I was once a damn good Sax player...and this song puts into words my own personal fears....
I was once the 4th best Sax player in the state of Florida and the 2nd Best in Hillsborough County here in Florida....
I was also in the best HS Jazz Band as well....
I ended up joining the Army after HS to be a musician and I screwed myself by not studying for my Theory classes and placing too much faith in my playing abilities and "flunked" out of the Army and havent played much since..
I guess Im afraid of failure like the guy in this video and being laughed at....
It was true in my case...I had a "pearl in the shell" under my nose and I never realized it...
Such is life...You make mistakes...and I regret that I never did something with my musical ability...
