i don't understand how some musicians can be classed as "heroes", to be honest. excuse me if i sound "too serious" or anything, but i think it's ridiculous to say that a musician is more of a hero than someone you know who's actually done something. like saved a life, or lived through something terrible, or like, raised you as children.

 

that's just my view, though. like, i know of this girl who went to my friends school who a week or two ago was pulled underwater after a boat she was on with her dad was knocked over. he was safe, but he dived under to try and save her, and in the end they both died. that's heroic. not making a song that you like. it's ridiculous. my grandparents are heroes to me because as a blind couple, they raised three daughters with pretty much no money whatsoever (one of which is my mam). and people could say to me that that isn't the proper criteria for a hero, but they actually did something. they didn't just write some songs and get paid an obscene amount of money to sing them in places around the world, and stay in 5 star hotels and have massive houses and everything they could possibly want.

 

it'd be different if half of you were talking about them being heroes for actually doing something selfless, like their charity work or something. but instead you're just giving them titles and so on just because they can sing or play an instrument.

Winston Churchill, Alfred Lord Tennyson, Voltaire, Ludwig Von Mises.
