The former Oasis frontman has responded to a video clip of Damon Albarn discussing the track.

Liam Gallagher has mocked Blur's Song 2 single, suggesting it's rubbish.

The former Oasis frontman replied to a clip of his former Briptop rival Damon Albarn discussing how several people in the States have tried to claim songwriting credits to the 90s anthem.

Sharing his take on the video, the Manchester rocker wrote: "Gotta be of your box to claim to have written that song absolute TURDOS".

When a fan opined that it was better than anything the Manchester legend has written, he replied: "I could write that standing on my head you sp**kbubble".

He then added: "It’s music for posh brats".

However it wasn't all negative criticism, as Liam had some praise for an album track from the Britpop band's 1991 Leisure album.

Quizzed what Blur song he would have liked to have written, he replied: "Sing".

It's not the first time Liam has been vocal on Twitter this month, recently responding to former bandmate Andy Bell's comments about an Oasis reunion.

The Ride co-founder - who played guitar in Oasis from 1999 - 2005 and was in Gallagher's next project, Beady Eye until its dissolution in 2014 - recently gave an interview, where he said he thought the Britpop band would "probably" reunite "at some point".

However, taking to Twitter, Gallagher suggested the musician shouldn't be getting fans "hopes up".

When a fan pointed out that the guitarist was simply doing what Liam has himself done in the past, he responded: "I’ve never mentioned oasis reunion it’s over we must all really move in for our own mental health".
