MJ comes on stage

Boris Becker (BB):
Congratulations, Michael Jackson.

BB gives MJ the Bambi Award

MJ:
Thank you.

MJ takes the Bambi Award
And dances a few steps to his Thriller
Then MJ gives BB the Bambi Award back

MJ:

Wow, thank you. Thank you.

There are standing ovations, and the applause doesn't stop.

MJ:

Thank you very much.
(to BB:) How are you?

BB:
I'm well.

MJ:
Thank you so much.
Oh boy, let me see.

MJ takes his reading glasses and wants to put them on.

MJ:

I'm sorry, I have to use these .. ah.
For a few words.

The glasses don't get well on his head, so he tries again.

MJ:

Ah .. Jesus.

The glasses fit now.

MJ:

Okay, here we go.

MJ was so funny now that most people have to laugh a bit.

MJ:

Dear Dr. Burda, dear Dr. Turnhofer, ladies and gentlemen,
I have many good reasons for my visit to Germany.
Coming back to Berlin,
So full of energy,
It's very special to me.

Berlin, Ich Liebe Dich.

Applause

MJ:

September 11th has changed our world,
And long ago the Berlin wall came down,
But recently new walls were built.
In 1989 people in Germany said

Wir sind ein Volk


We are Germans, we are Armenians, French, Italians, Russians, Americans, Asians,
Africans and many other nationalities.

We're Christians, Jewish, Muslims, Hindus.

We're black, we're white.
We are a community.
Of so many differences.
So complex
And yet so simple.
We do not need to have war.

Big applause

MJ:

And to the children of Germany
I want to say this

We need you.
The world needs you.
Please go for it.
Go after your dreams.
Go after your ideals.
You can become everything you wanna become
Become an astronaut
Become a scientist
A great doctor
And of course . become an artist

Maybe you get a Bambi award like me then.

MJ laughs a bit to BB and there is applause

MJ:

I want you to know
I love Germany
You are very special in my heart
So much really

Always appreciate the gift of life
Be happy
And have fun.

I love you.
Thank you very much.

Standing ovations start again.

BB gives MJ his Bambi award back

BB:

That's for you.

MJ:
Thank you
I love you
Okay.

MJ is waving kisses to the audience and looks around, not knowing what to do. The showmaster says:
Stay with us

We are the world starts playing and many people go on stage to see MJ and get photographed.
