Steve Brookstein: The Bitter Past Has To Be Forgotten

checked in with fans on his blog at MySpace on Thursday (June 25), alluding to the criticism he received from Simon Cowell in an editorial he wrote for The Daily Mail. “Steve is not a happy bunny,” Cowell wrote of ‘The X Factor’ season one winner. “He never was. He is just a bitter man who the public never warmed to. Steve proved to me that just because you have a winner, it does not always mean that you have a star.”

Brookestein writes:

Who moved my cheese?

I’m crazy – I know how it works but I still make errors. My life has been changing and yet I sit frozen scared to make a change. I wonder how it went wrong and who’s to blame, I try and motivate myself but I can’t find a direction. But then something happens and you run. You run around looking for new cheese in the maze of life that had you sitting around you for so long dazed and confused. I haven’t found it yet but I know it’s out there and I won’t find it sitting around doing nothing!

I’ve added a ‘demand’ widget to profile and I’m working on new album. I am looking for people who want to help me spread the love. The bitter past has to be forgotten in order for me to move forward with what I want to do. I’ll be giving away free songs and promos along the way. Join my mailing list on my website so I can keep you posted.
