MJ- does it again- Voted the BEST music video of the 80s
MJ- does it again- Voted the BEST music video of the 80s
Mike does it again!!! Michael jackson's video "Thriller" topped the online poll of the top 10 videos of the 80s.

MTV is celebrating it's 30 year anniversary. So, Billboard.com had a poll of the top 10 BEST videos of the 80s, 90s, and 2000s. You can still vote for the best videos of the 2000s.

This is a review of an article written by Jessica Letkemann. I absolutely love her words and the adulation and respect she seems to have for MJ. I love when Mike is being appreciated...Don't you??? Anyway, here it is enjoy!!!

by: Jessica Letkemann -

"If the Video Music Awards had existed in 1983, MTV would have had to practically create a category just for the culture-dominating ingeniousness of "Thriller." It's little wonder that the video was up for several VMAs even a year later when the awards show kicked off. And almost 30 years after the MJ's epic horror-movie-style ghouls and zombies grooved and paraded into the hearts of music lovers, it's still tops with Billboard.com's voters, capturing a whopping 65% of the vote in our poll. He's not just the King of Pop, he's the king of music videos, too".

Here are the rest of the results:

1. Thriller - Michael Jackson
2.Like a Prayer- Madonna
3.Girls Just Wanna Have Fun- Cyndi Lauper
4.Take on Me- a-ha
5.When Doves Cry- Prince
6.Sledgehammer- Peter Gabriel
7.Hungry Like a Wolf- Duran Duran
8.Walk This Way- Run-DMC and Aerosmith
9.Every Breath You Take- The Police
10.Rhythm Nation- Janet Jackson

MJ the "KING of Music" videos, Jessica Letkemann couldn't have said it better.

Ok I know a lot of you fans don't know how to moonwalk and want to learn am I right? Well here are instructions on how to moonwalk :D


The moonwalk is a dance technique that presents the illusion of the dancer being pulled backwards while attempting to walk forward. Now start with putting foot#1 on its toes and by putting all of your weight on that foot. While leaning on foot#1, slide foot#2 backward. Next, put foot#2 on its toes and put your weight on that foot while making foot#1 flat on the floor. While all of your weight os on foot#2, slide foot #1 backward. And just keep trading positions like that. Repeat, repeat, repeat... And in the words of MJ "Don't stop 'til you get enough"



*No guarantee that you will be as good as MJ*
*Sorry if these instructions aren't clear but it's the best description I can give :)*
Today on the American television show appeared two of the Bodyguards of Michael Jackson and talked about their lives next to the king of pop.

In statements made by changing what people knew about him until now.

They claimed that they believe what the singer sounds, words that had relationships with young boys because they themselves were those who accompanied him to various appointments with many girls.

This information certainly does not know if it is of course a lot of changes.

And for those who know greek they can go and read it from the official site where i found it.

Sun is gonna shine

'Cause it's not
Our world we can just jack

He got your number peeped
Your disease
He knows your falling,

I don't need no dreams when I'm by your side, ooo
Every moment takes me to paradise
Darlin' let me hold you
I'll warm you in my arms and melt your fears away
Show you, all the magic that a perfect love can make
I need you night and day

So baby, be mine (Baby, you gotta be mine)
And girl I'll give you all I got to give
So baby, me my girl (All the time)
And we can share this ecstacy
As long as we believe in love, ooo

I won't give you a reason to change your mind

You are all the future that I desire
Girl, I need to hold you

Michael Jackson carried so much hope and light for the world. Through his beautiful voice, amazing dance, and tireless devotion to others, God worked miracles through Michael Jackson.

However, his neglected childhood would become the catalyst to multi faceted complexities that would combust in a lifetime of struggle. Many never realized and do not take the time to understand that Michael was truly a child at heart. Michael never experienced a childhood. He never enjoyed the years that would teach him the many things he would later need in life. And by his own admission, he over compensated for...

"My heart ... my mind ... are broken. I loved Michael with all my soul and I can't imagine life without him. We had so much in common and we had such loving fun together. I was packing up my clothes to go to London for his opening when I heard the news. I still can't believe it. I don't want to believe it. It can't be so. He will live in my heart forever but it's not enough. My life feels so empty. I don't think anyone knew how much we loved each other. The purest most giving love I've ever known. Oh God! I'm going to miss him. I can't yet imagine life without him. But I guess with God's help ... I'll learn. I keep looking at the photo he gave me of himself, which says, 'To my true love Elizabeth, I love you forever.' And, I will love HIM forever," Dame Elizabeth tells ET.
He gives another smile, tries to understand her side
To show that he cares
She can't stay in the room, She's consumed with everything that's been goin' on
She says

[Chorus]
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand

Everything will be alright, he assures her
But she doesn't hear a word that he says
Preoccupied, she's afraid
Afraid that what they're doing is not right
He doesn't know what to say, so he prays
Whatever, whatever, whatever

[Chorus]
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
Whatever happens, don't you let go of my hand

I'm Gonna Make A Change,
For Once In My Life
It's Gonna Feel Real Good,
Gonna Make A Difference
Gonna Make It Right . . .

As I, Turn Up The Collar On My
Favourite Winter Coat
This Wind Is Blowin' My Mind
I See The Kids In The Street,
With Not Enough To Eat
Who Am I, To Be Blind?
Pretending Not To See
Their Needs
A Summer's Disregard,
A Broken Bottle Top
And A One Man's Soul
They Follow Each Other On
The Wind Ya' Know
'Cause They Got Nowhere
To Go
That's Why I Want You To
Know

I'm Starting With The Man In
The Mirror
I'm Asking Him To Change
His Ways
And No Message Could Have
Been Any Clearer
If You Wanna Make The World...

Hold my hand, feel the touch of your body cling to mine
You and me, makin’ love all the way through another night
I remember you and I walking though the park at night
Kiss and touch, nothing much, let it blow just touch and go

Love me more, never leave me alone by house of love
People talk, people say what we have is just a game
Oh, I’ll never let you go, come here girl
Just got to make sweet love ‘til the break of dawn

I don’t want the sun to shine I wanna make love
Is this magic in your eyes and in my heart
I don’t know what I’m gonna do I can’t stop lovin’ you
I won’t stop...

Butterflies

All you gotta do is
Walk away and pass me by
Don't acknowledge my smile
When I try to say hello to you, yeah

And all you gotta do is
Not answer my call when I'm tryin' to get through
Keep me wonderin' why
When all I can do is sigh, I just wanna touch you

I just wanna touch and kiss
And I wish that I could be with you tonight
'Cause you give me butterflies
Inside, inside and I

All I got to say is
That I must be dreamin', can't be real
You're not here with me
Still, but I can feel you near to me

I caress you, let you taste and
Just so blissful, listen
I would give you anything, babe
Just make my dream...

Once all alone
I was lost in a world of strangers
No one to trust
On my own, I was lonely
You suddenly appeared
It was cloudy before
Now it's all clear
You took away the fear
And you brought me back to the light

[Chorus]
You are the sun
You make me shine
Or more like the stars
That twinkle at night
You are the moon
That glows in my heart
You are my daytime my nighttime

My world
You are my life

Now I wake up everyday
With this smile upon my face
No more tears, no more pain
‘Cause you love me
You help me understand
That love is the answer
to all that I am
And I'm a better man
Since you taught me by sharing your love

[Chorus]

You gave me strength
When I wasn't strong
You gave me hope when
All hope was lost
You opened my eyes
When I couldn't see
Love was always here
Waiting for me

Suicide father of the child who accused Michael Jackson of sexual harassment! The Evan Chandler-whose son Jordy was 13 when they claimed (in 1993) that the king of pop the "advantage" - was found dead in his bed, holding a gun, a bullet has penetrated his head. He was 65.

The removal of his own life (probably because no one can be sure) comes five months after the death of Michael Jackson. The police even said: "We felt that it is suicide, as he found himself holding a gun in his hands."

However, the notorious case never reached that time in court since Jordy got no inconsiderable sum of 22...

At the end of 1994, Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley made their first television appearance together at the MTV Movie Awards, where Michael collected an award for “Will You Be There”. Michael was soon back in the studio during 1994 to create his new album.

On the 23rd of February 1995 Michael gave a special preview of some of the songs off the forthcoming album to the National...

In the days just before his death, Michael Jackson was working harder than he ever had in hopes of staging “the greatest show on Earth” according to our latest cover story.

Claire Hoffman retraced the pop icon’s final moments for “The Last Days of Michael Jackson” in the latest issue of Rolling Stone, and found that Jackson was well aware of how the public came to perceive him in recent years and that he had fully dedicated himself to a comeback tour that he hoped would erase that perception.

“He wanted people to see his work and not just talk about his lifestyle,” AEG CEO Randy...

I don't like it, baby
When you're stopping me on the floor
'Cause the more I keep on dancing
The more I keep wanting some more


I don't care what you're saying
You're talking in my ear much too loud
And the music's taking my body
On a trip from nine to five


Keep me dancing all night
All night, all night


Gonna dance up fire
Calling engine number 109
There ain't no chains to hold me
Gonna burn this place down till five


You can't stop this fever
'Cause my temperature is burning hot
And all I wanna do is dance, dance
Sweating from my face to my feet


Keep me dancing all night
Keep me dancing all night
Keep me dancing all night
Keep me dancing all night
