Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about I'm Outta Time. By Songfacts®.

This vulnerable ballad was written by Liam Gallagher. Guitarist Gem Archer told Q magazine October 2008 that, "it's really heartfelt, there's a melancholy there and that's what's Liam's showing." Liam's brother, Noel added, "deceptively brilliant, one for the ladies."

Noel Gallagher told the NME why this ballad was placed in the middle of the record. He explained: "There's a kind of piano-y, John Lennon-y obligatory plod-away song in the middle, which Liam wrote, and that's to break up the two sides (of the album) which are pretty intense, and it's full-on from the start to finish."

This samples an audio excerpt of a John Lennon BBC Radio interview done two days before his death. Archer told John Kennedy on XFM radio: "I think Liam was hearing it in his head before it was there, like he might have gone 'Let's have a donkey on it' or 'A brass solo'… It's from a cassette bought in Currys with a faded biro."
