I think based on the stories of him insisting on being listed on Bat Out of Hell and the supposed jealousy he's felt toward Meat in the past regarding his celebrity that Jim would probably prefer to be the ninth-favorite thing of more people than the favorite thing of our group.

Which is not to say he doesn't appreciate us, because I think he's proven that in actions as well as words, but he wouldn't hate a little more recognition, and I certainly wouldn't blame him for feeling that way because he deserves it!
