Noel Gallagher has dropped the video for his brand new single "Ballad Of The Mighty I" featuring Johnny Marr on guitar.
The song has been added to our current playlist and is taken from Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds forthcoming album 'Chasing Yesterday', which will come out on March 2nd via Sour Mash Records. The single is available now to download to those who pre-order the album here.
Gallagher describes his collaboration with Marr as “one of the best songs I’ve ever written.” He adds, “I tried to get [Marr] to play on the last album but it never happened. So when I put this track together and knew he would be perfect for it I called him and asked if I could send him the rough mix. He said: ‘No, I don’t want to hear it. I’m just going to react to it on the day.’ He didn’t even want any pointers. Well, that was brave of him. He just arrived with two guitars and a bag of effects pedals. And I have to say, he’s unbelievable. He’s way up there, on another level to the rest of us. The result is a burst of energy that helped make ‘Mighty I’ one of the best songs I’ve ever written.”
