http://tinyurl.com/yj4b83q Prince talks Michael Jackson, pays tribute to Jackson 5: 'It is always sad to lose someone you love' Performer, and singer extraordinaire, Prince, in a new interview breaks his silence about the death of his peer, Michael Jackson. Prince speaks specifically of concerts, what Michael Jackson showed him as an artist, and his thoughts on MJ's untimely death. 王子在訪談中 談到了他對MJ的過世 When asked about his years of cultivating the art of surprise concerts in exceptional locations, Prince revealed, "I now prefer this format above the traditional tour, it tempts me more. I like being the first and the last to do something. When I played in London in 2007, the O 2 Arena, I asked the producers what had been the record number of shows played consecutely in their venue. They said six. I said that I wanted to do twenty-one. During two weeks they refused me, nobody had ever played for so long. All concerts were nevertheless sold out. Since then, Michael Jackson showed me that I should go farther (Michael Jackson had planned to fifty concerts in this venue for what should be his big comeback)." 王子說 他比較喜歡現在驚喜的演唱會模式 更甚於傳統的巡迴演出 更能激發他 他喜歡做第一個 也是最後一個 當他07年在O2表演時 他說 我問演唱會製作人 最長的紀錄是幾場 他們說六場 我就說我要表演21場 起初兩個禮拜 他們拒絕我 沒人在同個場地表演這麼久 票會賣不出去 但MJ顯然告訴我 我應該表演更久 When asked if his performance of the Jackson 5 Shake Your Body (Down To The Ground) at his concert at the Grand Palais was a tribute, he replied, "My singer Elisa has the same timbre as Michael when he was young. And a good song is a good song." The mood shifted when Prince was asked about his feelings on the death of Michael Jackson, "(Prince, obviously reluctant, does not want to dwell on the subject.) It is always sad to lose someone you loved." 他在不久前在演唱會中表演了J5的Shake Your Body做為致敬 當被問到這個 他說 我的歌手Elisa和MJ年輕時有相類似的聲音 而且好歌就是好歌 當談到他對MJ去世的感想時 氣氛改變了 王子顯然不想談論這個話題 他只說 當你失去你所愛的人時永遠是很難過的 王子的致敬:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzNRXzWl7Jg -- In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. In a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe. ~~~~By Michael Jackson --
