Noel Gallagher Dedicates Slide Away To Pregnant Girlfriend















Noel played a solo set for charity at the Royal Albert Hall last night

Noel Gallagher dedicated a song to his pregnant girlfriend at his Teenage Cancer Trust charity concert last night (26.03.07).

The Oasis guitarist spoke affectionately about long-term love Sara MacDonald, who is four months pregnant, before introducing classic song Slide Away.

He said: "I'd like to dedicate this next song to my lovely Mrs, Sara."

Earlier in the evening, Noel was joined by friend Paul Weller at the special acoustic show at London's famous Royal Albert Hall.

Noel - who has performed at the annual fundraising concert on a number of occasions - said: "So, as it's the Teenage Cancer Trust and as it's the Albert Hall, I'd like to introduce, somewhat predictably, Paul Weller."

The pair, accompanied by Oasis guitarist Gem Archer and percussionist Terry Kirkbride, then launched into a version of The Jam's Butterfly Collector, to the delight of the sell-out crowd, followed by a cover of The Beatles' classic All You Need Is Love.

Noel opened his show with a selection of Oasis B-sides, including (It's Good) To Be Free and Fade Away, which was included on the 1994 hit single Cigarettes and Alcohol.

The musician was joined for the second-half of the show by an all-female string orchestra. He then treated fans to a version of the rarely played Don't Go Away, taken from Oasis' third album Be Here Now.

Noel was in good spirits and joked with the crowd throughout the night.

Before playing Wonderwall, he responded to chants for his brother Liam, by saying: "Unfortunately Liam can't be here tonight. I did ask him to come down but the words f**k and charity followed in the same sentence."

He closed the show with a cover of The Smiths song There Is A Light That Never Goes Out, Don't Look Back in Anger and Married With Children.

As the crowd started to make their way out, Noel surprisingly strolled back on stage to cover The Beatles' Strawberry Fields.

Scottish rockers The View and Liverpool band Shack both provided support on the night.
