I know he has been a bit of a freak, and some of his actions have been questionable, but can I say I am a little sad? This is crazy! I feel like I see so much of my childhood flashing back. Why? Because I am a dancer. Much of my life has been about being a dancer. And as a dancer, I have had more dance routines choreographed to his music than I can count; starting from elementary school talent shows. Even my High School dance instructor was in the "Black & White" video and I believe toured with him as well. You have to acknowledge he is mad talented and what we see and hear in music & dancing today we owe much to him. So many mimic his work. He changed the industry. Remember Captain Eo? LOVED IT! Anyway...pretty crazy.Thursday, June 25, 2009
