Noel Gallagher donates 'Don't Look Back In Anger' profits to Manchester funds

According to NME, Noel Gallagher quietly donated the royalties from Oasis’ “Don’t Look Back in Anger” to help the victims’ families, following the Manchester attack on an Ariana Grande concert last month.

This follows Liam Gallagher slamming his brother for not participating in the “One Love Manchester” concert. The singer took to Twitter two days ago to call Noel a “sad fuck” for not playing his music at the event.

Noels out of the fucking country weren't we all love get on a fucking plane and play your tunes for the kids you sad fuck

In response to Liam’s tweets, Radio X host Gordon Smart defended Noel by revealing the news about his donation.

“It’s only right to point out, and I don’t think this is public knowledge because I’m sure he would never mentioned it, but I found out today that as soon as ‘Don’t Look Back in Anger’ started to appear spontaneously at the vigils, he made sure all the royalties went to the families,” said Smart. “That was before any gig was mentioned.”

Coldplay covered the song at Grande’s benefit, leading the audience in a sing along. They thanked and defended Noel on Twitter earlier today.
