“What we do know for a fact is that when he says in interviews that he got into music at 12-13 by listening to Oasis, that's a blatent lie.” Didn’t he say his first band that he has tattooed covered Green Day and Oasis songs? Also Louis is not the only 1D member that likes Oasis… their songs are classics in their part of the world, it tracks that’s how he got into music even if he listened to other stuff that was popular at the time. Much how teenagers in America got into rock music listening to bands like Guns N Roses.
Also if you actually listen to Oasis, they aren’t a “bloody realism” band. In fact, the quite opposite. Liam Gallagher and Noel Gallagher hated Nirvana and Liam said about them that “music should be uplifting.” Which if it sounds familiar, it’s the way FITF was written. Listen to the songs Stop Crying Your Heart Out, Stand By Me, Live Forever, they sound all very Louis to me in a way!
Hi, anon!
Yes, Louis has said that. He's also said his kid is his and that he's straight. It's all about curating his image and trying to seem cool to a particular target group.
The fact is that we know, because there is evidence out there, that the Rogue did at least one (or two, depending how you count) cover songs. I got a feeling by the Black Eyed Peas (it's on YouTube last time i checked) and Look After You by the Fray (it's vocals by Louis but one of the other The Rogue members produced it). I wouldn't be surprised if they also covered Wonderwall or American Idiot, but i think Louis is trying to bend the truth here. I think they covered popular songs and more pop/pop rock songs than punk rock/britpop/indie songs. They were 14 and performed at school.
At his txf audition he sang Hey there Delilah by plain white Ts and Elvis ain't dead by Scouting for girls which is, according to wikipedia lol, emo-pop and pop rock. It's all very much in the pop genre to me.
I also didn’t say "bloody realism" i said "broody realism". Both the Gal*agher brothers seems like miserable people to me. They write about their working class experience and yeah, maybe it's got an "hey, things are shit, but pull yourself together" vibe about it.
I'm not saying Louis doesn’t enjoy these bands at all, he probably does. What i'm saying is that he's grossly exaggerating and emphasising how much he was into them as a kid. There is no reference of him being into them pre 2020, no posters on bedroom walls in old pics, no band t-shirts, and no trying to emulate them in any way (clothes or style) and no mention of them until now when he's trying to break into the indie scene and revive the britpop era. Louis wasn't an indie kid who found meaning at 14 in songs like Stop Crying Your Heart Out. He listened to the Fray, the Script and Nickleback and liked a variety of top 40 songs. But that's not very cool to say when you're trying to come off as indie and appeal to men who's music taste is pretentious, now is it... hence this rewriting of history were currently exposed to.
Wouldn't it be great if Louis actually owned the fact that he was the biggest S club 7 fan as a kid and that he listens to ABBA? He can do that while also appricate britpop music, alt rock and indie music. That would be genuine and that would be the truth.

When Noel was in high school, she was the coolest person at least Baz had ever met. Noel smoked, got detension and cpuld play the most sickest guitarr riff they had ever heard. Noel and Baz were the chaos duo who wanted to become the next Paul Mccartney and John Lennon. It never became true.
After Noel got into a university and the Unknowns broke up, Noel didn't know what to do. Thankfully, she met Lee Chan, a palentheology student living in her campus. Soon enough, Noel was in love. Without a second thought, she got engaged even tough she wowed to never get married when she was in high school. Love can make you do weird things.

Every since Aiden started talking about Elena, Caro has been on edge. Aiden knows it's because of Caro's past, but it doesn't make Aiden's feelings less valid.

-She is a huge kpop fan (i have biases to her. I'll tell them if someone asks)
-she is a good dancer

How was meeting noel? And touching him?
I’ve actually met him multiple times. First of all: I’m super shy around him. I was talkative and goofy with Bono and Edge, but for some reason Noel has a kind of authority over him that intimidates me and makes me unable to talk. So the first time I met him was in Brussels (17/04/16) and people had already called me unlucky because I managed to not meet Noel a single time at the 4 gigs before, which is apparently a rarity. I’ve now realized it’s actually pretty easy to meet him, so yeah.. they were right about how unlucky I was... Just shitty venues. He was SUPER grumpy in Brussels bc he had an encounter with his stalker in the hotel, but he still got out of the car on a fucking ramp to the underground parking garage, which is... not something he had to do y’know? So I easily forgive him for that. He acted a bit like a cashier, no personal contact, just signing everything and grumbling a bit when someone really demanded any interaction. He left about 3/4 into the line and tossed the marker over his shoulder, and when I looked at him walking away I was like.... holy shit that was noel.
Tumblr media
The next day was in Amsterdam and I knew the venue and that it was basically the easiest opportunity I would possibly ever have to meet Noel... I was with some friends and we were all joking around and then Noel arrived and everyone went quiet. My mate JD was leaning against the wall next to the door and she was completely unaware of why we all went quiet until Noel cleared his throat. (Still makes me laugh, sorry JD). Anyway, he was actually pretty laid back there. I mean, it was quiet as if there was a teacher back in class y’know?? But it wasn’t a bad atmosphere. I gave him a ‘boredom survival kit’ (WHICH IN HINDSIGHT IS SUCH A STUPID THING BUT IT MADE HIM SMILE) and I asked him to sign my flag. Note.. I had only stumbled out something like “I uh, got something for----” SO, when he signed my flag right. I held it out on the wall and I figured he’d take it over with one hand, cos that’s making sense right? But I forgot he’s left-handed!!!! So he couldn’t really get there and instead he had to shuffle real close and I just couldn’t breathe bc he was literally pressing himself against me at one point and i was like...... holy shit. And he smells all comfortable y’know?? Worn leather and warmth = me sold. Also he was really excited about my Bono autograph and he was all like “Is that Bono’s?” and I was like: [numb nodding my head] And I just.. couldn’t say anything but I was so excited so when he turned around I just SQUEAKED. GENUINELY SQUEAKED. AND HE LOOKED UP FROM SIGNING MY FRIEND’S RECORD AND HE LAUGHED AND fdjdjfsf sorry noel.
Tumblr media
The third time was actually really unexpected?? It was in Berlin at a festival and in my head you don’t meet people at festivals. It just doesn’t happen. But then our German friend (saying ‘our’ because my NGHFB buddy and I travelled together) arrived and she was like “So I’ve seen Phil around and he says Noel will be there and there..” So we basically took a position and watched the Berlin wall and the traffic and then we saw his buses arrive and I was like ohMGYODO!!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!. And we were the ONLY people there. Only the three of us. So when he got out of the bus he immediately saw us and it was so weird and there were like. people behind us but they were more interested in motorbikes?? Like, it was a bike and music festival but the priority was with the bikes..  SO THEY DIDNT REALIZE IT WAS NOEL!! So I was standing there, once again, awkwardly, and my mates were talking (my friend was like “I just want to shake your hand and say you’re awesome, is that alright?) and I was just.. waiting for my turn.. but then Noel noticed my flag in the middle of his conversation with our German buddy and he was like: “Hold on... Where did you get that?” and my throat didnt work so German buddy said: “It’s homemade.” And he was like: “WOAH!!??” [looks at it] “Can I take a picture?” and we were just standing there like... “sure.” So that’s the story behind this pic:
Tumblr media
And I also got a pic with Noel but I looked SO UGLY in Berlin but I’m gonna share it anyway bc my friends are laughing at how he looks like my SON. (Yes I’ve added a lot of filters to make it doable but jesus what a bad pic.... aaaargh)
Tumblr media
And the fourth time was in London after he invited us to the London gig at Lowlands and when he was standing there it went sort of like this:“Thanks for getting us in!” :D “Cheers mate.”[bit of silence]“Where’s your flag?”“At home.”[pause] “Oh.”“Hey uhm.. so can you sign ‘onwards’?”“What?”“.... Onwards.”[leans closer] “What?”“On-wards.”[Noel’s about to continue this]“I knew you’d make fun of my accent.”[Noel and his bodyguard laugh] “What’s your name?”“G’lies, G-L---”“Nevermind.” [signs it]So yeah. In total I’ve maybe said like..... 10 complete sentences to Noel lol, but he recognizes us by now. Tim (his guitarist) had a couple beers with us after the Berlin gig and he said that we were discussed backstage plenty bc our signs made Noel and the band laugh. :D ALSO I forgot to mention but in Berlin the band literally took the normal exit, right?? And one of my friends was pissed as fuck.... and he hadn’t met Noel yet so he swaggered over, right, and he put his hand on Noel’s shoulder with quite some force and Noel just gave him the most dirty look and i’m cackling we made fun of him on he entire train journey back dhfjdfjdf
