was there.
Rita Wilson was on, Tom's wife, because she came
and she was singing a song with Jose Feliciano, on a record we'd done.
That's right.
So there's a knock on the door, she comes in and says,
"Anyone got any whiskey in here?"
We were like, "You've come to the right place." Gave her some whiskey.
And... Rita Wilson wanted the whiskey? Yeah. Right.
And Tom... Unbeknownst to us,
Tom had watched us do the performance,
so a couple of years later, I'm at a friend's party in Hollywood
and in walks Tom Hanks.
And he called me by my first name and he went, "Noel!"
And I was like that, "Tom Hanks, no way!"
And he was going on about Holy Mountain for ages.
He was saying, "You know,
"people don't write songs like that any more."
And I was kind of looking around going, "Is anybody filming this?
"This is amazing." "Could you speak up a bit, Tom?" Yeah!
And that was a great day all round.
So, We're On Our Way Now is the single,
which is a great song,
really great song.
And you've got Matt Smith in the video.
Beautifully shot in black and white.
As we call him, Matt Smith from The Crown.
How did he sort of end up in the...?
Well, I've known Matt for quite a while.
Could be getting on maybe ten years now, and I manipulated him
with alcohol round at mine and waited until he was in a good mood.
And as he was leaving, I said, "By the way,
"I'm doing a video next week, do you fancy being in it?"
He was like, "Yeah, mate, no problem. I'm in there."
And I held him to it.
So Matt's in this video and the next one.
Oh, very good.
It was great, and I got to do...
..I got to be in a scene with him and, of course, I hate videos,
and you realise, when you're sat opposite, like, a proper actor,
and they're kind of getting into the zone and you're just, like,
from a council estate in Manchester, thinking, "Well, what am I doing?
"Going to start acting now with Matt Smith from The Crown."
But the video's come out good, actually.
# Good luck in the afterlife
# I hear the morning sun
# Doesn't cast no shadow
# You chose to drift away
# And look at you now
# We're on our way now
# The truth can be so hard to swallow
# Hey now
# Cos you've got the love, you've got the love, lady
# I'm worn out
# Cos with every little trick they try to drag you down
# You don't know why... #
We're On Our Way Now, from Back The Way We Came: Volume 1.
It is a good title. It's great, isn't it?
If you're going to have a Best Of, Back The Way We Came is the title.
And looking back, ten years of the High Flying Birds,
which has gone like that, and suddenly there's all the work
that goes with that, the body of work that goes with that.
Yeah, well, one of the girls in the office said,
"Do you know it's ten years?" And I was thinking, ten years?
Just think of all the things I COULD have done. Yeah.
"What we could have achieved if it wasn't for the..."
What I could have done,
I might have had a driving licence now or learnt to swim.
But it's been better than I ever thought it would be.
And, actually, I was reminded of a quote that I gave a journalist,
because I'm doing promo for it now, that on the day I launched the band,
he was saying, asking me what I'd hoped it would be.
And apparently I'd said to him,
as soon as I shake off the Oasis thing,
and try and spread my wings a little and hopefully the band
will be forever changing and it'll become more of a collective.
As I sit here today, it's like, actually,
we're kind of going along nicely.
So, the last music you've chosen is The Zutons. Yeah.
Well, good mates of mine.
The bass player is now my bass player.
When The Zutons broke up,
Oasis had just broke up,
and I was sitting in the back garden one afternoon
and the phone went, and it was just a number, it wasn't a name.
I don't usually answer that kind of thing.
Anyway, I did, and on the end of it it's a Scouser.
SCOUSE ACCENT: All right, mate. It's Russ from The Zutons.
And I was like, "All right, mate."
I'd met him a couple of times and hung out with him.
He's like, "Are you going solo?" I said, "Yeah."
He said, "Are you making a record?" I said, "Yeah."
He said, "Can I play the bass?" And I was like, "Yeah."
And he said, "Is that it? Is it that easy?"
And I was like, "Yes!"
And the reason I picked this is one night we were on tour,
the High Flying Birds,
in New York, and he introduces me to Valerie,
the actual girl from the song...
Ooh! ..who has got ginger hair.
Where was she from? Was she from New York?
She's from whatever the bit is across the river in New York.
Is it New Jersey or something?
And Dave had apparently wrote it looking across...
Every night he'd go out and stare across the water. Oh.
She's a real girl, lovely girl. And I was like, no way.
I'm not sure she realises how big that song actually became.
And... Yeah, but it's a great tune.
It's a great tune.
I much prefer it to Amy's version.
And Dave, I don't know what Dave's up to now,
but he's an amazing songwriter and I do love that group.
Sadly missed.
Well, it's been fantastic having you as our guest here this evening.
Thank you very much for joining us.
Noel Gallagher! Thank you very much. Thank you.

Here's The Zutons.
# Well, sometimes I go out by myself
# And I look across the water
# And I think of all the things
# What you're doing
# And in my head I make a picture
# Cos since I've come on home
# Well, my body's been a mess
# And I miss your ginger hair
# And the way you like to dress
# Won't you come on over?
# Stop making a fool out of me
# Why don't you come on over, Valerie?
# Valerie
# Did you have to go to jail?
# Put your house on up for sale?
# Did you get a good lawyer?
# I hope you didn't catch a tan
# I hope you find the right man who'll fix it for you
# Are you shopping anywhere?
# Change the colour of your hair?
# Are you busy?
# And did you have to pay the fine
# You were dodging all the time?
# Are you still dizzy?
# Yeah
# Cos since I've come on home
# Well, my body's been a mess
# And I miss your ginger hair
# And the way you like to dress
# Won't you come on over?
# Stop making a fool out of me
# Why won't you come on over, Valerie?
# Valerie
# Yeah, Valerie
# Valerie
# Well, sometimes I go out by myself
# And I look across the water
# Ooh, ooh
# And I think of all the things
# What you're doing
# And in my head I make a picture
# Cos since I've come on home
# Well, my body's been a mess
# And I miss your ginger hair
# And the way you like to dress
# Won't you come on over?
# Stop making a fool out of me
# Why won't you come on over, Valerie?
# Valerie
# Yeah, yeah, yeah, Valerie. #
