That's how I also feel. To be such a megastar as MJ was is not an easy way to live. I think he'll be happier if he can live as normal life as possible - go to groceries, movies, clubs.. and produce that kind of music he himself loves. But the thing is he DOES want to be the big fish. He has been alluding to it in interviews and said it straight out in the Swedish one about how competitive it is and he is constantly competing and strategizing to compete on the highest levels of pop music. This includes picking the biggest producers, songwriters, etc. These are the AAA-list hit makers and he wants to be on that list. This was not accidental. It's not just us wanting it for him. He obviously wants it for himself and he's working his ass off to make it happen. Exactly! I think this is something people miss when saying that Adam will be "just fine" because he is making the album he wants to make...etc., etc. That is NICE, but Adam wants more than that. He wants to have Pop hits, he wants to be able to have a bigger and better tour, and he wants to have concerts in bigger venues. Adam wants to be invited to sing at awards shows, the big New Years Eve show and headline the top JBBs, and the Grammys. Adam is a smart business man. He knows if he wants to keep getting the best writers, producers and video producers- he has to have a successful era this time around. It is a fact of the music business- the rich get richer. Sure, many of us would be happy with our new little Adam album and Adam singing in venues with 500 people or less, but Adam would not be happy with that. He isn't some Indie artist who wants to sing at glorified bars. Adam wants to move to the next level, so that is what I want for him.

I just got so verklempt with how happy and proud he is about this album!! I have recovered and am back to caring about sales again! ;D

Thank you! My I pad was not allowing me to view the other vids. Damn, this a great interview. I could listen to him talk forever.....but I have to walk my dog and go to work. Peace out people. On, and no angst about radio stuff. Most of the musicians that I love and are well known did not get there because pop radio played them. They are still famous and still making music, despite radio's ability to ignore their talent. Adam is in this for the long haul whether current radio loves him or not.

I will always care about the sales too myspenser because I'm pretty sure Adam cares about the sales. SuzieFierce & tigerlily made excellent points. That "made the album he wanted to make" was the meme bandied about by Cook fans after his disappointing sophomore album sales. I don't wanna be part of that chorus for Adam. If he's artistically satisfied with Trespassing that's one thing - and that's wonderful. But I'm sure he wants to be RECOGNIZED for his artistry. I know I want that for him.
