re: #345 capitalist piglet

Wow. I’m asking why it has “merit to deserve success” (and I disagree with the premise that something deserves success just because it is successful), and at this point, I regret that I did.

If an auto mechanic thinks a car is a piece of junk, I don’t get angry with him for giving me his honest opinion, and I don’t demand that he revise it.

My deepest apologies to all fans of Bruce Springsteen. Yikes. Sorry I blew up. LOL

Mr. piglet! Asking why a successful artistic impression deserves its success is kind of silly.

You say you’re a musician. If someone likes your music does that mean it’s good? If that were true, someone disliking your music would automatically mean it is bad. Do you want to accept that test with a piece of music you’ve spent your time crafting until you believe it is ready for publication?

Because someone WILL dislike it. Everything every artist ever creates. Someone WILL dislike it.

Springsteen deserves his fame, even and despite the fact that other deserving artists did not match his achievement.
