I've *almost* cherry picked my favourite tracks, however I've gone through all of these videos so they all work & tried my best to include the official videos.

 

This post is for the people who may not have known of Michaels best tracks. There's a lot of musical influence from all genres in these songs so it's a great inspiration.

 

The speed demon video being an old classic I totally forgot about. Check it out!

 

Scream

 

Who Is It (my personal favourite)

 

Liberian Girl (personal Favourite)

 

Thriller

 

Earth (again, another favourite of mine Inc video)

 

Beat It

 

Smooth Criminal

 

Man In The Mirror (again, another favourite of mine)

 

Speed Demon

 

Dangerous

 

In The Closet

 

Heal The World

 

I Just Can't Stop Loving You

 

Dirty Diana

Bad

 

Give In To Me

 

Will You Be There

 

The Way You Make Me Feel

Shortly after Thriller came out in the UK in 1984 , Lenny Henry did a parody of it on the BBC.

 

I was about 10 when I saw it, and it always stuck in head, so that even today when I hear Thriller I think of the line

 

"these guys are really frightening, and they look as if they're fans ... of Aston Villa!"

(cue zombies waving Aston Villa. scarves)

 

So here is the Lenny Henry version (the premise is, Lenny starts as a werewolf and then changes into MJ when he sees the moon)

 

 

this is pretty terrible 80's bbc comedy, but it is notable for:

- inclusion of british comedy 'memes' of the day (wheelclamps, david bellamy, etc)

- really over the top audience laughter

- it shows that even around the time of thriller MJ was already considered 'wierd' by the media and was being lampooned (the video mentions anorexia that he allegedly suffered from, paranoia, and being a jehovah's witness)

 

(no undue disrepect to MJ, I'm mainly posting this as an interesting historical document rather than for a lol)
