Lyla Track Comments
"Lyla" might have been started after I listened a track by The Who, called "Armenia, City in the Sky". I'd written the song and it was originally called "Smiler", but Gem had already had a song with that title, so I had to change it. And the only girl's name I could f***ing come up with that rhymed with Smiler was Lyla. It's about a heroine, the line 'catch the silver star" I think I might have nicked off the Woodstock video. That f***ing done the business for us, that song, and it nearly never made it onto that album. I had a really low period, I'd lost all enthusiasm for writing after Be Here Now, then Standing On The Shoulder Of Giants and parts of Heathen Chemistry. I didn't know where I was going with it, I didn't know what I was trying to f***ing do, and "Lyla" re-energised the band. I didn't really know how good it was 'till the first night we played it. It's a great pogo-ing song.

Liam Gallagher - At the moment (Nov '06), this is my live favourite. It's f***ing stomping, man. And vocally I can just attack it, d'you know what I mean? I love singing, I'm mad for it.I'd do a gig right f***ing now if we could!
