Good idea, I hadn't thought of that.
I'm hard pressed to come up with an example of this at this moment, but there occasionally have been people who impersonated other singers, for example, and I've heard people say that this impersonator "out did" the original, famous one. Why didn't he or she make it big themselves? Maybe a lack of creativity or originality caused by timidness. The ones that did make it big kept on going in spite of disapproval (think: Elvis Presley).
I know that we have gone

This is my last post on the matter.
