GALLAGHER'S TURMOIL OVER HALLIWELL ALBUM NAME

NOEL GALLAGHER nearly named the new OASIS album after a song by GERI HALLIWELL - until his girlfriend pointed out the similarity.
Gallagher was trying to come up with a title for the British rockers' seventh studio album and finally settled on Bag It Up.
But when he told his long-term girlfriend Sara MACDonald, she pointed out to him that the former Spice Girl had already used the name.
He says, "The missus goes, 'Bag It Up? Isn't that a song by Geri Halliwell?' I was like, 'You've ruined my entire f**king year!'"
The band finally settled on the name Dig Out Your Soul for the new LP, which will be released later this year (08).
