Oasis catholic origins

Stop crying your heart out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QyVil0dwhk

in the video: Our Lady, symbol of Milan (statue called Madonnina, in dialect Madunina). Not all the cities have this above the city, that's why we are the best. Oasis, having Irish origins, come from a Catholic family.

Duomo cathedral in Milano

the sleeves of Our Lady are turned up, as though she's busy working and protecting us. As Milan song says: we always have summat to do...

Indian restaurant - George Harrison

To Be Where There's Life, with Indian sitar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_HSypI59jA

tribute to George, 29/11/2001-29/11/2009

I was born and spent all my youth near here, this is the hidden street where I used to buy the newspapers everyday, and in fact the name is Press Street (via Stampa). There's also live music and dance shows in this Indian restaurant in Milan centre, Sarla: www.sarla.it

I love spicy food as the Indian one. Sometimes I cook Indian even at home, I make the Prawn Biryani, that is spicy rice with curry, shrimps, coconut, onion, eaten while drinking tea. One time in another Indian restaurant near here, a waiter FORCED me ahaha to finish a dish (it was a spicy tomato soup), cos probably accepting to eat the whole dish means education for Indian people.

The English pub where Oasis used to go, it's near here and next to it there's a Hare Krishna place :))

some beautiful songs by George:

Noel back into the hole where he was born

as the song which sums up Oasis' career as a whole, according to Alan McGee (the man who discovered Oasis, The Man :), "D'you know what I mean", said "back into the hole where I was born" :). I always say this, there's no place like home... at the end everybody is coming back to the place where one was born.

So now he will be closer to our beloved blues! Good man!(chester :)

Noel Gallagher to quit London for Manchester

Ex-Oasis man to return to hometown

Noel Gallagher has said that he is planning to leave London and return to his hometown of Manchester to live.

The singer/guitarist, who moved to the UK capital following the release of his former band's 1994 debut 'Definitely Maybe', said that the capital had lost its "spark" for him, so he was looking to head home.

"I'm leaving London to go back up north, to Manchester," he told the Evening Standard. "I've been advised to do a Rod Stewart, as in a tax exile, but I don't want to do it. But London has lost its spark."

Noel Gallagher recently confirmed his intention to launch a solo careerfollowing Oasis' August break-up.

military Kangol

When a brand is useful: I remember in 2002 on the train from Florence to Lucca 2 English girls were dressing clothes of this military brand Kangol, a bag and stuff like that, so it reminded me of Oasis wearing those things and this was the reason to approach them ^_^, in fact they were going to Oasis gig. That concert in Lucca was a struggle (also during the night with those 2 English girls in my bed ^_^) cos we were on the front row. When they played "Better man", someone was jumping from the statue in Napoleone square (it was open air) and they stopped the song, Liam told to come down, then they reprised the song from the exact point where it was stopped.

General Montgomery, wearing his iconic Kangol beret

Kangol, from the Wikipedia:

Kangol is a clothing company famous for its headwear.

Founded in Cleator, Cumbria, England in 1938 by Jaques Spreiregen, Kangol (the K from silk, the ANG from angora, the OL from wool) produced hats for workers, golfers, and especially soldiers. They were the major beret suppliers to the armed forces during World War II, including famously Field Marshal Montgomery.

During and after the war, Kangol berets were the height of fashion. In the 1960s, designers Mary Quant and Pierre Cardin worked with the company, whose products graced the heads of the rich and famous, including the Beatles and Arnold Palmer, and later Princess Diana. The company also supplied uniformed organisations such as the Scout Association.

In the 1980s Kangol berets entered a new phase of fashion history with their adoption by members of the hip-hop community, such as Grandmaster Flash, Run-DMC, LL Cool J, Eminem, Kangol Kid of UTFO, and The Notorius B.I.G.. The release of more consciously stylish products in the 1990s such as the furgora (angora-wool mix) Spitfire, was helped by its presence upon the head of Samuel L. Jackson in 1997. Kevin Eubanks, bandleader for The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, sports a Kangol beret on an almost nightly basis. In 2009, Eminem wore the Cotton Twill Army Cap Kangol hat on his Beautiful video.

Kangol has been owned by Sports World since 2006, when they acquired the brand from private equity fund, August Equity Trust. Licenses to manufacture and sell Kangol apparel have been sold to many different companies including D2 and Topshop. The global rights to Kangol hats have been held by American hatmakers Bollman Headwear since 2002.

It was announced in February 2009 that Bollman were reviewing their worldwide operations, putting 33 jobs and the future of the Kangol head office in Cleator in doubt. On 6 April 2009, it was announced that the original factory would be converted to a warehouse with the loss of 25 jobs. Only 7 employees now remain employed at the company's original site and the outlet shop will close at the end of August 2009. However, hats will continue to be made at their sites in Eastern Europe & the United States.

the Gospel according to Saint Mark ^_^ - Marco's daily broadsides ahahaha

Marco's Big Mouth (and long tongue, my friends call me Salamander ^_^). I really have it, and my dentist thinks I'm a lion. An English lion. A Venice Saint Marco lion. Here are October (and November) Marco's angry quotes, better than Oscar Wilde ^_^. Oasis style. So sincere. You hate or you love Marco. More likely: you hate him ahaha

"immigrant peasants from the countryside still add on "Facebook" their photos in what they call "clubs" to show everybody their idiot drunk faces, communists not caring about privacy... provincial buggers. People from the city are vips, don't even take photos, it's normal, and kick paparazzi asses. The french call them "parvenu"... It means they do the things of citizens, but still have no proper manners."

"I wonder what's the point in adding fake profiles... girls add yourself a brain please... then they say "I liked the profile pic" ... you seem bugger men adding thousands plastic bitches hoping to fuck one".

"Michael Jackson movie was a big flop, nobody has gone to see it. People understood that he was just a paedophile environmentalist... above all: mental."

"All you put on Facebook is nothing precious at all, cos it's public, you know what I mean. I'm removing deleting erasing useless people... cos I still have to put too precious stuff, not for the public. So help me and it will be faster: remove yourself, I just don't care."

"Smashing Liam Gallagher's big mouth is the only good job mafia did."

"Liam wants to form a new band, he said maybe it could be a shit... here's the difference between Noel and him, Noel would have never said that, cos he never makes a shit."

"Facebook is the biggest loss of time in human history. Almost all the people are into games and bullshit, not even answering to messages or events, afraid of everything, afraid even to speak cos they feel to be a Princess while they are a rubbishit, so one then looks only at the usual women looking for some men to take money from, very typical of women, everybody asking all about you, read my profile you dumbass."

"Andare con le mignotte è di destra. Coi trans è di sinistra. Ma coi trans "si può fare", perchè sono dei poveri diversi. Privacy privacy! Meglio le mignotte, anche perchè è difficile non trovarne."

"Close friends using Facebook 1 time a month, they'd better use gay Twitter with the lil blue bird whistling. Liam uses that."

"french professors are cunts. Anyway Liam is a cunt too, he copied those scarves from Milan, as all the rest. He seems a Chinese nazicommunist fucker."

"(Stairway to Heaven) There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold and she votes Obama."

"Obama on November 27th will give a speech about aliens and he'll say that "we are not alone in the universe", he's an alien and will destroy us all. He already started. Killing us softly. This is the Big Change. What did you expect, free beer and arses flying."

"Inter Milan is a gay team... strong with weak ones and weak with strong ones."

"Giulietta è una zoccola, Juliet is a clog, that is a bitch, everybody knows... that story is a fake, a fake fuck."

"To all those "in a complicated relationship": leave your partners, life is already complicated enough."

"The reason why Marco is so happy with no reason is that he doesn't fucking care about anyone. Too much time in my life spent caring about other people, not even able to thank. It's beautiful to become aware that loneliness worths a lot. Unfortunately you're never alone."

"Facebook, being an American idiot, has the Obama flu: change change change. Yes, change your brain. Whatever they do, it's rubbishit. KEEP !!!"

"There are too many girls around who think they're beautiful so they do the precious ones... we have to find someone who doesn't care about anyone and tell them they suck, but where can we find him? Ah Marco! ... Girls you suck."

"Who the fuck cares of who becoming friends of who and fuck off to Facebook and all its changes."

"Marco administrates 58 groups, one more interesting than the other one, the biggest has 5.000 members, he's got hundreds sites and webs, so he's fucking cool. Am I happy with that? NO I'M NOT!!! I WANT MOOORE!!! The newspaper said he's a benefactor of humanity. Good evening planet Earth." (similar to Noel words)

"Why don't they call it Gamebook, cos I see it's the main activity around, innit. They surely had a difficult childhood with no games, we see the results nowadays, ye know what I mean. Get a fucking interest in yer life."

"Erasing people.... When people play facebook games instead of answering to the message you take the time to write them, this is the proof of the existence of idiocy in the world."

"Will the super rich Inter or Zürich win in Spain against the super rich Real or Barça? Shut the fuck up, you can only receive charity from Milan... I'm DELIGHTED as a fucked cow... GUIDO GODE COME UNA VACCA."

"The most ridiculous thing is that people feel a hidden happiness when other people comment their status and things (symptom of an empty life), while I'm happy if they think about their own fucking business."

"Real Madrid-Milan. Tonight it's hard. Come what may, we're Milan though and you all suck."

"Come on people, you're not playing enough idiot games tonight and posting pathetic links, go on please I miss them, how can I be angry without your bullshit."

"Marco e la solita intelligenza femminile di scongelare il frigo senza mettere stracci nè secchi sotto... casa allagata e mangiare inzuppato (ovviamente lasciato sotto la lastra di ghiaccio)."

"Jimmy of "Look back in anger" (theatre) is like me. A kind of challenge to women. But the woman who can face the challenge was not born yet. Women always say they are the stronger sex, but in reality they're terribly weak and afraid of everything. They're even afraid of contacts on "Facebook", where you can see all of a person. Afraid cos in the world there are bad people so we all pay for this. As a result I'm always angry, at least sometimes I wake up some of them."

"They're changing all Facebook again pffffffffff... and why I can't put a network... I want Italy, I want England network, I want Milan network, I want Falkland islands, I want Fucking islands."

"I accept only bad girls."

"Marco is a different breed yeah man, he's outta ya league, he's 10 outta 10 alright, get outta his way yeah man."

"Some people should throw themselves down a cliff cos they're useless. Take inspiration from Quadrophenia but throw yourself."

"Zanella-Gallagher life's not stable since Oasis split."

"Jewel fingertips are like mine because of guitar. Jenson Button had to use the hands of another person for a tv advertisement cos he's got feminine hands. Think about how are boys hands after looking so much at your photos on "Facebook" (handbook?)"

"Australians should be sleeping now... as usual."

"I don't listen to depressing bands and my life is happy. Simple. Besides, Muse copied Radiohead and Coldplay, they are the bad copy of rubbish. Another boy band for idiot girls who don't know anything about music, in the 90s they still had their nappies changed, now screaming "uh how beautiful is the singer!!!"... if he is, my name is Brad Pitt."

"I will never go with "second-hand" girls, so 99,99% of girls."

"I just think the contrary of Oscar Wilde: I like men with a past and women with a future."

"I repeat for the "stupid girl": I'll never go with "second-hand" girls even if it's Claudia Schiffer or Angelina Jolie. 99,99% of girls are even 3rd, 4th, 20th, etc hand, and they even suck, so stay away from me. Buggers and wankers even use "Facebook" to put their personal "best photos". No need to put any. And I don't see any best around. And of course I don't put the best in this shitty Fakefook."

"Stop playing Fakefook idiot games, stop bla bla bla, stop uploading photos of your idiot face, get a fucking life."

"You're gonna get the sack... I don't fucking care about you, you, you, you, yes you too."

"99% of you are useful as an ass without a hole. You, you, you, you, yes you too."

"Please somebody stop this man (Liam), he continuosly comes to Milan. He fools around gays but now he dyes his hair and uses make-up as they do, so Noel fools him around."

"I like girls with glasses cos it's rare to find a girl who at least looks intelligent."

"People write me mails as though I was a guru...in fact Me am."

"I thinks foreign girls should live their fucking bugger lives at home among the penguins, not coming here for complaining. If we look by them, places "in the arses of wolves", there is just one thing to do: a big fire to burn everything. Signora finlandese, torni tra i muschi, i licheni e le renne (Prosperini). Maybe at home u find Santa Claus with reindeers, so stay there."

"All the people think about adding people on "facebook", while the point is removing them, until a few ones will be left, maybe only 1, wonder who will be, cos I'll do it soon or later, I already started months ago."

"Removing all the bitches from my contacts, wonder whether 1 girl will be left... usually those bitches are useless: they don't fuck, they're simply fake."

"After so much vomiting against men, of course on Facebook and not in reality in front of people faces, you coward rabbits, here is the group "The woman owns a brain" (from the book "Wonderful tales"...)"

"People use Facebook to "conquer" someone with their photos, while to me it's ridiculous and I don't fuckin' care. Don't appear, just do and be."

"I think that people who have contacts abroad should learn some English and write in English, not in their fucking weird tongues, cos if I start speaking the language without which yours would have not even existed, you don't understand 1 thing as usual."

"Many people even think they could know someone looking at their photos on "Facebook"... call it superFicialbook."

"I can speak 4 almost 5 languages as Mourinho, so I'm Quadrophenia and you all suck."

"Obama the Saviour of the Universe, Nobel for peace?! Another confirmation of what I think about Norwegians... a bunch of idiots."

"Right, listen this is serious: there's a crack in Marco heart barrier cos it's busted, and you can't fix it, and we can't do the gig. There you go. Everybody 2 or 3 steps back from me. You are gonna get the sack, then you, you, you, you........ yeah then you too. You're all gonna get the sack. See if you can make it till the end..." (similar to Noel in Manchester)

"Discarding friends as autumn leaves... just 1 thing to say and no need to say anything more: pffffffffffffffffff....... disgusted. Considering to close Fakefook."

"Who knows you, already knows you and doesn't need facebook."

"Who doesn't join this group, is weak as an empty bottle. So don't join, it's normal ..almost the whole world is empty."

"Sind sie bereit? Ich bin müde! Ihr Leute von Facebook seid alle schwach wie eine Flasche leer!! Alle Strunzen! Ich bin zwei Jahre hier gespielt, spiele keine Spiel, bin immer verletzt. Was erlauben Strunzen! Ihr seid immer qua qua qua qua qua, pla pla pla pla, chu chu chu chu chu, pla cha pla pla pla.. Was verstehen de training? Ich habe fertig." (similar to Trapattoni speeches)

"Obama makes the same face in every photo. I wonder if he's alive or embalmed. My poor grandmother always said: do not trust people who laugh only in 1 way. Well here he's smiling, but not very different..."

"I think I'm becoming Forrest Gump and speaking by myself... mad fer it... fuckin' genius as Noel. As the newspaper said: Marco you're a benefactor of humanity."

"Women are terribly attracted by illiterate ignorant men. E.g. bricklayers or Di Caprio, that is the same."

"Esti Ginzburg is a woman and does her duty. Bar Refaeli is a recommended, skived from military service and could not marry anyone but an idiot as Di Caprio."

"There are some people who are funny as a finger up the ass. Besides, they're useful as an ass without a hole. Conclusion: beat the shit out of them."

"I believe more in God than in human bullshit. They don't believe in God but believe in radical chic cinema. My faith's unshakeable. God is punishing them all. I would rather live my life as if there’s a God and die to find out there isn’t, than live my life as if there isn’t and die to find out there is."

"Not all the cities have a golden statue of Our Lady protecting the city from above... that's why we are the best."

"These were good gigs cos we were on the front row: that one in Lucca was a struggle: also during the night with 2 English girls in my bed."

"Stop posting pathetic bullshit, thanx. You make the people sick and wanting to do the contrary. You're not forced to post summat or comment. Just shut up."

"I think that every REAL Oasis fan should put "widowed" as relationship status. Don't tell me you're engaged: bullshit. Stay free, you gotta have fun so come on."

"The toilet is the best place to perform a gig, cos while I sit down there on the toilet bowl I can think about a lot of shit people."

"Girls please stop offering material to wankers for masturbating. I don't even look at your photos. Do summat useful for humanity: give yourself. Cos you sound like a perfume shop assistant."

NOVEMBER

"Why should I go to London for 1 night on Saturday for Liam, who I hate, and not tonight for Noel, who I love? You love what you hate."

"I wonder how one could be beaten by Liam, he's a stuffed shirt, during the fights look how awkward he is... as when he plays guitar... even an old lady would kick his ass... in fact Noel always did."

"Dye on his hair and make-up... The women like experienced guys, even with grey hair, so he wants gays to like him. The more you're into a thousand women and clothes, the more you become a fag. Fact."

"Today I got another Prett Green shirt, a red one, for a girl... charity for Liam... Pretty Green is gonna fail... I did it only for her and cos they gave me a hat and there's free shipping... come on I love you Liam. The truth is that I wanna go to London to kick him."

"As Hello said: I got a feeling you still owe me... Having seen the prices, Liam should offer free clothes or at least a discount for Milan fans who prepared all for months for the last final show, and then no gig."

"Next weekend the sexiest girl comes to visit me. The sexiest girls are not on Facebook, Facebook is for we buggers."

"I'm super happy cos the sun is always shining and I have people travelling thousands kilometres to visit me, and I think this is the best way to feel loved, innit."

"No wonder Oasis talk shit of shitty Australians. Aussie...Ausshit. I wonder how does it feel to have the flag of another country in yours. All the Australians I've known in my life, they were all idiots, and I should always erase them. Electricity didn't arrive in Australia yet, to give them the right news and education."

"How could one lose against a rich team full of idiots as "Cretino" Ronaldo. The super rich are gonna make a shit. Again. To be the best one you don't have to change all "Obama style", buying the best ones and being in debt with all the banks, but keeping the best we already are."

"This spaghetti dish I cooked now, is called LIFE. Get a life. All you eat is shit. Eating shit, you don't live."

"Fucking hell, what an asshole is Liam. No sense of fashion at all, they seemed tramps... if the Stone Roses were the best dressed, my name is Giorgio Armani."

"The people are without a character. I have too much, I'll lend you some for Christmas."

"Luxuria: "il coraggio è donna"... muahauahauha donne rappresentate da un trans, guardate quanto coraggio avete... Luxuria nuovo inaspettato idolo. Ci vuole un uomo per fare una donna. [ Women with no courage. It takes a man to make a woman. ]"

"All those with more than 400 friends should get a life. You're not Obama, full of fantasy friends."

"Berlin wall, 1989-2009, 20 years. Today's Italian Army day, maximum respect for all the soldiers. Sometimes I find communist girls from East Europe and I think there's nothing more stupid, probably they have no more grandparents or parents to tell them summat about that... In those countries, communist symbol is even forbidden, it should be so also in Italy but our communists are a bunch of idiots."

"Fucking tired of seeing people playing idiot games, gimme a reason and I erase you, I don't care. NOBODY ever seems to remember LIFE is a game we play."

"Hey you bitches, with all the money you get from your fucks, pay yourself an English course so you stop writing in your shitty weird useless tongues."

"Wondering whether Adsl already arrived in other countries... I'm not at computer 24 hours per day, if you write me and even moan about me not answering, you're an asshole... go chatting with some wanker, you daft prick."

"Some girls think they're beautiful and even intelligent, but they confused the b they are, not beautiful but bitches, it's quite different.

And those who got offended, they are that type of girls."

"All the women are interested in plastic idiots and money, you make me vomit. All of you, you, you you, yea you too. And you call yourself a woman. That's exactly what you are: a woman. I can see now why some become gays. Women suck."

"Models suck. Have u ever seen nude a model, right: too thin. And without make-up in the morning they're awful. And of course, being women, interested in money and idiots. Models suck."

"All complicated bitches going with old rich ignorant men... that's the world nowadays. It's because of the "crisis"... In my next life I wanna be a woman so I'll have an easy cunning life."

"I see many profiles around with pornographic photos but Facebook erases normal profiles as mine (10 times), Facebook is an American wanker masturbating on your photos.

Obama is controlling the web so that's why I've been erased so many times. More than Democratic party it's Tyrannic party."

"Some even think that the more you have friends on "Facebook", the more you're popular. It's the contrary, the LESS you have, the more you care about privacy, that's why I should erase almost all. Uuuuuh how good you have 5,000 internet people wanking on your photos."

"People you should use condoms not fer yer dick but on yer head, cos it's more dangerous what you do with that, innit. All of you, you you you, yea especially you. And of course cos you're a bunch of dickheads, ça va sans dire."

"I always wondered how some people can meet Facebook people they don't know. Maybe putting all their photos so it looks like "reality"? To me it's quite weird, because they're interested in fucking photos, but above all I see people are all scared of everything so I think it's impossible to meet them. There was a model @ Miss Italia, proud of saying in front of millions of people that she knew her boyfriend on a chat (!). You bitch ahaha, I would have rather hidden down the ground, I'm too old-minded for this. All summed up, what's Facebook for? Proabably for playing idiot games, Gamebook Superficialbook Fakefook, the place where you don't fook but you fake."

"I was thinking that so far in my life I haven't found even 1 person I wouldn't call an idiot, even relatives or best friends, so imagine the rest."

"V for vendetta... vengeance...
people who don't answer to the message you take the time to write them (but they play idiot games), and/or those who remove you from friends without saying anything, SHOULD LEARN EDUCATION, good manners, and to give a lesson to those behaving that way, I saved all their photos, and I'll put them on escort bitch sites."

I will add more...

Wonderwall film

movie trailer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZF-ALx1DtLU

Wonderwall to be here +Cowboy music http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zAYLpB5Eb_A

Wonderwall is the title of a movie by then first-time director Joe Massot that starred Jack MacGowran, Jane Birkin, Richard Wattis, Irene Handl, and Iain Quarrier, and featured cameos by Anita Pallenberg and Dutch designers The Fool (who were also set designers for the movie).

The story of the film revolves around the reclusive, eccentric scientist Oscar Collins (MacGowran), whose next-door neighbours are a pop photographer (Quarrier) and his girlfriend/model (Birkin), named Penny Lane. Discovering a beam of light streaming through a hole in the wall between them, Collins follows the light and spots Penny modelling for a photo shoot. Intrigued, he begins to make more holes, as days go by and they do more photo sessions. Oscar gradually becomes infatuated with the girl, and feels a part of the couple's lives, even forsaking work to observe them. When they quarrel and the couple split, Penny takes an overdose of pills and passes out, but Oscar comes to her rescue.

The soundtrack was composed by Beatle George Harrison, whom Massot approached specially for the project. Harrison had never done a movie soundtrack, and told Massot he didn't know how, but when Massot promised to use whatever Harrison created, Harrison took the job.

Deciding to make the soundtrack a kind of introduction to Indian music, Harrison recorded a series of short ragas at EMI's recording studio in Bombay in January 1968, then a selection of rock and other musical styles, at De Lane Lea Studios in London, England. Timing the segments with a stopwatch as he watched the unfinished movie, Harrison built up a healthy, varied musical program. The soundtrack album (Wonderwall Music), the first "solo" Beatles record, was released by Apple Records in November 1968. It also appeared on compact disc in 1992, during reissues of the Apple catalogue.

The movie premiered at the Cannes Film Festival that year, and won an award, but did not gain a proper distribution deal, and its showings were limited, leading some writers to mistakenly state that the movie "was so poor, it was never seen by anyone". A print did finally appear on the American midnight movies circuit in the 1970s, and on home video in the 1980s and 1990s, all of rather low technical quality.

In 1998, thirty years later and with Massot an established film director, he decided to restore and re-release his first movie. George Harrison's search for master recordings turned up a lyrical song, "In The First Place", which he hadn't submitted the first time around, believing Massot only wanted instrumental music. "In The First Place" was released as a single in 1999. Harrison is believed to have not only produced it, but to sing and play on it, although he asked to be only credited as producer. Massot was happy to include the song in the restored movie, which was released to critical acclaim the second time around, and got a distribution deal.

Wonderwall music

Wonderwall Music is George Harrison's first solo album and the soundtrack to the film Wonderwall. The songs are virtually all instrumental, except for some non-English vocals and a slowed-down spoken word track. The songs were recorded in December 1967 in England, and the rest in January 1968 in Bombay, India. Wonderwall Music is notable for being the first official solo album by one of the Beatles.

The recordings for the album were started in December 1967 in England. The rest was recorded in January 1968 in Bombay, India. Also recorded during the Indian sessions was the backing track to "The Inner Light", which became the B-side to "Lady Madonna", the final Beatles single on Parlophone Records.

Some of the musician's credits are pseudonyms for George Harrison, Eric Clapton, and Ringo Starr. Harrison is listed merely as producer, arranger and writer for the album. Peter Tork of The Monkees also played banjo, but was not credited.

All of the tracks were composed by Harrison, and it was the first official solo album by one of The Beatles. It was the first album release on the newly formed Apple Records, released in November 1968, a few weeks before The Beatles. It would also be the first Apple record to be deleted, though it was remastered and reissued on CD in 1992.

In the CD liner notes, Harrison's description of the recording done in England is revealing: "I had a regular wind-up stopwatch and I watched the film to 'spot-in' the music with the watch. I wrote the timings down in my book, then I'd go to Abbey Road, make up a piece, record it." While the tracks recorded in England were made on multitrack recording machines and remixed, the Indian portions were recorded live to two-track stereo.

Wonderwall Music did not chart at all in the UK, but incredibly reached #49 in the U.S. in the early part of 1969, probably just because it was by a Beatles member.

Britpop band Oasis, well-known for their Beatles influences and motifs, had a major hit with a song called "Wonderwall" in the 1990s, whose title refers to this album.

Lucy in the sky with diamonds + I am the walrus

Lucy in the sky with diamonds http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7F2X3rSSCU

The Beatles, I am the walrus http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBRss3HUipw

Oasis, I am the walrus (cover) @ Knewborth, with John Squire http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q12R1_68V0A

Ovvero: io sono il tricheco. Influenze nel testo: ovviamente Carroll, l’autore di “Alice in Wonderland” (vedi la canzone sotto “Lucy in the sky with diamonds”). Nel quarto capitolo di “Attraverso lo specchio”, c’è la poesia “Il tricheco e il falegname”. A questo proposito John Lennon, autore della canzone, disse: “Non avevo mai capito bene cosa significasse veramente. Solo più tardi mi resi conto che il tricheco era il cattivo e il falegname il buono. Pensai: ho preso il personaggio sbagliato. Avrei dovuto dire: "Io sono il falegname" ”. Anche in “Alice in Wonderland”, il tricheco era quello che all’apparenza si mostrava gentile, ma poi si mangiava tutte le povere ostriche. Spesso Alice sbaglia, pensa bene o male di un personaggio, e solo dopo cambia idea, anche qui col tricheco. La poesia del tricheco e del falegname inizia così:

Il Sole risplendeva sopra il mare,

Risplendeva glorioso e rilucente,

ogni cosa faceva scintillare

e non si risparmiava proprio niente;

brillava sotto il vivo raggio ogni onda,

e strano a dirsi, era ancora notte fonda.

John ammise tra l’altro di aver iniziato la stesura sotto l’effetto dell’LSD, difatti ascoltando questa canzone uno si chiede se l’ha composta un drogato o cosa :). E poi, nel sesto capitolo del libro di Carroll, c’è questo “uomo-uovo” presente nella canzone (“the eggman”), un uovo con tanto di naso, occhi e bocca. La canzone inizia con riferimenti alle scritture taoiste, difatti all’inizio dice: “I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together”, io sono lui come tu sei lui come tu sei me e noi siamo tutti insieme (che secondo me ha poi ripreso in parte Noel in "Lyla" scrivendo "She believes in everything, and everyone and you and yours and mine"). Nel testo poi ci sono immagini surreali, grottesche, quella della ragazza con le mutande abbassate provocò la censura della BBC. Poi compaiono anche gli Hare Krishna, tanto cari a George Harrison (vedi la canzone “My sweet Lord”) ed Edgar Allan Poe. Altre citazioni sono la famosa canzone dei Beatles “Lucy in the sky with diamonds” (tra l’altro l’LSD contiene le iniziali di Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds). E’ stato detto anche che addirittura una sirena della polizia ha fornito l’idea per un primo nucleo melodico (e per il verso riferito al poliziotto), questa canzone è proprio da malati di mente :). “Crabalocker fishwife pornographic priestess”, traduco qualche parte della canzone: “Crema di materia gialla che cola dall’occhio di un cane morto (che schifo!), pescivendola granchiarmadio sacerdotessa pornografica, ragazzo tu sei stato una ragazza (?) cattivella, ti sei tirata giù le mutande”. E poi: “sardina di semolino che scala la Torre Eiffel” (grrrrr...francese...). Bella la parte quando dice: “Seduto in un giardino inglese aspettando il Sole, e se il Sole non viene, ti abbronzi stando sotto la pioggia inglese”. GOO GOO GOO JOOB!

In coda si sente in sottofondo la voce di una radio che trasmette la scena sesta del quarto atto del “Re Lear” di Shakespeare.

La ragazza con gli occhi da caleidoscopio. Questa canzone trae ispirazione dal seguito di "Alice in Wonderland" dello scrittore-fotografo-matematico inglese Lewis Carroll, cioè "Attraverso lo specchio" di cui ho scritto in "I am the walrus". (Poi ce ne sono altri due: "Le avventure di Alice sottoterra" e "Nursery Alice" per bimbi da 0 a 3 anni :). In particolare, è ispirata dal capitolo quinto di "Alice nello specchio", in cui Alice discende un fiume in barca con la Pecora. Qui c'è la migliore vena creativa di John Lennon, la sua fantasia, è una straordinaria tessitura narrativa per immagini, diventata nella memoria di tutti una specie di affresco dell'era psichedelica. Di certo questo pezzo risente di quelle esperienze, anche se John spiegò che non è una canzone acida. Disse: "L'immagine era Alice sulla barca...ed era anche la donna che un giorno sarebbe venuta a salvarmi, una ragazza con gli occhi caleidoscopio uscita dal cielo". Leggo dal libro: Alice si trova sulla barca con la Pecora, è Alice a remare. A un certo punto nel testo Carroll dice: "...doveva esserci qualche cosa di molto curioso in quell'acqua, pensava Alice, perchè di tanto in tanto i remi restavano come piantati in qualche cosa di solido e ci voleva una bella fatica a tirarli su". Poi la Pecora avvisa Alice che questo non è uno dei soliti fiumi: pigli un granchio! "Un bel granchiolino! - Pensò Alice. - Beh mi piacerebbe!" Poi c'è una parte in cui Alice vuole fermarsi a raccogliere dei fiori altissimi, ondeggianti e profumati. "...e per un po' dimenticò la Pecora mentre si sporgeva dall'orlo della barca, coi capelli arruffati che sfioravano l'acqua e gli occhi scintillanti di gioia... – Oh bellino quello là, peccato che non ci arrivo... – Neanche a farlo apposta, sebbene Alice s'ingegnasse a cogliere una gran quantità di bei fiori mentre la barca scivolava via, ce n'era sempre uno più bello degli altri che non poteva raggiungere! ... Che le importava se i fiori, appena colti, avevano cominciato subito ad appassire e a perdere il loro profumo e la loro bellezza? Quelli, che erano fiori di sogno, svanivano quasi come neve al Sole, mentre erano lì ammucchiati ai suoi piedi... Ma Alice ci badava appena: c'erano tante altre strane cose che la incuriosivano!" La canzone dei Beatles inizia così: "Immaginati in una barca su un fiume, con alberi di mandarino e cieli di marmellata. Qualcuno ti chiama, tu rispondi lentamente, a girl with kaleidoscope eyes. Fiori di cellophane gialli e verdi che svettano sopra di te. Cerchi la ragazza con il sole negli occhi, e se n'è andata :(. Seguila sino a un ponte presso una fontana, dove persone cavallo a dondolo mangiano torte di marshmallow (come Marshmallow Man, il gigante bianco dei Ghostbusters :), tutti sorridono mentre scivoli oltre i fiori, che crescono così incredibilmente alti. Taxi di giornale (questa è un'immagine di McCartney) compaiono sulla sponda, aspettando di portarti via. Ci sali dietro con la testa fra le nuvole, e te ne sei andato... Immaginati su un treno in una stazione, con facchini di plastilina con cravatte di specchio, all'improvviso c'è qualcuno al cancelletto, la ragazza con occhi di caleidoscopio!"

Per quanto riguarda le iniziali "LSD", questa dell'acrostico è solo una leggenda, difatti John ha sempre smentito tutto: diceva che l'idea per questa canzone gli era stata data dal figlio Julian, allora bambino, in un disegno fatto per la sua compagna di scuola Lucy (che è morta proprio pochi giorni fa, dedichiamole questo post).

Zabriskie Point +who feels love?

the Italian movie "Zabriskie point" by Michelangelo Antonioni (1970) inspired Oasis for the video "Who feels love?" Brief summary: the protagonist Mark, tired of all, flees with a plane, makes love with a girl in that point of maximum geological depression, Mohave desert (Arizona, Usa), with final burst of technologic objects... And then she also imagines the explosion of a villa, books, clothes... Oasis song is taken from "Standing on the shoulder of giants" (2000), with New York on the cover (the Empire State Building and the Twin Towers in the background, 1 year before September 11...)

Quadrophenia 1979-2009 +fucking in the bushes

Quadrophenia movie (1979, about summer of '64) which inspired Liam for Pretty Green, and Oasis tune (though it contained samples from another movie: Message to love-Isle of Wight 1970).
If you read here, you rock. Well, you mod :)

We are the mods! riot scene with Sting +sex scene

Quadrophenia alley Brighton

It's a cult place, as Juliet balcony in Verona, where lovers write their names on a wall, but now there's a fuckin' Chinese restaurant and they erase them, fuckin' communist Chinese without heart. Chinese food sucks. The director of Quadrophenia said the protagonist would have voted BNP British National Party, so not really communist ^_^

30 anni fa...
il film Quadrophenia, sull'estate dell'64... 45 anni fa.
tutto come nel video di Liam per i vestiti Pretty Green.
Notare che la scena di sesso del film è dove poi nel video di Liam c'è la sciura che gli dice I love you muahauha ...è diventato un luogo di culto in Inghilterra, dove gl'innamorati scrivono sul muro, tipo casa della Giulietta di Shakespeare a Verona, ma adesso lì a Brighton c'è un ristorante cinese ghghghgh e cancellano sempre le scritte (cinesi senza cuore, e da quando maniaci del pulito? Barboni! - Marco Ranzani)
E poi nel film c'è uno Sting scatenato che dà mazzate a destra e a manca (era ancora giovane, poi le mazzate le avrebbe date a letto ehehehe ma proprio in questi giorni ha detto che quella storia del sesso tantrico era tutto uno scherzo)
Ci sono alcune cose in comune tra me e il protagonista (Jimmy, come in Look back in anger..), a parte la sorella che fa le lampade ghghghgh e la faccia da pirla ahahaha, usa una maglietta Fred Perry bianca con strisce blu uguale alla mia, poi ovviamente il parka, e di giaguarato come le scarpe di Liam, oltre al copriruota della Vespa, ha il letto giaguarato come il mio :))) ...sai che scene di sesso ahahaha ... grrrrrrrrrr come il giaguaro ghghghgh
In quel periodo però usavano molto i pantaloni bianchi, era nello stile dei mod. Tutto molto nazionalista come il simbolo, difatti poi il regista in un'intervista dice che il protagonista avrebbe votato per un partito nazionalista. Come Liam che nelle foto è avvolto da una bandiera britannica.E poi ovviamente ci sono anche robe molto Blur :) tipo "Parka life" :)) e "La vita moderna è spazzatura"...a proposito di me che ce l'ho sempre su coi computer e il progresso... rubbish.
E poi il tramonto che si vede nel video di Liam con lui che fa la salita, è quello dell'inizio film, che è anche il finale del film (perchè il protagonista non si suicida come sembrerebbe, visto che in quel posto tanti si buttano giù dalle scogliere bianche), una frase che dico spesso: la fine è l'inizio.

Brighton & Beachy Head, Eastbourne, May 18th, 2009. We are the mods. Me parka, me clothes, me sideburns, me fucking everything. Everytime you put one, you feel like going to war... and obviously buy it you fuckers! - The woman saying 'I love you' was put in the same place of sex scene in Quadrophenia ahaha the alley.

theatre: "Look back in anger" by John Osborne

La sua curiosità per le cose e per la gente era qualcosa di prodigioso. Non era la curiosità di un ficcanaso. Con lei era semplicemente il piacere di essere svegli e di guardarsi intorno.
(da "Look back in anger" di John Osborne) - L'attrice nelle foto è Kelly Reilly (era nel cast del film "L'appartamento spagnolo"), attrice inglese del '77.

I can't get a life if my heart's not in it...

(Quasi) nessuno ha più entusiasmo per fare niente. Invece io non sono così, qualsiasi cosa mi esalta.
E non sarà certo il Mortadella a spegnermi l'entusiasmo (questa cosa l'avevo scritta durante il leggendario "governo" mortadelliano).
Liam degli Oasis diceva più o meno così: "... (guardando le scarpe) ...shoes excite me, lager excites me... (intendeva la birra, non i lager... eh quel nazistone guerrafondaio di Liam...) ... (guardando lo sgabello su cui era seduto) ...stools excite me... Everything that excites a fuckin' young man..."

Più volte ho dato prova della mia abilità teatrale... Tanto per stare in campo musicale, celebre quella volta in cui a un concerto mi hanno beccato a registrarlo col mio "fuckin' recorder" (come venne poi soprannominato), e di fronte ai panzoni tipo Kenny Wheeler (non il trombettista), usciti tipo da un videogioco primi anni '90 stile Street Fighter, pieni di rabbia e di fuckin' di qui fuckin' di là, io abilissimo: "Ai dont spik inglish..." (ghghghgh lo studio tipo da 20 anni) e scuse varie (merita un post a parte). Un vero attore, li ho fregati.

Se qualcuno vuole organizzare uno spettacolo teatrale, mi propongo come protagonista di "Ricorda con rabbia" di Osborne... Leggetevi 'sto libretto anni '50, è corto, saranno un centinaio scarso di pagine.

Il film invece aveva come protagonista Richard Burton.

Leggo da una mia dispensa:

I "giovanotti arrabbiati" d’Inghilterra, tra i quali il commediografo John Osborne, di certo il più arrabbiato (non la cantante Joan Osborne…né Ozzy Osbourne! :-).

Il video “Wonderwall”, sconosciuta canzone :) della sconosciuta band inglese degli Oasis presenta la stessa scenografia della commedia teatrale “Look back in anger” di Osborne, un clamoroso successo, titolo poi storpiato dagli stessi Oasis nella famosa canzone “Don’t look back in anger”.

Osborne fu il drammaturgo fondatore della corrente dei giovani arrabbiati, “angry young men”, anni ’50: polemico rifiuto dell’establishment tradizionale, in nome di una nuova libertà individuale.

Il personaggio principale di questa commedia è Jimmy, un giovane nel quale mi sono identificato almeno per il 90% :), almeno per i miei difetti... Ma sì, parliamo dei miei difetti, un argomento molto interessante... :)
Come personalità somiglia al 100% agli Oasis.

"Jimmy è uno sconcertante miscuglio di sincerità e di allegra malignità, di tenerezza e di spietata crudeltà; irrequieto, pressante, pieno d’orgoglio, un impasto capace di renderlo antipatico sia alla gente sensibile che a quella insensibile. Una sincerità che ferisce, o troppo aperta, come la sua, si conquista pochi amici. A molti può sembrare sensibile al punto da essere volgare, ad altri uno che semplicemente parla troppo".
:)
(dall’Atto I)

Vabbè, io almeno scrivo :), non parlo troppo. Verba volant, scripta manent… Un vero conservatore...ghghgh

E, riferito agli Oasis, ma non a me (io non sono un violento né volgare, se non per scherzare):
"Essere violenti come lui è, a un certo punto, un modo di non compromettersi".
E anche quando poi dice:
"Perché non litighiamo? È l’unica cosa che so fare bene" (dall’Atto II, scena prima). Gli Oasis sono stati i maestri del litigio… Ma in fondo sono così buoni…

Alison parla di Jimmy: "Lui è convinto di possedere un talento speciale per l’amore e per l’amicizia. Questo…barbaro dello spirito mi getta il guanto di sfida. Forse solo un’altra donna potrebbe capire, come l’ho capito io, cosa significa una sfida del genere…" (dall’Atto II, scena seconda).

Helena parla di Jimmy: "Certe volte, quando lo ascolto parlare, ho l’impressione che si senta ancora in piena rivoluzione francese. E sarebbe il suo vero posto, del resto" (dall’Atto III, scena seconda).
Beh…questo è discutibile…
Altre tra le migliori frasi di Jimmy:

"È un secolo che non vedo qualcuno che abbia un briciolo d’entusiasmo per qualcosa!" :-/
"Nessuno pensa, nessuno si preoccupa. Niente fede, nessuna convinzione e nessun entusiasmo". :-/
"Come si può essere così schifosamente sentimentali! “Un profondo bisogno del tuo amore”! È nauseante". :)
"Quello che so è che qualcuno da anni sta conficcando spilli in una mia immagine di cera". :-/
"Mi sembra di non aver fatto altro in vita mia che dire addio alla gente". :-/
"L’ingiustizia è quasi perfetta. Quelli che non lo meritano, hanno fame,
quelli che non meritano di essere amati, sono amati,
e quelli che dovrebbero vivere, muoiono". :-/////
"Per potersi rilassare bisogna aver faticato molto". (questa l'ha presa dal Vangelo)

(dagli Atti I, II e III)

Noel is writing the World Cup anthem for England

News of the World ha pubblicato la notizia che Noel Gallagher sta scrivendo una canzone per accompagnare l’Inghilterra per la prossima Coppa del Mondo di Calcio in Sudafrica nel 2010.

La canzone sarebbe comunque un inno non ufficiale della Federazione Inglese (Football Association).

Noel è già al lavoro per presentare il suo nuovo materiale da presentare come solista il prossimo anno e pensa di poter includere anche un inno calcistico per la prossima Coppa Del Mondo.

L’ispirazione verrebbe da classici inni quali "Three Lions" (scritta dai The Lightning Seeds nel 1996).

Sarebbe il primo progetto da pubblicare come artista solista e secondo altre indiscrezioni pare che Tom Meighan dei Kasabian potrebbe parteciparvi alla voce.

Come on Capello, come on England!

Liam the annoying bee makes us feel ashamed

I knew this moment would've arrived: feeling ashamed of (having) been an Oasis fan. What a sad end. Instead of thinking about millions of disappointed fans, he thinks about the fuckin' bees.

I'll never forgive him, miss the last show they had to perform here.

How comes he suddenly passed from the status of "God" to the status of "Pirla" (idiot, in Milan dialect). Of course I'm joking, for me he was never a God...

I don't know if he's serious or if he's probably kidding the bees (he surely doesn't know that bees problem is serious), anyway Noel is surely fooling around him. Liam you're making a fool of yourself. A poor drunk in the park.

Ah in the photo Liam is that one on the right, the yellow one. Annoying person as a bee.

big news: Liam Gallagher realizes Oasis are over and says it's cool

Notiziona: Liam Gallagher si è finalmente accorto che gli Oasis sono finiti.

Gli Oasis sono definitivamente morti, ovvero non continueranno ad esistere senza Noel Gallagher, testuali parole di Liam rilasciate in occasione di un'intervista al Times.
Ecco parte della dichiarazione : "Bene, gli Oasis non ci sono più. Credo che a questo punto lo sappiamo tutti [no, tanti fan non lo sanno - n.d.M.]. È un peccato, ma la vità è così. [...] Il fatto è anche abbastanza... figo [per me sì perchè penso sia un imbecille e ce ne siamo liberati, ma per milioni di fans la cosa non è tanto figa eh... n.d.M.]. Adesso tutto ciò a cui sto pensando è quale sarà il mio prossimo passo musicale. [...] La gente potrà comprare i suoi dischi [quelli di Noel, n.d.r.] e i nostri dischi. Così tutti sono felici."

Cari fans del "divino" Dio Liam: dovete credere al vostro idolo anche adesso: fine, the end. E la colpa è stata chiaramente sua. Volubile come un alcolizzato, ogni giorno ne dice una diversa. Aveva ragione anche quando diceva che gli Oasis non si scioglieranno mai: perchè gli Oasis sono Noel, un vero uomo tutto d'un pezzo. Liam è un altro tipo di pezzo... Ma Liam ha ragione anche quando dice che potremo comprare i dischi di entrambi, e i vestiti di Liam: perchè poverino, dobbiamo fargli la carità... è sempre qui in giro per Milano, l'ho incontrato anche l'altro giorno, eccolo qui in foto... barbùn! :)

Noel with Adidas, Liam against the Guardian

Noel sarà protagonista in un nuovo spot dell'Adidas.

Ultime notizie.

Noel sarà protagonista di una grande campagna pubblicitaria dell'Adidas, un testimone che ha visto girare lo spot nel West End di Londra ha detto che è girato in due parti, una delle quali basata su una famosa scena del film Star Trek. Lo spot dovrebbe cominciare a vedersi dal prossimo mese.

Recentemente Ian McCulloch, frontman degli Echo and the Bunnymen, ha fatto intendere che, secondo lui, Noel Gallagher è stato costretto ad uscire dal gruppo in seguito ad una sorta di azioni di bullismo da parte di "gente che c'è dietro la band". Bravi, venite a dirlo a noi fans degli Oasis che vi spacchiamo il culo.

Anche Ian Brown, fonte di ispirazione per i fratelli Gallagher, dice la sua sulla vincenda Oasis. L'Ex cantante segli Stone Roses consiglia ai due fratelli di intraprendere la carriera solista come d'altronde ha fatto lui con i suoi Stone Roses.

Nelly Furtado non riesce ad accettare la separazione degli Oasis. "Ero inconsolabile quando ho saputo la notizia - ha dichiarato la popstar - gli Oasis significavano tutto per me. A sedici anni scrivevo a Liam per avere un appuntamento con lui, ma non mi ha mai risposto". "Ho imparato a suonare la chitarra su Wonderwall. Gli Oasis erano tutto ciò che amavo della pop music" ha concluso. Pare che ascoltando gli Oasis abbia anche perso la verginità. Quindi la sua famosa "I'm like a bird" probabilmente era autobiografica e si riferiva (l'uccello, sono come un uccello, ma forse anche "I like a bird", mi piace l'uccello uahuahauha) alla perdità della sua verginità ahahahaha

Dalle ultime parole dei Kasabian sembra che Noel potrebbe suonare in qualche canzone dei Kasabian durante il loro tour di novembre. Il cantante Tom Meighan ha detto: “E’ finita per gli Oasis adesso. Non sono affari miei ma ci devono essere stati molti problemi per costringere Noel ad andarsene. Se non sono problemi troppo grandi da non farlo tornare, è un triste giorno per il rock‘n’roll. Ho sentito Liam che ha intenzione di andare avanti senza Noel, ma per me è finita”.

I Razorlight stanno cercando un nuovo produttore e sembra sarebbero molto felici di avere Noel. In più Bjorn ha aggiunto che sarebbe curioso di sentire un disco solista di Noel in quanto per lui ha la voce migliore di Liam (te credo, Liam non ha più voce).

Nel frattempo Liam avrebbe chiesto un risarcimento danni per diffamazione al Guardian (giornale laburista inglese) dopo la montatura che il giornale fece sul concerto all'iTunes festival dove Liam uscì dal palco per fare la solita pausa quando Noel canta; il Guardian montò la cosa come un'uscita di Liam dal palco incazzato a causa del pubblico ubriaco che continuava a stuzzicarlo con bicchieri di birra e quant'altro gettati addosso.
