FWIW: I've thought about this a lot over weepy vodka shots in honor of Joey Ramone, Jay (Reatard) Lindsey, Lux Interior, Ray Charles, Dave Brockie, James Brown, Roy Orbison, etc etc etc...

It doesn't matter whether you burn out or fade away: What DOES matter is that your work has IMPACT. Meaning, it not only gives people something to think about, feel about, but it also inspires a continuation of the production of NEW cultural products (music, literature, style, ideas, knowledge) by subsequent generations.

In a way, having children is the fundamental expression of this, but so is teaching and creating something that others can learn from and that can grow on its own down the road.

When Justin Beiber dies, MAYBE his mother will cry.
