Damon Albarn recently dropped a hint that he and Noel Gallagher discussed the possibility of working together. Now, Noel is disputing the claim in a recent Reddit AMA session, when asked about the idea, he said, "The thing with Damon was a flippant comment as casually thrown around as 'We should go for a drink.' As for makin' an album, I would be amazed if either of us ever had the time to make that work."
While we wait for that possibility, one of Blur's biggest critics, Noel's brother Liam, has taken to Twitter to praise Blur's single "Lonesome Street." Liam tweeted:
Lonesome St by BLUR song of the year LG x
