It's All About The Charts

Oasis rocker Noel Gallagher has hit out at music legends The Clash and Radiohead for refusing to compete in the charts. The rocker is proud of his band's mainstream status, and casts a critical eye on alternative acts who try to avoid featuring in the top ten. Gallagher says, "I've never understood that kind of thing. Like The Clash going, 'We're not playing on telly.' Well f**k off then. "When we first started we said we were the greatest band in the world. We should have said we were the best band in the charts. 'Cos to me, the world is the charts. "I don't give a f**k about Radiohead and all that indie nonsense. I was brought up on the top 10. Slade, T Rex, David Bowie. "If you're not in the charts, you don't exist."
