Music reviews : Michael Jackson and family books available now in portuguese: We all know about the fire incident that happened during the filming of a Pepsi advert. His hair caught alight when a scheduled explosion fired too early which resulted in second and third degree burns to his face and scalp. But it’s a little known fact that Michael Jackson wore wigs from 1984 onward. Rumour has it, he even had his hairline permanently tattooed onto his head after the accident.
Music reviews : Michael Jackson kids today and his top albums: On the whole, Michael feels rather dull. Vocally, he’s on target the majority of the time, with the exception of the still manufactured-sounding, “Breaking News”, but musically it’s far from impressive. So many of the beats sound so derivative that it lacks any evolution, which is what Jackson was always about. Look at the transition between Off the Wall and Thriller, or better yet, Bad to Dangerous. He went from disco to ’80s synth, from hair metal aesthetics to New jack swing. What’s more, he always surrounded himself with the most top notch, key players in any industry. Do you think it was by chance that Jackson hired the likes of Macaulay Culkin or Michael Jordan for his videos? Remember, it was the early ’90s, those guys were just as much royalty as he was. The same went for Slash, or Eddie Van Halen, or Martin Scorcese, or Teddy Riley. That’s what’s missing on Michael.
Forever, Michael (1975): In the wake of Music & Me, a maturing Michael began to find his voice here. And while this set is filled with stunning vocals, making it a technically sound record, overall it’s pretty forgettable. It’s a solid if unspectacular effort that served as an appetizer for the musical feast that was soon to come. Forgotten Favorites: “We’re Almost There,” “One Day In Your Life,” “Dear Michael”.

About Michael Jackson: In an interview given shortly after the release of Dangerous, Jackson said that his goal was to do “an album that was like Tchaikovsky’s ‘Nutcracker Suite.’ In a thousand years from now, people would still be listening to it…. Something that would live forever.” He’s been gone for over half a decade, but I still think about this quote every time I walk past that sound stage—considering the possibilities that Michael Jackson unlocked in every song, the infinite magic that he could create out of an empty room, the orphic visions of one of our final myths.
A segunda parte da autobiografia dividida em três partes de Mocienne Petit Jackson começa com uma extensiva descrição do rapto de Mocienne e da sua vida nos Países Baixos. Subsequentemente, nós lemos como se tornou a vida de Mocienne com a sua família adotiva – com a qual ela e a sua prima Délivrance ficaram. Gradualmente, ela descobre que o seu verdadeiro pai é o Michael Jackson. Aos 15 anos, ela deixa a sua família adotiva e passa a viver num internato, durante 4 anos, até arranjar um sítio próprio para si. Nós seguimos o seu trajeto desde o final da sua adolescência até entrar na idade adulta – que não foi fácil. A Mocienne encontra um homem com quem tem um filho. Contudo, o compromisso não dura. Ficamos a saber que ela teve problemas com os Serviços de Proteção de Crianças, que foram seguidos de vários casos em tribunal. Inicialmente, os casos em tribunal estavam relacionados com a sua própria situação, mas, mais tarde, tornaram-se numa batalha pelo seu filho. A uma situação inaceitável seguiu-se outra situação inaceitável. Também ficamos a saber sobre os muitos eventos traumáticos da personagem principal, as suas depressões e as suas lutas constantes para processar a miséria ligada à sua vida bem como para a ultrapassar. A escritora claramente explica essas lutas através de flashbacks vívidos : THRILLER O LADO OBSCURO DOS PAÍSES BAIXOS (Portuguese Edition).
