Michael Jackson又得冠軍

  

富比士雜誌公布年度已故藝人收入排行榜，Michael Jackson以去年一億1500萬美元收入，輕易地超過貓王Elvis Presley的五千五百萬奪得冠軍，漫畫『花生』的作者Charles Schultz以四千萬美元得到第三名，接著是雷鬼音樂歌手Bob Marley的二千一百萬，影后 Elizabeth Taylor則有二千萬，其他在排行榜前十五名的知名藝人還有前批頭合唱團的John Lennon，豔星 Marilyn Monroe，性格男演員James Dean與電視節目主持人Joan Rivers。

Michael Jackson以專輯唱片Thriller當中的多首暢銷單曲，搭配主打歌Thriller的MV轉型成功，成為流行歌壇巨星，不過老歌迷特別懷念他童年的可愛模樣，像1972年的冠軍曲，電影「金鼠王」的插曲Ben，就是一首百聽不厭的好歌。

Ben

Michael Jackson

Ben, the two of us need look no more

We both found what we were looking for

With a friend to call my own

I'll never be alone

And you, my friend will see

You've got a friend in me

(You've got a friend in me)

Ben, you're always running here and there

(Here and there)

You feel you're not wanted anywhere (anywhere)

If you ever look behind

And don't like what you find

There's something you should know

You've got a place to go

(You've got a place to go)

I used to say "I" and "me"

Now it's "us", now it's "we"

(I used to say "I" and "me"

Now it's "us", now it's "we")

Ben, most people would turn you away

(Turn you away)

I don't listen to a word they say

(A word they say)

They don't see you as I do

I wish they would try to

I'm sure they'd think again

If they had a friend like Ben

(A friend)

Like Ben

(Like Ben)

Like Ben
