Noel Gallagher has explained the reasons behind the running order of Oasis' forthcoming singles collection album 'Time Flies'.
In an exclusive new video interview about his time in the band - which you can view on the right of your screen now - the guitarist explained his choices.
"I tried to look at it like a gig – albeit a very fucking long one," he said. "'Supersonic' seems like a great opener, and 'Falling Down' seems like a great last song in the set."
Gallagher added: "You could do it chronologically, but then all the real iconic stuff is at the front."
A total of 23 new videos featuring Gallagher talking about the compilation will be released online in the coming weeks. See Oasisinet.com for more information.
