Shaun Cassidy: More than Meets the Eye

FOR A teenage idol, Shaun Cassidy is thinking deep thoughts these days. Some of them have to do with an identity crisis. Not his: Contrary to popular belief, Shaun is well aware of who he is and what he's doing. No, it's his audience that has the identity crisis. "People think," he says, "that the records I make are deliberately aimed at whatever the mentality of a twelve-year-old is. But that's not true. My music progresses with each new record, and I try to bring my audience along with me. My fans, those who pay attention, are much more on top of it than people will give them credit for."
