The tough life of John Lennon can relate and comparable to mine which I inspired a lot from him.

- I see too much on focusing "Market value" where the real "artist" are never be found because of less scouting for "working-hard talent" - Improving by do more instead of shortcuts (especially malaysian) where they always see people that can sing but once they don't want to invest on upgrading the quality of people that can do more, they leave them (singer, artist etc) rotten
