The deluxe edition of Noel Gallagher's new album Who Built The Moon? features an incredible acoustic song "Dead In The Water." The track has quickly become a fan favorite due to Gallagher's intimate and emotional performance and lyrics.
Gallagher recently spoke with Virgin Radio Italia and revealed that it took him less than an hour to write the magical song, and shockingly enough he wrote "Dead In The Water" while he was zoning out to the television with the sound down. Only days after he wrote the song he played a live session in Dublin for RTE 2FM. While there was a bit of downtime Gallagher played the song, mostly to entertain himself, and didn't realize tape was rolling. He learned of the recording last year while putting together Who Built The Moon? and decided to include it as bonus material.
Gallagher says he has no intention of recording a studio version of "Dead In The Water" and called the captured acoustic performance "a real special moment in time."
