But to my mind, people don't really choose to be a superstar...Public do. The proof is here. Did Jesus wished to be depicted as a rock star, or even a white person..? He may have laughed a bit from where he is. And sometimes haven't ideed. Lots of love. Thank you Paul,

And as our dear THELMA said, I also do not like the idea of Jesus or God being a "Superstar", because the word has been invented by humans who only have "Profit" in mind when they make someone an Icon... and the first thing they want to do when they have put you on a pedestal, is to nock you off with critic... many so called "Stars" go to ground because of this and it's rather like "Slavery"! So now I'll get down from my pedestal and try to give you the translation; I think it means... Who, other than yourself, would you consider to be part of the elite society (the best, one of the chosen few) ... you see what I mean...;) ? I'd rather just remain human, Love Paul My dear Wanbliska, before I translate this for you, I would just like to say that it is often not possible to make real sense out of lyrics, because often it is written just to rhyme (symmetrical sound ;) and it is written often by someone under the influence…..;) of something or other.

I had never watched it as a whole. I remember reading in the papers that there was a big discussion about it. To be honest, I did not like the idea of Jesus as ..rock super star. Sorry, Paulo Coelho, you say you count it amonst your favorites. Of course, this is my personal opinion. LOVE, THELMA In 1974 Cyprus was in the middle of war and invasion..
