After a fan asked Liam on social media: "How's your voice sounding? It best be good!"
Frontman Liam went on to reference a huge Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan hit - Especially For You which was a huge hit in the eighties.
Liam replied: "I sang especially for you by K n J in the shower and I smashed it so it's looking promising."
"He's so down with it " joked the poster.
Before they added: "Yeah but can u sing small town boy yet by Bronski Beat?? That's the real test."
After that weird revelation another follower added: "People shouldn't be worried about your voice, because it's a fact that sounds BIBLICAL."
Liam cheekily responded: "You won't be able to hear me anyway as you lot will be scream Liam Noel Liam Noel."
"Wrong we'll scream O A S I S after 16 years" replied another.
While another added: "It'll be like Beatlemania all over again….except it will be Oasismania."
The update comes after the Oasis brothers filmed in North London last week.
The brothers — who have made up after years of rows — arrived separately for a top-secret set to be shown in a promotional film for their upcoming reunion tour.
Liam, 52, and Noel, 57, arrived wearing shades outside the Mildmay working men's club in Stoke Newington, North London.
The building had been locked down, with staff sworn to secrecy about the Mancunian brothers getting back together again for Thursday's hush-hush performance.
As well as promoting the tour, it was also part of a mega-money Adidas ad campaign — and clobber from the sportswear giant was seen being brought in to the club.

Last week The Sun On Sunday revealed the look for the ads was based on Noel and Liam's love of the brand — and that their 1994 hit Live Forever was one of the songs chosen for the campaign.
Oasis shot to fame with their 1994 debut album Definitely Maybe.
They sold more than 70 million records worldwide and clocked up eight UK No1 singles and just as many UK No1 albums.
But the brothers' relationship became increasingly fraught and they split up before they were due to play a gig in Paris in August 2009.
The brothers then traded insults for years - with Liam comparing Noel to a 'potato' and branding his new ban High Flying Birds the 'high flying turds'.
Meanwhile, Noel called his younger brother 'a fat man in an anorak'.
However rumours of a reunion started in early 2024 — and The Sun revealed last August that Oasis were getting back together again — to the joy of millions of fans.
They will play 19 shows in the UK and Ireland this summer, all of which sold out in minutes, before touring the US, Australia and South America across September, October and November.
A source said of rehearsals for the tour: 'The sessions are looking to start around mid-May.
'It's going to be short but sweet.
"The band haven't all played together in a long time but when it comes to performing Oasis tracks, it's like riding a bike.
'It's just a question of making sure that everyone is up to speed and that they have the set-list tracks nailed down.'
Richard Ashcroft and Cast have been confirmed as the support acts.

Liam Gallagher threatens to quit social media after big announcement backlash Liam Gallagher has been ramping up excitement for the upcoming Oasis reunion tour but fans were left less than impressed by his latest 'big announcement' Liam Gallagher has jokingly threatened to quit social media after teasing a 'big announcement' with fans this morning (Image: Getty Images for Bauer Media ) With the countdown ticking towards what promises to be an epic reunion, Oasis fever is hitting peak levels, with fans on tenterhooks for any morsel of news. Liam and Noel Gallagher are poised to set Cardiff alight with the inaugural gig of their monumental 2025 Oasis reunion tour on Friday, July 4, yet details about what to expect from these much-anticipated performances remain tantalisingly scarce. Welsh fans will bask in the glow of two performances before the band hits Manchester's Heaton Park for a run of five gigs from July 11 to July 20. Social media was abuzz this morning as Liam reached out to his 3.8m followers on X, dangling the carrot of a 'big announcement', sparking rumours ranging from potential warm-up gigs to exciting new acts joining the tour line-up.

But when the moment came, many couldn't help feeling a tad underwhelmed by Liam's revelation at 6:30 am that was simply: "I WORK OUT", reports the Manchester Evening News. Fans expressed their bemusement and slight annoyance at the anticlimactic announcement with one quipping: "That's the big announcement?". Another fan said: "Is that the bloody announcement! ? ! Back to work it is for me." Article continues below A third fan chimed in with "You're a comedian." The anticlimax sparked frustration among fans who had been whipped into a frenzy, but Liam interacted with several of his followers in the aftermath. Facing a comment that read: "I HATE YOU". Liam retorted with "Hate is such a strong word."

After teasing an announcement and causing quite the stir, Liam humorously conceded his mischief by saying: "Gotta admit that was good craic gotta you all riled up to ras." He sought forgiveness for any dismay caused: "If I caused any distress and upset anyone this morning I'm deeply sorry that wasn't my intention. "I thought it was a bit of fun. I got it wrong please forgive me LG." Liam also hinted at retreating from social media due to the reaction he received, stating: "Guys I think I'm gonna close my twitter account and think long and hard about my EXISTENCE this morning has been a real eye opener." Last week saw Liam in tour rehearsals with Noel, but the exact location remains undisclosed. On social media, Liam expressed his excitement about the progress: "We have LIFT OFF Rastas sounded f****** FILTHY I'll tell thee that there for hardly anything LG x." Liam teased fans online this morning, saying he was going to have to 'think long and hard about my existence' following the response (Image: WireImage ) However, those familiar with Liam's online antics wouldn't be too surprised by his playful posts. In the previous year, he tricked fans into thinking an Oasis album was ready, boasting it was 'already finished' and 'in the bag', claiming to be 'blown away' by it, only to reveal later it was all in jest: "**** me, it was a laugh." While Liam wasn't directly involved, a joke stunt with an Oasis theme took place in Greater Manchester last week.
