He is best known for being the frontman of one of the biggest bands in British music history, a band that has a deep connection with south Wales, a place that helped them on the road to more than just morning glory. But did you know that Liam Gallagher also does impressions? In particular, of an iconic French footballer that he should hate but actually loves?
As part of a new Sky documentary - Liam Gallagher: 48 Hours at Rockfield, which airs on Tuesday night (May 24) - the singer opens up on being a dad, his immense success as a solo artist, and mentions (naturally) his brother Noel. Ever the anecdotalist, the funniest tale of the whole documentary is when Liam reveals what happened when he asked football legend Eric Cantona to be in the music video for his hit single, Once, released in 2019.
Cantona is most famous for his eccentric ways and for being one of the most iconic players to ever play for Manchester United, the arch enemies of Liam’s beloved Manchester City. When the Frenchman mentioned on Instagram that Once was his favourite song, Liam pounced on an opportunity.
