Kudos to Rick! He comes across as a very sensitive and genuine person who has evolved significantly while maturing from his lessons in life. GOD Bless you Rick!

[@janetelainedeloach6501]

I have this book. It is sad, detailed and a whirlwind tour of his life...I admire him more knowing He was really suffering from depression but channeling in his songs and music....He is an amazing singer and courageous human being.....His music Just keeps getting Better....

[@azlacross0317]

I watched him perform with Cory Hart when I was 15, I fell in love with him then, have loved him ever since. I have seen him several more times in concert and he always puts on an excellent show, remains beautiful and I will always love him.

[@jamespacaldo335]

Rick Springfield my favorite solo artist during my younger years at mid 80s.

[@jacquelinehunter7483]

I love Rick's honesty. In and about everything. I understand an awful lot about what he goes through and it's nice to hear, that other people understand too. Love you, Rick!! Always have, Always will!!❤❤❤❤❤⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘

[@gooddirtdiva]

Thanks for being so authentic...you have so much to offer young people in this world...your story is truly inspirational and moving...Blessings to you and yours Rick!

[@swangonzalez4797]

A true ICON. Read the book. That story about leaving his dog behind is one of the saddest stories anyone can ever read about.

[@Teri11215]

Great book, I seen him in a concert at Radio City Music Hall, and I never even thought he was anywhere near depressed. He's right, you always think that being a celebrity your above it all. We're all human, and as he wrote in his song, "We all need the Human Touch. Rock on Rick and doubt yourself.

[@stacyecker7530]

If you could only see yourself the way the world sees you would never be depressed again I promise. Hard to hold was a great movie. You are an excellent actor btw. The world loves your TRUE passion in everything you do. ❤

[@lejjamie]

The book, like the music of the man, is well written, thoughtful and excellent. Rick is quite the writer! A fascinating read.

[@precisionb]

You know Rick and I have something in common. We're both depressed musicians, and we look great at 62!

[@Nemie125]

Ah, my friends and I loved Rick Springfield and he still looks and sounds great. Genuinely nice guy too. :)

Always been a huge Rick Springfield fan!:)😍he is a true inspiration ✨ I would love to read that book 🤓 thanks for the great video✌️💖🤩

[@DeanneMaven]

This man makes me cry for him.And today I'm full of tears from compliments out the butt.

[@peebo55]

I can't wait for this book to come out (and the audio version). Just a few more days!

[@doopaboop]

Rick, the book is amazing. I enjoyed so many parts & the Ronnie shirt fitting incident at the store cracked me up... then I started to cry which was so weird . The book really is really deep & touches your heart. I keep thinking about what I read. That's some pretty honest stuff that you let us in on. I've been a fan since 'Speak to the sky' days & I am still enjoying all the concerts when you play in L.A. Looking forward to having the book signed when you are in Costa Mesa! :) Deb

[@Psvinson]

Saw him with Loverboy in Boloxi, Ms in 1984, awesome!!!!!!!!!

[@lejjamie1]

this is a good book - well written, very interesting and makes me want to connect with Rick and his music all the more- he's very honest.

[@TelecasterLPGTop]

After the Zoot disaster we in Australia saw Rick as a bit of a lightweight but I was wrong. His love for his dog touched me especially when he wasn't afraid to discuss it openly.

[@sarahrocha5674]

I Love you!!!! ❤️😘

[@addicted1968]

He is soo Awesome!!!

[@sharonrowland1196]

RICK SPRINGFIELD THE BEST ROCK & ROLLER IN ROCK AND ROLL MUSIC 🥁🎶🎵LOVE YOU RICK SPRINGFIELD ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️👍😃 🖐

[@True-trini]

Damn he looks too good for 63.

[@DENIEL381]

NOW 70 2020

[@paulallenscard8553]

I got to see him perform last year and am still in disbelief that he was 70 years old. He was as energetic as he’s ever been and he sounded phenomenal as well.

[@yogibearfan424]

He got courage, depression is a epidemic

[@precisionb]

Hey Rick, you went for it, got it now use it!

[@saparot1]

A real honest guy.

[@autumnmeadows4079]

I admire you

[@michele33908]

Rick, please get better, I've loved you since General Hospital, and even at 60 you're still hot, love you!

[@mrfunderful]

Great book; I'm just about finished. Refreshing for somebody this famous, to be so honest with his life. He was a real 'asshole' during his life; according to Rick. Treated people like crap for his own selfish needs. As long as people recognize that they are doing 'wrong' and try to change, then there is hope after all. Nice job, Mr. Springthorpe! Mr. D needs to take a flying leap off the Eiffel Tower, man!!

[@veronicadustin1699]

Hi ♥️ 👋 from Maine

[@michaeltrees6872]

Man, I lost my dog at 6 years old, I later found out that a neighbor had come into our yard, took Jager off his chain, took him home and shot him.... because he posed in his yard! I never really got over that and have had dogs my whole life. Rick is a really nice guy, seen him in concert about 20 times, my wife, around 200! Yep, we're fans!

[@JosephineDeT]

Great !

[@bryanholloway7796]

My sister and I go soaked in a washout of your Beat of the Live Drum Tour.I believe It was 84.I did see the video and it was Awsome. One day I would love to see you live with my sister to make up for the show that didn't happen in Jacksonville Fl.

[@Veronica-hp2uh]

[@kimberlyortman7862]

[@JulieColleen]

Hey, Rick, Yes, I still think your cool. always have always will. How's married life.? What do you think of this country's problems today? I think you should write a song about our freedoms. Yeah that would be cool.?
