This song makes me want to dance no matter where I am. It’s just the perfect tempo, not too fast and too slow. This is the Michael Jackson that I like. After Thriller, his cool stock went down for me, and I pretty much jumped on the Prince bandwagon. Anyway, this is Michael at his best; looks that is…

He was so much cuter before he had the work done. When my son was little, if the Rock With You video came on, he’d watch it. When he was a little older and I explained to him that the guy in the later Michael videos, that he didn’t like, was the same one as in this video, he’d shake his head and say, “No.”
But Michael is Michael, and we all have our issues to deal with. Nothing takes a way talent.
I’m glad you combined the two post otherwise I may have missed all the great Essence pics.

I agree with you. This is IMO the best Michael jackson period, his best adult work and stage persona.

He must have had no idea just how much his fans loved this look. Mike was fine back in the day. I was a MJ stan… until Purple Rain came out. I’d always been an equal fan of the two but once Prince started doing interviews (remember when he wouldn’t talk? LOL) it was all over for Mike.
Happy OSF MrsG!
