1:19:00
He couldn't--
He seemed to think...

1:19:03
everything was slipping away
from his control...

1:19:06
and he was obsessed with this feeling
that he wondered--

1:19:11
would people recognize him
and come to a funeral...

1:19:15
and we'd never talked about anything
like that before.

1:19:22
But he said that he wanted--
1:19:25
He didn't-- He would like to be
like Huckleberry Finn...

1:19:27
and come to his own funeral...
1:19:30
because he didn't think
that there would be people who came.

1:19:34
He didn't think that the world
loved him like they did...

1:19:38
and he knew about how
the records were selling...

1:19:42
he knew that they were very--
1:19:45
thatJapanese people bought
a lot of them...

1:19:49
that people in Central Europe...
1:19:53
and in Asia
bought a lot of them...

1:19:56
but he just didn't think...
1:19:59
that he was that important...
1:20:02
and it never surfaced that
to me at least...

1:20:06
that he felt his own...
1:20:12
fame.
1:20:14
His humility was beyond everything.
1:20:19
And when l saw the people pour into...
1:20:25
St. Paul's Cathedral...
1:20:27
l couldn't help but believe
"Oh Glenn you were wrong...

1:20:30
for probably the first time
in your life."

1:20:33
You know 'cause he always liked
to think he never was wrong.
