Here’s part 1 of Stephen Gibb singing To Love Somebody, last weekend with Soto/Bieler. It was so incredibly moving. No he doesn’t sound like Barry, but honestly, it was raw and emotional. I loved every second of it. I was crying and a mess. Sorry for the terrible video skills.

To Love Somebody (Song)

Let me take this opportunity to say the You Can Take Me There series- "To Love Somebody" in particular is so good, and completely changed the way I interact with DLBIA and WTSMG as a whole. I'd love to know more about that fic!
9, 11, 14, 15 pls 😊
9. Are there any alternate versions of this fic? No. This is it. Pretty much exactly how I planned it too.
11. What do I like best about this fic?
I love how it's a look at the Gallaghers but they don't make the world go round for Melissa. It's important to remember when writing an outside point of view that that character has their own thoughts, hopes, dreams, plans. Kinda like Nick in The Great Gatsby. He's looking at Gatsby but who he is still colours everything.
14. Is there anything I wanted people to learn from this fic?
Hmm. Maybe more on the background of Talk Tonight? A possible scenario that would explain the Whiskey debacle. And maybe that other people were involved in Oasis rise to fame.
15. What did I learn from writing the fic?
Lots of stuff about Oasis! Some stuff about Melissa Lim. Some details about San Francisco. And how to write a believable reaction to a confession of incest. Hopefully.
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it!!! ♡ It's so flattering to hear I changed how you view those albums! Wow
