@@eph_loves_80s74 He wrote like 4 songs on Thriller. He took the creative control on Bad and he was at the top of his game during that period both as Musician and performer.
I feel like his biggest mistake was not being transparent about his appearance. There would've been less backlash had he brought up his vitiligo from the start. You can't be THAT huge and undergo that drastic of a change, and expect absolutely no commentary on it.
True, I knew he wanted to be private and quiet but he was officially diagnosed in 1986 after he already started showing signs way back, I believe. I wish he could've did press conference or something on his condition and why he covered it with makeup, I swear if he announced it then rather than 1993, there would be no jokes or nothing. People wouldn't have questioned his condition. I wish he could've did something cause I know people who just surprised at his drastic change. People just saw him in the Thriller and WATW era and now is coming in the Bad Era and they are just wondering what went on with him. It's not like this man was out there also, he took a BIG HIATUS. 🤣 He hasn't been seen like that in those almost 3 years except some side projects and appearances in 1986 and even then you could see the changes. I mean it still doesn't give people the right to call him such names, mock his appearance and be ignorant in general but people were just puzzled. But also as well, this man doesn't owe anyone or anybody an interview but I just wish he was direct about what happened. Maybe people would've had some sympathy for him and his condition.
I love MJ just like the next fan but let's be real, it wasn't just his skin, it was his eyebrows, nose, chin etc. MJ developed body dymorphia, much like Khloe Khardashian, from taunting from family and fans. I don't doubt that he had vitiligo because I saw pics of him with it but he used that as permission to change himself entirely. I always say he should've stopped during his Bad era. He still looked black and was real sexy.
Bad’s greatest achievement is Michael Jackson’s blooming creativity; not only did he co-produce the entire album but he also wrote nine of the final 11 songs. Writing for Albumism, Chris Lacy wrote "Comparisons with Off the Wall and Thriller are unimportant, except for this one: Bad is a pure pop masterpiece that stands parallel with-and, at times, eclipses-its classic predecessors" And 33 years after this album’s release, and 11 years since his passing, the whole world still has to answer right now: Who’s BAD?👊
Indeed, even though he had more involving in Thriller than it seemed. Writing by himself 4 of the 9 songs (I count a 5th one, P.Y.T., since in the album version he had some contributions (for instance, the lyrics) even though it was mostly by Jones and Ingram. He deserves a credit for that one too) and arranging his vocals (the completely arranged the vocals for the 4 songs he fully wrote and he even collaborated with Temperton to arrange his vocal performances on the songs the Englishman wrote).
Wow! I’m honored you found this snippet of my ‘Bad 30’ tribute and shared it on here. I stand by that statement. ‘Bad’ is a musical Halloween. Each track shows us an artist at play in his creative toy box, throwing on different styles and personas.
@@eph_loves_80s74 I agree with you. To clear up any confusion: I never said ‘Bad’ was Michael’s greatest achievement. When I wrote that article in 2017, I was saying the album’s greatest achievement was MJ’s creative growth. It seemed like many people obsessed over sales and chart success when that’s not the end-all-be-all in musical discussions.
This man MICHAEL JACKSON was so attacked by the media newspapers making false accusations against him mainly the BAD album cover bleaching his skin, newspapers and media tried badly to bring him down unfortunately it failed bcuz people still went n buy his music which says it all his the KING OF POP and that will NEVER CHANGE
Yes, we humans sure did him dirty. He didn't deserve it, he deserved much better. He did an awesome career in music and fame but the rest of his life was lonely, scared, helpless and sad. If someone deserved to life a normal life, it was Michael.
@@ohrapelto8955 well said, he stayed strong in those moments of his life, he was lonely and battled loneliness, his now in a better place where he doesn't have to worry
I wish people were more considerate, there’s only much one can take.. Michael was human, he was sensitive about what was being said about him & it hurt him a lot. Sometimes people need to learn how to put themselves in other’s people shoes and treat others like they want to be treated. Besides all of their unwanted negativity, he did amazing on tour and he just owned everything 😍 I would love to have experienced seeing him live! 😭❤️
Well said, he was a magical dancer and singer but still just a human like we all are. I wish he had a better life down here when he was alive. I'm sure he's in a better place now.
I really wish Michael had opened up about his vitiligo in 1986 or 1987, he probably then would've went through less bs with the media. They probably would've made some other things up anyway.
In the 80s being the biggest star on the planet I fully understand why he bleached out his skin so he didn’t look blotchy & patchy because of the Vitiligo. Nowadays it wouldn’t be a problem, back then the media would have just called him a freak. They called him that anyway unfortunately. All the people who called him a freak couldn’t do what he could though. He was better & more successful in this made up world of success than almost everybody. It’s sad he couldn’t see his own beauty inside & out. He would have never been satisfied no matter how many surgeries or albums he sold. Joseph scarred him from young with the beatings & abuse. He never recovered from it. Even in 2003 when he speaks about it, you can tell it still affected him. He was brilliant though. My mum see him at Wembley In 88 as a 17 year old. She’s been to about 200 concerts and she always tells me that MJ was the best she ever see live.
@@TYler-dn2pmthat’s true but as a public figure, not answering why your skin color looks drastically different than a few years ago is gonna lead to rumors and Michael should have been aware of that by then. You can chalk that up due to lack of internet to look up what vitiligo is tho
To be fair, the Japanese public for the first leg of the Bad tour, got the Victory tour show with "Bad" being the only song off the album being performed.
@@michaeladonis08 not only "Bad", "I Just Can't Stop Loving You" was also in the set list. I think also vocally the Japan shows were the finest live performances of his career - every song was live, smooth and pitch perfect, all whilst gliding and grooving on stage with ease.
People talk about Thriller and ofcause Thriller is still to this day the biggest selling album of Michael Jackson. Its motivating and incredible but my personal favorite is "BAD" and I am obsessed with it. BAD have a lot of beautiful singles which are really catchy, trending and sensational I must say. BAD is my all time favorite album of Michael Jackson. I love all the songs of Bad. Really miss this great giant incredible artist a lot. But thankfully his legacy is still on and its a blessing from God. Lots of love MJ 💘
@@Ian-hj4yt it really is other than him wearing alternative/rocker style clothes his appearance is basically the same with longer curls and his skin changing due to the skin condition
1987: His new album "Bad" came out, Shocked what happened to his appearance for the first time that he was on tour without his brothers and yet the world continued to marvel with his art. For me my second best MJ album after Off The Wall. Def the King💯
“Performing machine?” More like just a human. That’s the problem people saw him as just entertainment. He was a human and he got drained and tired just like anyone who works long hard hours.
I used to cry to my mother as a baby to take me to Michael Jackson,even watching this right now is making me cry,I WAS OBSSESSED.I would NEVER stop being a fan.
Michael is the most talented artist in the world. He has such a soft, humble, loving and caring soul. I love him forever. He has been and will be innocent forever and ever!
Michael was pure, maybe too pure for this world. People did him dirty, tried to push him down and even destroy him. At least he can rest in peace now. He deserves it.
@@ohrapelto8955 Somebody said, they broke his wings and then they killed him. But now, the a accusers publicly shamed, disgraced and dehumanized him. I don't know if he can rest in Peace. In my opinion Michael needs first justice and all people involved in LN deserves a penalty. I think then Michael can R.I.P.
My day met him in 1987. He was on tour in Sydney, Australia and my dad worked for CBS Records. There was a boat party in honour of the success for the ‘Bad’ album and Michael was in attendance for a show period of the time and everyone got in line to shake hands with Michael and my dad was one of them. Safe to say I was completely shocked when he told me this around the time of Michael’s death.
@mikel waxon I am chill lol ,it was just a dull question really. It's like saying as if he never looked better before in his life while in actuality always have been attractive from birth till the end. But beauty is in the eye of the beholder i guess..?
@@duncan3998 I don't know, I don't really like how he looked in his last 10 years or so, it made me sad seeing him that way. He didn't look good at all, he looked like things were getting to him and he was becoming unhealthy. It's hard to think back on, knowing how much he was suffering at the time.
Me as a fan of Michael,I am proud of all he has accomplished in life...I will always love and support all he continues to do...god bless you sweetheart and thank god you are alive...
@Migel I think he meant for others to treat him with kindness, or to have forgiveness because he was suffering.. Maybe he meant that not everyone has perfect lives and you just have to be patient with some people. that's my opinion though 😭
Bad era was MJ at his peak as a performer and where he truly became a global icon. Thriller sold more units in the US by a huge margin but in other parts of the world like the UK the difference was almost non existent also he crossed over into other forms of media like video games/movies during this time and crucially the Victory Tour (the Thriller tour in all but name) never left the US whereas the Bad Tour was a worldwide phenomenon that shattered records. Even though I was introduced to MJ just after Blood on the Dance Floor was released whenever I picture MJ in my mind it's always in his Bad era incarnation and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
@Thriller82 J oh wow you again lol.......when the BAD ALBUM came out it made him a global icon especially when he toured overseas so get it together.....I’m about to change my name to BAD87 Lmaoo
@Thriller82 J no your an idiot when he traveled during the Bad Tour to different countries he became a global icon the hype of the bad tour was huge. He became bigger than life during that tour so stop hating and trust me I know way MJ than you I guarantee that
@Thriller82 J and your the jackass that thinks he knows MJ stuff but doesn’t you just hyped over the sales and not even listening to the music. Your a fake fan and thriller fan cause of records it sold but die hard fans know what his best album is and you are not one of them loser
Are any of you guys white? The reason why I’m asking this is simply because alot of y’all just don’t get it, you cannot undergo surgery and have a skin change and not expect people to speak about it
@@therealzdeal5630 Michael doesn't have to open up about his medical conditions. He had vitiligo. He got light spots on his skin, the spots get bigger and bigger. He did what everybody is doing with such a condition. A dermatologist is trying to make the dark spots lighter and then cover up the dark spot and blend it with makeup so that the skin tone is even. That is a common treatment for vitiligo. He had surgery on his nose and sculp anything else were fillers. Restylane, Juvederm are general treatments for actors and pop stars. And by the way, he looked always great. He had good beauticians and facialists. And by the way Michael was an artist. Artists are always changing their looks, they have to stay attractive if they want to continue their career.
@@dinabowing4963 right I never said Michael has to open up about his medical condition, so let me stop you right there. your clearly missing the point, eliminate the fact you love him, deal with common sense. If you undergo surgery and a skin change, you are going to receive backlash it’s that simple. Michael needs to stay attractive? "They have to stay attractive if they want to continue their career" So your saying him Europeanising his facial features makes him attractive? instead of keeping his natural African facial features?, so him being naturally who he is isn’t good enough he has to look European now? are you kidding me? People like you need to be done away with
@@analezaone530 He is not hating I was a teen during the 1980s and Michael Jackson during 1983/1984 was way bigger than 1987/1988 Michael Jackson, So he is not hating
Not only just the king of pop, a king in general, king of the world. No matter where you visit, local people will know his name and status. That is true power and fame. No other artist has ever been as popular as he is even right now.
Ephraim Nana Antwi light skin? No, it didn't even cross my mind... I love Michael from his birth to death, I just especially love bad era and I will love him till the day I die.
@@eph_loves_80s74 Wyd?! Lightskin or Darkskin MJ's whole aesthetic was 🔥🔥🔥 Yeah Thriller, Dangerous, and the other Era's were cool but this one is just a whole other level of badass. The Hair, The Buckles, The Punk theme he brought was just so Badass. Smooth Criminal Outfit, Speed Demon outfit, Bad Tour (88') Silver Outfit. Pretty much all his outfits from this era were 🔥🔥🔥. Stop saying we like it because of his skin color.
@@eph_loves_80s74 I said it was because of his outfits not his skin color. Change Bad era MJ's skin blue, white, or black it's the most aesthetically pleasing imo, BUT NOT BECAUSE OF HIS SKIN COLOR.
@@eph_loves_80s74 From the looks of your comment it looks like you have a grudge against the era's where MJ had lighter skin. And I know he had extensions on, that pepsi incident ruined his natural hair.
Ephraim Nana Antwi Nope , I guess you misinterpreted my comment. At first I started to love Michael as humanitarian and then I love him as an entertainer, singer, dancer and so on...
The year that people thought MJ bleached his skin cause Vitiligo..😞. But i don't care what they think, MJ is an amazing person who helped a lot of people on Earth.
People still keep being mean and saying he just bleached himself when the truth is he was forced to do so because the skin disorders he had. Not a nice thing to happen and I feel bad for him. I wish many other people would feel it too.
His on and off stage personas are so different, it's incredible. When his on stage he just comes alive and it's just brilliant!! Fantastic video. Well done.
U can tell he wasn’t chasing money or fame that shit means nothing all he wanted was some fucking happiness but ending up just making the world happy and they still shitted on em
Michael wanted to make peace and love. He made good songs with raw meanings and gave plenty of money to charity. He was a good man. The best artist ever lived.
I'm absolutely inspired by this man. Whatever extra pennies I have will go to someone in need. I'll work an extra shift, a few extra hours, whatever it takes to help someone.
And so the monumental task of beating thriller began. How do you beat the greatest album of all time? Nobody will ever know the pressure he must of been under. R.I.P mike
Honestly I think he got hotter and hotter as he aged I don’t care bout his skin color or hair like tf people are picky af this man doesn’t know you chill🤣
he was literally the king of the world in these times! his level of fame is unimaginable, absolutely the most influential entertainer ever! I wish I was there in '80s to witness this greatness😭
Favourite era. Favourite album. Favourite tour. ONE OF MY FAVOURITE VIDEOS! Thanks for your job man, I appreciete it! I will always support you! With love, L. O. V. E. ❤️
I wish he talked about the world of what happened to his face that year. Bcs it would a different from the media & ppls perspective at that time. I think it was a better era than the Thiller/Victory era when it comes to the Production ,Videos & Peformances (Especially on Bad Tour) .It’s just crazy how that Album didn‘t get a Grammy. He was on another level. Love U Btw MJ👑
These little rumors from the tabloids ain’t nobody give a fuck about everybody still loved Michael and showed probably even MORE support if not the same amount he was already getting💙
Those newspaper headlines in the beginning people were really got crazy between that 5 year gap after Thriller when Mike went MIA. The anticipation for Bad must’ve been insane
Wow! This guy is beyond human, I think super natural or outside power was involved with him. But wow you could spend your life studying this intriguing character and the REAL man Michael Jackson behind the legend
I would like to be back in time to year 1987....I wish could feel and experience the Michael Mania during that era....thats the best year for MJ. He's really Bad, Superstadom, Global Man. He's the man of the 80's, nobody could reach his top.

@Thriller82 J oh wow you again lol.......when the BAD ALBUM came out it made him a global icon especially when he toured overseas so get it together.....I’m about to change my name to BAD87 Lmaoo
@Thriller82 J no your an idiot when he traveled during the Bad Tour to different countries he became a global icon the hype of the bad tour was huge. He became bigger than life during that tour so stop hating and trust me I know way MJ than you I guarantee that
@Thriller82 J and your the jackass that thinks he knows MJ stuff but doesn’t you just hyped over the sales and not even listening to the music. Your a fake fan and thriller fan cause of records it sold but die hard fans know what his best album is and you are not one of them loser
*When all the BS talk started to become the forefront. When his looks were the main topic of conversation rather than his phenomenal music*
This is how weird this world is😒
Are any of you guys white? The reason why I’m asking this is simply because alot of y’all just don’t get it, you cannot undergo surgery and have a skin change and not expect people to speak about it
@@therealzdeal5630 Michael doesn't have to open up about his medical conditions. He had vitiligo. He got light spots on his skin, the spots get bigger and bigger. He did what everybody is doing with such a condition. A dermatologist is trying to make the dark spots lighter and then cover up the dark spot and blend it with makeup so that the skin tone is even. That is a common treatment for vitiligo. He had surgery on his nose and sculp anything else were fillers. Restylane, Juvederm are general treatments for actors and pop stars. And by the way, he looked always great. He had good beauticians and facialists.
And by the way Michael was an artist. Artists are always changing their looks, they have to stay attractive if they want to continue their career.
@@dinabowing4963 right I never said Michael has to open up about his medical condition, so let me stop you right there. your clearly missing the point, eliminate the fact you love him, deal with common sense. If you undergo surgery and a skin change, you are going to receive backlash it’s that simple.
Michael needs to stay attractive? "They have to stay attractive if they want to continue their career" So your saying him Europeanising his facial features makes him attractive? instead of keeping his natural African facial features?, so him being naturally who he is isn’t good enough he has to look European now? are you kidding me? People like you need to be done away with
@@therealzdeal5630 he dint undergo surgery dumbass.
The Thriller Album showed how big MJ was in America The Bad Album showed how big he was World Wide
@Thriller82 J Ohhhh it’s you again lol didn’t we go at it already about this 😂
@@frederickifill3107 😭😭😭 the haters are like flies won’t go away
@@analezaone530 He is not hating I was a teen during the 1980s and Michael Jackson during 1983/1984 was way bigger than 1987/1988 Michael Jackson, So he is not hating
@@therealzdeal5630 your opinion 😂.
@@therealzdeal5630 thriller was more successful but BAD MADE HIM BECOME more worldly successful because of the BAD TOUR FACTS
Too bad I wouldn’t born for another year. In my opinion this was when Michael Jackson was at his best.
Amen straight facts
I was born year earlier in 1986 before Bad Era.
@@amiehampton867 Still born in the Bad era 1985 - 1989
@@amiehampton867me too! And I actually remember this era well more pre dangerous those were great times too
How can you be on every damn video? Get out of here smark.
I love him so much😭 I Miss him
Human nature.
Michael Jackson was loved all around the world!🌎 Humanitarian an loved animals. He'll always be the "King of Pop"❤🎶🙂
Not only just the king of pop, a king in general, king of the world. No matter where you visit, local people will know his name and status. That is true power and fame. No other artist has ever been as popular as he is even right now.
The Bad album was most definitely Grammy worthy...
Rip Grammy! 🏆
It appears only the MJ fanatics share this sentiment.
@@live2diedie2liveagain78 anyone with a Brain*
@@mystic-db8546 So, by your logic or the logic of Moonwalkers, anyone that does not share your opinion of Michael Jackson does not have a brain?
@@mystic-db8546 well said, absolutely !
these videos from every year of Michael Jackson’s life are so good
You can't mess with the BAD ERA , mannnn , he is perfect, beautiful, talented, energetic and everything ❣️💖♥️
Ephraim Nana Antwi light skin? No, it didn't even cross my mind...
I love Michael from his birth to death, I just especially love bad era and I will love him till the day I die.
@@eph_loves_80s74 Wyd?! Lightskin or Darkskin MJ's whole aesthetic was 🔥🔥🔥 Yeah Thriller, Dangerous, and the other Era's were cool but this one is just a whole other level of badass. The Hair, The Buckles, The Punk theme he brought was just so Badass. Smooth Criminal Outfit, Speed Demon outfit, Bad Tour (88') Silver Outfit. Pretty much all his outfits from this era were 🔥🔥🔥. Stop saying we like it because of his skin color.
@@eph_loves_80s74 I said it was because of his outfits not his skin color. Change Bad era MJ's skin blue, white, or black it's the most aesthetically pleasing imo, BUT NOT BECAUSE OF HIS SKIN COLOR.
@@eph_loves_80s74 From the looks of your comment it looks like you have a grudge against the era's where MJ had lighter skin. And I know he had extensions on, that pepsi incident ruined his natural hair.
Ephraim Nana Antwi Nope , I guess you misinterpreted my comment. At first I started to love Michael as humanitarian and then I love him as an entertainer, singer, dancer and so on...
His voice while he speaks is divine
I love this series, please never stop! It's so detailed and it really makes you feel like you're at that time. Oh man I wish I lived in the 80s...
Same I love creating these 🔥
No. They didn’t have UA-cam lol
Is he sick, scared or smart? Answer: Smart. Let's be honest BAD😎 was GOOOOD 💯👍✨✨✨✨.
You tell them lol
Bad was better than Thriller
@@frederickifill3107 you should add "in my opinion"
Alot can happen in one year...and if you can take advantage of your growth, you can reach incredible height
There was pretty much nothing else to touch MJ through out the entire 80s.... The decade that really did cement his status as the King of Pop....
The year that people thought MJ bleached his skin cause Vitiligo..😞.
But i don't care what they think, MJ is an amazing person who helped a lot of people on Earth.
People still keep being mean and saying he just bleached himself when the truth is he was forced to do so because the skin disorders he had. Not a nice thing to happen and I feel bad for him. I wish many other people would feel it too.
87 for me was the greatest MJ year. I'm so glad I was able to experience it!
His on and off stage personas are so different, it's incredible. When his on stage he just comes alive and it's just brilliant!! Fantastic video. Well done.
Thank you!!!
U can tell he wasn’t chasing money or fame that shit means nothing all he wanted was some fucking happiness but ending up just making the world happy and they still shitted on em
Michael wanted to make peace and love. He made good songs with raw meanings and gave plenty of money to charity. He was a good man. The best artist ever lived.
I've been waiting for this. Arguably his biggest year as a star
Bad Era was Micheals Prime.. love him, misss him
I'm absolutely inspired by this man. Whatever extra pennies I have will go to someone in need. I'll work an extra shift, a few extra hours, whatever it takes to help someone.
And so the monumental task of beating thriller began. How do you beat the greatest album of all time? Nobody will ever know the pressure he must of been under. R.I.P mike
Michael Jackson a beautiful soul and most criticized person in the media. His music will live on forever. Rest In Peace King of Pop.👑
In My Opinion, the best videos are from the Year of MJ❤️
Man, you will never, ever see a musical phenomenon like this again. Not in this lifetime.
As always, amazing content ! Thank you 💛💛
Thank you!
I love watching old clips about Michael Jackson.
That's the spirit ❤
Honestly I think he got hotter and hotter as he aged I don’t care bout his skin color or hair like tf people are picky af this man doesn’t know you chill🤣
💀
he was literally the king of the world in these times! his level of fame is unimaginable, absolutely the most influential entertainer ever! I wish I was there in '80s to witness this greatness😭
Favourite era. Favourite album. Favourite tour. ONE OF MY FAVOURITE VIDEOS! Thanks for your job man, I appreciete it! I will always support you! With love, L. O. V. E. ❤️
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it ✨
The fact that I’ll never see him perform live in concert is not sitting right with me and will never sit right with me.
When the hard work ethic of James Brown is in your blood, you have no choice but to be BAD.
Michael is always the only best every time little young man is always Michael Jackson the only best king of pop 🙏👑⭐️
And that was just the beginning. The next year(1988), the BAD Tour hits The States in February. More of that coming up on The Detail.
*This Man's talent was untouchable*
Michael Jackson THE GREATEST ENTERTAINER OF ALL TIMES 🙌🏽🙏🏽🤩❤🤎💖
He's missed ✌🏿🤞🏿🙌🏿💚💛
He was loved more outside of the US than in US .
No he wasn't so shut up no one loves Michael Jackson more than Americans
Filming the vid 4 Bad was a nightmare. He grinded so hard. This was when Vitaligo went to his face. Live on.
His popularity without internet 🙏🙏
Celebrities in general were more popular before the internet. The internet gave people more options to choose from.
Mj was the true legend and world entertainer of all time ☺️☺️☺️❤️love you Michael!!
I wish he talked about the world of what happened to his face that year. Bcs it would a different from the media & ppls perspective at that time.
I think it was a better era than the Thiller/Victory era when it comes to the Production ,Videos & Peformances (Especially on Bad Tour) .It’s just crazy how that Album didn‘t get a Grammy. He was on another level.
Love U Btw MJ👑
It's none of your business
One of the best selling artists of all time (period)
I think the most selling ever. He surely sold more than Elvis I think.
@@ohrapelto8955 maybe.
@@ohrapelto8955 he Is third, Beatles and Elvis sold More than him.
@@glenisclaribelcastilloguer6321 Wrong. Thriller is STILL the number selling album of all time. Do your research.
What a time to have been alive, I so wish I could've experienced this era!
I agree
I’ve been waiting for this year to come so the detail can make a video of it, to me this is Michaels best year music wise
Michael's voice was actually deep, he just talked with a soft voice
He hot this planet like a meteor. Unstoppable. . absolutely. Amazing talent . Have his all in everything. I miss him so much
Thriller to Bad it was more magical then ever. MJ is one of the biggest artist of all time. Especially in the 1980s. 🖤
MICHAEL was a music genius
Jeez at the start everyone was questioning him
Michael's face was PERFECT during the 1987-1988 Bad era! 🔥🔥🔥
This channel is better than his estate they don't even put up his music videos in 1080p
My favorite Michael Era. I always wondered how it would be to be alive at that time. Thank you for all the hard work with this UA-cam channel!
0:59 it seems so hard for any artist to explain their music video ideas and and make it happen
RIP MJ
These little rumors from the tabloids ain’t nobody give a fuck about everybody still loved Michael and showed probably even MORE support if not the same amount he was already getting💙
It was Micheal smile for me all the time. His smile just melts your heart. Whenever he smiled you could see him. Beautiful smile.
Those newspaper headlines in the beginning people were really got crazy between that 5 year gap after Thriller when Mike went MIA. The anticipation for Bad must’ve been insane
Wow! This guy is beyond human, I think super natural or outside power was involved with him. But wow you could spend your life studying this intriguing character and the REAL man Michael Jackson behind the legend
Thank you very much for this video. Been waiting for it for a long time. Awesome video!!!
MICHAEL JACKSON CHANGED THE WORLD FOREVER ALWAYS IN OUR ❤️👑❤️
What did he change about the world?
Love this MJ era! Love the others too but this is him at his peak, master of his craft, 20+ years in the making and it’s totally mystical!
Personally, I feel Michael should have stopped working with Pepsi after his hair got burnt.
I think it was just an accident, nothing could've been done to avoid it.
What is even sadder is that he stayed loyal.. but they cut the contract after the ‘93 allegations
@@GreenEyedChaos and after his death in 2012 when bad25 came out they put limited edition of pepsi can with his posters
Lime the name/pfp
Agreed!!
it’s quite eerie how much love Michael got…..
MY FAVORITE MJ ALBUM❤️🙌🏾HANDS DOWN‼️
This guy was public 24 hours man....like way before Instagram too
I wonder how public he would be now with social media...
Love his style and hair in this era
Me too
Off the Wall was like the mad scientist while Thriller was the Frankenstein. Bad was just Frankenstein without his creator.
Watching this makes me hate the media...
Im addicted to him😅😄most Japanese dont speak English but they understand and sing his songs😀.❤❤❤
I would like to be back in time to year 1987....I wish could feel and experience the Michael Mania during that era....thats the best year for MJ. He's really Bad, Superstadom, Global Man. He's the man of the 80's, nobody could reach his top.
I’ve watched this so many times
100 times for me 😂
Michael jackson most handsome 💖
