Oasis rocker Noel Gallagher has openly admitted plagiarising a Burt Bacharach hit for his B-side Half The World Away.

The Lyla guitarist has often been accused of being too heavily influenced by The Beatles and T-Rex, but he has no qualms about revealing his pilfering of the Bacharach/Hal David composed song This Guy's In Love With You.

He says: "It sounds exactly the same. I'm surprised he hasn't sued me yet."
