What a Thriller.........

I remember being a young girl, probably 8 or 9. Just falling asleep.......
In comes my dad, saying, "Amy wake up!"
I was bleary eyed.
"What Dad?"
"Come in here and watch the tv!"
There was Michael Jackson, singing on MTV, which was a brand new tv station!
It was the Billie Jean music video. Dancing on the lit-up side walk, with the leaves blowing in the breeze.

I will never forget it. This is where my interest in pop music culture began.

I begged for the Thriller album. My parents got it for me. It was treasured.

I was sad yesterday watching bits and pieces of the memorial. I have been listening to he music all week.

I love his music.
