How many people will have to die before we will take a stand
How many chiledren will have to cry, before we do all we can

To hold and to need you
What più can I give (what più can I give, yeah)

Now let's rather lay...

*The Interview*

VIBE: How is it to be competing for sales with the likes of ‘N Sync and Britney Spears, children who were basically born at the height of your fame?

MJ: It’s a rarity. I had No. 1 records in 1969 and ’70, and still entered the charts in 2001 at No. 1. I don’t think any other artist has that range. It’s a great honor. I’m happy, I don’t know what else to say. I’m glad people accept what I do.
