Michael Jackson

Unread post by montiac » Mon Apr 28, 2003 8:58 pm

so i was watching my bro's skate video and i heard Michael Jackson's Billie Jean in the soundtrack...i thought to myself, "whoa, i must get some michael jackson stuff!" i used to be a huge fan of his when i was little, but i got out of that phase. the guitar in his songs is so AWESOME and FUNKY! and there's a ripping guitar solo at the end of Beat It...there's also some awesome guitar riffing near the middle/end of "Wanna Be Starting Somethin"...WHO ELSE HERE THINKS MICHAEL JACKSON IS THE SHIT!??!?!?!?!

i have admittedly loved michael jackson's work for some time....especially his dancing. how can someone watch him dance and not forget all the other shit associated with him?

Michael Jackson will forever in my book be the smoothest man that ever graced the face of the earth with his feet. The man can do things with this body that most would never dream of. Only problem.......he does it with 10 year olds. Thats just gross. Old Michael.......awsome. Recent Michael.......ewwwww.

is that a serious question? he has vitiligo disease, which changes the pigment of the skin. most of the time, though, it only occurs in patches. so actually he should still have patches of brown skin left. but he uses make up to cover up those spots.
