There is a price to pay for fame. No one living or dead has gone thru it as much as Michael Jackson did. He summed up his experience with this unreleased song titled 'Price of Fame' I took my baby on a river boat cruise And she was well aware I was excited about the way the things could have been As in if I don't care I want a face no one can recognize, in disguise Someone called out my name They thought of taking pictures, autographs, then they grab My joy had turned to pain Father always told me 'You won't live a quiet life' If you're reaching for fortune and fame I feel the pressure setting in I'm living just to win I'm down in my pai Don't you feelin' no pain? It's the price of fame You pay the price of fame So don't be feelin' no pain It's the price of fame It's the price of fame So don't you ever complain? I am a cover of a magazine, what a scene They know my every do's 'Just sign your name on the dotted line, you'll be fine' That always bothers me Get in your car, you wanna take a ride, look behind Someone is following you You try to get away you turn with that, but too bad They know your every move Father always told me 'You won't live a quiet life' If you're reaching for fortune and fame And I feel the pressure setting in I'm living just to win I bleed in all this pain Don't you ever complain? It's the price of fame You pay the price of fame So don't you ever complain It's the price of fame You pay the price of fame So don't be feelin' no pain? It's the price of fame [Price of fame] You pay the price of fame [Price of fame] Father never lies My father never lies [Price of fame] My father never lies [Price of fame] So don't be feelin' this way, boy (Hee-Hee) (Aow!) (Do it) (Hoo) I like to take sometime and get away, then they'll say Is that boy still alive? The weak that really started taking pills, what a thrill Only the strong survive Father always told me 'You won't live a quiet life' They start to wonderin' where have you been I feel their envious looks at me Their mistaken jealousy And then stand here in my shoes And get addict of my blues It's the price of fame You pay the price of fame So don't you ever complain It's the price of fame You pay the price of fame So don't be feelin' this way It's the price of f fame] My father never lies [Price of fame] My father never lies, baby My father never lies [Price of fame] So don't be feelin' no pain, boy |

One of the recurring themes in Jackson's work—pervasive on the Bad album and its outtakes—is about being in control versus being controlled. Given the nature of his life, particularly after Thriller, this preoccupation makes sense. How does he retain his identity, his sanity, his privacy amid such suffocating scrutiny, adulation, and expectations? Out of this context comes the dark psychological rumination, "Price of Fame," with its Police-like, "Spirlll World" opening and "Billie Jeanu"-esque verses (there are also chords with echoes of "Who Is It". "Father always told me you won't live a quiet life," he rues, "if you're reaching for fortune and fame." The vocal throughout is drenched in painful irony. Where "Billie Jean" relays a mother's plea to "be careful who you love," here the father dominates via harsh dictums about the realities of show business. "It's the price of fame," Jackson sings in the chorus. "So don't you feel no pain/ It's the price of fame/ So don't you ever complain." While the song's production isn't complete by Jackson's standards, it does offer a powerful vocal (listen to the way he bites into the lyric: "My father never lies!". It is a striking juxtaposition to the easy bliss of the previous track, revealing why he so desperately yearned to fly away and be "free." |
