Some Might Say: The Life Of Noel Gallagher

By Steven Marcus

Some Might Say tells the story of Noel Gallagher, the songwriter who turned a frightened, stammering boyhood in Burnage into some of the most beloved music Britain has ever produced. It begins not with fame but with an ordinary, difficult childhood, a violent father, an undiagnosed learning difficulty, a guitar taught to himself upside down in a bedroom he never wanted to share with his younger brother. From there the book follows him through years spent as a roadie for Inspiral Carpets, into the chaos and glory of Oasis, and across the two albums that defined an entire decade of British culture.

It does not shy away from the parts of the story that made headlines for the wrong reasons, the sibling brawls, the tabloid wars, the excess that nearly buried the band's best work. But it insists, just as firmly, that the chaos was never the whole picture. This is a book about persistence as much as fame, about a boy who was written off by nearly everyone around him deciding, quietly and stubbornly, that his songs deserved an audience anyway. It ends where the story now stands, with two brothers back on the same stage after sixteen years apart, closing a circle that began in a shared bedroom decades earlier.
