    Whenever I see Leif nowadays, I always feel this sadness because he reminds me of all the sweet memories when I was young. At the same time, all the negative/regretful things that happened to him in the past. Oh, he was such a handsome/beautiful face and a sexy being from head to toe. He visited our country twice and even got surprised by the tiny size of the studio. He didn't need to try so hard to be fabulous and famous because he WAS fabulous and famous.🌺

      I feel really happy to see Leif in a right way. The most important for his health and he can continue with a good life, plenty of music and health is he realize his mistakes. It is the first step that he must do, every day.
      Thanks, Leif, for get back with us : your fans.
      I have never forgotten, neither good times nor bad times.
      Leif, you are amazing. You know.

    Yes. I sure would. Life has ups and downs. Leif had great ups, more than nearly all of us. We've all got regrets, but look back to the good times. Life is short. Not many of us are remembered by anyone except our close ones.

    Hindsight is always 20-20. Everybody would do their childhood over again if they had the mind of the adult they are now. The point is would you live it exactly the way you were then knowing now you’d end up a broke 60 living on $1000 a month.

    Woops I've accidentally sibscribed. Once you start watching Leify Gs vids you cannot stop at one. So eye candy in his prime, but way too cool on the inside to be raped like he was by his management. Leif dude, if you chased dragons at 15yrs old you would have created a new unique style that you would still be rockin now. My heart goes out to you for that fukd & rude treatment of management. I would hunt them down and play some God speed on as many amps as you can get, like in their nursing home

    I like his music, but Leif is an example that having a lot at a young age is actually a curse, not a blessing.
    As Spiderman said, "With great power comes great responsibility."
    This is true not just with money but ANY source of power.
    Many of today's women use their beauty (another source of power) in very destructive ways that they don't see until they reach a certain age when they lose all that beauty.
    Then they end up alone and bitter.

    Mr Garrett was very different from these idols, from a young age he knew how to light up a screen , to earn a
    Living he could have done many things, he chose to chase an outdated Rock and roll dream that he was unsuited for. The addiction and mediocrity of his rock and roll dream got him where he is. Squandered gifts.before the addictions Mr Garrett excelled at everything he did, as an adult it seems he has chosen to excellent at addiction Nd his fascination with the under belly of LA rock and roll a real waste to his fans

If ur old enough to have known about him in his prime then ur definitely old enough to understand what he went through affected his looks dramatically.
