Commenting on this week's big battle for the album chart top spot (with Westlife, Oasis, U2 and the Beatles all releasing albums this week), Elton John has offered his opinion, possibly because it provided an opportunity to diss Noel Gallagher, seemingly a bit bitter about previous comments the Oasis man made about him.
Here's what Elton has to say: "I'm so glad Westlife are ahead of Oasis. After what fucking Noel Gallagher said about me I couldn't give a shit about Oasis ... he's just such a tosser. He's an absolute tosser and he looks like Parker from 'Thunderbirds'. They don't deserve to be Number One. It's not a greatest hits album because they've left three of their biggest hits off it".
Current expectations are that Westlife will be number on Sunday, with The Beatles' 'The LOVE Album' currently slightly ahead of the Oasis best of.
