Please what is this???

I mean are we even surprised anymore? This is the man who announced "we had sex last night" in front of 30,000 people. He's been dying to be acknowledged as Noel’s lover since like 1996, he's not going to deny it.

[jeevey]

So I was reading this recent interview of Akiko Ozawa (who’s known Gallaghers since the 00s) from Sony Music Entertainment about oasis exhibition in Tokyo and she said some interesting stuff about the reunion, and I thought I’d share some quotes form the article! Sorry in advance for my poor Japanese to English translation.

(can't attach links as an anon but it's on the website called cocotame)

“I heard from [Noel’s] manager that Noel's private life had changed, and I instantly thought, ‘the reunion is happening then.’”

“…last year, the problems that had been preventing the restart were cleared one by one, and to me it felt like all the pieces of the puzzle fell into place. I thought, ‘The reunion is happening’”

"I heard later that apparently the management in the UK had just started preparing for the reunion around June of last year. So that means we felt [the sign of the reunion] around the same time. I think it truly was the timing that felt like ‘it’s now or never’.”

+ This is totally going off on a tangent but I’ve read a couple more interviews of her and when she was asked about the relationship between Liam and Noel, she said “Liam loves Noel so much” in both articles😭

Thank you!!!

FYI, you definitely can post links in an anonymous ask. They just don't format as clickable, so readers have to copy and paste the text into a browser window. I'm sure many people would be thrilled to do that, so please go ahead and paste links in a new ask!

You are juggling to prove that Noel is gay and incestuous... the day you listen to Oasis fans outside the United States and England you will learn that Noel is far from being a gay man (and incestuous? Girl please!)

Noel cheated on Meg and Sara several times with female fans from different parts of the world. I'm Argentine, and you have no idea, but Noel was with women every time he came on tour here! All Argentine fans know! All Latin fans know! All Asian fans know! All European (not UK) fans know! Your theories are a waste of time, the rest of the world knows the truth!

Well, you should note that i said bisexual. Which of course means someone who is attracted to BOTH men and women. I'm not saying he doesn't sleep with women at all . But i have to tell you, I've heard only the vaguest rumors of what you suggest.

We know about Melissa Lim. Paolo Hewitt claimed that Noel was involved with groupies before Meg. We have a screenshot of someone claiming to have read a groupie narrative about Noel years ago on a website that's now defunct. We have, more recently, insinuations from a girl on the internet who those who have interacted with directly feel is not reliable. I did hear verbal rumors, fifth hand or more, that Noel has a favorite woman in Japan or Korea, who is kinda his tour wife whenever he's there.

It just seems to me that if this was such a common thing that everyone knows, there would be more...evidence?

If there is, I'd love to hear it. Girls who slept with Noel, or someone you know did, or people who have incriminating photos, hit me up! I'm fascinated.

Hello! If you don’t mind I’d have a question regarding love when you’re older, bc for now I think obsessive love is linked to physical appearance ? Well not entirely but it is what I imagine turns passion into obsession, so I don’t imagine this for Liam and Noel in their 50s although they’re both good looking obviously. Am I wrong to imagine it like this ??

Yes, I think you are mistaken.

For one thing, attraction is only loosely connected to appearance in the first place. Yes, most of us want to be involved with people we find attractive. But what we find attractive varies a lot! Haven't you ever known a friend who is totally in love with someone that you think is not cute, and maybe even repellent?? Or haven't you had strong feelings for someone you didn't think was attractive at first?

And I think obsession, in particular, is more about how the person's issues dovetail with, and activate, your issues, more than about physical attractiveness. I've known many people who stay with a toxic lover for years, who they are not physically attracted to at all! Their issues just click together like Legos, and they can't let go.

Two, what we find attractive changes as we age. You, a young person in your teens or 20s, might find things about a 60 year old body repellent. Those things probably don't bother a lover who is similar to them in age. Older people see the things, and we LiKE them. Gray hair, more body hair, expression lines, lower voices, slower talking, thicker hands, transparent skin, prominent veins--all these things can be very sexy to the older beholder.

Third, passion does not change as we get older. Falling in love is exactly the same!! Although we may get wiser and more cautious, the intensity of falling in love doesn't change at all. In some cases, it might even get stronger. The old man who is made a fool by love is a common literary trope for a reason.

Love of sex doesn't change as we age either. Again, it may get even stronger. I had a friend in her mid 70s who was in a toxic, obsessive relationship with a man for several years, because his toxic issues matched hers, as above, but more importantly, because the sex was so good. He was close to 80, had had prostate cancer, and was no longer able to get erections at all! But he wanted to please her, and he DID. She was so addicted to him!

Last of all, your passionate love for a particular person doesn't change as you get older, not at all. If you were crazy in love with someone once, the chances are good that you could fall crazy in love with them twenty years later.

So, while we can definitely hope that Noel and Liam have learned how to regulate themselves better and keep their goals in mind when having a conflict, I really don't think that we can expect that their passion problem will have resolved purely because they are 15 years older now.

Fifteen years isn't even that long, and the changes we go through between 45 and 60 is not that big, really.

I'm imagining how Sally feels right now—Oasis making a comeback and bigger than ever just a few months after she started dating Noel. Must be exciting but scary as well.

I believe they are no longer together. He described himself as single recently, I think in a podcast or possibly at a gig. @lily-bluey always has the latest info on Noel's romantic situation, she will remember! But maybe this is why? Maybe she knew that an oasis reunion was coming and did not want the publicity.

I recently came across a clip from Matt's podcast where Noel was talking very directly about how out of his two sons, Sonny was his favorite. Glancing over the fact that this feels a little off-putting to say as a a parent, I'm wondering if Noel has ever talked about why he liked Sonny more? I really didn't wish to speculate too much on this, but the first thing that I was reminded of was the 'Donovan felt more like Liam's son' jokes based on Donovan's baby pic looks and vibes. It's also a strange coincidence that Donovan's birthday is only off from Liam's by one day. Even though I'm not a total astrology believer, I'm curious that are there likely more similarities in their personalities that made Noel less favorable towards Donovan?

Also hopefully Noel has changed his mind on this (having an explicit favorite among his kids), or he was just joking (but then though, why did you do this Noel ughhh)

As I recall he said this when Donovan was 14ish and Sonny was like 11-12. During that time I heard him complain about Donovan being absorbed in his phone all the time, filling the house with his armpit stinky teenage friends, and his bratty superior attitude. And he specifically mentioned Donovan being without his phone for a few days and that "it was like i had my baby boy back." So it seems to me like he was struggling Donovan's early teenage rebellious back-talking years, while Sonny was still in his late childhood, glad to spend time with dad kind of phase. As a parent of teenagers i experienced very similar things! Even though it's not polite to say so. Especially on global radio!!

What are your 2024 Gallagher predictions

Noel and Liam go public about being back on good terms in October. But the surprise twist is that they've actually been in touch (occasional texts, funny memes, checking on Peggy) since early in the pandemic.

In an interview several weeks later Noel obliquely confirms that this fueled the conflict between him and Sara. He insists that they *didn't* break up over Liam, it was definitely going to happen anyway, but explains with a shrug that you've got to be able to keep tabs on your old mam when there's a pandemic on.

Liam, for his part, insists that no one has apologized and they definitely did not resolve their difficulties to please their mam, but admits that they did surprise her for her 80th by visiting her with all three boys together.

Paul still hates Noel and they don't really speak, but no one cares. Anais secretly (obviously) adores Liam but sincerely believes she keeps it top secret. Meg begins drinking herself to death because she hasn't gotten back together with Noel as part of the family reunion.

Noel and Debbie get along, warily, mostly by keeping their distance like two cats, and he admits that she's kinda cute only under extreme duress from Matt, but that doesn't happen until January. Sara begins dating a 70 year old tech magnate in April. No one cares about that either.

Donovan gets the first entry on his rap sheet in November. Sonny's band drops a single and to everyone's astonishment it's actually pretty good. Peggy gives some sassy quotes to the Daily Mail and allows herself to be papped with the grandkids over Christmas.

Everyone insists that there will be no new Oasis music except Peggy, who tells the Daily Mail, "Well you know. I think they'd each like to, but neither wants to be the first to say. You know how boys are."

Hello jeevey, I'm sorry to bother you! I was wondering if you would finish the Broken Arrow River, I'm not pushing you to update it so please don't feel any pressure, I just really love it so I'm curious to see how it ends, I've probably read your completed chapters over and over again five or six times and have often imagined how it'll end up. I'm not very good at English so I hope my comments won't confuse you! Thank you for writing this excellent work,！

Yes! It will definitely be finished. I already know almost everything that will happen, I just need to do the writing it out part. Xoxoxox
