Really? THESE artists hate their OWN songs? Do we hate this Billy Joel song as much as Billy does?
What Led Zeppelin song does Robert Plant hate?
John Lennon hates a Beatles song? Which one?
Yes, it’s true. While WE can’t get enough of our favorite songs, the artists that created them have had enough.
Is it something called perfectionism?
Perfectionism
According to xientce.medium.com: Perfectionism can make us obsess over individual details in work, that make-up 1% of the design/project. It makes the flaws transparent, and the strengths opaque. We never see the ‘good’ parts. Most of the time we’d rather look at other people’s work.
Imposter Syndrome
Is that really a thing? According to Wikipedia, it is:
Impostor syndrome, also known as impostor phenomenon or impostorism, is a psychological occurrence in which people doubt their skills, talents, or accomplishments and have a persistent internalized fear of being exposed as frauds. Despite external evidence of their competence, those experiencing this phenomenon do not believe they deserve their success or luck. They may incorrectly attribute it to the Matthew effect or the Dunning–Kruger effect, or they may think that they are deceiving others because they feel as if they are not as intelligent as they outwardly portray themselves to be. Impostor syndrome can stem from and result in strained personal relationships and can hinder individuals from achieving their full potential in their fields of interest.
Sure, we all have doubts from time to time. The famous Jackie Gleason was known for his, imposter syndrome. At the beginning of each show, he’d say to his staff, let’s go and fool ’em.’
Lets’ see what Billy Joel song, Billy himself isn’t fond of!
