London
(ANI):
Sir
Elton
John
has
slammed
Oasis" co-lead
singers
and
brothers
Noel
and
Liam
Gallagher
calling
them
“stupid
sods"
for
failing
to
crack
America.
John,
63,
said
the
two
Noel,
43,
and
Liam,
38,
were
very
popular
until
they
cancelled
a
series
of
gigs
in
the
US
in
the
mid-Nineties.
“They
were
enormous
in
Britain,
they
were
enormous
in
America
and
they
went
over
there
and
argued
between
themselves
and
cancelled
the
tour
and
they
never
broke
America," the
Sun
quoted
him
as
saying.
“You
only
get
it
once,
and
if
you
blow
it,
it"s
gone.
You
can"t
not
regret
that.
I
always
thought,
'You
stupid
sods.
You"ll
never
get
that
opportunity
again","
he
stated.
John
went
on
to
say
during
an
interview
with
Absolute
Radio"s
Christian
O"Connell
that
he
thinks
the
Gallagher
brothers
are
only
children
compared
to
the
members
of
Coldplay
and
Muse.
“It"s
only
the
cream
that
rises
to
the
top.
It"s
always
the
ones
with
the
best
work
ethic
and
the
best
material
and
the
best
attitude," he
said.
“You
know,
it"s
the
boys
from
the
men.
Coldplay,
Muse,
U2,
Police,
all
those
bands.
They"re
the
men,
and
all
the
rest
are
boys," he
added.
