Quotes

Presenter: [following Michael Jackson's performance] Any words one speaks or writes are sort of redundant in the face of what we've just seen or heard. He is probably the most famous person in the planet, God help him. He has also sold more records than anybody in the planet, and he has also written, recorded and performed some of the most glorious music in the pop canon. So they had to dream up an award to give him tonight and they came up with the 'Artist of a Generation' award -- but Michael Jackson has been making music literally since he was a baby... so what generation? At least three have been listening to him already, and who will they give it to next year, or is the award itself a one-off, like the man himself? Because, erm, childhood prodigy to adult genius -- when Michael Jackson sings it is with the voice of angels, and when his feet move you can see God dancing. So tonight the Brits' 'Artist of a Generation' is, of course, Michael Jackson.
