Liam Gallagher knew well that the way he sang was tough on his voice and it must have been so deeply frustrating to have people saying oh he’s only the singer. yes, he was. the singer is sort of important, and he knows what he’s about. his characteristic tone is an over-engaged voice and a trained singer would never do that but it’s Liam … he knows where he sees beauty and he goes for it. the fact that he can go from that voice to his very pure head voice and back down again, flawlessly, consistently, is unbelievable vocal control. and then people, well-meaningly, say his voice is ‘raw’ as a compliment, well. his voice is unique. because he made it that way :’)

Link Click Musical contents??

Someone wrote a non-spoiler review of the musical on weibo. They seemed to enjoy it a lot despite not seeing the anime. (I've used DeepL Translator for their post)

The plot uhh I'm taking a guess they cover the episodic stories from s1 (noodle lesbians and earthquake arc for sure).

The set appears to have some sort of carousel mechanism. They also use a projector for additional animation/lighting effects. Transl quote: the carousel itself has the intention of the clock, the scenery also has the elements of the clock hand. (which sounds pretty neat ngl)

The person described main trio characters and praised the chemistry between them. It sounded very in character for CXS, LG and QL we know from anime. So it's safe to assume musical did a great job at characterisation. There seems to be a theme of conflict between CXS's and LG's way of doing things. Transl quote: Under the unchangeable important trajectory, friendship, love, family, destiny, regrets, and in the midst of a destiny that can't be changed, Cheng Xiaoshi will never give up his fight. CXC's never-ending struggle, Lu Guang's silence, the weight of knowing where he's going, and the loss of one life after another, and the immense grief that follows, are the tests of their bond..... So like, yeah they got it all right it seems 👌

Ok and for the wildest part that confused me the most and is probably a mistranslation >> I quote: There's a funny part in this scene when Cheng thought he had changed his destiny and made Lu Guang disappear, and when he sang a big solo and confessed his remorse, I thought he was about to lose it. The chemistry of this group is unique.

😶And I-......... Whatever they mean by 'funny', I won't rest until we get to see it. Subbed. PLEASsdfghjkl;'

Have the people whining about Louis’s festival set ever listened to one of Liam Gallagher’s festival sets? He includes an even higher proportion of Oasis songs than Louis does 1D, and no one whines about him forsaking his solo music or being an Oasis tribute act.

a better question, have these people ever paid attention to ANY other artist, ever, because their ideas of how things work and what Louis should do are WEIRD AS HELL... but yeah absolutely true, not that it's actually that hard to get a higher proportion than 3 out of 13 which is actually not the huge number they make it out to be, but anyway besides that Liam Gallagher (and most artists who play songs from their old bands ie almost every solo artist ever who have been in bands) just basically straight covers them as is, unlike Louis who is playing completely reworked versions of the old songs that make them both even more his own than they are anyway and also a seamless part of his current set/ sound ➡factcheck! I googled up a couple random LG setlists from his last solo album tour and the results were 1) of 22 songs 12 were Oasis songs (including the first three) and 2) 18 songs total, of which 10 Oasis songs and one cover. Actually the most interesting thing about that was discovering that his fans do a version of the post show outro song tracking we do with Louis only it's what he plays right before he comes out each night... hm! Anyway most solo artists play less than Liam G but I would guess a similar number to Louis, and that's for regular shows not even fests for which it makes sense to up that
