Your Favorite Michael Jackson Memories?

Question: Your Favorite Michael Jackson Memory.

I really should have posted this one on a weekend cause I think I might get a couple of responses.

But as the clock struck 2009 we came into our 40th year with Michael Jackson and his issues. (I Want You Back hit radio in December 69 from the LP Diana Ross Presents The Jackson Five)

Unfortunately MJ’s behavior has forced me to separate his talent from what I think of him as a person. According to people like Dick Gregory and Eddie Murphy, Mike’s as cool as we all think he would be.

What concerns me however, is his serious denial in regards to healthy and proper relations with little boys and the culture in which we live. If he has not already harmed someone’s child, I fear he may actually kill or hurt someone before he gets help.

But this blog ain’t about that.

This blog asks you to discuss your favorite Michael Jackson moments of so many over the years. Please don’t go too far into the Jackson’s/Jackson Five stuff because I’d like to do a blog on that another time. Of course when you mention Mike the J-5 are not that far behind. So here are like 10 of my favorite MJ moments in no order at all.

10. I crack my brand new copy of Off The Wall (My fave MJ LP) and put the cassette in the deck. The base line comes on to Don’t Stop Til You Get Enough and DAM, DAM, DAM!!!!! I ain’t had enough yet.

9. ABC is released. The title cut from The J-5’s second LP (my fave Jackson 5 disc) and I only ask my cousin to play this record like 7 million times. This was my generations Chicken Noodle Soup or Lip Gloss.

8. The Jackson Five Cartoon

7. MJ-Jacksons smash Donnie Osmonds’ Family ( I met Donnie though and he’s mad cool but he got smashed.)

6. Four Words..WE ARE THE WORLD

5. I Wanna be Where You Are…My favorite Motown Michael Jackson Record

4. BET releases the special long version of Billie Jean from The Victory Tour and you get an idea that Michael is kind of a super star now.

3. It’s 1982 I’m telling people that I think Off The Wall was a better LP but MJ has a decent album about to drop called Thriller…lol.

2. MJ Smashes the color barrier on MTV when Billie jean becomes the first video by a black person to play on MTV.

1. MOTOWN 25. All we talked about in school that whole week was Michael’s Billie Jean! I haven’t stopped talking about this performance since the night it aired.

Well I still didn’t discuss Mike and Wesley in the Bad video…hilarious. Or a host of other moments and performances. What are your faves?
