Some social media audios become more well known than the songs themselves. (in current times) They might lead to the most traction they've had in awhile. But go watch that 1997 performance to see Stevie and Lindsey intensely stare at each-other.
A "published" musician is dawned the same beliefs of a published writer vs an unpublished writer. That person running around on a stage is probably quite a profound musician. (or might astonishingly lack musical talent ¯\_(ツ)_/¯) You know that the best guitar player you ever saw was during a performance around a campfire 12 years ago.
(or it's Lindsay Buckingham, example: "Never Going Back Again"
"It ToOk MuLtiPlE gUiTaR pLaYeRs tO rEpLaCe HiM"
Spectacular banjo version:
The irony of never going back again: once you are published it can't be undone.
This concept reminds me of Instagram clips that I've heard of a new Marc Siblia song. It's not even out yet but I'm excited for it anyway. "Why do the best men rest in unmarked graves", "I'll be lucky when I go if no one knows my name". It's kind of a concept that entails that notoriety doesn't equal worth. From a self help standpoint it's definitely a point to take note of. Some things go on behind closed doors or even internally that don't get the praise that other less deserving or more publicly celebrated things do. Also might be a little ironic when you think about it, as those lyrics are sung by a fairly well known musician. That I found out about through social media. But the sentiment stands.
REMEMBER THAT INSTAGRAM IS TYPICALLY A CURATED HIGHLIGHT REEL!
Circumstances are key. So maybe the most talented musician in the world is unfortunately located in the jungles of Peru.
Maybe said person is on Instagram?
