"I read the news today oh boy ... "
Growing up in the late 80's early 90's, there were two "MJ's". If you were a basketball fan, the initials corresponded to Michael Jordan, if you weren't ... it was Michael Jackson.
Since the tragic news yesterday about the passing of Michael Jackson, rightfully so there have been tributes everywhere.
In basketball terms, Michael Jackson was the Jordan of the music world. (Side note: this would probably mean that Elvis was Wilt Chamberlain and the 60's Celtics were The Beatles.)
In '91 at the height of both their powers, the two MJ's combined in the video "Jam". It's still one of my favourite Michael Jackson songs and watching the video for the first time in ages gives me goosebumps.
Since the extended "official" video is un-embeddable, click here to see the full version and watch Jordan at his most awkward (in the last 2 minutes).
