Read Tony's book of you want the non-Gallagher reason: https://www.amazon.com/Oasis-Truth-Life-Oasiss-Drummer/dp/1843584999. The tl;dr is that Tony says he was the only one who stood up to Noel/challenged him on taking over the band and Noel says it's because even after paying for drumming lessons Tony was still inconsistent. I'm sure that the truth is somewhere in the middle, though Noel has definitely softened his stance and basically now says whatever Tony said happened is probably what happened.
It's an Amazon exclusive track from the Deluxe Version of the self-titled NGHFB album. I'm from the US so I don't know if this will help you, but here is a link to a version of the album that has it.
It does indeed seem to be a legit album according to Discogs. The label is The Godfatherecords and it's labelled as an Unofficial Release.
A few folk have it for sale:-

I am not saying these are all good however they are covers of Oasis songs which I can think of. I think you should give them all a listen to on playlist as although you will likely deteste some of these, I could apply some positivity when listening to a majority but by no means all. It was nice to hear an oasis collection from a varied perspective.
I have also included a link to a site which has over 80 examples of artists covering Oasis songs which I just came across. Worth checking out: http://www.whosampled.com/Oasis/covered/
Ones that I recall:
Rod Stewart - Rockin Chair John Lewis add?-Half a world away Paul Weller - One way road The Pretty Wreckless - Champagne Supernova - live lounge version has bit of Dear Prudance. Coldplay- Songbird Leona Lewis- Stop crying Your Heart out Lilly Allen- I'm outta time Keane - Cast no shadow Ben folds Five - Champagne Supernova Weezer- Morning Glory Ryan Adams - Wonderwall Maroon 5- Don't look back in anger MGMT- Live Forever Noel and Kelly Jones - Live forever Noel and Coldplay - Live forever - I think??
Obviously anything Noel has done with High Flying Birds :-)
Songfacts is a pretty good site when it comes to, well, song facts.
'The song, according to Noel Gallagher, rhythm guitar player, backing vocalist and pretty much composer of all things Oasis, is about losing someone close. His mother was in the hospital at the time and it was feared that she was stricken with cancer. This was later proved not to be the case, but at the time it gave Noel the idea of creating a very sad song... "quite bleak" according to Noel.'
'While the idea for the tune surfaced during the time Noel's Mother was hospitalized, he didn't have the lyrics until the day the song was recorded.'
Don't know a lot about the video though, so can't help you a lot with that.
Thank you very much! I pretty much used the chords from here https://chordify.net/chords/liam-gallagher-paper-crown-live-lyric-alexxssj. If you press the play button it brings the chords up as the music plays, pretty cool site! Would love to hear your version if you ever upload it!
Amazon Canada is showing the release date as December 13. So I would assume it would come out in the US right around that time.
ThisOasis Playlist is my playlist. Lives, acoustic versions, demos, solo career songs. I tried to add the best version of each song I like. I hope it helps you.
Also, you can read Oasis: The Truth by Tony McCarrollThe Truth, founder and first drummer of the band. Lots of insights from the very beginning of Oasis.
Good luck!
This is the songbook for Time Flies. It has everything written in standard notation and guitar tablature and is the most detailed and accurate resource you're going to be able to find: https://www.amazon.com/Oasis-Time-Flies-1994-2009/dp/1849386404/ref=sr_1_2?crid=2S7ONKCWX8EES&keywords=oasis+guitar+songbook&qid=1644880017&sprefix=oasis+guitar+songbook%2Caps%2C127&sr=8-2
Most Oasis songs are easy to play on guitar. I play acoustic rather than electric. I'm not particularly good I hardly ever get chance to play. I struggle with complex chords, especially Barre chords other than the simpler ones. I also can't read TAB or music but even so I still can manage most Oasis songs.
I really recommend this book. It's got every Oasis songs in it and makes it simple even for people like me that struggle to read music.

I got home early and was able to get a couple of designs together. They do look freaking slick with the proper fonts!

according to: https://www.musicgateway.com/royalties-calculator
he would have made £3.44 Million; provided he got 100% of the royalties. Really it should be anywhere from 2-3.5 million, as the rates vary a lot/
poor Bag It Up and Let's All Make Believe. always forgotten.

The Oasis Podcast, from which the material is sourced, is also well worth checking out for a deeper dive into the band. James has done tremendous work, and has interviewed an absolute shitload of people, including Tony McCarrol, Alan McGee, Owen Morris, Andy Bell, Brian Cannon, and friends, family, and also people in bands surrounding Oasis.
That’s the tab book for Be Here Now so every sound a guitar makes on that album along with the vocal melodies is transcribed in that book. And honestly man unless you’re willing to pay people your best best is gonna be learning to play those parts yourself.
