If you're famous and feeling suicidal you can stop others doing it by sharing how you managed to get through.
Someone said to me once that
Suicidal thoughts are a liar.
And that idea was helpful to them.
With suicide there's the Werther effect where reporting it, especially in well known people, can lead to others doing it.
My ignorance was from responsible reporting at the time.
The Papageno effect is that media reporting well known folk recovering from crisis helps others.
Just watched Bel on iplayer and ooft. I had not realised she died by suicide.
The film tells her story with love by those that knew her and could see her extraordinary talent.
Her debut album is finally finished and is up for the @sayaward.

John Lennon's birthday!
My favourite Beatles song sometimes is Rain which was a B side so it's a bit obscure. @brucerisk told me John wrote it while visiting relatives in Edinburgh. But I can't remember the details. Bruce?

Some good news.
Also reminded that it's John Lennon's birthday.

X is pretty dead for getting posts seen these days. The SAY Award should be a big deal but is getting no engagement on here or FB at all. A bit better on Insta but with 400 albums submitted and their fans, would expect more support from the artists and the 100 nominators.
