He just got his Lady Godiva monies - although it only sold half as many as Forever Yours, he's made about the same amount of money since he gave half his Forever Yours cash to charity.

It's a shame that nowadays its all about the money and not the music. Creativity in music is suffering because of it.

Besides, it's also been proved time and time again that big rewards fuel creativity. When the writers are hungry for it they're at the top of their game, The Beatles, Elton John, Billy Joel, Burt Bacharach, Sting... there's a huge list of writers who's creativity dwindled once they'd made it.

Fi you are a PROFESSIONAL MUSICIAL it has always been about the money to some extent, otherwise you're NOT a professional musician.
