"ПРЕКРАСНОТО Е ВИНАГИ СТРАННО. НЕ ИСКАМ ДА КАЖА, ЧЕ ТАЗИ СТРАННОСТ Е ПОСТИГНАТА ПРЕДНАМЕРЕНО, ХЛАДНОКРЪВНО, ПОНЕЖЕ В ТОЗИ СЛУЧАЙ ТЯ БИ БИЛА ЧУДОВИЩНА, БИ ИЗЛЯЗЛА ИЗВЪН РЕЛСИТЕ НА ЖИВОТА. КАЗВАМ САМО, ЧЕ ПРЕКРАСНОТО ВИНАГИ СЪДЪРЖА МАЛКО ЧУДАТОСТ, НАИВНА, НЕВОЛНА, НЕСЪЗНАТЕЛНА ЧУДАТОСТ, И ЧЕ ИМЕННО ТАЗИ ЧУДАТОСТ ГО ПРАВИ ПРЕКРАСНО. ТЯ Е НЕГОВ БЕЛЕГ, НЕГОВА ОСОБЕНОСТ. ОБЪРНЕТЕ СЪЖДЕНИЕТО МИ И СЕ ОПИТАЙТЕ ДА СИ ПРЕДСТАВИТЕ БАНАЛНА КРАСОТА!"

But when they played it, it set the all-time record. Then they were asking me for EVERYTHING we had. They were knocking our door down. Then Prince came, it opened the door for Prince and all the other Black artists. It was 24-hour heavy metal, just a potpourri of crazy images…
They came to me so many times in the past and said, ´Michael, if it wasn´t for you, there would be no MTV.´ They told me that, over and over, personally. I guess they didn´t hear it at the time…but I´m sure they didn´t mean any pure malice [laughter].
