The TV One network has a series called Unsung. This gives a glimpse into the life of music artists, many with tragic endings, that reveal lots of music trivia. VH1 also has a show that highlights successful artists called Behind the Music. Both of these shows give a really good glimpse at how some of the most popular songs came into existence.

Artists are quite candid and they are really ready to open up on certain songs. People get to find out what songs were written about a girl. They can also find out how long it took to pen certain songs. People that like music trivia will enjoy those behind the music type shows. They take you on an incredible musical experience.

Then there are the honest ‘fans’ that just want to take their pictures as keep-sakes or mementos of their meeting, or a concert they attended. Some concert buildings have started the practice of not allowing cameras to be present. Now, with telephone picture taking, it has become a major issue of ‘embarrassing’ moments caught on cameras.

How do the artists deal with the candid photos? Well, first of all they do not need to place themselves in questionable situations. Does this mean they can’t live freely indoors and outdoors? An artist that decides to be in a place or wear something questionable, or be with someone in today’s mega technological society may as well realize that in public, they are ‘targets.’ So, say ‘Cheese’ and have your picture taken!
