Noel Gallagher set to release his cover of John Lennon's 'Mind Games' - NME
Noel Gallagher has revealed that he’s set to release his cover of John Lennon‘s ‘Mind Games’, which he recorded to mark the late Beatles musician’s 80th birthday.
During the latest edition of his new Radio X residency, the former Oasis man spoke to Matt Morgan about taking on the 1973 single while he was working in the studio last year.
He’d been approached to contribute to a new covers album in tribute to Lennon, which was being assembled by his son Sean Ono Lennon.
“I couldn’t get involved because I was doing something at the time,” Gallagher explained. “And on the eve of his birthday, Sean said, ‘Oh you know how it’s dad’s birthday tomorrow, and can you do something on your socials?’
“I happened to be in the studio and I said, ‘Well, let’s record’. We just did a version of ‘Mind Games’ and did a little film.” (You can see that Instagram video below).
