Back in the day

I used to love Michael Jackson when he was still somewhat normal, with his original skin color and mostly original face.

I used to rent the "Making of Thriller" video up at Star Video (the first video store in the neighborhood!) all the time and wanted to own it but videos were so expensive back then. When Michael turned into the werewolf and said "go away" it always scared my little sisters.

I had this poster on my wall when I was a teenager:

I also had this one:


After "Thriller" my favorite video was "Say Say Say." Watch it and see how cute Michael was. Oh and don't be freaked out that his "love interest" was LaToya. Paul McCartney was so young!




I prefer not to remember Michael as a child abusing, anorexic, plastic surgery addict. But rather, I'm going to think of him like this: an uber-talented entertainer who made my teen years happy.
