"I'd like to be a good piano player."he says, "I've playing by ear and now I'm learning the notes, when you know the notes, you learn faster. I never though about having lessons, I used to borrow the neighbor's piano."
“我想成为一名优秀的钢琴演奏者，”他说，“以前我都是靠耳朵弹奏，现在正在学习识谱。当你掌握了音符，就能学得更快。我从来没想过要上课，过去我都是借用邻居的钢琴。”
"Hey, "he asks, "You ever heard this song? It's a Elton John thing that was on the radio for only a day or two, then it was gone. Bet you never heard it." And without knowing the notes, he sit and plays, tromping on the loud pedal like a grapevine trucker wailing on the clutch and never losing a gear. MJ gets there on time and in tune, right at home.
“嘿，”他问道，“你听过这首歌吗？这是一首Elton John的歌曲，收音机只播过一两天就没有了。我打赌你从没听过。”说着，在没有乐谱的情况下，他坐在钢琴前，踏着强音踏板开始弹奏，就象传说中的卡车司机踩着离合器鸣笛，而且从不脱档。就这样，就在家里，MJ一拍不漏一调不失地弹奏完了整首歌。
