No matter what it is you put in your red plastic cup, it is the event and excitement that surrounds this libation chalice that the song symbolizes. "Music is about sharing thoughts and sending energy to another person," says Jackson. "I am responsible for the message in my music, whether it's that of destruction or positive impact."
