Wow! It was a shock to hear that Michael Jackson passed away today, June 25th...it was so random to me. It wasn't really known that he was sick or anything. Overall, Michael Jackson or as I like to abbreviate his name, Mike Jack has provided to the world, not only the US, not only black folks, just the entire WORLD, with some great music. Music that will forever live on, no matter what. If you haven't played the Thriller album yet since getting that confirmation that he passed...play it right now...TIMELESS! No one can deny his catalog, his performances, the way he dances (Moonwalking...what!)
This one is for you Michael and may you always Rest In Peace. I still can't believe it and don't think I will! But nonetheless, check out Michael's videos and reminisce back into time when you were a kid or even a teen or young adult. Wherever you were in life for all of his albums, singles & music videos it was all great music and Michael is and will forever be the truth...and an Untimely Legend Now...Enjoy!
The first video is Thriller...this is before they actually paid a lot of money for videos back then. I mean he did receive many accolades for this ...this video used to scare me to death...sorry I'm an early 80's baby...I was mad young back then...
Thriller
"Let that rhythm get into you..." Heyyyy..lol. For my StarFoods/Freedom Friday Folks in NYC, this song was definitely a staple each and every Friday. This is Rock With You...
Okay, now I'm fast forwarding to one of my favorite Mike Jack songs and videos...This has an all star cast (Eddie Murphy, Iman & Magic Johnson), and some hot choreography (Big Les doing her thing)... I even know the routine and I don't even dance!!! Remember the Time
Well when I don't like a dude's style, I tell him to "Beat It" lol.
But this video displayed how instead of stabbing and shooting, people used to dance it out...lol I like it better that way...And that red jacket is hot too!!
Who's Bad??! Another moment where dancing ended it all instead of violence...lol
My favorite made up Michael Jackson word..'Jamon'...not sure if I spelled it right..who knows, he made it up anyway. LOL
Last video for now...may have to do a part II, because I can't sit here all night!! Lawd!
But this is normally what I do though...Don't Stop Til I Get Enough...the Capricorn way..lol..Look out for Pt. II...Follow this blog and follow me on twitter: twitter.com/ctalley
