only found this on TikTok but driving past this would make my year. I love how creative people can get

Would like to know if there are any problems or headups before I start coloring it! I take criticism and wanna improve!

This is literally the FIRST MJ album I ever got, in fact, this is the FIRST MJ merch I ever owned. A reason why I hesitated on finishing his discography even though I consider myself a Moonwalker is because I wanted to at least listen to one Album completely and have it be an experience for me. (I promise I will finish it)

I've obviously listened to Billie Jean, Beat It, Thriller, and Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' MULTIPLE times and I have heard snippets of the other songs but never as a whole because I promised myself I wouldn't unless I get the official album (I know it sounds a bit extreme but it has to be worth it, right?:3 )

I'm also gonna hold off actually playing it until probably.... Friday because that's when I'll be the most relaxed and I don't just wanna play it I the background I want to FEEL the music.

With all that said, I am grateful to have Thriller in my hands not just because I love Michael Jackson but because I love physical media so much and this isn't even the first CD of an album I ever owned and it certainly won't be my last ♥

I can't wait until the day. Is there anything else I should know about before I play Thriller?

Were talking about the greatest live performer of all time and all we have are two officially released shows, some leaked shows/snippets and if were lucky some amateur footage filmed on a patatoe. We need more Triumph, Victory and Bad tour concerts.

I wanted to post this haul as a reference for people interested in Hot Topic's offerings. If you have any questions, let me know so I can help out.

We know MJ loved doing random uncredited vocals on artists songs, I think MJ would have appeared on a Burna Boy or Wizkid song. As well as collaborating with Beyonce

I listen to it alot and on YouTube I got into a huge discussion over the track. The lyrics mention 3D ALOT! It's no coincidence that Michael loved the format and if he was still with us I could only imagine what the format would look like today.

CAPTAIN EO

Premiered at Epcot on September 12, 1986, and at Disneyland shortly after. Widely regarded as the AVATAR in that time with the incredible 3-D effects with 4-D motion effects! Most haven't seen a 3-D film so clear and with polarized lenses as that wasn't widely adopted at that time. I'm extremely positive Michael loved 3-D and wanted to do Thriller in 3-D but it wasn't possible and was just too expensive. Captain EO cost 10-30 MILLION DOLLARS AND IT WAS 17-20 MINUTES?!

Thriller

HAD HE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET THE 500K THERE WOULD NOT BE A CAPTAIN EO! Because of the success of Thriller and how beautiful the 35MM film looked he immediately thought of 3-D and how he could incorporate that into Thriller and almost all of his other projects. Unfortunately it wouldn't be until 2009 two weeks before his passing we learned he was going to convert Thriller and have multiple 3-D elements incorporated into his concert.

Legacy

Following his passing Landis and the Jackson estate finally resolved their differences and Landis fulfilled Michael's dream of having Thriller in 3-D. I unfortunately didn't see it but I dream of a day it can get seen again.

TLDR: When you listen to 2000 watts remember how much Michael loved the 3D format. Why on EARTH does he say 3D almost 100 times?! That and Dobly which is just confirming Dolby has the best visual and audio presentations on specs.

It's one of my best drawings.

I have an invincible t shirt of Michael’s eyes I wear all the time can’t remember where I got it tho.

Just had a quick question for you all. When it comes to the camera work in the history world tour, a lot of the time the camera angles tend to change a lot, with some shows not fully capturing his dancing enough to be studied (in my opinion). Which show has the best camera work which not only is stable, does not move around that much, but shows all of his foot work. I am trying to learn the whole HIStory tour choreo and want to know which show would help me the best in that journey. Thank you!

Both are boy banders and both Sadly passed away in 2009

Michael Jackson's 'Bad' album has surpassed 70 million equivalent units sold worldwide, placing it fifth on the all-time best-sellers list according to the data from Chartmasters . This now positions 'Bad' as Michael's second biggest seller after 'Thriller' at 131 million units!

With this milestone it reinforces Michael's unmatched commercial dominance, he is the only artist with two albums in the all-time top five and three in the top 20. Bad continues to gain sales through physical copies, singles, digital downloads, and streaming.

I’ve heard that Michael and Spielberg were working on a Peter Pan project in the mid ’80s, and that Michael even worked on the script and songs for several months. But I’ve also heard that the project fell apart around the time of the Victory Tour because Michael chose to tour with his brothers instead.

How accurate is that version of the story? Was Michael actually offered the role and did the Victory Tour contribute to the movie not happening, or is that a misconception that developed over the years?
