Noel Gallagher has spoken about how David Bowie is “more of an influence on [him] now than he ever was”.Speaking to Sky News at the premiere of the forthcoming Bowie film Moonage Daydream, the High Flying Birds musician said that the late icon has “one of the most interesting stories in all of music”.“My relationship’s purely through the music, really,” Gallagher explained. “I didn’t really know him that well.
I was first aware of him in the ’80s, doing ‘Let’s Dance’ and all that, and then going back, when I was getting more into music, going back in time.“I’m a big fan.
I was a big fan anyway, but he’s more of an influence on me now than he ever was. He’s one of the all-time greats.”The former Oasis singer-songwriter went on to say that Bowie had inspired how he approached making the third and most recent NGHFB album, 2017’s ‘Who Built The Moon?’.“It was the first time I’d ever written in a studio, and he used to do it all the time, and my producer at the time was encouraging me to do that more,” Gallagher explained.“He was kind of like, ‘listen to interviews by him, saying you’ve got to put yourself out there and be slightly unsure of what you’re doing’.
That was a good point for where we were going at the time with our record.”Earlier this year, Gallagher revealed that he’d impersonated Bowie while working on tracks for his next full-length record.
