When fame comes quick, young adults may not know how to allocate their time and they can reach a dilemma. That was a statement made by an early pop singer. Another famous person, Anne Murray said about the same thing when talking about how young people reach stardom fast. She was twenty-five when she got her lucky break and he was much younger. They also talked about how long they will continue in show business and why they continue. Both of them feel the need to still be active in life even though it has been years since they both got platinum records for the work they have done. Paul specifically talked about his mortality. Here are some other details on their careers.
Anne Murray mentioned that today a person does not even have to have a voice to "sing". In fact with rap music that is much the case. Both have compiled recordings with other artists they have worked with. Both are still very active people with a burning desire to continue what they do best, bringing entertainment to the public.
He talked about his mortality and not wanting to be there when the angel of death appears. One thing I noticed was his zest for life as he quipped about having been fortunate to get out of thee then small town Ottawa to make it big with seasoned performers like Frank Sinatra who he wrote songs for. That zest probably explains why he hasn't entered a frightful faze about having to go sometime. Maybe it was his candidness, which we can look up to: "we all have to go sometime" he added. But in the meantime he keeps working and performing and his reason is that if you stand still people throw dirt at you.
Anne on the other hand referred to her notoriety largely coming from her golfing average. That is more people have given her acclaim for her golfing than for all the musical hits she has ever put together. There might be irony in the last statement but sometimes fame does not come the way we expect it to.
