I think for musicians especially the effects of talent aren't possible to ignore. I've seen musicians study/play for 20 years and be good but not special, while others in the same time managed to build an international career. It's something you can clearly hear and see when they play too, not just a matter of how famous they are. It might be sad for someone but I'm convinced that not everyone has the right talent to be a musician or to play a certain instrument. Some people are geniuses, others are mediocre at best. Everyone has his strengths and talents and it's only normal that we excel at very different things.
