Liam Gallagher says that the Arctic Monkeys make him feel “awkward.”
Although the 38-year-old things they’re a decent band, he’s put off by how young the teenagers are.
Speaking about Alex Turner, he told Q Magazine: “I like him, I do, and he is definitely a bit of a genius lyricist, but he is still a kid.
“He was eight when ‘Definitely Maybe’ came out. What the fuck am I, a 38-year-old supposed to say to that? They make me feel awkward.”
In the candid interview, Liam also lamented about how Oasis aren’t quite the force they used to be, adding “What bothers me right now is that we are not the biggest band in the world any more.
“U2, The Stones even Coldplay are bigger than us.”
Erm, it would help if you wrote some decent tunes Liam.
