That look he gives when he says "I haven't done anything, it's just the beginning" is chilling. It's the start of greatness. Bad, History, Invincible....
iloveyou75204 Actually it WAS the start of his greatness because he is literally the only artist who stayed relevant for 5 decades in a row. He is the only artist who sold out stadiums from 10 years old all the way up to 50 years old. He accomplished a TON after thriller and to imagine if MJ would have just quit after Thriller - it would have been selling himself short. The reason why MJ still has fans now is because he DIDN'T quit after thriller. Without Bad we wouldn't have great inspiring songs like Man IN The Mirror. With out Dangerous there would be no iconic Remember the Time which was the STAPLE of the 90s. No iconic Superbowl performance. No iconic MTV awards performances. Or Grammy Awards. Some of the best things captured in pop culture history. Some of the best number 1 hit songs came out since thriller by him. Not everything is about record sales. And the fact that he received adulation and sold out stadiums DESPITE all the hardships makes his career that much more successful. Its easy to make the winning shot when there are no other players standing in your way. MJ was doing it and never gave up even though he had players coming at him from all sides. MJ was an inspiration to many because of this alone. And if anything MJ is trying to teach people that you should never sell yourself short, even when the odds are against you. Even when kept telling him he couldn't do this and that and the other. Yes he may have failed at beating thriller in sales but he WON in so many other things. The demand for MJ was proven with the reception of This Is It. MJ went out swinging.
***** Nope, Thriller was, which is why it's the best selling album of all time, leaving Bad, Dangerous, History, and Invincible forever trying to keep up. The record sells speck for itself. But we are all entitled to our own opinion. Chao :)
Sales dont always mean it's the best. Call Me Maybe sold tons too - doesn't make it legendary Many factorsmake an Thriller amazing - not just sales. And just cuz the others didn't sell as much as thriller doesn't make them any worse. The music industry changed and the way people buy music changed significantly and of course MJ's PR issues had an affect but that all has nothing to do with music quality. Also the are amazing albums that are not mainstream. Thriller was completely mainstream. Later on MJ made less-mainstream work, but that doesn't make it worse than thriller. It makes it less mainstream than thriller lol
Yols Says you. Who are you to tell that records that sell a lot doesn't make a record great, you sound like an idiot, lol. Which other way would make a record great but by sells? It sells because people like it. They spend their money on it and make it sell. No album can be great no other way but to sell, you sound silly, lol. The record industry considers a record who sells a lot a success and are rewarded for it with grammy awards, which was MJ's case, in which he won 8 grammies for his Thriller album selling many records. The other records didn't sell as much because Thriller was just better, that's all. You say the music industry changed, lol, I don't think the music industry changed in 1987 from 1983, the music industry was exactly the same during that 80's period. Thriller just sold more records than Bad, because Thriller was better that's all. Bad was mainstream, with Come Together, Dirty Diana, etc., more so than Thriller, including a lot of the Beatles and Elvis albums, but they still didn't sell as much records as Thriller. Thriller was just a better album to the buyers, that's all, lol. No matter which way you put it, Thriller is the best, and still is the best selling album of all time, period, whether you like it or not, lol, deal with it.
He looks so natural and acts so normal you'd want to hug him instantly. He would have made a great friend and listener as well as a wonderful and interesting person to listen to. He also sounds so relaxed, full of "energy", of magic, as he says, so young and free. He clearly needed to talk, to be listened to, to tell stories, to express himself without having to think twice of what he was saying to who. He just looked like a very intelligent young man willing to be a friend and to have one to talk to and laugh with. And he's just eternal in this attempt to be himself against all odds. 💙
Damn the people who turned his life into a living Hell. I agree with you. I have noticed that some people look at Michael, or hear his name, and think about the musical legend he was, the groundbreaking and electric performer he turned out to be, a man who set the world on fire with his talent, a cute sexy guy who had a sweet soul, a true inspiration, and a man who loved all walks of life. However, others may see a man who wore heavy makeup, bleached his skin, overdid his face with plastic surgery and a man who was a Pedo. It took me a while to realise that these claims say nothing about Michael, but a lot about the person who holds the opinion. Their hate is a reflection of their ugly hearts.
The saying 'you sleep with dogs you get fleas' applies in this case. Like most celebs Michael Jackson was in bed, so to speak, with a lot of dogs. I've often wondered what it'd be like to have the money Jackson and many other famous celebs have but then I look at how things play out for some of them and I'm glad I'm not in their situation. It isn't worth it to sell your soul for any of what's to come along with that lifestyle.
He was joking,their speaking voices are very similar thats why he said it.It's clearly a very brother/sister complex and context...like one sibling saying "ugh yo momma get on my nerves" to another or a twin saying "i hate your nose etc" to the other
Then the remark after it. “You sound like Carol Burnett” hahahahaha funny because he and the Jacksons performed for her & with her a few times growing up 😂
michael was a good guy. when you look at this interview and his most recent one before passing he was still the same, he didnt change at all. he was a good man
true...his appearance changed over the course of time because he's an artist to the core, visionary, dreamer, innovator, creative ...BUT he remained beautiful inside ❤️ now that's integrity ✨
"I havent done it all.. there's so much more..." "I don't like when people limit themselves" that's why he's the greatest at what he does!!! Broke more and more records later 👏🏾👏🏾
***** I think people take things he says sometimes way too seriously. lol I took that to mean his favorite race besides his own. The fact that he says 'the darker they are the more beautiful' should rest everyone assured that he likes black people and his own race :P
***** I know. Michael Jackson had all that talent and didn't even love his own race. He didn't like being black. It's a sin to hate your own self. Michael Jackson was a talented man. I just wish he loved his self. He was a FINE!!!!!!!!!!! black man when he was black. I hated when he turned his self white.
he didn't hate his race and he didn't turn himself white. He had a skin disorder called vitiligo which he has said for years, and it was proven in the autopsy report. He's said it time and time again over the years that he is proud to be black.
Yols Michael Jackson said his favorite race is East Indian that is not Black American. That is a different race. He didn't mention at all in this youtube video that he loved his own black American race. He didn't like being Black American. I don't know why he loved the East Indian race because some of their people are darker than some black Amercian people. It's just sad Michael felt that way about his own black American race.
LynnisaPizza WHO THE HELL!!!!!!! DO YOU THINK YOU ARE TALKING TO? YOU DON'T TELL ME TO SHUT THE FUCK UP!!! YOU NEED TO GO TO HELL!!!!. I HAVE A RIGHT TO MY OPINION. SO GO TO HELL!!!. THIS IS THE REASON WHY MOST BLACK PEOPLE CAN'T GET ALONG WITH EACH OTHER BECAUSE WE ARE ALWAY'S DISRRESPECTING EACH OTHER. I HATE BLACK WOMEN LIKE YOU!!!!!!. GO TO HELL!!!
@@jackanthony976 though I prefer Michael a lot more than Cardi, *they aren't even comparable lol* I like her too. She sure does shout rant and get into feuds enough but she's quite honest and straight forward. I love the fact that Michael was so angelic and gentle but I'd have been happier if he was a little harder or rash. He was all nice and naive and all and they took advantage of him, his weakness. They tried to tarnish his name and then killed him eventually. They can't easily do that with a person like Cardi lol. She won't just have it. I honestly wish Michael had a touch of Cardi in him, if yk what I mean 💔
7:07 - 7:10 Look at him clapping his hands to make a beat. Like that was just for fun and random. But look how easily he did that without even thinking. Not messing up at all on his first try right there. Idk but it looks impressive to me. I can't do that with my hands THAT easily. It looks like he just had skill overall.
Excellent observation! Michael was such a naturally gifted musician. His distinctly unique singing voice and art of movement was above and beyond excellence. Oh how I miss MJJ. 🤍
Latoya- I'd like to be right now where you are, that's my biggest dream. Michael-......she keeps saying that. Latoya- because you've done it all, practically! Michael- I haven't done it all. (Releases Thriller, becomes a superstar) 😌
Sydney O'Bier Thriller was already out with this interview, but I get what you're saying. Michael was just humble. Prior to Thriller Michael was already a superstar, afterwards he became the biggest star in the world.
Lyrica81 oh crap lol, someone on here said thriller wasn't out yet in this interview, my bad. But if there's any word to describe him, humble is definitely the word!
You know, its kinda of ironic watching this vid because before I watched this I already had the opinion that LaToya Jackson really wanted the spotlight and she says it right here about wanting to be him. His response was so real, "She keeps saying that..." Like she's already said this either to him or he's heard it through the grapevine and then when its serious on camera when he asks what are your dreams she says it again. Fame is a drug, everybody swear they can handle it
Daniel Ramírez omg give the augment a rest you just envy that's all stupid u wish u was Mike you wish you has his success. Keep your envy Shit to your self. It's sounds like a personal problem you have
Latoya: It's Cold, Michael... Michael: (shocked she said that) No It Isn't. It's Magic! How Could You Say It's Cold. It's A Wonderful Night. It's Magic Out Here... LMAO! Too adorable. I will FOREVER love this man. He died on my 20th birthday. Worse birthday ever. REST IN PEACE MICHAEL JACKSON!
Goodness. Just so amazing, his energy, smile, voice etc is contagious. I don't understand how anyone could speak negatively about him...one of the sweetest and lovable humans ever.
Some people never like good things. They are fond of garbage. MJ was precious and he was treasure to the whole universe. Never expect good things from bad people.
My sister was a big fan also. When Michael made the BAD video it was walking distance from our house!! My sister nearly lost her mind. We saw him numerous times going back and forth into his trailer
Yes, he was very handsome. He looked the best around this time. It kills me too that he couldn't see that. It lets you know how much he internalized the things that were said to him by Joseph and how it was so engrained into his mind that he was ugly. It's sad.
I understand him. When I was a kid and experienced a lot of trauma, I was able to visit different worlds. Michael is a professional astral projector, and finds creativity by visiting other worlds. He dropped a lot of gems in this interview❤ He was serious when he said he better not think to hard about flying out of his body !
They seemed close. It's such a shame that bastard Jack Gordon came along and ruined so much for so long. I'm glad La Toya was able to escape him and make up with Michael in the end. Also, I still can't get over how alike they look. Out of all his siblings, La Toya looks the most like Michael. Even today she looks just like him.
bexie1989 Not sure how you can make up with a sibling who went on national televison and straight up called you a child molestor....I couldn't believe it...
He was so genuine! The first part hit me, i know exactly what he’s talking about feeling the energy. I get it. When I’m in nature I feel naturally high. I swear I could have listened to him talk for ages.
He was very zen... in tune with the Creator and the universe. Grateful for everything around him. His energy and spirit is amazing. Contagious even just watching him on a blurry video. ❤️
5:17 Latoya: "you've done it all" MJ: "no i haven't done it all" *"THERE'S SO MUCH MORE TO COME"* 👑 Even before Michael warned us to hold our wigs for a LEGENDARY ARTIST that he will become👑
This video captured such precious moments. They both looked so young, and Michael seemed at peace. You can tell all of the siblings were probably really close at one time. It's so sad how everyone slowly went their separate ways, and how Michael's life continued to go downhill
He is high on magic in this interview and I can't stop smiling cause its so cute 😍. He just starts dancing randomly and. *"your voice is very irritating"* kills me everytime
The beginning of this video soothes me so much, listening to the water in the back and Michael's soft sweet voice. Ugh he's too cute for words, I can't stand it.
Seeing the love they had was very enduring. No matter what family is family. When he called her a idiot I damn fell out lmao. He was undeniablely beautiful😚💟💋💙
This is such a beautiful moment between LaToya and Michael. I'm so happy they shared this. They have a gentleness and realness that's exists between siblings. Priceless!
2:55 Michael: "I was just talking about the dusk and the magic of dawn... will you be quiet you fat head rascal" only Michael can say such a random thing and still sound so incredibly adorable, funny and a breath of fresh air.
Latoya: "Michael, I am soaked I could kill you." *Latoya feels to see if Michael is wet* Latoya: "Are you wet?" Michael: "Of course honey." Lol, too cute, wish I could marry a man like Michael.
His smile lit up the world! He is so gorge here; its cute how both he and LaToya crossed their legs at the same time. Yas @ east Indians, very pretty people I concur!
The man was on another plane, on another plan...there is just something so special about him, and it's agony sinking into the realisation that the world abused him, abused the gifts he came to give. God bless him
