Who loves John Paul Larkin?

Post Posted: Post subject: Who loves John Paul Larkin?

John Paul Larkin, beter known as Scatman John, who doesnt love this guy for his music, his persistance but most importantly his ideas.

Unfortunatly he died in 1999 due to cancer but his ideas live on, and that is all that matters.

A man that beat a severe stutter to make some of the best and most moving music, very appearent are his ideas in his song Scatman's World.

Where he preaches against racism because its a mans soul that counts, and to fight polution if we want to make this world a beter place. To not listen to the lies told wich i think is cryptic for just being yourself and not accept another mans truth as your own. Since we're all free to believe what we want. He says live is to beautigull to waste, and on his death bed he said: "whatever God wants is fine by me... I've had the very best life. I have tasted beauty."

Scatman John, i salute you for your believes and music that brought a smile to many. If only more shared your vision then perhaps the world would be a beter place, even if only just a little ;)
Its nice to be important, but its more important to be nice.

Just so this doesn't gets unreplied:

TH, I think you belong to that minority of people who are smart and stuff, but don't get listened to because you are a minority XD

And no, no idea who that guy is XD But I'm glad he died without regrets.

I know of Scatman John... only though from the song "Scatman." The song was passed through my circle of friends and discussed and used more as a comical song than the real meaning behind it. I'd found out he was dead about a year ago... happened to hear it and look him up out of dumb curiosity.
"Oh, if you see him coming get away if you can. Just keep on running, run as fast you can. He's a dangerous, dangerous man. And he's out tonight. And he's watching you. And he knows your house. Ki ki ki ma ma ma. No, don't turn out the light. Yeah causes hes back. He's the man behind the mask. And he's out of control." -Alice Cooper
