Michael Jackson’s iconic choreographies
“So when people say “he abuse”, that’s not true… That’s not true at all.”
You know something? If it’s one thing to hear people say such torturous things about Michael, I think it hurts the most that they’d say he would do something harmful towards a child. I’m not gonna pull out the “if you really knew Michael card” because truly at the end of the day, we only know what he’s told us. We were never there. We didn’t get to spend every waking day with him. And as a fan, when Michael spoke a about something important to him, I believe he said it with sincerity. From these gifs, you can see in his eyes and his expressions that when he’d talk of his past and even the present he was living in during this time frame, it had affected him in certain ways we may not even understand. But the thing about him is, he kept strong and that’s what I admire in him. I try to say to myself every day that if Michael could keep on a smile through such the hard times he had to endure, then why shouldn’t I.
“Oh God no. We had many talks about that (his looks). He had that inner light and he always considered himself to be extremely ugly. He said he’s not a handsome man. ‘That’s why I don’t do interviews and I don’t go on talk shows.’ He said ‘First of all, I don’t lead an interesting life, I work all of the time’ (and that’s what he did, he worked all of the time).
He never did really understand that he had that inner light.
Sitting and talking to Michael I would look into his eyes and I could see for 1,000 miles. He had these most incredible eyes. They come off good on film, but nothing like in person. When you’re actually sitting across there looking at him. Those eyes were unbelievable. There were times it would just stop me in my tracks and there were times I’d be around him where I’d kind of forget who he was and then it would dawn on me….’I’m sitting here next to Michael Jackson.’ I never really got over that. There were times he would do these quick little step things and they were like lightening. It was just so quick, so precise and just amazing.” - David Nordahl
Hating this day -_-
“Michael hates doing playback session for a record company.A playback session is a big meeting where we play back the new album mixes for the record company bigwigs.Therefore in the past years when these things were suggested,he just simply would not attend.However,Michael’s managers,SandyGallin and Jim Morey talked Michael into attending the one held for Sony executives to hear The HiSTory album for the first time at Larrabee North Studios in Hollywood.
I remember Michael was very reluctant.We were about 30 people,all seated in the main control room at Larrabee North Studios.Michael was there along with Macaulay Culkin.I was sitting with Michael,Mac,Sandy and Jim near the rear of the control room.The entire album was played - Michael’s incredible music.The last note sounded.All these geniuses from the record label simply got up and left the studio without saying a word! No applause,no comment,no reaction - I was absolutely mortified! How can people that are supposed to be in the record business be so dumb? Sandy Gallin was jumping up and down,and waving his arms and screaming at them, ‘Are you all brain dead?’ there were tears in Michael’s eyes! Bea,Michael and I went to the parking lot and got in my Big Bronco.Michael said to me ‘I’ll never do this again!’ “ Bruce Swedien
This just breaks my heart. :/ Just imagine the amount of love, time, sweat and tears Michael must have put into this album, and then to have it just brushed off and not appreciated..to a sensitive man that wrote what he felt & drove for perfection, that must have crushed him. I don’t know how anyone could turn away from this album, this masterpiece.
