Noel Gallagher to donate large sum of Oasis Live '25 Tour earnings to charity
The Wonderwall hitmaker is set to rake in millions from the Britpop legends' first tour in 16 years, but the generous rock 'n' roll star is to set aside a sizeable portion of the proceeds for the charity he has been an ambassador of for many years.
A source told The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column: 'It's no secret that Noel and Liam are both making millions from the reunion tour.
"But Noel is actually giving some of his cash away.
'He's made it clear a large donation will be heading to Teenage Cancer Trust from his share of the proceeds.'
It's been estimated that the stadium tour - which kicked off on July 4 in Cardiff - will make a whopping £400 million in ticket sales and related revenue.
Meanwhile, a new study has claimed Oasis earned a whopping £7 million from Spotify streams of Wonderwall alone.
Casino comparison and analysis site La Planque Du Joueur conducted research and found that Wonderwall has earned £7,057,223 in streaming revenue, as of July 8, 2025.
They used the average payout of $0.004 per stream to come to this conclusion, and Wonderwall has been streamed 2.3 billion times.
Don't Look Back in Anger is the second highest earner with over 1.1 billion streams, generating £3,247,265 in revenue.
Champagne Supernova and Stop Crying Your Heart Out are said to have earned them £1,449,431 and £1,378,028, respectively.
The Top 10 songs - also including Married With Children, Live Forever, Stand By Me, She's Electric, Supersonic, and Slide Away - gave them a total of £16.8 million.
Jean Morlec from La Planque Du Joueur commented: "These figures show that Oasis' music remains incredibly popular on streaming platforms, with Wonderwall standing out as one of the most streamed songs of its era. The band's top songs continue to generate substantial revenue more than 30 years after they were first released."
"With the current reunion tour driving renewed interest in their music, we can expect these streaming numbers to climb even higher. Their back catalogue has become a valuable asset that continues to generate millions in revenue year after year."

Rome City Councillor claims 'negotiations are underway' to bring Oasis to the Italian capital in 2026
The Rome City Councillor for Major Events, Alessandro Onorato, has fuelled speculation Oasis are set to perform in Italy in 2026. Despite claims the Oasis Live '25 Tour will not go beyond 2025, Onorato has alleged "negotiations are underway" to bring the Britpop legends back to the European country for the first time in 17 years. Speaking on Radio Sei this week, as quoted by La Cronica De Roma, Onorato said: 'In 2026, Oasis could take their tour to Europe. And yes, we've applied to host them in Rome.' He continued: 'Oasis in the capital? These are live shows for companies that organise events all over the world, and the financial aspect is crucial. Negotiations are underway.' As it stands, the Slide Away rockers are due to wrap their first jaunt since 2009 on November 23, 2025 in São Paulo, Brazil. Frontman Liam Gallagher recently insisted he and guitarist Noel Gallagher - who were embroiled in a messy 15-year feud before agreeing to put the past behind them to give Oasis fans the reunion they'd always dreamed of - will "take it one day at a time" with regards to the future. The band's manager, Alec McKinlay, insisted the Oasis Live '25 Tour isn't the beginning of new releases from the band. He told Music Week magazine: "This is very much the last time around, as Noel's made clear in the press. "It's a chance for fans who haven't seen the band to see them, or at least for some of them to. But no, there's no plan for any new music." The news sent shockwaves through fans, with one asking frontman Liam on X: "liam I don't know who the manager of Oasis is, but his attitude of telling us that after this tour there will be nothing more was not very biblical. (sic)" However, it seems the Live Forever singer isn't ruling anything out with his brother. Liam replied: "Neither do I and the only people that will be making any kind of decisions on the future of OASIS will be ME n RKID so let's just take it 1 day at a time. (sic)" The Shockwave singer followed up his response by suggesting he could even do another album with John Squire, after he and The Stone Roses guitarist released a joint self-titled LP last year. He penned: "I might do another album with John who knows I might join the spiritual space invaders I might do nothing that's the groovy thing about the future nobody knows."

Oasis' most memorable lyrics revealed
Don't Look Back in Anger's closing lyric has been voted Oasis' most memorable. Brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher are currently in the midst of their reunion tour, and fans have been singling out their favourite lyrics, and not only did 'Don't look back in anger, I heard you say' from the group's 1996 single top the list, another line from the song – 'So, Sally can wait, she knows it's too late as we're walking on by' – made it into third place. In second, was Wonderwall's chorus line 'I said maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me', while lyrics from Live Forever and Stand by Me rounded out the top five. The research also looked at the lasting emotional connection fans have to Oasis songs, with 44% citing emotional impact as what makes a lyric iconic, while 35% value clever wordplay or rhyme and 13% credited one of the group's tracks for helping them reconnect with someone. Car hire company SIXT, who commissioned the research, have celebrated the Supersonic lyric 'Can I ride with you in your BMW?' by running a competition to win a premium BMW rental over the upcoming weekend 1-3 August, which will see Oasis take to the stage for another three shows at Wembley Stadium. Andrew Smith, SIXT UK Managing Director, said: 'The level of excitement around the band's reunion is rarely seen, so this is our own tribute, inspired by the lyrics we love. We're thrilled to celebrate their legacy by giving fans the chance to live out a bit of that rock and roll magic with a ride in one of SIXT's premium BMWs. 'We've seen a real surge in demand for premium vehicles, especially in cities along the tour route, and it's clear fans are keen to travel in true rock and roll style.' And that's not all as SIXT will be handing out free bucket hats to anyone named Liam or Noel renting from their London Wembley, Heathrow, and Edinburgh branches during the tour dates in those cities - while stocks last. The top 20 most memorable Oasis lyrics: 1. 'Don't look back in anger, I heard you say' – Don't Look Back in Anger 2. 'I said maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me' – Wonderwall 3.

Oasis support act Cast's frontman John Power reveals Liam and Noel Gallagher are 'hunky-dory' on tour
Cast frontman John Power says there is a "positive energy" between former enemies Liam and Noel Gallagher on the Oasis Live '25 Tour. The Liverpool band are supporting the Manchester legends on their first tour in 16 years, and the former La's rocker says the pair 'seem to be in an absolutely wonderful place'. He told Vulture: 'They both genuinely … well, of course they want to be there, but you can feel the positive energy. It's all going hunky-dory.' John also heaped praise on frontman Liam - who has suffered with vocal issues in the past - for "whatever he's doing" to keep his voice on "top form". He said: 'He's very, very focused at the moment. 'I know that this tour means a hell of a lot, if not the world, to him. He's doing everything to make sure that he can go on. The worst thing is if you're tired, because your voice gets knackered and a bit strained. He's in top form at the moment. Whatever he's doing, he's doing the right things because his voice sounds absolutely wonderful.' Liam and Noel have been walking out onstage each night hand-in-hand in a display of union. The pair had been estranged for 15 years, following a backstage bust-up between the pair at their final concert in Paris in 2009, but reunited in the same room in 2024. As for Liam's top notch vocals, he and Noel Gallagher are said to be using straw phonation. The Britpop icons are said to have a ton of paper straws backstage to blow into to keep their voices warmed-up before each gig on the mammoth sold-out jaunt - having both been plagued with vocal issues in the past. A source told The Mirror: 'Noel and Liam are doing everything in their power to ensure they sound at their very best for these mammoth sold-out shows. It is well know that Liam has had issues with his voice in the past and he has found straw phonation to be a great way to warm-up his vocal cords. 'Noel has been an advocate of it for years since he had issues with his voice when he supported U2 on tour in 2019. It has made a huge difference to how he sings. There will be plenty of paper straws backstage for the brothers, but they won't be used to sip cocktails.' Wonderwall hitmaker Noel has previously confirmed how he came to use a straw to warm-up his vocal cords. Speaking on The Matt Morgan Podcast in 2022, Noel said: 'When I was on tour with U2 and there was a lot of parties. "At one point, when we were in Australia, my voice was shattered, it was in a bad way. We'd been out late the night before and we had a gig the next day and I woke up and my voice was f***** and wasn't coming back. 'So, I went to see a vocal specialist in Melbourne. I go in there and the guy says, 'Sit down Mr. Gallagher, so I believe your voice is a bit crook?' I said, 'Yeah. It's a bit f*****, I've been on the road for a couple of years.' 'Do you warm up before you go on stage?' I said, 'A bit, but I don't really like belting it out.' To cut a long story short he gave me this straw, just a normal paper straw, and he said, 'Half an hour before you go on, in your room, put some music on and put this straw in your mouth and just hum along to whatever comes on and your vocal cords will warm up.' I went, 'Really?' And he said, 'Just try it mate, it will change your life.' I did and it's an amazing little trick. 'I was a bit sceptical, but it really does work."
