If you like this rock sound by Michael Jackson, then 'Give in to Me' is an absolute MUST! It's my all time favourite Michael Jackson song. MJ + Slash = PERFECTION!!
he did a concert for princess diana and took this song off the list of songs he was going to sing out of respect for her she found out and told him oh you have to sing it
The concert wasn't for her. He was on tour and being friends with her, when he saw her before the show she asked him if he was going to do the song. He told her no, that he took it off the list out of respect for her since he knew she was going to be there. She then replied that it was her favorite song.
Michael WROTE, Co Produced, and Arranged this song! Alot of folks dont like to give MJ credit as a producer and writer and just think he was a song and dance man, but he wrote and co produced ALOT of his hits!
Not only that...but sometimes he was creating a song the other way around..i mean he was creating first the basic rhythm/music and then he was writing the lyrics to fit on the music he listened on his head..now that's something really tricky to do and for sure not so easy as to write the lyrics first and then the music... Not cause I am a fun of him, but the man really had a lot of talent...
Funny story. A year after mj passed away I got his "this is it" album. My little sister flat out no joke said these exact words in a snotty "Well with michael dead justin beiber is the king of pop now" Her beiber poster was violated with black and red marker the following day
If you weren't around when MJ was at his peak, you wouldn't understand how huge he was. The crowds that gathered around him were tremendous. Like when the Pope makes an appearance. It was insane.
After the success of the Thriller album MJ was one of the most famous people on earth. EASILY. LOL. Everything he did back then was written about,talked about,etc,etc,..being THAT famous isn't the greatest thing tho. IMHO.
@@lexislems1773 FACTS...people in remote villages with no running water knew who the man was. That's an insane level of popularity that will never be reached again.
The next Michael Jackson song u need to do is “Scream”. The song is about his frustrations about the allegations. He is very aggressive and pissed off in the song. I freaking love that song
What MJ went through is absolutely horrifying. I think if you dive more into his story you’ll get to find out that he was massively framed throughout his life - started as soon as he bought the Beatles catalogue in 1985. He has an Album called HIStory which is pretty personal! He was fed up and exposed a lot of things - you’d be VERY surprised! It includes a feature with Biggie, A track against Santa Barbara district attorney Tom Sneddon, a Song about little Susie, A diss track against the Media/Tabloids, a very emotional track about nature and the earth, a song with his sister Janet about how tired he is, a track about him feeling alone and isolated as well as you are not alone which was the first track ever to debut at #1 in 1995 and so on.. 99% of the negative stories you hear about Michael Jackson are 100% not true. Much love from Germany, huge MJ Fan here - love your reactions!! 🫶🏼
Probably....with the exception of ELVIS . He tried to make a marriage work with his daughter even. Well ...if SOMETHING doesn't work it doesn't work .😅
I cannot imagine not having Michael’s music in my life, he’s definitely my favorite artist of all time. It was said this video was a live concert/performance. Him & Princess Diana were good friends, and she said this was her favorite song of his. Michael at the time didn’t perform it when she was in the crowd out of respect, he didn’t know she loved that song. Come Together or Give in to me are records that have a similar vibe if you like this kind of style from MJ.
He did perform it. The ahow was at Wembley 1988 where he met with her and Prince Charles before the concert started. The full concert is available, including the performance of this song.
His first performance of the moonwalk was a live performance of Billy Jean. When he made the Dirty Diana video, I was in one of the audiences that watched him perform live. He was making the video for his Moonwalker Video. Seeking perfection, Michael performed this song about four times for three different audiences. Each audience has to watch him perform for about six hours each. He wanted to record the audience that cheered the loudest. Every time he finished singing the song, he had to change his ripped shirt, rest, and freshen up to do it all over again. He gave every member in each audience the first release of the Dirty Diana CD. I still have my CD.
He looked so BADass in this video, imho the best he ever looked. Back in the days in the Netherlands many of us had the Thriller leather jacket and I went the extra mile to grow my hair just like MJ, specific the Dirty Diana look. MJ never dies!
I am blessed to say that my generation experienced him from when he was with the Jackson 5. There was No ONE singing or dancing like him then or since. Genius level.
There was that debate in the 80's to know who's the best between Prince and MJ. Prince was a genius, a beast on stage and a complete artist, but Michael was a sorcerer, the minute he started to sing you were bewitched.
Michael said himself in an interview this song is about crazy groupies lol (obsessed girls who hang around concerts, backstage, etc) so you are totally right!! Poor Michael even had to deal with a stalker for YEARS
@@williamyates694he literally said himself in many interviews that it was about groupies but apparently according to you what he said from his own mouth is wrong? You just want to believe that for no reason, is it that hard to believe he had MANY obsessed girls following and bothering him??
@@sophiaamancioo22 yep! Janet even talked about the song when he told her about what he was writing. Lol!!! WOW!!! Not hard to believe he had ANYONE following him around, but people in his circle talked about it. Diana herself admitted to following around stars and giving "favors" to get a break in the business. 🥴
May 16th 1983 while performing Billie Jean at the Motown 25 show. MJ always has and always will be my number 1 singer. I was born in 81 so his music was a huge part of my childhood and life. It's hard to explain really but even though I never met him and was never lucky enough to see him perform live, he felt like more than just my favourite singer/performer, he was a friend. It was like he spoke directly to his fans in a way so few can. The day he passed I cried so much. Love and miss you MJ
I get sad when I hear that people just didn’t listen to MJ, but I sure am happy to see people react to first time listens of a song!! This is my favorite of his!! Thanks for reacting to it!
This Man Was a Genius 100%, Untouchable as a Dancer and Performer, I Seperate All The Stories and Rumours About Michael Jackson From His Music, I've Always Loved MJ and His Music and Will Never Stop Listening To His Music, RIP Michael Jackson 😥🙏.
It is impossible to imagine what this genius had to go through, being such a kind, sensitive and vulnerable person. His beauty, his charm, his soul, his personality are a gift to a world that does not deserve it. His music is timeless. No one will be able to come close to his legacy. It is sad to realize how cruel the world has been and is
His music and dance moves are what made him stand out from his brothers. Also, this is not a video. It is a live performance. His performances were amazing.
It has been a long fifteen years since Mike left us. He changed the World and music. Now, the real Michael Jackson to me was when he was with his brothers, now that's the real Michael. This song is a classic, he loved every genre of music. He grew up singing country songs, and had a record deal with Steeltown Records along with his brothers when he was only eight. Mike was just different, the greatest entertainer of all time
Michael Jackson truly transcended generations. I’m born in 95 and still became a big fan of Mike, through my pop’s side (mainly my grandmama). She has real original vinyls. She would play the temptations’ Christmas album every Christmas for me and my cousins . But she put us onto so much. Especially Michael. I still remember the sad day he left. 2009 summer time. I had just came out of the theaters with my parents, from watching transformers: revenge of the fallen. My mama yelped out “oh my god! Michael Jackson diied”😂. Not funny but I really remember that day like Yesterday. Just like I remember “September” at 5 or 6 🤦🏾♂️🙏🏾.
MJ was the Best. I was a teenager when he died all the way in Nigeria and my class Was in Tears. That just tells you the Person he was. He's One of the Best Musicians Ever in the World
This song, "Dirty Diana" is not a cover song, this is a Michael Jackson original song, the song he did that was a cover was when he did the song "come together" by The Beatles
Yeah! I would love to see you guys go down the vast Michael Jackson rabbit whole. There is so many reasons to love and enjoy his creativity, regardless of what many haters say and want us to believe.
You can always tell when MJ has written the song because he loses his temper. 😂 mainly at the end of the song. He starts fuming and going on a mad one with his vocals. Work of art. Can’t be replicated. EVER
I appreciate you guys telling your introduction to MJ at the start of the video. Not many people would be honest in telling their perspective into discovering a recording artist they aren't familiar with, even though they are so famous and people believe that everyone is suppose to like that act. Totally respect it!
MJ THE LAST GLOBAL LEGEND WITH HIS OWN SIGNATURE, STYLE, DANCE, MUSIC.....ALL BEFORE INTERNET, SOCIAL MEDIA ETC..... SAD PART IS THEY BRING HIM DOWN FOR HATE....IN MY OPINION HE WAS TO PURE FOR THIS BROKEN WORLD. I GREW UP WITH HIM AND SEE HIM GROWING FROM THRILLER TO HIS END.....1 OF A KIND
That moonwalk is a tricky question. He performed it live on Motown 25 in early 83. I remember because our parents let us stay up to watch even though later i realized it was pre recorded. Thing is he actually did it a James Brown show live later in 1983. James invited him onstage as he was in crowd. There is a great video of it on TH-cam
My son is 6 he knows who MJ is and I bet many kids do know him even if it wasn’t in your generation most people know of him ,he was magic in every way and tha’s why his music crossed generations and continues to,maybe that’s why it’s so hard to believe that you didn’t know much of thriller
I saw MJ in concert in 1993,the only time he visited my country,Argentina,at the River Plate Stadium in Buenos Aires with the Dangerous Tour. The thing about his shows was that they were a complete spectacle,not just someone performing songs,he was also a phenomenal dancer,accompanied by other dancing phenomena and with a tight band with some of the best musicians you could find. It was a powerful and emotional show in many ways,coupled with the incomparable charisma of the King of Pop. He would bring fans on stage and they would really lost control. No one will ever be able to replace him.
The best story about this song is while performing where Princess Diana would be, he took this song out to not offend her. Princess Diana was disappointed because this was her favorite song.
I think the weekend is literally studying Michael Jackson's playbook, and I love it. The dirty diana cover is quite good. No one will ever replace Michael jackson, but if an artist can appreciate the true visual and artistic nature of MJ, I'll definitely tune into see. Michael once said, "Never stop studying the greats," and it's obvious the weekend studies, jackson.. btw good reaction 👍 Oh BTW it's a staged concert just like give into me.
Michael Jackson was so iconic, he was and forever will be a Legend. I hate it when people say things about how something is fake because they think everyone has to have seen something but all people are different and from different places or life styles. I'm just happy to see you guy enjoy MJ. I found out about MJ when he passed away in 2009. I was 11 and until that day I had thought he was 1 of 3 Michael Jackson's lol, turned out he was all 3. So the day I fell in love with MJ, was sadly the day he died. - If you like the feel of Dirty Diana then check out the song and music video for the Beatles cover he did for *Come Together*, it kinda had the same feel. Great reaction guys!
"She said he's not coming back, because he's sleeping with me!" is the most lyrics ever! 😂 The words, the plot twist, the drama, the delivery - everything's top notch! This was a staged video, but if I remember correctly this was filmed while he was already on tour, so there was no time for elaborate production and the woman in the video is Sheryl Crow, who was one of his back-up vocals on tour.
There is only one King of Pop! I'll always be a Michael Jackson fan. I was pretty young when I first heard Dirty Diana (the song had already been out for several years). I wasn't entirely suprised because if you listen to his albums, every song has a different creative style, tone, cadence, tempo and beat. I feel like Janet Jackson's (his sister) Black Cat was more of a suprise to me because of the rock tempo that is way different than her usual upbeat, R&B, pop and soul. Legendary artists and well created songs that will never be forgotten. Great reaction y'all!
He died when I was 15 or so , and it’s just now when I’m 30 I kinda rediscovered his music. I wish he was still here , to know he is out there alive… did not appreciate it back in my teen years. Anyways , thank God for YT and all those amazing clips I can play on repeat ❤
Great explanation how public opinion shaped trough media and sheer enjoyment of tearing down such icons. I glad you are so open minded and give him a chance. I hope you'll do so much more. For example "Bad" full version is probably Michaels best acting, chills. Chills.
Grew up with Michael and The Jackson Five from the late 60’s, thru his solo. This is ABSOLUTELY one of my favorite songs of his, dirty, gritty. Let’s face it… what man doesn’t like a “Dirty Diana”? 😜 Legendary.
You have to see his “smooth criminal”. Michael Jackson was known for not only being the king of pop for his music but for his videos. They were masterpieces. Smooth criminal has a true movie video that went with his moonwalker film and it’s one of my personal favourites.
Great reaction guys! My favourite track off of Bad...hands down. It's raw, rocking...and shall I say it...DIRTY!! Thriller (the whole album) will always be tops for me, but this album was an amazing follow up! RIP MJ.
Michael Jackson performed his iconic moonwalk on March 25 , 1983 during his performance at the Motown 25. I was 15 and it completely blew everyone away. Even Gene. Kelly called him and told him that he had just created history with his performance and said that it was the most incredible thing that he had ever seen!!!
One of his best music videos is Remember The Time. Epic on the scale of Thriller and had Eddie Murphy, Imam ( David Bowie's wife) and Magic Johnson (the basketball player) in it.
Steve Stevens🤘This is my favourite MJ performance. It's cool and different. So glad I got to be a teen and young adult in the 80s. Had the best music. No social media cancer. No helicopter parents tracking my every move. What a time to be young. Also, we had the best hair 😂
Thank you for the first 6mins you gave us to explain about how both of you discovered MJ's music. I can totally relate to it-- I think I was about 15yo when Michael died. I always knew the name Michael Jackson and heard his classics, but there were really none in my surroundings who were totally big fans of him so I never really understand how big he was, as internet was still limited. My parents listen to his musics in the 70s when he was still in the Jackson 5 and during Off The Wall album. I was exposed to his earlier musics in those days but not afterwards. So in the early 2000s until his death, whenever the name Michael Jackson came up in media, I remember it was never really a good thing about him. They called him wacko jacko and it was just about (mostly) his trials at the time. My parents were not like, a big big fan, but I remember they sympathized so much about what happened with him. But I don't know why, I just never thought to dig more about him, probably I was into something else at the time, and I was just being indifferent because how the media portrayed him as this "weird guy" (which is very rude). That-- until he died in 2009. I remember watching his memorial service with my family on TV (it was live on every national tv channel in my country at that time). I remember my mom said this when we watched the service, "Now, that is the King of Pop. Nobody will ever do the same like he did." And the next day, I sat in front of my computer, went on TH-cam and discovered Thriller for the first time. That-- until now, as I discovered more and more about his musics, his legacy, his talents, his humanity; make me think that no entertainer can do it like Michael, ever again. People misunderstood him very much just because he 'looked diffferent' and mysterious. Even any artists today would kill for privacy. And as an enjoyer of arts, I don't think it's our business to know about the artists' private lives. Anyway, in Michael's case, I know he was innocent for all the charges being charged to him at the time and will always be. Of course he had flaws, he's just human after all, but I think what we can do now is to learn from what has happened and don't let things like that happen again in today's generation. MJ is a legend and forever will be missed 💛 P.S. Sorry for the long comment (I think this is my first time leaving a comment this long in someone's youtube channel 😂) However, love your reaction and yes, react to more MJ, please! 👑
Every race & country loved Michael Jackson. He was Babe Ruth, Michael Jordan, and Elvis all rolled into 1. He ruled the world for a decade. Im fortunate to have been a kid in his prime. MJ had no competition.
You really need to watch his video the official music video for The Earth Song by Michael Jackson. So powerful. It was almost like he was predicting the future. Really moving. Check it out. By far one of his best songs.
If you like this rock sound by Michael Jackson, then 'Give in to Me' is an absolute MUST! It's my all time favourite Michael Jackson song. MJ + Slash = PERFECTION!!
This is my fave rock song from MJ, Slash is phenomenal on this one.
Dangerous is my absolute favorite album
Probably my favorite song ever!
I confirm
Beat me to it. Give into me is my favorite from him
Michael Jackson was the greatest entertainer ever. No one ever will top him.
Lu et approuvé love mj génie artiste complet interplanétaire merci
DAMN RIGHT NO ONE !!!!!!!!
Word
he did a concert for princess diana and took this song off the list of songs he was going to sing out of respect for her she found out and told him oh you have to sing it
He did end up singing it at the show
@penderyn8794not anything near as rich as the British monarchy has
If the concert was for her in the first place what would be the point of putting it on the list and then taking it off?
The concert wasn't for her. He was on tour and being friends with her, when he saw her before the show she asked him if he was going to do the song. He told her no, that he took it off the list out of respect for her since he knew she was going to be there. She then replied that it was her favorite song.
@@MarcusFrederiksenwas well put in too

I appreciate you guys telling your introduction to MJ at the start of the video. Not many people would be honest in telling their perspective into discovering a recording artist they aren't familiar with, even though they are so famous and people believe that everyone is suppose to like that act. Totally respect it!
MJ THE LAST GLOBAL LEGEND WITH HIS OWN SIGNATURE, STYLE, DANCE, MUSIC.....ALL BEFORE INTERNET, SOCIAL MEDIA ETC..... SAD PART IS THEY BRING HIM DOWN FOR HATE....IN MY OPINION HE WAS TO PURE FOR THIS BROKEN WORLD.
I GREW UP WITH HIM AND SEE HIM GROWING FROM THRILLER TO HIS END.....1 OF A KIND
That moonwalk is a tricky question. He performed it live on Motown 25 in early 83. I remember because our parents let us stay up to watch even though later i realized it was pre recorded. Thing is he actually did it a James Brown show live later in 1983. James invited him onstage as he was in crowd. There is a great video of it on TH-cam
My son is 6 he knows who MJ is and I bet many kids do know him even if it wasn’t in your generation most people know of him ,he was magic in every way and tha’s why his music crossed generations and continues to,maybe that’s why it’s so hard to believe that you didn’t know much of thriller
MJ stood out as the composer of this song. This and Smooth Criminal are two of the best he wrote and composed.
Mike got nothing but timeless classics this would be a banger today.
I love the rock side of Michael!
You really had to be on his timeline. It was a great time. Everyone around the world couldn't get enough..
Michael Jackson - Man in the Mirror It's very good aswell
It’s unbelievable that a human like MJ existed in my short lifetime. 1000 years from now NOBODY will ever come close.
I saw MJ in concert in 1993,the only time he visited my country,Argentina,at the River Plate Stadium in Buenos Aires with the Dangerous Tour. The thing about his shows was that they were a complete spectacle,not just someone performing songs,he was also a phenomenal dancer,accompanied by other dancing phenomena and with a tight band with some of the best musicians you could find. It was a powerful and emotional show in many ways,coupled with the incomparable charisma of the King of Pop. He would bring fans on stage and they would really lost control. No one will ever be able to replace him.
¡Que envidiaaaaa! Saludos a los Argentinos❤
@@euniceaguilar2140 saludos!🖐
The best story about this song is while performing where Princess Diana would be, he took this song out to not offend her. Princess Diana was disappointed because this was her favorite song.
I think the weekend is literally studying Michael Jackson's playbook, and I love it. The dirty diana cover is quite good. No one will ever replace Michael jackson, but if an artist can appreciate the true visual and artistic nature of MJ, I'll definitely tune into see. Michael once said, "Never stop studying the greats," and it's obvious the weekend studies, jackson.. btw good reaction 👍
Oh BTW it's a staged concert just like give into me.
His most attractive era!
And my personal favorite track by him❤❤
Michael Jackson was so iconic, he was and forever will be a Legend. I hate it when people say things about how something is fake because they think everyone has to have seen something but all people are different and from different places or life styles. I'm just happy to see you guy enjoy MJ. I found out about MJ when he passed away in 2009. I was 11 and until that day I had thought he was 1 of 3 Michael Jackson's lol, turned out he was all 3. So the day I fell in love with MJ, was sadly the day he died. - If you like the feel of Dirty Diana then check out the song and music video for the Beatles cover he did for *Come Together*, it kinda had the same feel. Great reaction guys!
"She said he's not coming back, because he's sleeping with me!" is the most lyrics ever! 😂 The words, the plot twist, the drama, the delivery - everything's top notch!
This was a staged video, but if I remember correctly this was filmed while he was already on tour, so there was no time for elaborate production and the woman in the video is Sheryl Crow, who was one of his back-up vocals on tour.
Michael ha fatto tutto gli stili musicali ...e amava molto la classica...non era solo Pop.., molto, molto di piu'! Nessuno come lui😢
The guitar player is Steve Stevens from Billy Idol"s band.
MJ will always be the GOAT
He was simply one of the most entertaining and talented people of all time, across all generations. R.I.P MJ. Your legacy rages strong... thank you.
There is only one King of Pop! I'll always be a Michael Jackson fan. I was pretty young when I first heard Dirty Diana (the song had already been out for several years). I wasn't entirely suprised because if you listen to his albums, every song has a different creative style, tone, cadence, tempo and beat. I feel like Janet Jackson's (his sister) Black Cat was more of a suprise to me because of the rock tempo that is way different than her usual upbeat, R&B, pop and soul. Legendary artists and well created songs that will never be forgotten. Great reaction y'all!
man Michael could move!!
He died when I was 15 or so , and it’s just now when I’m 30 I kinda rediscovered his music. I wish he was still here , to know he is out there alive… did not appreciate it back in my teen years. Anyways , thank God for YT and all those amazing clips I can play on repeat ❤
Great explanation how public opinion shaped trough media and sheer enjoyment of tearing down such icons. I glad you are so open minded and give him a chance. I hope you'll do so much more. For example "Bad" full version is probably Michaels best acting, chills. Chills.
shawty was chilling. As soon as she seen MJ she brightened up lmao aint nothiing about Michaels impact changed.
There are so many great songs by M.J. but this one hit me hard since the first time I heard it :) I just love the feel of it.
Grew up with Michael and The Jackson Five from the late 60’s, thru his solo.
This is ABSOLUTELY one of my favorite songs of his, dirty, gritty.
Let’s face it… what man doesn’t like a “Dirty Diana”? 😜
Legendary.
Michael Jackson is the only one that can pass off having no big muscles but still get so many girls of all kinds
"Off the wall" album is excellent. The last album for the jackson 5 was "Destiny"....GREAT LISTEN.
Check out "Give in to me" by MJ. You gonna love it and it sounds like this.
If you grew up in the 70’s and 80’s you have a totally different perspective on MJ. For much of my childhood he was the most famous person on earth.
Yes Motown 1983 ! We all tried to moonwalk❤😂
This was a video that was shot in a warehouse, to look like a concert.
You also need to hear some of his songs with the Jackson Five to appreciate his gifts. A great entertainer.
I saw him live in Gothenburg 88, it was MAGIC!
This is my absolute favorite MJ song. I love that Steve Steven played on this track.
If you like this gritty sound I'd recommend 'Blood on the Dance Floor.' And 'Scream' with his sister Janet.
This was about Diana Ross. one of my fav. parts is when he sheds the shirt.
You have to see his “smooth criminal”. Michael Jackson was known for not only being the king of pop for his music but for his videos. They were masterpieces. Smooth criminal has a true movie video that went with his moonwalker film and it’s one of my personal favourites.
What a Great Reaction; Would Love to see You React to Michael Jackson Superbowl performance; I think You would Love it .🔥🔥🔥
Great reaction guys! My favourite track off of Bad...hands down. It's raw, rocking...and shall I say it...DIRTY!!
Thriller (the whole album) will always be tops for me, but this album was an amazing follow up! RIP MJ.
I'm 65 so I knew him as I kid. I liked the Osmonds. I like his older song man in the mirror.
I think he first did the moonwalk at the Grammy's. It was the most electric performance we had ever seen.
Michael Jackson performed his iconic moonwalk on March 25 , 1983 during his performance at the Motown 25. I was 15 and it completely blew everyone away. Even Gene. Kelly called him and told him that he had just created history with his performance and said that it was the most incredible thing that he had ever seen!!!
I remember watching that tv special and it was totally awesome!🤩🤩
One of his best music videos is Remember The Time. Epic on the scale of Thriller and had Eddie Murphy, Imam ( David Bowie's wife) and Magic Johnson (the basketball player) in it.
MJ has said that this song was written about what they called "groupies" in the 70's.
You should watch his Beatles cover of "Come Together". Classic!
That shi way better than the original
Steve Stevens🤘This is my favourite MJ performance. It's cool and different. So glad I got to be a teen and young adult in the 80s. Had the best music. No social media cancer. No helicopter parents tracking my every move. What a time to be young. Also, we had the best hair 😂
Thank you for the first 6mins you gave us to explain about how both of you discovered MJ's music. I can totally relate to it-- I think I was about 15yo when Michael died. I always knew the name Michael Jackson and heard his classics, but there were really none in my surroundings who were totally big fans of him so I never really understand how big he was, as internet was still limited. My parents listen to his musics in the 70s when he was still in the Jackson 5 and during Off The Wall album. I was exposed to his earlier musics in those days but not afterwards. So in the early 2000s until his death, whenever the name Michael Jackson came up in media, I remember it was never really a good thing about him. They called him wacko jacko and it was just about (mostly) his trials at the time. My parents were not like, a big big fan, but I remember they sympathized so much about what happened with him. But I don't know why, I just never thought to dig more about him, probably I was into something else at the time, and I was just being indifferent because how the media portrayed him as this "weird guy" (which is very rude).
That-- until he died in 2009. I remember watching his memorial service with my family on TV (it was live on every national tv channel in my country at that time). I remember my mom said this when we watched the service, "Now, that is the King of Pop. Nobody will ever do the same like he did." And the next day, I sat in front of my computer, went on TH-cam and discovered Thriller for the first time. That-- until now, as I discovered more and more about his musics, his legacy, his talents, his humanity; make me think that no entertainer can do it like Michael, ever again.
People misunderstood him very much just because he 'looked diffferent' and mysterious. Even any artists today would kill for privacy. And as an enjoyer of arts, I don't think it's our business to know about the artists' private lives. Anyway, in Michael's case, I know he was innocent for all the charges being charged to him at the time and will always be. Of course he had flaws, he's just human after all, but I think what we can do now is to learn from what has happened and don't let things like that happen again in today's generation. MJ is a legend and forever will be missed 💛
P.S. Sorry for the long comment (I think this is my first time leaving a comment this long in someone's youtube channel 😂) However, love your reaction and yes, react to more MJ, please! 👑
Every race & country loved Michael Jackson. He was Babe Ruth, Michael Jordan, and Elvis all rolled into 1. He ruled the world for a decade. Im fortunate to have been a kid in his prime. MJ had no competition.
You really need to watch his video the official music video for The Earth Song by Michael Jackson. So powerful. It was almost like he was predicting the future. Really moving. Check it out. By far one of his best songs.
More Micheal Please!
Thanks for being so honest and telling your story with MJ! Michael did so many styles ... you might like GIVE IN TO ME featuring SLASH!
