‘The stars have aligned’* *In 2025 - coincidentally the year of the Oasis tour - Noel Gallagher will fully own the publishing rights to the songs & wants to flog them for hundreds of millions

From The Times: Some years ago, Noel identified 2025 as the first time such a sale could take place: that is the year he said that the songs' publishing rights will be fully owned by him, as outlined in their record contract.
A sale of Oasis song rights for hundreds of millions of pounds sounds like Noel's masterplan. He just needs to keep things cordial with his brother for another 12 months.
Noel is acutely aware of the goldmine he could be sitting on. "[Bob] Dylan just sold his back catalogue," he said three years ago.
"What do you do? Leave it to your kids?
They don't value music. Or do you take the £200 million and buy the superyacht and the Learjet and go, 'F***ing have it, come on!' I think the latter."

“They don’t value music.” Hahahah. The “value” of music is, as all artists know, measured in oligarch vanity wank items. Oasis are now canonically Yacht Rock.
