I think that its natural that as we grow, we begin to find things that feel more 'real' than an idol and fan relationship. That's why we begin to grow apart from the groups and idols we were once obsessed with. Our lives go on and so do the idols' and that's why when we look back at the things we loved as adolescents, we can clearly see how much we have grown as well as the impact that these singers had on our lives. It's almost like new jeans represented the exact fate we will all face in the future.
