Sometimes, just sometimes, Noel Gallagher says something sensible. This is one of those occasions. The Oasis man has suggested that record labels should get new albums out quicker in a bid to beat the problem of internet piracy.
He was commenting on the news that a Polish radio station had got in trouble with the band's record company for playing Lyla ahead of an embargo. Noel says that he was just excited to hear the single was getting radio play, and can't understand why record labels present themselves with these kinds of problems.
Extending that logic to the internet, Gallagher continued: "I don't even know what the internet is. I don't have a computer, so it doesn't concern me. I don't understand the corporate record system anymore. You give them an album, and six months later you're still waiting for it to come out. When it's finished, get it out as soon as possible. Put it in the f**king shops within the week. It can be done that way."
