Weil Mr. Jackson nun mal gerade ziemlich dominant ist : Auf der Seite backstreets.com steht ein älterer Interviewausschnitt vom Boss zu Michael Jackson. Sehr aussagekräftig, der Boss hats zum Glück geschnallt, mit dem Ruhm umzugehen und seine Aussagen zum Verhältnis zu den Fans sagt alles : `The type of fame that Elvis had, and that I think Michael Jackson has, the pressure of it, and the isolation that it seems to require, has gotta be really painful. I wasn’t gonna let that happen to me. I wasn’t gonna get to a place where I said, ‚I can’t go in here. I can’t go to this bar. I can’t go outside.’… I believe that the life of a rock ’n‘ roll band will last as long as you look down into the audience and can see yourself, and your audience looks up at you and can see themselves—and as long as those reflections are human, realistic ones. The biggest gift that your fans can give you is just treatin‘ you like a human being, because anything else dehumanizes you. And that’s one of the things that has shortened the life spans, both physically and creatively, of some of the best rock ’n‘ roll musicians—that cruel isolation. If the price of fame is that you have to be isolated from the people you write for, then that’s too fuckin‘ high a price to pay`
