Ok. I have a rant haha. This one is about... Of all things, MUSIC. Bog shocker, eh? So, Im sitting down to watch a MUSIC BIOPIC last night. Im a sucker for these things, no matter who it is. I expected to like what I saw, and gain insight to the tragic loss of a young artist. Ok. That failed to happen. She died very young. Definitely tragic. BUT - not only was this a youngin who never wrote, demoed, or shopped her own songs, BUT ALSO never struggled in a smoky bar room, paying to play and rehearse, while working miserable jobs 5 days a week. Instead, what I got was a kid living wealthy in L. A., with an entire family AGREED IN THE BIZ. she had a DECENT (not spectacular) voice. She was HANDED a career basically. Never struggled to buy or pay off a piece of equipment, etc. Yet... Here we are, a decade later, watching her biopic. Meanwhile... Im STILL WANTING to see something on RANDY RHOADS. Yet, Im supposed to cry at her tragic loss? No offense, but I saw NO STRUGGLE in her life. Short, and tragically lost? Yes. Absolutely. Worthy of THIS kind of hoopla? Maybe not until some others get their day in the sun.
