Liam and Noel, who backed The Verve in 1993, have been friends with Ashcroft for a long time. ‘Cast No Shadow’ is another song that Noel penned in honor of Ashcroft.
‘As a fan from day one, I was excited for many reasons when the news of Oasis’s comeback was revealed,’ Richard Ashcroft remarked.
I can honestly claim that Liam’s unadulterated enthusiasm as a lead vocalist and Noel’s compositional prowess inspired me to write some of my finest songs. ‘Live Forever’ was so flawless that I felt compelled to attempt writing my own.
“I will always remember those days with joy because they dared to be great and made our dreams come true.” I’m prepared to contribute additional memories now that it’s time to do so. See you in the summer. “Music is power.”
In 1993, Oasis supported The Verve on one of their first national tours, often performing before a small crowd of a few hundred people only months before the release of their breakthrough song, Supersonic.
