Musicians that weren't cut out for fame.

This is probably the best one I can think of and If anyone hasn't seen this I strongly reccomend watching it.

Remeraber the Turtles?

I've forgotten how to erabed the videos. If a mod happens to pop by this post and fancies just popping into it and fixing it for me I'd be much obliged.
 
This guy.

And this guy.

Pretty obvious choice coming from me, so I'll just post a picture of him;

^Just didn't have the temperament to cope with being a pop star. Fortunately he'd respond to that in a positive way and make some of the most simultaneously awesome and challenging music I've heard because of it.
 
ok Kurt is one of a quite a few lefties.

Left handed gutiarist are funny bunch, some play right hand guitars as if they're right handed, some play left handed but with right-handed tuning, the strings are inverted like Dick Dale, and most of them play left-handed guitars with left-handed tuning.
 
No problem. To erabed youtube videos all you do is take the little string of random characters that comes after the equals sign in the url and wrap that in [youtube] tags. If you click edit or quote on your previous post you'll be able to see what I'm talking about.
 
I think Kurt and Hendrix are the most talked about ones for being left handed. Especially Hendrix 'cause he played a right handed guitar, left handed. (I think, not into Hendrix so not too sure, sure someone on here would be the first to correct me though :D) I never knew Brian Jones and Morrison were left handed..
 
Gary Moore is another famous leftie guitarist.

Kate Bush wasn't cut out for fame. She's said it was never a part of why she wanted to do music and it seems she's tried hard to live a sort of normal non-celebrity life (as far as I know). No exciting breakdowns in public that I'm aware of, though!
 
That'd be Sir Scott Walker (I talk about him quite a bit here, so I thought I'd try and avoid bringing up him or his music for a while).

Started out with songs like this;

And went on to do stuff like this;
