Oasis' "Lyla" is "Sally's sister".

[LoZoccolo]

While the identify of the ‘Lyla’ in the song is as yet unclear, the official release statement claims; “‘Lyla’ is ‘Sally’s sister…” possible drawing refereence to the Sally mentioned in the Oasis single ‘Don’t Look Back In Anger’.

The release of the next album, Don't Believe The Truth, could get very interesting if Noel Gallagher keeps tossing out these mysteries to us.

1. Oooo he's so Beatles-like

Not.

[flvegan]

2. "Lyla" is what Noel Gallagher named his monobrow.

[LoZoccolo]

3. It's called a unibrow, and Noel Gallagher does not have one.

This has been roundly disproven.

4. Here, look...

The resemblance is stunning:


Moses couldn't part that bad boy.

[LoZoccolo]

5. There is no picture of Noel Gallagher in your post.

That's like saying "here, the resemblance is stunning" about John Lennon and posting a picture of Godzilla or something but not posting a picture of John Lennon next to it.

6. Oasis is to music...

What the Bush family is to politics. :evilgrin:

[LoZoccolo]

10. Anyone can make an unsubtantiated comparison.

I could say the Beatles are to music what Stalin was to politics, but it wouldn't mean anything.

7. This Oasis, is but a mirage.

[LoZoccolo]

9. Didn't they teach you in Beatlist propaganda school?

You should never use more than one wisecrack per Oasis thread, but you should conserve them, because they are few and far between.

8. The album title sure as hell is mysterious

Don't Believe The Truth. I don't know what to make of that, but I am no great musician. "Definitely Maybe" was also a mysterious title and possibly the best album of all time, so I am geeked for the next one.

11. 'Don't Believe The Truth'

wow, it just doesn't get more profound than that.
