The only thing that would get me to listen to Michael Jackson again is commentary as intelligent as this is. Thanks, Tom.

Lots and lots of production on that album. I remember when it came out. The dance (in a parking garage?) reminded me of the scene in the first film West Side Story when Riff is dead and the Jets congregate in a warehouse and dance and sing to Cool. I loved it. When Jackson turned into a monster, it scared my youngest so badly. But he still wanted MIchael's glove for Xmas!
