(August 29, 1958 - June 25, 2009)I remember the first Michael Jackson video I saw wasn't any of his really popular ones. Growing up to influences like The Beatles in the household and my dad being a Paul McCartney fan, we were sitting in the living room and my dad had a video collection of all Paul's hits. It was then that I was introduced to this legend of talent and music...Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson's "Say, say, say." I remember asking my dad to play it again and again. Soon MJ's music became a staple sound at my home. Mom's favorite was "Ben"...Dad's was "Got To Be There"...My brother's was anything from the "Thriller" album. When MJ and Janet came out with the video "Scream" that became MY favorite. Three different generations, one artist, all the same love and respect for him. The world is at a MORTAL loss of a great legend, but his music will forever be IMMORTALIZED to this world. May you finally rest in the paradise you so eminently deserve, Sir Michael Jackson.
I chose to post this video up because the person who made this video did a REALLY good job capturing Michael Jackson at what seems to be his happiest times. As well as I remember him saying how this song was most relative and personal to him and his life. Enjoy!
