    As a diehard SP fan, it's hearing him tell these stories (even though he tells a thousand - mostly metaphorical - tales in his songs) that make you go "Oh it all makes sense now. I understand why he is SO BROKEN". No other band has brought so many tears to my eyes as SP.

    Unfortunately this happens more often than people think. It also is true with your friends. People don't expect you to succeed. They think that success is reserved for people from inside the TV. Even if they try to be supportive, they don't really think that someone they know could actually become IT. I understand this mentality as this kind of success is extremely rare but as an artist that is trying to become IT, you need to be your own biggest fan. Don't wait for someone to believe in you. You will get disappointed.
