Sometimes that is what art does to people, but I agree, it isn't based on
the inner experience of those who experience someones art. it is all art
cause it is all expression.

Are you sure about this, i mean, just as clueless some of these people might
be about the reason for doing music, some of them actually do it cause they
like music. Some of them got recognized for their desire to sing, I doubt
they actually "looked" at someone and said, "who cares if they can't sing,
we will make them a star". There had to have been something that triggered
them to desire their ability, whether we think it is good or bad.
I mean, yeah they are doing it for the wrong reasons, but who wouldn't love
to get paid to sit in their home and all day do what they love to do most.
I wouldn't have to be working my job, rather, spend all my time writting new
music all day, and then get paid for it. Doesn't sound like a bad idea to
me.

sad to say, but some people i know are dillusional enough to believe that
there is a message that speaks to them. maybe not to you specifically, or
to me for that matter, but i know people who say it actually speaks to them
in ways i do not understand.

this is true. but how do you pay for the time invested in it? someone had
to write the stuff, good or bad!
