actually think his stuttering is kind of endearing. Also because his personally is so sweet. He sounds so wise, that you forget about him stuttering and just listen to what he says.
Scatman John was not only able to learn to speak his mind using the piano, but he was also able to turn a stutter into a work of art. I respect this man hugely, and only wish he could've stuck around for a while longer. I would've loved to see him live.
@drenlord Actually, the Illuminati has become more well-known as of late because of urban legends surrounding popular rappers - People say that a lot of Kanye West's songs are about the Illuminati, and I'm pretty sure that he's not the only rapper that has those rumors around him.
@Momon143 It's sad that in this day and age, people are believing in that conspiracy theory bullshit. Circles and triangles are BASIC GEOMETRIC SHAPES, they are mathematical constants that appear throughout nature. The worst thing about this is that it betrays a miserably stunted view of the world. In stead of the unimaginable complexity and beauty of the cosmos, they imagine a few crusty old white men sitting around a table, controlling your thoughts with middle school level geometry.
I had (very mild though) stuttering as a kid. I know exactly what he means. While it's but almost disappeared he was a great talent. RIP. Why do all the good people leave this stage of life early while the mediocore hacks thrive and prosper....
ive been a HUGE fan of Scatman since i was 8, im 15 now and he is one of my biggest inspiration, i love him and his morals and i know in my heart he is in a better place, scatman's world!
@drenlord I dont know it :) I know of illuminati cuz some friend of mine told me about them, and showed me a video about Eminem and Illuminati... xD but as I said earlier, I dont belive in that :P
@TheBladeEdge It's a sobriety pendant, he wore it because he won his battle against alcohol abuse. He was always open about his past problems (mentioned in this interview) which led him to create scatman.
@TheBladeEdge The Illuminati doesn't exist. Every artist from Scatman John to Eminem To Lady Gaga have been rumored to be in it. The truth is, its about as real as The Da Vinci Code. Real in our minds, Not in real life.
@bdc1439 LOL so much power exists in the world and so much men have it. Do you really think they're that stupid NOT to make a plan to dominate the rest of us? You underestimate your own rulers, expecting everything to be just as dandy as your mom and dad told ya when you were 5. Grow up.
@Bookster343 Enlighten yourself. So many people posted information about them that not knowing is ridiculous, and summarizing it into 500 letters is impossible because it would belittle the significance of it.
@TheBladeEdge Ask 10 people, and you'll get 10 different answers as to what the Illuminati is, so an admission of ignorance on my part as to what YOU think this shadow organization actually constitutes isn't ridiculous.
I have never heard or read a conclusive argument that logically supports it. All of what I've seen has been circumstantial. Perhaps I haven't read enough into it, which is why I'm asking you, apparently a devout believer in the Illuminati, to cite your sources.
@Bookster343 don't you know it? They control us! The evidence is all around us in the symbols they leave. Circles, squares, and triangles. They are the symbols of the masters!
@Bookster343 I sincerely hope it was obvious that it was sarcasm. But I've seen some remarkably stupid people, so I know where you're coming from. Sorry to make it unclear.
@TheReaverOfDarkness It wouldn't be unclear at all if we were communicating verbally, most likely. Sarcastic connotations aren't as easily conveyed through text, and due to the general stupidity of the vast majority of YouTube users, I have to check, haha. The equation of "circles, squares, and triangles=Illuminati" would easily serve as a seemingly viable conspiracy theory to a large number of Alex Jones lemmings.
Just lol, guys, just lol. xD My first 2 comments were just a joke, but some morons got very serious topics up, so i answered as shortly as I could, to make them fuck off faster. :-/
P.S. Although its obvious secret orders exist, they are most likely not very important and just a big rattle to get our attention from something else. Nothing is as plain as you morons see it. And the "devout believer" part made me rofl.
@TheBladeEdge So let me get this straight... You acknowledge that what you said was completely fucking retarded, and that you specifically meant to appear as a fucking retarded person, and now you're wondering why people talked to you as though you were, in fact, completely fucking retarded?
3:31 - 3:48 Words coming from a man who figured out the meaning of life. We are talking about a star people. A star spoke up those words. A star that uplifted me during my teenage life
Thank you very much, I feel very lucky to see this interview because Scatman means everything for me. John Paul Larkin you have help me so much. Thank you and now I know i'm part of the people in Scatland.
