    幸せを与えてくれてありがとう
    When I was in the orphanage, I used to drown my pain by listening to BUSTED songs until the disc was scratched. The moment I heard their songs, I felt so happy.
    They are all important songs that are proof of overcoming hardships.
    Even in difficult situations.
    It's great that they continue to bring hope and joy to their many fans.
    The new BUSTED songs I'm listening to now.
    I am happy to hear their new strength in these songs.
    I will continue to support them.

    Matt and Emma have been very brave for speaking so openly about Matt's addictions. I hope Matt never has a relapse again. I applaud Emma for staying with Matt through his addiction and wish them and their family peace and happiness for the future.

      Definitely. He is not alone with issues reaching out individually to go through the same problems that need support group

    It’s crazy how things go full circle, from being a child gutted that Matt didn’t show up (he was my favourite) to a Safeway CD signing with whispers it was because he was ‘hungover’, to sitting here as a 31 recovering alcoholic myself, I’m really proud to see him do this and also how far, and how life changing recovery has been in both our lives. If anyone is struggling remember right now you think that you’re losing everything by quitting, but what you can’t see is you’ll be gaining everything. Thousands of people are going what you are going through right now so just take a chance how you are and reach out for help, you won’t be judged and you don’t have to go through it alone anymore.

    Amazing Strength and Openness. Ty Matt - it jolted me today on my struggle. My advice to you is keep going - Accept (your) human condition /experience - one life, mind, body etc. Don't chase rainbows on a panacea. Addictive people can't shake it. No silver bullet. Live well within your recovery for life.

    He seems so different compared to how he used to be including when he was sober, it makes me wonder if the tablets that he takes to help battle his addiction zombify him a bit. The same thing happened to Eminem

    I always thought drugs where only a problem if you couldn't afford them 😂 turns out that's total rubbish. Matt is so lucky to have Emma and his family. He'd be done if she left him. Crazy love she has for him.
