Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds

"I still believe there's just somebody up there and they're just dropping songs all over the place and if I'm not ready to catch them, Chris Martin's getting them or Bono's getting them and they've had enough, you know. I'm there every day, fishing in the river for the songs."

Listen back to Noel's Desert Island Discs and download the MP3 here. BBC Radio 4 will also re-run the show this Friday at 9am, so tune in then!

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds release 'Lock All The Doors' on August 28th, featuring B-Side 'Here's A Candle (For Your Birthday Cake)', pre-order the limited edition yellow vinyl here.
'Lock All The Doors' has been in the making for 23 years, Noel said:
"There's a song on this record that's taken me 23 years to finish - it's called 'Lock All The Doors'. I gave a bit of it away to The Chemical Brothers in the '90s when we did 'Setting Sun' and I always meant to finish it off. I kept the chorus but I could never find a way of getting the verse to tie in with this chorus. One afternoon I was coming out the Tesco Metro where I live in Maida Vale, and I don't know what it was but it just hit me, coming round the corner, just by Boots, it came to me in a flash of inspiration. This song was never released by Oasis, but the chorus is so fucking brilliant I never gave up on it."

Here it is… the next single from Chasing Yesterday, ‘Lock All The Doors’! 
Here’s the brand new video, taken from footage of the band’s last few weeks across the west coast of America.
