People that were not alive or old enough to remember the early-mid 80s cannot understand how much of a literal god he was, there will never be something as huge as 83/84 MJ again, EVER.
Agreed!
I am 18 and I know that my mind can t really understand his impact in that time. However for me he is the best human ever and is an idol and a giant
@@fraz208 you remember how big Justin Bieber was in 2010 2011, multiply that times 20 and that was MJ in 1983 and 1984
I'm 13 and I try to find out how big of a success it was I think it's one of his best albums or his best albums and he had the best short films on that album. If I was born in the 2000's I would still listen to MJ and make videos as I do now still, I wouldn't listen to some Justin Bieber, Justin Timberlake, Usher, Chris Brown, and others. They just seem to basic artists and singers and rappers for me and I like more advanced people and other rappers from the 80's and 90's and current NY and Bronx rappers from last year and today known as drill now. I'm still a MJ fan to this day and continue to respect and support him and his music and friends and won't stop making videos until I die or if I get to old like in my 50s or 60s.
The said that about Elvis then along came the Beatles, then along came Michael Jackson. The things is that it will happen again and again.
It's just hype that's all.
Went to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and saw it in person, they also had his shirt from the ghost short film, a pair of his shoes, a Grammy, the jacket from the we are the world video and one of his belts, it was wild to look at
Wow! So cool!
Do u know how long it will be there? May I ask when u were there?
@@cindyovercash went there around July this year not sure how long they plan to keep it but I can't imagine it leaving anytime soon
@@acrackinthewall ok thank you, I definitely want to see it before it's gone🙂
@@cindyovercash I read an article it will only be there for a year
Watching Thriller and Beat It in 4K is fire 🔥
And Beat It! Hope Smooth Criminal is next.
We need all his movies in 4K. Let's write it everywhere
@@fullmoon7769 shoet films but I guess you can call then movies SPECIALLY IN 4K, billie jean should have been released by now but in 2K because it was shot on 16mm film, they could do this method so they can make it 4K but I can deal with 2K as it's better than 1080p, 720p, 480p, 360p, 240p, 144p, 000p.
Smooth criminal did get a bluray remaster for years now, as part of the moonwalk movie which includes it in full.
There fan made 4K
That Jacket is so iconic. I still love the design after all these years.
I still debate whether it or MJ's Smooth Criminal outfit are my favorite.
by the way: seing THRILLER in 4k is revealing a lot of hidden details like the buckels around mjs wrists, i never new they were there.- this tottaly changed my concept of the jacket. i am curious what other people discovered?
I see more his face expressions and more details in clothes and so on. What about Billie Jean in 4k and his other films?
I noticed that towards the beginning of the dance breakdown, you can see that his makeup only goes to his elbows
@@koala201211 I've noted that they didn't even rip up his pants for the zombie look.
Michael Jackson is just too iconic. Everything about his art and the man himself is just unique and interesting. Happy 40th anniversary to the best selling and the greatest album of all time, Thriller. And as for that fraud and his fellow liars, I am sure they are shocked to see Michael still been celebrated worldwide right now and their lies did not fool people who are wise. Thriller 40th anniversary billboard is in my country right now and so many people were so happy to see that. MJ legacy is intact and he is the best and no form of lies can stop that.
❤Innocent!!!❤
He is innocent!
Beautiful, great message.
Omg well said sweetheart .. here here. I hope those perjuring pieces of crap rot in hell and all who was involved in that mockumentary. Lies all lies and yes, I hope its pissing them all off right now. They wanted to down his reputation and keep the lies going but they were proved to be wrong. Dan Reed can go to hell as far as I am concerned and I will not ever watch anything what HBO have and will do in the future. I am well and truly boycotting everything. Michaels legacy will live on forever and us fans will make sure of that.
Thank you on behalf of Michael Jackson and all those whom love him around the world.
This is why I can't believe the accusers.
They lie and keep lying, and when they get caught lying, they come up with some bs excuse to get themselves out of it. ffs
Never knew that Thriller was available in 4k! Just watched it for the first time and it felt like I was watching a brand new video!
They finally uploaded Thriller and Beat It in 4K for the 40th anniversary of Thriller
Will we see his other films in 4k???
@@fullmoon7769 Yes. That is what his estate said.
@@fullmoon7769 Not sure but hopefully soon
We're did they release it ?
This look will always be iconic. Red and black are my favorite colors and look so sharp together. Leather never goes out of style. He knew what he was doing, it still looks sharp and cool today without trying too hard.
Thriller album is still at top 10 on billboard hot 100s as of 2022. The guy is resting in peace but still unstoppable .there will never be another Michael Jackson.
What happened to the jacket he wore in beat it?
This is coming
please make a video on Michael's Smooth Criminal outfit
This is coming up!
I hate that liar wade robson and safechuck🤮😖😡😠
*they are both losers and bums now!*
Wade did not have official thriller jacket
*what he burned was a piece of crap like HIM* 😂
I looked it up recently that the jacket was so popular, knockoffs were selling for $500 or more. You really couldn't tell if the knockoff was real or not lol
Lately, I’ve been wondering what happened to his blue and gold jacket that he wore during the 26th Grammy Awards. I also just started wondering whatever happened to his silver shirt that he wore during the second leg of the Bad Tour.
I do know Lady Gaga purchased a lot of his most famous jackets. Maybe she has it.
@@nathanbradleyf777 what, are you serious, why lady gaga 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
@@little.dc.happiness She bought most of them a while back. Said it was the biggest purchase she ever made.
@@little.dc.happiness What's wrong with that? She respects music legends and 80s culture.
@@little.dc.happiness She said it was so they weren't scattered to the winds and therefore kept in one place.
I am so grateful to your channel, I am so grateful to your channel🙏🏾 thank you very much, so much interesting information about Michael
Thank you! ✨
Thriller 40 Is new era 👍😶💯
Michael is forever iconic like bro you can make countless videos and the outfits he wore in them he is the pop starter pack LOVE YOU MICHAEL THRILLER 40 MY LOVE 🤩🤩❤❤
From the day it was made to this very day, the GREATEST music video of all time. And it always will be.
When I went to California I seen the mansion were he passed away and cementary he will always be a icon
You should make a behind the music video for Liberian girl. He started writing it in 1983!
his jacket, worn in the thriller video, was created in a town in southern Italy, Solofra in the province of Avellino, located in Campania. This product, original made in Italy, was born in this nerve center of leather packaging, among the most important in Italy.
He was a huge source of inspiration in all area there is, the only competitor he had was himself👑❤️👑
Side note but I can’t believe how massive Michael was that items like gloves worn during his music video could sell for that much money. Just blows my mind!
I would like to know where his Smooth Criminal, Leave Me Alone, Bad, and The Way You Make Me Feel short film costumes are.
I'd like to see his robotic outfit from Moonwalker.
This is so strange that Michael or his family or his close friends didn't save it like an archive. Many of his things and clothes were shown by Julien's Auction
His son Prince has alot of the thriller clothes on display and this Halloween people were able to view it on display along with alot of his awards.
@@king-dl2qt walk your non-educated lame attempt at trolling out the comment section. You obviously are just spouting hate to get a reaction. Go on now, git.
Chile I bet people would be ecstatic just to get his football Jacket
For a very long time the hall of fame in Cleveland had the distressed Thriller jacket on display along with a Billie Jean jacket, glove and fedora. They also had a pair of his shoes, at least some of the Bad outfit and the costume from the video for Remember The Time.
Long live king of pop
To this day F wade robson
Ur just attracted to little kids😊
i remember Lady Gaga saying in a interview with james corden that she have this thriller jacket. she has a lot of Michael’s stuff that she bought in 2012 auction she has over 400 including gloves tour outfits and many more stuff
As if you needed another reason to want to beat Wade in the f*cking face.
Those men accusing him were proven to be liars in court gtfohwtbs. Let that man legacy go on. We always gotta defend ourselves even after death. Can't just let a black man be great.
It's was the police that brought the charges on Michael Jackson after the children who accused him of grooming, the Men you talk about only came clean about it after his death.
Miss you soooo much Michael :(
That’s alright there is still little kids out there u csn touch
That Jacket Defines 80's Fashion Culture. It's pathetic that Liars Wade and James tries to pass the of the fake one that they burned as the real OG one.
he lied about that and the abuse
MASTERPIECE COLLECTION OF THEE IMMORTAL CLASSIC UNTOUCHABLE THE NIGHT OF THE THRILLER 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🏆👑💎💎🏆
Awesome 👏 😊
It greatly irritates me that any celebrity can go and buy one of his artifacts while his own family has to struggle to get just one jacket!
If they are struggling financially then there’s a problem.
0:54 WOAH.. interesting you included that clip from the horrific Leaving Neverland documentary. Mad respect to this channel for analyzing all playing fields and coming up with the best content
I love how the two fairy tale brothers claim that the two owned the original jacket when it was sold to some random rich guy from Austin.
Love you Michael 💓💓💓
the detail, I love all of your work especially with Michael Jackson, extraordinary work you’ve done with Michael Jackson I’ve watched every video! Do you plan on doing a Thriller 40 documentary on MJ’s Thriller album/era similar to what you did for BAD and Dangerous? I know it must take a lot of work and energy to do, thank you for everything you’ve done.
Thank you! There is a Thriller 40 documentary out next month. I’m gonna see what that’s like and decide whether to do one of my own.
@@thedetail. Awesome 😊
Wade burn fake jacket
I know
Yup
Cleveland ‼️Yeah, I was there like July 9th .. pretty amazing… I wondered if it was the original one😎 I also commented on your Instagram post lol. Love you guys❤️ keep it up! It means a lot to true moonwalkers🙏🏻 I feel pretty blessed to be close enough to see things like that when there are people all around the world who wish they could… And you have to get there because there’s so many of his clothes.. I live in Akron Ohio, which is also like a 6 Hour Dr. from the Gary Indiana house, and I drove there and had a moment as well🙏🏻
The King of Pop, Michael Jackson, was born on August 29, 1958. The artist was immediately recognized all over the world thanks to his memorable image. A selection of Michael Jackson's "signature" wardrobe items that created the style of the inimitable singer:
1. The famous glove with Swarovski stones. Raising his hand in this glove at one of his performances, Michael Jackson caused a rustle in all stage costume stores. Absolutely everyone now wanted to have the same glove as the legend of America. Michael Jackson's signature accessory was bought at auction by a fan of the singer for $350,000. 2. Ray-Ban aviator glasses were also an essential attribute of the famous singer's style. It is known that Michael wore sunglasses in many respects not for the sake of a stylish look, but to protect his eyes from direct rays. This accessory has become a kind of Jackson chip.
3. Not a single impersonator depicting the dance of Michael Jackson goes out to the audience without a hat. And this is all because during his lifetime the artist himself rarely parted with this wardrobe item. Felt hat - Brand name of the singer. 4. Thanks to Michael Jackson, jackets and biker jackets came back into fashion at one time. A red military-style jacket with a gold braid, created by designer Bill Witten, received special attention. In general, in every world tour, Michael Jackson appeared in the author's outfit. And the most recognizable and unusual costume of Jackson is the one in which the artist went on the Dangerous World Tour. Fans still cannot figure out what image the singer appeared in - as a policeman or an alien from another planet. The costume for Jackson was designed by Arfak Hussain. Michael Jackson's most recognizable and unusual costume is the one in which the artist went on the Dangerous>> World Tour.
5. Another feature of Michael Jackson's wardrobe was military suits and hussar tunics embroidered with numerous sequins. An indispensable attribute on these things is fringe and epaulettes, like those of officers of the highest rank. Just right for the king of the pop scene. Another feature of Michael Jackson's wardrobe was military suits and hussar tunics.
6. Futuristic metallic costumes are another artist's trademark. Very often during performances, Michael was wearing metallic leather in the style of Star Wars. The image was complemented either by wide belts at the waist, or by numerous straps on boots, or by iron shoulder straps. 7. One of the most recognizable items of clothing for the American legend was white socks and a shirt. They were on the singer during the performance of the song that became a legend - "Black and White". After this style was quite in demand.
I Also went to the rock and roll hall of fame about 8-6 years ago And I can tell you They had the smooth criminal outfit, Dangerous Tour Shoes, Jackson 5 Outfit and his glove but I’d Love to go again and see the Jacket now!
Loved all your videos about MJ! Thank you for giving him the justice he deserves!!! God bless you!❤❤❤
Your name is Apol??
Great Channel, interesting, well documented, magnificent, thanks for all
Thank you!
Amazing 🤩 ❤❤❤❤
1.8 MILLION dollars for THE thriller jacket!🤑🤯😲
Michael Jackson king of pop
Happy Halloween 🎃 🎃 🎃 👻 👻
Happy birthday Thriller 40 💝 💕 💖 💜
I Love you Michael Jackson 💝 💝 💝
Really love your videos. Thank you for all the Details you put in.🙏🙏🙏 I love how you mentioned who owns the jacket. I wish it was in the hands of his children though.
Its here in cleveland at the rock hall. Or at least it was the last time i went in august.
I can't help but point out that Wade Robson is a terrible liar.
To think that I, at one point, used believe him and James...
Absolutely, a proven liar. As he says one thing on TV and another UNDER OATH!
Karma will one day follow
I hope them, their supporters and the creator of that documentary get what they deserve for lying
@@dixienormouse1441 The problem is that it is not ilegal to defame a dead person according to English Common Law, which sucks.
They had this jacket at the Rock n roll Hall of Fame back in 2009 or 2010. I also doubt they flew in in under max security lol. I was close enough to touch it. Maybe i did, cant remember
The 80s were the golden years for music
8:28 don’t waste your time watching the whole video
Ok I got a really curious question that nobody ever asks other than where the thriller jacket or famous billie jean iconic ehinestone white gloe..My biggest wonder that I always want to know what happened M.J s famous Thriller short film Rubber latex Wearwolf mask that was made for the thriller short film /music video from 1983 that special effects make up artist Rick Baker had made for him to use in his iconic wearwolf translation scene in the iconic short film for thriller music video?..where is it today ?..and just from what I put together from what it appeared to me over the years is starting in like the early 90s right into the Dangerous album world tour..I' noticed when michael performed thriller during his concert list of songs he added in for his wardrobe a change in costume from his iconic leather red thriller jacket into the famous iconic Wearwolf thriller mask which he changes into toward s the ending of the song right after the zombie dance break..and from the look of it it looked very much like his original Wearwolf mask that was used for the short film..cause it would've been bout ten years or so since the music video short film was made..due to it looking a little warn out from yhe aging rubber latex.. just that of course he didn't have the yellow eye contacts to make it complete for the whole look due to concert time consuming..and from the Dangerous world tour all the way through the rest of the late 90s for his History album world tour he had used the famous Wearwolf mask whenever he performed thriller..and that was the last time I think anyone has seen it outside from the actual music video..I did also hear that michael did indeed have the mask in his possession sound his home somewhere due to recent interviews with his nephews Taj and Tyrrell jackson including his son Prince have told us stories of michael putting on the Wearwolf mask to scare them for fun play and according to one nephew one time michael used the Wearwolf mask as a disguise prank on the freeway to scare a road rage bad driver who was rude. Other than that nobody has ever shown of any existence of the actual thriller Wearwolf mask..and wierd that with michael being gone and with all the memorabilia and items auctioned off or displayed out in michael jackson items displayed in museums showcased all over the world out of all those things mentioned the item that I've seen nothing of existence or has never shown up after all these years is the famous Wearwolf mask for the iconic thriller short film directed by John Landis.
3:25 "wet-look"? The style is literally called a jheri curl and existed long before the wet look trend. This was like when certain " style experts" rebranded cornrows as "boxer braids" and all the other examples that have occurred when usually white influencers/celebs adopt traditionally black styles, I wish this person did her research a little better
I mean it has the appearance of wetness, I think that is all she is referring to.
@@thedetail. It could be, but the recent trend/style of wet-look hair has the exact same name and phrasing so that is what I believe she is referring to. Why not just call it what the style was called at the time, a jheri curl?
The article was actually written in 2002 so I don’t think she is writing about any recent hair trends.
After his death, I believe Paris wore it since I saw it in a 2009 photo after the death.
This is a great video,and also proves how sick Wade Robinson is....♍♍
*he is a wimp and a bum now*
@@afriend9428 rightfully so!!!
2:02 I'm so happy He didn't fart on his face
Boy the HYPE behind this one Music video WAS all that MJ rlly was the greatest of all time
Here you go, saved you time. The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is now the new destination for fans to view the King of Pop's iconic jacket, as it has entered the museum's Legends of Rock exhibit as a featured artifact, ahead of the 40th anniversary of Thriller.
About the jacket - I just assumed that Michael had multiples of it made to shoot the video in case one got damaged. So they may not be just one original but several originals.
This jacket or the billie jean FULL outfit???
Motown 25 jackets
Can you do more promo on your channel for Thriller 40? Such as doing a deep dive on the new demo tracks and including your personal favorites? It would be awesome to mention in the video Thriller 40 made #7 on the Billboard charts this week🤩
Whether they are telling the truth or not, those two accusers made insane bank. First they can sell anything given to them for more than most people make in a year, and then they got press and book deals from the accusations sheesh.
I wanna know where the suit he wore for “smooth criminal” is and the suit he wore for the front cover of the the thriller album.
I believe the Thriller album cover coat is in the Grammy museum, along with an autographed replica of the Thriller short film jacket.
Nobody can eat popcorn as cool as MJ.
Love ❤️
One time for Halloween I said OK just up as Michael Jackson
get some DNA on that jacket to be sure
Mj almost look like a power ranger 😂
Wish they gave all his stuff to his children instead of trying to have a museum of it.
So many liars in this world. Wade burned the memorabilia for tv shock value. He's a liar!
*GOAT* ♥️♥️♥️
The iconic white crystal glove. I'm waiting on that next. I'm get that thriller jacket 😎
Yeah buddy, maybe if u had a couple of millions spare
0:52 good
Who designed the outfit for BAD album cover or video?
It was an outfit michael jackson got off the rack from a punk store on Melrose
So I found out a while back that it turns out…….during the “movie” scene when Michael transforms in front of his girlfriend, he didn’t actually turn into a werewolf, he turned into a werecat which is smaller than an adult werewolf.
Why would people want to sell one of their personal items that was actually SIGNED by Michael Jackson. That is something so meaningful that you’d should cherish & hold onto forever that’s crazy.
$$$$$
He burnt it
I'm a 90s baby and my wish for next Halloween is to dress up as Michael and Ola Ray for Halloween with my husband I will just be married to.
(2:00) Weighing 99 pounds? Wow! 😮
It goes on show at Encino home Halloween time
I had the zipper jacket back in the 90's wish I still owned it today.
Mj never said video he said short films
I use it interchangeably
I would say short films as well since they are short and not like 1 hour or 30 minute movies or videos
Is no one going to talk about Michael Jackson allegedly being 99 pounds for the Thriller video? I’ve heard this before and I don’t believe it. Michael Jackson was closer to 5’10” in his prime before losing height in his later years and getting closer to 5’9”. 99 pounds would put him at about a 14.5 bmi which is severely underweight. Doesn’t seem possible considering how he looked. He was obviously skinny and likely a little underweight but not that bone skinny. He looked healthy enough in the face. Just looking at him in the Thriller behind the scenes, he looks to be about 120 pounds which is a 17.5 bmi and that’s just a little underweight which rings more true. The “99 pounds” seems to be just a rumor by Deborah Landis born out of shock value. She never claimed to know his weight and made a guess. An exaggerated one. Also she said he was a 27-28 inch waist, not 26, which seems more likely but not sure if I can trust her measurements after the “99 pounds”…
I recently got myself a cheap thriller jacket tho at somepoint i do wanna try get one thats like way more decent
We need a Michael Jackson movie. I think it’s time!
2:02 £99 with a 26 inch waist ? 🤔
Siiick
Mike aint touch them kids. He never had a childhood so he had a love for kids. I refuse to believe bro was touchin on kids
I just saw this old Indonesian dude walk down the street strutting his stuff with a Michael Jackson jacket and a perm like a week ago. I was like whoa. Freaking cool.
I'm dressing up like Michael Jackson
The white hat and suit from Smooth criminal
that jacket belongs in the Black museum in DC .
Nice video what i would love to know is what was the outfit Ray Parker Jr was wearing in his music video for Ghostbusters, but i want find anything about it 🤔
EVER LIVING
What a great work or researchs!!!
But a little mistake, the thriller jacket was not signed by MJ.
It s Michael bush who did this signature.
I had much respect for his work and he s a nice person, but he made some mistakes in 2011, no the place to debate of .
You dont have to be ashame, John Branca recently did the same error in an instagram account video with an MJ glove signed by Michael Bush.
Really?!? Didn’t see that written anywhere. Have you got any sources?
Haven't heard of this. I always thought that Bush's collection has legitimate autographs.
