There will never be another like Michael. His talent is beyond compare.
They don't make em like Michael anymore. But, then, they never made em like Michael before he came along.
@@billolsen4360
WOW!!!!!!
Awesome Comment!!!!!
Mike Would've Loved That..I can Just see him in a Bashful way telling You Thank You 😊
Exactly.
"Never seen 'Thriller'" Holy crap, I will absolutely be there to watch your take on Thriller. I re-watch it very Halloween going on 40+ years now. You are in for a treat!
I really wish you ended this comment with "you're in for a THRILL"! 😀
@@juniourst3ven596 I admit, I thought about it. It was just a little too "dad joke" for me.
The “Thriller” music video is just a masterpiece. It’s almost like an actual horror movie in its own way.
Michael had a skin condition called vitiligo. It is a gradual loss of pigmentation in the skin. It is actually more common than people think.
It runs in my Native American side of the family.
@@SassyIndianand the funny thing is, michael has native american blood in him
Was 8 when this came out and the lean was almost as shocking as the moonwalk. Everything that set MJ as the greatest is in this short film. His trademark vocal, moonwalk, fedora, choreography. Everything.
Yeah, I heard there was some type of peg that popped up from the floor into the dancer's shoes to allow that "lean".... because it really is gravity defying, but looks cool as hell!
SMOOTH CRIMINAL.....one of my Michael Jackson favorites ❣️💋
Maybe because he was just that SMOOTH ‼️
This video should have won a hundred awards
RIP Michael. Truly one of a kind.❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥
I've seen this video 1000 times, but after seeing how you reacted to it, I'm going to watch it again without the sparkles on it. Im sure that somehow I'll see your face all over it. I love your reactions❤
For the lean move, he has special shoes that hook into the floor
Michael got the name "Annie" from the CPR plastic training doll. The dolls name is Annie. And, when you get CPR training they tell you the first thing you say to a victim is "are you ok?". Now you know. I used to be a lifeguard and had to take the classes.
Oh, yeah...recessa-Annie! I'm glad Michael didn't have a friend who got murdered in her apt.
MJ's videos are always like little mini-movies. If you've never seen Thriller, you have to! That's almost like a full length feature film.
he already has, i'm sure he has lol even if he says not lol
@@billyjohn7846 Yeah I see that now. He's recorded his reactions but didn't necessarily post them in the same order.
The funny thing is that this video is from a movie he stared in called Moonwalker. If you haven't seen it I recommend doing so.
The joy this mans work can bring to another human is great
I have to answer the skin thing. Michael Jackson had a skin condition called Vitiligo, which causes 'blotching' or light spots. He used light makeup to help blend and eventually went through bleaching processes to make it even.
Lots of people of all skin tones have vitiligo. And some of them use makeup to cover it up. But they use makeup the color of their natural skin tone.
MJ had issues that went a lot deeper than a skin condition.
Still managed to be the greatest performer of all time.
@@MiddleAgedBob MJ did use dark makeup for years tho, but he had Vitiligo Universalis where the whole body is affected. So as time went on his condition became where he had more white skin than dark skin, it wouldn't make sense to do full body makeup every time you step out the door. It's a very common thing for people with vitiligo universalis to "switch" tactics to have an even skin tone, it's just a rarer form of the condition and MJ was constantly in the eye of the public who thanks to the media made it into this "weird" thing because a lot of people had never seen it before. He used Benoquin cream on his face and hands, wich lightens the dark blotches and works only on skin of vitiligo patients (FDA approved), agian commonly used for vitiligo sufferers. So to say someone had "issues" when you don't know the situation is unfair to do. Sorry for the whole rant but just wanted to shed some light onto it.
Your reactions make me laugh and smile. Great work and thanks for sharing. I think your subscribers are making great recommendations so far. I have enjoyed the variety. I saw the Jackson's Victory Tour and MJ did a great job live so this was a fun one.
Your reaction primo 😂👍🔥
Michael Had Vitilago - which made parts of his skin turn light, for years he covered it with makeup to blend in his skin colour - finally it was easier for him to blend in with the lighter tones - its well known check out this The Jacksons: An American Dream (TV Mini Series 1992 - it will give you some insight into younger life etc
Great reaction, Shon! I'm a classic rock lover myself, but I'm also an old guy. So, I remember when the Jackson 5 were on the television all the time, along with the Osmonds, etc... The OG MJ has always had a special place in my heart. Regardless of how strange his personal life seemed to be, as a performer, there was none better. I am so happy that a younger generation is "re-discovering" just how great Michael was.
Oh, and if you haven't seen "Thriller", then that is a MUST!
Something that will really blow your mind, what you normally hear as MJ's voice is actually just an act, his real voice is much deeper.
Your reaction is priceless 😂. I grew up watching The Jackson Five on TV. Love all of MJ music 🎶🎶
Elvis was the King of Rock, but Michael Jackson was the King of Pop! RIP both of them.
Every new video MJ released during the height of the MTV days was a huge deal. A world premier that usually played all day and was hyped up for weeks before. I still recall watching this world premiere and trying desperately to scrape my chin off the floor during the lean. No one knew what to make of that and we couldn't even rewind. 😂 Have you seen the full version of The Way You Make Me Feel? That's definitely a must!
no one will ever come close to michael❤
MJ invented long form music videos...his Thriller video was groundbreaking for a lot of reasons, not just the make-up and special effect legends or the legendary director..but the amazing dancers and choreography. His sister, Janet, also did some long form videos.
To this day, we have no idea if " annie is okay." Lol. MJ was one of a kind. Very blessed to be living while him and his brothers and janet were tops. Have you seen " black and white" by him?
Hahaha this cracked me up😂
@@shon1303Shon...you HAVE TO CHECK OUT this cover of *"Smooth Criminal"* by Alien Ant Farm!!! They give tribute and show love in every single way you can think of to MJ!!
ruclips.net/video/CDl9ZMfj6aE/видео.html
I love watching you react to these videos! You can tell that you seriously love all kind of music. Keep ‘em coming!
I miss MJ every day. No one else like him! ♥♥♥♥♥
Seems like I’ve been spoiled , growing up with these artists. When a Young dude 2023 saying ” this is cool” Now !
The world Will never see someone as great and famous like MJ ever again.
Love from Sweden.
Michael Jackson was just the bomb.
“Jam”, the video he did with Michael Jordan was unfuckingbelievable !!!! The humor, then the guest stars. Unreal.
Also “Give In To Me” is by far the sexiest song he’s ever done. Most people don’t think sex appeal when talking about MJ. But he turns it ON in this song and video…
Yes. And Dirty Diana!
I love that you are going back and choosing to watch the king as an adult and appreciating the true genius Michael Jackson was and will always be. You were that kid. So was I. ❤
Fun reaction! Nobody can beat magical Michael when it comes to smoothness for sure! It's as if he has some other substance besides bones as he is so fluid! The lean was imagined by Michael and it is special heels with slots that fit into grooves in the floor. So of course they have to be in an exact spot to make it work. However you have to have great core strength to pull it off and he has that for sure!
You can see him perform this song live on tour and you won't need a filter as it is not an "official" video. A good one would be from Rumania in 1992 I think. They do a great job live. Most all of his tour videos don't require a filter! And speaking of filters there are other choices that aren't so dark you might look for✌️
A lot of people don't know MJ held a few patents on inventions. One was a cleat that was screwed to the stage floor. And a loop that was on the bottom of his specially made shoes slipped over it. So he would dance into position and attach his shoes to the steel cleat, which allowed him to lean and seemingly defy gravity. There must have been some special brace that strapped to his legs as well to keep him in his shoes.
MJ's look in this video with the fedora and the black armband is totally iconic.
The chorus refrain, "Annie, are you OK?", was inspired by Resusci Anne, a dummy used in cardiopulmonary resuscitation training. Trainees learn to say "Annie, are you OK?" while practicing resuscitation on the dummy.[10]
Your expressions and laugh are priceless!!
Yes....could watch Shons reactions all day! (Doesn't hurt he's got personality and rhythm) 😂
Michael was labeled as many things over the years. Inventor is not often mentioned. Yes, the moonwalk was cool, but Mike didn't invent it. He did, however, invent the technology that allowed the dancers in this video to do that lean.
Had all his albums! I was a HUGE MJ fan. He was such a phenomenal talent and his dance moves are one of a kind. He was just pecked to death by so many and it makes me sad.
His music videos are all short film quality. He always brought his best.
Dirty Diana PLEASE!
Edited to add: the name Annie comes from the nickname for CPR dummies, which is Annie. And it’s part of CPR to first ask the person if they’re okay. 🙂
If you want to see him do the Moonwalk for the very first time, watch him perform Billie Jean and the 25th Motown Anniversary concert in 1983. None of us had ever see the moonwalk before and everyone watching was amazed!
Your reaction to Michael Jackson makes me so happy. I grew up watching him starting with The Jackson 5 and then through his solo career. As a girl growing up in the 1960's and 70's there was so much great music to listen to, but like there will never be another Elvis, there will also never be another Michael Jackson. His creativity is unmatched. He was so diverse in what and who influenced his dance moves from both prior generations and contemporaries like James Brown, Elvis, Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly, The Nicholas Brothers, Sammy Davis Jr., Jackie Wilson, Bob Fosse, Marcel Marceau, Charlie Chaplin, and Jeffrey Daniel. Then he took all that knowledge and put his own stamp on it. All his music videos are incredible.
You've done Smooth Criminal and Thriller so I'm going to suggest another couple of my favorites:
The Way You Make Me Feel
ruclips.net/video/HzZ_urpj4As/видео.html
Remember the Time which also starred Eddie Murphy, Iman (model/actress and wife of David Bowie), character actor Tommy "Tiny" Lister and Magic Johnson
ruclips.net/video/LeiFF0gvqcc/видео.html
I thought he had done Thriller! But, he also just said he had never seen it!?! I thought he saw Alien Ant Farm's version of this song!? What's really going on?
@@michaelfletcher9640 Sometimes it takes awhile to deal with copy write issues so the reactions don't always come out in the order they are filmed.
For a time, although Elvis had passed on, Michael was his son-in-law
Greatest artist of all time 🔥
"Annie are you ok?" He came up with that when he looked over to the CPR doll. Back in the 80's and 90's when you’re learning CPR, you shake the doll and say, "Annie are ok?!"
You definitely have to check out his full remember the time MV. It has 3 super famous celebs in it with an all black cast! You’ll love it, promise! Michael Jackson had the same skin condition Winnie Harlow has - Vitiligo. It occurs when cells that produce melanin stop functioning which causes light patches on the skin. There’s 5 different types of it and like his Autopsy report confirmed: MJ suffered from Vitiligo Universalis which affects your whole Body. Vitiligo tends to come with other auto immune diseases like lupus. What happens when you have lupus is that your own body attacks its own tissues and organs. Since he had a lot of dead tissue around his cheeks and nose area, he had to go through multiple reconstructive surgeries throughout his life to remove the dead scar tissue which made his nose smaller over time. Greetings from Germany, huuuuuge MJ Fan here!
p.s: MJ actually invented and patented the shoes he used to do the lean with! Not everyone can do it since it takes a hell lot of strength to pull off that lean!
And for those of you that are too young, These were EVENTS on MTV, when Micheal dropped a new video the world waited with anticipation....they were great little mini-movies. Funny story around MJ, My youngest was about 6, I listen to almost exclusively the 80's on 8 on SiriusXM radio. We're all in the car and I remarked to my wife " Do you remember when MJ was black?" My son from the backseat exclaims " Micheal Jackson was BLACK! You people don't tell me anything!" he was absolutely indignant that we didn't tell him, to be honest it never mattered really, we've laughed about that for years!
Dirty Diana gets me every time!!! MJ was a bizarre guy but UNDOUBTEDLY The King of Pop!!
How was he bizarre? You could never live the life he had.
What do you mean by bizarre? As if you are also a perfect human being
And you can do no wrong, right?? The perfect specimen 😂
Check out the Alien Ant Farm version if you get the chance. It's a great cover.
❤️👍🏻awesome reaction, and definitely agree 👍🏻 one of my favorites by Michael Jackson 😄 very good.
Now you need to listen to Alien Ant Farm doing their version of this tune! MJ loved it.
HELL YEAH! I just posted a Link for Shon!
Love this song!!!
Nephew 💙 your reaction to the music of my (younger self), brings a smile to my face, and warms my heart. Chef's kiss 💋 🖤🖤🖤🤎🤎🤎
Now you've gotta do the 'Alien Ant Farm' cover of Smooth Criminal. And Chris Cornells' cover of 'Billie Jean'. The two best MJ covers of ALL TIME. You will dig them both. The AAF one is more of an homage to MJ King of Pop. The Cornell one is different- whilst it's still an homage- Cornell manages to make 'Billie Jean' his own. Slows it way down and reminds us that Billie Jean is actually a really sad and tragic song, and showcases Cornells' voice as an added bonus. Many people- even some hardcore MJ fans- prefer Cornells version of Billie Jean to MJ's- which is clearly saying something. Next to impossible to pull off when covering one of MJ's most iconic songs. But leave it to Chris Cornell to do it- IF anyone ever could. I recommend the version from the Sirius Radio live studio performance. It'll blow you away. Chris changes it into a soulful expression of melancholic storytelling of EPIC proportions. 🤘
RIP MJ & CC
🌬🙏🏼🕊🕊🕯🕯⌛
Check out a version of Billie Jean by Canadian guitarist Calum Graham. He sings & plays a harp guitar. If you're not familiar with a harp guitar that alone should garner your interest.
@@rogerdaly6326
Thanks- will do! I adore the harp guitar. But I also adore the song so my interest was garnered sans the harp guitar aspect of your recommendation. It's just a bonus. 😁🤘
One of my favourite MJ Songs and Videos.
Great reaction Shon.
👍
I've been watching Michael Jackson since he was 5 years old. I'm 63 and I love this song so much and I miss him so much.
Ooooh Shon!? You really should watch "Thriller". You will love it. ❤
I seen thriller, such a fun video!! It’s on my channel but I recorded this a while back that’s why I said that
Oh believe me, during that era, IN HIS PRIME, a lot of people were calling him the GOAT as an entertainer, including his amazing dance skills. It's only THIS GENERATION that doesn't fully appreciate his greatness.
Michael was of magical being and I miss him every day.
It was also the birth of the original "hold my beer" when the little kid starts to dance.
❤ MJ 🐐
Loved your reaction. Made me smile watching you.
when I was a kid there was a cartoon about the Jackson 5. In fact, there were even packs of Jackson 5 trading cards (like baseball cards) even with gum in the pack.
Best video of all time. No one can compete not even close💯
You have a beautiful expression in your face and smile. Your excitement and rhythm is smooth too. One thing that makes you my favorite is your deep dive and explanation of the lyrics. You have made me understand the words and music 🎶 thanks ❤..keep doing what you're doing! Michael Jackson is this woman's man of music. Miss the man..no one will ever reach the top like him. Videos are well done and puts a story together well 👏 I too used to dance on the furniture to the floor in my bedroom. .his dance moves..original and crisp 👌
Some men are gifted with singing in high octaves. Dimash is famous for that as he can sing 6-8 octaves where most singers can only sing 2-3 octaves.
Check out Dimash - Stranger Here is the link ruclips.net/video/lFsB5HVnmSA/видео.html
P/S Dimash started music school when he was 5 years old. He is currently working on his PhD in music. He sings in several languages and plays multiple instruments but is most known for his singing. In the song Stranger, he sings in almost all of his vocals from a deep bass to almost whistle register and holds the last note in the song for 20 seconds.
Excellent reaction. I love watching you reacting to these videos. You make my day,,, seriously!!!! Thank you for this. I can honestly say that this is one of my favourite Videos/mini movies. The choreography in this is crazy. I have seen how they did the famous "Lean" was done. Even though it had a prop to help with it, it is still so difficult. In my opinion the back up dancers he performs with are equally as good as Michael , ( now don't beat me up on this) , if not better. Regardless, such a crazy video to watch and enjoy!!!
M.J. Is a musical genious. No one else compares to him. He is unique and that's what makes him the "King of Pop". Just like Elvis is the "King of Rock and Roll", James Brown is the "Godfather of Soul" and Aretha is the "Queen of Soul". Each is unique in their own right and has been the inspiration for those who came after them.
M.J. gets many of his iconic moves ( moon walk ) by dancers from the times of Vaudville. Bill Bailey did the first "moonwalk" ( There is old video film of him doing it in a routine). If you watch the video of the old timers doing a tap dance-off from the movie "TAP" (with Gregory Hines) you will see Sammy Davis Jr., The Sandman, Harold Nicholas and others do some of their classic tap steps) M.J. also took moves by Chuck Berry and James Brown to use in his routines. (Elvis was also influenced by Chuck Berry and James Brown and Little Richard.....he threw in some Karate moves too)
The exaggerated forward lean is something M.J. Invented ( I think). It involves metal pieces imbeded in the floor and grooves in the heels of the special shoes that attach to the metal. This move also requires a lot of core strength to pull the body up from that almost parallel lean. A lot of exercise and practice is required to do that lean forward.
M.J. had a disease called vitaligo that changes the pigmentation in the skin over time to pure white. If you go back and watch his videos you can see that around the time he recorded Billie Jean, the color of his skin was changing, only back then he was using Make up to cover the light patches. You can see that because sometimes his face was darker than his original skin color as it almost looked like he had charcoal on His face. I don't know, but think maybe he then started bleaching his skin as the disease was spreading more quickly. That could be a reason why he started wearing one glove. But then he also became very obsessed with his looks and was doing crazy plastic surgery. At one point M.J. said in an interview that as a child his father kept telling him he was ugly and had a big nose.
I know that after his hair caught fire and severely burned his scalp doing a Pepsi commercial, he started wearing wigs because his hair couldn't grow back. ( to learn more about M.J. I recommend that you read his bio on Wikipedia.
Hold onto your seat and pay close attention when you do * "THRILLER". It's a mini movie and more pure M.J. genious with one of the most iconic dance scenes ever!!!
Can't wait for your reaction!
Excellent breakdown, with one notable omission. A large portion of his more famous early choreography was lifted directly from Bill Fossi's performance of Snake in the Grass from The Little Prince. And yes, you're right, Michael held the patent for the shoes with grooves in the heel to slide onto the metal tabs on the floor for the lean.
Did anyone else notice that after the "lean," during the dance sequence, Michael did the first ever DAB!!!
The move where he leans, he is being held in place by some sort of block in the floor that fits into the bottom of his shoes. You can actually see this in a live performance of this song, where one of his background dancers stumbles, because he doesn't manager to get his shoe unlocked from the block supporting him.
I remember watching the video when it came out on MTV, and no one could figure out he did that "move." You know the one! It was only after MJ's passing that some choreographers explained how he did it. But even with the explanation, you have to be a PERFECT dancer (same steps on the same place of the stage - every time) for it to work. Simply amazing. FYI, if you want an exceptional explanation of how he sung so "high," check out Wings of Pegasus's video here: ruclips.net/video/CWP_mSlKK-c/видео.html Surprisingly, his voice wasn't super high, just super "thin." Wings explains it better than I can. Definitely worth a watch since you're already an MJ fan.
The TLDR for those who don't know, there would be a mark on the stage where a rod would extend into a special slot made into MJ's and the dancer's shoes that would keep them from toppling over during the lean...and yeah, you would have to be right on the spot with perfect timing or A) the rod won't catch it you're too far off or B)you mis-time it, the audience sees the rod and gives away the trick...
@@42Mrgreenman Like your screen name. I collect greenmen statuary. And thanks for explaining it better than I could!

You should definitely watch this man perform these songs live on stage
He left it all on the stage that's for certain and he had a lot to leave.
I think I read before that he would lose a significant amount of weight from one live performance. Legendary entertainer
@@hak4800 Yeh and his outfit designers had to make the outfits he wore towards the end of the show slimmer than the beginning
@@pat0583 Seen him live in Ireland in 1995 . Not enough live singing and he didn't talk to the crowd enough otherwise it was fantastic
@@hak4800 I'm not sure if he did perform any concerts in 1995
MJ creates art. I guess one could argue that all artist do, but we all know there are levels and MJ's creativity just can't be matched. That break in the middle where they swich off the music, channeling the whole pressure, the tension, the roughness, heat and the outlawishness of gansterrun, speakeasy, prohibition 1930 Chicago -vibe...pure art.
Then again, the music film is a part of Moonwalker, a family friendy action/sci-fi musical, so the drama makes more sense in that framework. Still, without it, the loose threads making one wonder and drawing one in even further, are quite neat too.
Michael Jackson had discoid lupus erythematosus, a chronic inflamatory, autoimmune condition where the body attacks it's own skin- and mucosatissues. As far as I know, it >>only>> attacks the tissues of the head (face, ears, scalp, mouth) in different extent from person to person. Some say the disease in itself can trigger vitiligo, others say it's the treatment of lupus that does it. Third sais they are genetically linked and fourth sais they are created by much the same endogenic and exogenic triggers. Truth is we don't really know the exact reasons behind these conditions. It's known that the two sometimes are connected, but doesn't have to be (meaning one can have one without ever having the other). Michael Jackson however, had both and sid in the OW-interview in -93 that it runs in the family.
Vitiligo is a chronic, inflamatory autoimmune skin disorder on it's own. Vitiligo destroys the pigmentation cells of the skin, the ones creating the melanin (melanocytes). Vitiligo comes in different subtypes, the most severe, but also most uncommon, one is called vitiligo universalis and affecs the whole body. This is the one MJ had. The lupus with all probability would have made the depigmentation process go faster than usuall. MJs make-up artist Karen Faye has spoken about how in the beginning they tried to even it out with make-up, filling in the depigmented spots. After a while it had taken over so much, they had to start filling out the still pigmented spots to match the depigmented ones. They sort of used make-up to make it look like a more even-pigmented change than it was, the whole body make-up getting lighter and lighter. MJ also got skin therapy creams and drugs that are normally prescribed to anyone having extensive vitiligo.
When the melanin leaves the skin, it's left without UV-protection. The lupus also destroys pigmentation and people afflicted by it are told to stay out of the sun. That's why MJ usually wore long-sleeved and -legged clothes outside and stayed out of direct sunlight when possible. I'm sure you've seen pictures of MJ using an umbrella for sunshade?
No matter when in life or which skintone, Michael Jackson ALWAYS took pride in being black. The bashings MJ had to take for it, however - both from white people and POC, but of course driven by white media - is body shaming on a scale no other celebrity in modern times has ever had to deal with. Few people, actually, has ever had to deal with.
Great reaction! Mike hits me right in feels too. LOL
Thriller official video HAS to be NEXT. Followed by the Dirty Diana video. There is a video on utube on how he does the lean :). Cheers from Canada!
Michael sin duda...número uno👏👏
He was making these long form videos after the success of Thriller. Like mini movies. Just one of a kind.
That instrument you said “ooooh what it that?” Is a trumpet.
My first two concerts were Metallica during their Master tour where I got to see Cliff followed by MJ think it was his Bad tour. Both GOAtTs of their genres and both some of the best live!
The amount of metalheads that love MJ is huge. MJ crossed over to everyone...people always forget this.
I first loved MJ in 1981 when i was 13 and off the wall came out legendary
“Annie” was a reference to Resusci Anne, the doll you learn CPR on. He was getting CPR training at the time.
I remember I used to play the Michael Jackson video game based off this video in the 7/11 store (when they used to have arcade games). Great video game. Those were the times lol
Yes! He’s on another level. Smooth is so accurate! He’s a walking, living and breathing brand….before there was such a thing.
I used to have a DVD of Michael Jackson videos including this one. Lost to moving a lot I can only assume. But the version of the video on that one was more extensive than this. It showed him running from the army and some Dobermans, and I remember something about a giant robot. I have never been able to find that version of this video. 😢
Moonwalker movie. 😉
I once read that Michael was a fifth degree black belt, and some of his moves come from this. As a former martial arts student, I can see where some of his routines seem to be adaptations of what we called 'forms'. Other styles call them 'katas', and I'm not sure I spelled that right. But anyway, yeah, I can see that much of the time, he seems to be doing martial arts forms to music. Especially when the kicks, and the arm throws are incorporated. So it's like kick, strike, grab, pull, strike.....etc. So of course I don't know if what I read was true, but I definitely see martial arts forms in his routines.
Now you should definitely check out the Alien Ant Farm cover of this. The music video is really great too, a HUGE tribute to MJ. Also Michael loved the cover, thought it was the best cover of his songs and gave his ok/approval on the video. When he passed away, at his request, MJs family invited them to come play live at the Michael Forever Tribute Concert.
10:25 The idea in this part is that after Michael's music stops people start screaming painfuly is like that Michael's music what make them alive
11:02 you can hear here that people started to sing the lyrics to beg him to continue
Wish you could have been there, nothing like it! I was there from the start in the 80's but was already familiar and singing the Jackson 5 songs!
I can't listen to this song without thinking about the crazy lady on Dr. Phil that was like sueing for rights to the song because she claimed it was written about her 😭
This video was the first level in the Moonwalker game on Genesis. Your special move was you could make all the enemies on the screen do the dance, and when they did the lean move they all fall over and die.
You are hilarious Shon..I can't with you.
Mj had both discoid lupus and vitiligo, both are auto immune disorders where your body attacks itself. In mj's case the vitiligo caused him to have a depigmented white spot or splotches throughout his body that gradually spread and got bigger over time. Both lupus and vitiligo are largely responsible for his changing look
I used to think he was singing "Eddie are you ok?" And its Annie. 🤣
He has so many great songs! My favorite is still PYT( Pretty Young Thing ). Dirty Diana is another great song! Thriller is a must! I would keep going but that will do for now lol
Michael Jackson had vitiligo which is a desease that destroys the pigmentation of the skin that's why his skin color changed he also had lupus not to mention that his hair caught on fire in a Pepsi commercial , and for his nose he obviously did a surgery but the reason behind it is that he broke his nose while rehearsing so he had to do a surgery in order for him to breath properly specially since he had lupus so he faced alot of difficulties in breathing , if you want to know more about his condition watch blackness by Jackson passion in your free time or react to it if you want , i hope you don't disrespect this man cuz he went through alot in his life from the ppl he knew and thought about them as his friend and from his own family not to mention the media who kept spreading lies that ppl believe to this day , and he already said that in one of his songs : " just because you read it on magazine or see it on tv screen don't make it factual " i feel like the more you go into his music the more you will understand him as a person, specially in his later years when he released history album which i consider his most personal album ever
Nutsack vocal theatrics. LOL 😂
MJ with the Tommy Gun shoot MFers is amazing. That boy a gangster for real
The king of pop!
PS,, I agree with @rebvan1,,, Thriller is a definite must to watch. It is yes,,, a masterpiece.
For me, the reference to "Annie are you ok" comes from the CPR training doll named Resusci Annie. When I trained to be an EMT/Paramedic we used those dolls to learn CPR and when you respond to a down patient you ask them first if they're Ok to gauge consciousness. So when practicing CPR on the doll we approach Annie saying "Annie are you ok". That's what I think the reference is.
