'Michael Jackson Was Charming But damaged': Elton John
Elton John has opened up about his friendship with Michael Jackson, describing the late music superstar as, "charming, sweet, lovely — but damaged." The 63-year-old chart topper recalled that sitting down to eat with Jackson proved to be a unique experience for the King of Pop.
"He came down here and we closed all the curtains and had lunch. He said it was the first time he'd sat down and had a meal with people for 10 years. He would always eat on his own," John revealed to the Telegraph. The Candle In the Wind singer said he was concerned about the strain Jackson put himself under. "I remember talking to Michael once when he did Thriller and I said, 'How are you going to top that?' He said, 'Oh, the next one's going to do twice as much' and I thought, 'Michael, it's not. You can't. You put so much pressure on yourself.'"

has the same flavor as the o thing about not wanting to be like michael (putting too much pressure on one's self). perhaps to suggest this would lead to dependency to cope?
I like your way of thinking!!!!
