【可愛すぎ】全盛期のマイケルが成功の秘訣を語るインタビュー和訳•英語原文•解説

(I: Is he a part of your family? )

M: His name is Louie I like animals
I think they’re one of God’s most incredible creations 

(I: seems like a nice animal?) 

M: They are the very affectionate and they eat he eats alfalfa. He’s really sweet
Louie is originally from the circus and that he used to give kids rides sixty pounds or under

(I: I understand  you are really good at make them perform any)

M: me no well no I don’t make him perform 
They performed in the circus. I see I don’t know any tricks but he’s really sweet
Originally they’re from South America in the mountains Peru

(I: understand he also has a buddy) 

M: yeah mr. Tibbs mr. Tibbs very close 
I think he’s one of my favorite and because I like their eyes
He’s full grown 
I used to have another llama. He was a boy llama he was snow white and
unfortunately my dogs attacked him. It’s very sad but he’s so beautiful 
His.. her name was Lola
Now I have Louie, Louie is really sweet
right Louie, say hi – say hi to all those magic people

(I: Louie actually seems….)

M: you can tell they’re in the camel family 
they look a lot like camels and alpaca for the same family 
They’re really sweet animals 

(I: I’ve seen he’s being with you and quite a few pictures and cameras a magazine)

M: yes yes I think the fans and the kids know him from the pictures and things
As far as most people think he kicks and he’s gonna hurt  but he doesn’t
He’s really sweet 
right  Louie? say cheese 

(I: smile to the camera, Louie!)

anyway I’ll walk him along a little bit
next I’ll be down

M: It’s nice evening. It’s relaxing

(I: How do you do with your schedule you have?）

M: pardon?

I guess I deal with my schedule
you could gradually get used to it when you go day to day with the routine
I get presented a schedule every morning and I fulfill it 
I found out this morning that I was going to be doing this 
(He’ll get out of her ear?)(sometimes I want to run away)
and I saw something you just get used to doing the part of your work to fulfill your job as entertainer or whatever 
It’s fun to do it in home sometimes for relax like this

(I: What do you feel about your fans?)

M: I think it’s very important because 
as a performer you can perform 
but if you don’t have anything to play back off of, the bounce off of
your performance isn’t as dynamic 
I think the fans would be the energy we play off of them
you can hear me?

I: Where do you get your inspiration and your power from

M: God! it’s hard to explain
It’s something that I guess you just born with 
you feel the music 
It’s like a painter I guess 
You approach the canvas with the pen and the brush and inspired by things around you I can see 
what’s inside of you and you do it and 
and I like creating magic 

♪ dancing on the cloud
♪ soaring up so high
♪ watch me now
♪ watch me now
♪ I’m a peter pan
♪ I can do anything
♪ so high..

(I: What do you mean by “magic”?)

M: when I explain magic I mean wonderment excitement the unexpected escapism
creating something that’s so incredible and illusion 
they put people in a situation  no matter what it may be 
and give them totally the opposite or the unexpected 
so much more than what they thought would happen
I mean this blow their mind that’s
I like create magic excellence 
I love doing that uh it’s nothing like this
I tried to do it and everything I do

(I: where do you get your ideas from)

M: Ideas from the songs like it 
I’ve always said that I don’t write my own song
because I feel I’m just a source 
just a tunnel to through which they come 
I feel somewhere in space they’ve all been written before 
I mean Billie Jean and Beat it and all those songs have been up
there somewhere just came through to me
That’s how I really feel I think 
Even though I did it 
I just can’t always take credit
It’s like any great artist at this, you know Da Vinci I mean
We do it but is some other higher force that’s making it happen

♪ It’s so wonderful day

(I: Do children inspire you a lot?)

M: yes yes how did you know that
that’s very true I am I think kids are very special 
that I get the greatest inspiration for me 
kids and animals and God like that 
I couldn’t even explain on this so magic 
when I’m around them I feel more alive I think than anything 
I feel like I can do anything. They charge me, they give me energy. They really do
and the majority of my success from the inspiration from kids I really do

M: I never, I don’t think I ever done interview outside 
trees and voices watching me
pardon?

(I: Why. do you live isolated and why in such a big house)

M: well the reason why I like the house I live in 
the whole theme of it I want it to be mainly to kids
but when they come here I like to be inspired by their reaction I see them
have fun by their joy 
That’s why I have to go to Disneyland a lot 
I like seeing they have fun
I go there to get my daily dose of inspiration if I can and 
When I come back 
I’m ready ready to take on everything 
It’s very good 
It’s the magic the eyes the faces especially, the character…magic.

you see we’re doing a new album right now 
it’s the Jackson’s album and
I’m writing several songs on it  the latest
What I’m writing you call Buffalo Bill is about Will Cody the cowboy  and how he died and 
I’m really excited about it cause
I really I hate to say that I know it’s gonna be a hit but 
I really strong  I feel strong about it 
Then I’m writing a song about Liberian girl, It’s about a Liberian girl
and I excited about that.
I’m excited about all my projects and I’m living day to day
dream in and wish upon a star and
all that magic stuff

(I: a lot of things going on at the same time)

M: yeah yeah a lot of things going on at the same time
are we making magic here?

Let’s go in the back 
Let’s go in the back where the Tivoli lights on 

M: Ohh man!
What are you guys tell me you’re shooting
I’ll be right down
wait second, okay? hold on

M: my god…It’s dusk 
the moon is out 
most beautiful part of the day 
I can see some of the stars coming out 
very beautiful 
Everything comes to life 
the fireflies are in the trees 
Everything’s becoming a magic
it’s… it is I would say it is my favorite part of the day 
dawn and dusk  it’s a certain magic about it 
It does seems like everything that pray upon the night
starts to you know come out
be at the creatures be at the the birds that return to their nests
I like dawn also some psychologists say that that 
dusk for a lot of creative people 
You reach your alpha state subconsciously 
You become more creative in certain parts of the day 
but for me, there can be any time you know 
I am I just like creating 
There’s no special time but this is really magic to me
because it’s like it’s like a painting
It’s very artistic It’s magic

♪ It’s so wonderful

This is sound of water It’s magic beautiful
sit here and relax
Oh　（タバコを吸う仕草）

(I: When I look at the whole house here, I wonder what kind of film is going on in your head)

M: I think with any type of creation you create what’s inside of you
subconsciously what influences you 
I’m a fantasy fanatic and 
Anything that take you off into another world escapism
That’s what I like
I‘m not so crazy about the reality of everything 
I like a lot of fantasy and　That’s how I try to create to get away
to become moved ♪to become moved

♪ dancing on the cloud
♪ soaring up so high
♪ watch me now
♪ watch me fly
♪ I’m Peter Pan
♪ I can do anything
♪ I soar so high
♪ I am forever

It’s a magic
It’s hard to explain it
so I can just jump up
I swear and take off but nothing too hard about it 
I might do it(飛ぶ真似)

You can feel the energy anything around you 
You just feel it, energy from the moon and the plants
Everything around you It’s wonderful

I think nature, animals and all those things are very inspirational for my work 
I play off to those things, children
and they stimulate ideas creates all kind of things 
I just can’t tell you 
I think the majority of my success is from these sources 
There’s some people say “we’re going to detail” but It’s hard 
you really can’t 
It’s the whole world of it
You just play off the life 
I think it’s the same from what inspires painters and sculptors people of the arts 
It’s the whole world
is special♪

Hi. for those of you who don’t know 
I’m Latoya I come from a rather large family
a family of two girls and six brothers
When I was a little girl I used to watch all of my brothers rehearse every single day 
not knowing that one day they would be the famous Jackson5 
and I never had a dream that I would be a part of this as well 
because I never wanted a part of music in my life 
I wanted nothing to do with it 
just by watching them rehearse every day and struggling
and my father making them do it over and over became so repetitious 
I said no I don’t want a life like that I don’t want to be a part of that
and then it just all clicked and I became 
I guess 16-17 years old  there I was on stage loving every single minute
And I live it today 
I’m trying very hard to succeed 

One of my biggest dreams was always to really meet the Beatles 
because they were so big and
Michael decided to do a film with Paul McCartney 
because they have been writing together
and before you knew it there I was in the video “Say Say Say” with them
as a part of the video and we all work together there were such wonderful people
Paul and Linda McCartney and and 
of course the others in the family and we just had a ball 
We were out at Los Alamos that’s where we filmed it 
We were there for about a week  and it took four shooting days and it was just great 
very easy to work with it was very simple 
It was wonderful and I enjoyed every single minute 
and it was one of my dreams just to really just meet him 
Not knowing that a couple years later I would be working with him as well and 
I hope in the future I’ll be able to do more work with him and other people as well
