^ Very well put. I agree with everything that you said.

And you brought up a very interesting point, with both of them not really wanting to grow up... Ayu obviously discusses this and many other issues with her lyrics, and MJ bought Neverland Ranch, and both have talked about this issue in interviews before. Because of the hardships they went through in their childhoods, they both seemingly grew up a little too quickly, went through their rebellious stages (MJ when he went solo + "Thriller"; Ayu in high school), and then went through the scrutiny of the press and people (plastic surgery, scandalous activities, etc.)
