King of pop moonwalking: Amazing!

A Twitter friend made me laugh today as she was saying how she attempted to moonwalk at work. It must have been hillarious. So I searched on You-Tube to see how the King moonwalks. And here's the clip that took my breath away. Where is the Michael Jackson that fascinated us in the eighties and early nineties? We had so many great artists with so much originality... after 1995 the music quality gradually declined and what we have now is mostly rubbish. I haven't bought an album (other than U2's) for a decade. It's sad. And it doesn't look as if there's any hope on the horizon, unless a one-hit-wonder is something you fancy. That's why let's moonwalk back in the golden era of Michael Jackson and enjoy his unique dance moves. We won't have another MJ in our lifetime.

I cant agree with you enoguh. Music sucks so hard now. Nothing original, everybody is just recycling old stuff. I only really download old music since the new stuff isnt even worth a free download...

I am gonna have fun checking out ur short stories section when I get the chance :D

Yea... See what happened to rap! In the 80's and early 90's it was all about critisizing society, it was intelligent, witty, unique. Now they became the society they were critisizing. The music is remixed old samples, the raps are all same about 'bi**es, bling-bling, cars and who's the gretaest player' (whatever that may mean). Rock is dead. Metal, Hard rock, too... It died with Kurt Cobain and Guns 'n' Roses... All we have is pop, rap and RNB. And a Justin Timberlake with his high-pitched voice trying to be all of that :) Anyway... regarding my 'short stories'. Please keep in mind I'm not a native English speaker, so it may not be all in perfect grammar. Plus the stories are cheesy, I like them that way. Is more for fun and includes many silly elements.

Good good. I was gonna bring up rap but wasnt sure if you knew about it. The golden era when Rakim, Ice Cube were fading out and Biggie, Nas, Jay-z Pac came out was sick.

Then it all came crashing down. Lyrics stopped mattering, people just making dumb dance music with corny hooks and catchy beats. Heck they even have ring tone rappers now LOL??

And dont worry about grammar and stuff. Ill try check some stuff out this week. Peace!
