Yes, just like Star Wars, so Carl Jung and collective unconscious ("The Force") and synchronicities....
I think all my life I wanted to follow the "lightworker" way... I mean I wanted to be a successful musician BUT doing things I really like... and refusing to do certain kinds of music. I refused quite a long time ago a producer who wanted to turn my songs into somewhat... crappy songs. It could have given me money but not happiness.
But hey... after all... I was serving myself. I looked for "My happiness", not for my money though. All I know is wouldn't be happy doing that role. I see that as fake my art or so...
Ok, so that's maybe the dark side of the music business, selling out, not being true to yourself... That's surely no good for me.
But on the other hand... I've showed my songs and some have like them very much, I played live and some have like it very much... but I've had no pleasure from it... or very few, really.
So the greater good, it ain't so satisfying for me. The good feedback is good but I don't know if is worth to pay many money for recording a song or to prepare a performance to only have this little (but very good) feedback.
The thing is that no matter who tells me that really likes my music, it doesn't matter much to me.
So, being true to myself it's not a big deal for me, but selling out is even worse.
But well... for the greater good... wouldn't it be good to "sell out" yourself?... you won't be happy... but maybe some others...
I don't know, the music business is very tricky... all I know is I will be miserable selling out. So I'm gonna try to polarize a little more... maybe is what I need to become a Jedi Master.
