Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009) was an
American singer, dancer and entertainer. Referred to as the King of Pop, he
remains the most successful entertainer of all time, and one of the most
influential. His contributions to music, dance and fashion,a long with a much
publicized personal life, made him a global figure in popular culture for over
four decades.
Alongside his brothers, he made his debut as lead singer and youngest
member of The Jackson 5 in 1964. He began his solo career in 1971. His
1982 album Thriller remains the best-selling album ever, with Off the Wall
(1979), Bad (1987), Dangerous (1991) and HIStory (1995) also among the
world's best-selling albums. He is widely credited with having transformed
the music video from a promotional tool into an art form with videos for his
songs such as "Billie Jean", "Beat It" and "Thriller" making him the first
African American artist to amass a strong crossover following on MTV. With
stage performances and music videos, Jackson popularized a number of
physically complicated dance techniques, such as the robot and the
moonwalk. His distinctive musical sound, vocal style, and choreography, is
credited with stretching across and breaking down cultural, racial, economic,
generational, and global barriers that has inspired countless pop, rock, R&B
and hip hop artists.

I Said Don't Mind, But What Do You Mean I Am The One
Who Will Dance On The Floor In The Round

She Told Me Her Name Was Billie Jean, As She Caused A Scene
Then Every Head Turned With Eyes That Dreamed Of Being The One
Who Will Dance On The Floor In The Round
[Bridge]
People Always Told Me Be Careful Of What You Do
And Don't Go Around Breaking Young Girls' Hearts
And Mother Always Told Me Be Careful Of Who You Love
And Be Careful Of What You Do 'Cause The Lie Becomes The Truth
[Chorus]
Billie Jean Is Not My Lover
She's Just A Girl Who claims That I Am The One
But The Kid Is Not My Son
She Says I Am The One, But The Kid Is Not My Son
[3rd Verse]
For Forty Days And Forty Nights
The Law Was On Her Side
But Who Can Stand When She's In Demand
Her Schemes And Plans
'Cause We Danced On The Floor In The Round
So Take My Strong Advice, Just Remember To Always Think Twice
(Do Think Twice)
[4th Verse]
She Told My Baby We'd Danced 'Till Three
Then She Looked At Me
Then Showed A Photo My Baby Cried
His Eyes Looked Like Mine
Go On Dance On The Floor In The Round, Baby

People Always Told Me Be Careful Of What You Do
And Don't Go Around Breaking Young Girls' Hearts
She Came And Stood Right By Me
Then The Smell Of Sweet Perfume
This Happened Much Too Soon
She Called Me To Her Room
[Chorus]
Billie Jean Is Not My Lover
She's Just A Girl Who claims That I Am The One
But The Kid Is Not My Son
Billie Jean Is Not My Lover
She's Just A Girl Who claims That I Am The One
But The Kid Is Not My Son
She Says I Am The One, But The Kid Is Not My Son
She Says I Am The One, But The Kid Is Not My Son
Billie Jean Is Not My Lover
She's Just A Girl Who claims That I Am The One
But The Kid Is Not My Son
She Says I Am The One, But The Kid Is Not My Son
She Says I Am The One, She Says He Is My Son
She Says I Am The One
Billie Jean Is Not My Lover

They told him don't you ever come around here
Don't wanna see your face, you better disappear
The fire's in their eyes and their words are really clear
So beat it, just beat it
Beat it
You better run, you better do what you can
Don't wanna see no blood, don't be a macho man
You wanna be tough, better do what you can
So beat it, but you wanna be bad
Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
No one wants to be defeated
Showin' how funky and strong is your fight
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
Just beat it, beat it
Just beat it, beat it
Just beat it, beat it
Just beat it, beat it
They're out to get you, better leave while you can
Don't wanna be a boy, you wanna be a man
You wanna stay alive, better do what you can
So beat it, just beat it
You have to show them that you're really not scared
You're playin' with your life, this ain't no truth or dare
They'll kick you, then they beat you,
Then they'll tell you it's fair
So beat it, but you wanna be bad
Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
No one wants to be defeated
Showin' how funky and strong is your fight
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
No one wants to be defeated
Showin' how funky and strong is your fight
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right

Michael Jackson was born on August 29, 1958, as the eighth of ten children
in Gary, Indiana, an industrial suburb of Chicago, to an African American
working-class family. His mother, Katherine Esther Scruse, was a devout
Jehovah's Witness, and his father, Joseph Walter "Joe" Jackson, a steel mill
worker who performed with an R&B band called The Falcons. Jackson had
three sisters: Rebbie, La Toya, and Janet, and six brothers: Jackie, Tito,
Jermaine, Marlon, Brandon (Marlon's twin brother, who died shortly after
birth) and Randy.
Jackson had a troubled relationship with his father, Joe. He stated that he
was physically and emotionally abused during incessant rehearsals, with
whippings, and name-calling, though he admitted his father's strict discipline
played a large role in his success. In one altercation recalled by Marlon,
Joseph held Michael upside down by one leg and "pummeled him over and
over again with his hand, hitting him on his back and buttocks". Joseph
would also grab his sons and push them with great force against the wall.
One night while Michael was asleep, Joseph climbed into his room through
the bedroom window, wearing a fright mask and screamed, in hopes to
scare him. He said he wanted to teach the children not to leave the window
open when they went to sleep. For years afterward, Jackson said he
suffered nightmares about being kidnapped from his bedroom.Joseph
acknowledged in 2003 that he regularly whipped Jackson as a child.

In 1982, Jackson contributed the song "Someone In the Dark" to the storybook for the
film E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial; the record won a Grammy for Best Album for Children.
That same year Jackson issued his second Epic album, Thriller, which surprisingly
became the most commercially successful album of all time with nearly no promotion.
The album remained in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 for 80 consecutive weeks and
37 of those weeks at the peak position. It was the first album to have seven Billboard
Hot 100 top 10 singles, including "Billie Jean", "Beat It," and "Wanna Be Startin'
Somethin'."THriller was certified for 29 million shipments by the RIAA, giving it
Double Diamond status in the United States. It is the best-selling album of all time in
the United States. It was, and currently remains, the best-selling album of all time,
with 110 million copies worldwide. Jackson's attorney John Branca noted that
Jackson had the highest royalty rate in the music industry at that point: approximately
$2 for every album sold. He was also making record-breaking profits from sales of
CDs and The Making of Michael Jackson's Thriller, a documentary produced by
Jackson and John Landis. Funded by MTV, the documentary sold over 350,000
copies in a few months. The era saw the arrival of novelties like dolls modeled after
Michael Jackson, which appeared in stores in May 1984 at a price of $12. Biographer
J. Randy Taraborrelli writes that, "Thriller stopped selling like a leisure item — like a
magazine, a toy, tickets to a hit movie — and started selling like a household staple.

9. • On January 27, 1984, Michael and other members of the
Jacksons filmed a Pepsi Cola commercial, overseen by
executive Philip Dusenberry, at the Shrine Auditorium in
Los Angeles. In front of a full house of fans during a
simulated concert, pyrotechnics accidentally set
Jackson's hair on fire. He suffered second-degree burns
to his scalp. Jackson underwent treatment to hide the
scars on his scalp, and he also had his third rhinoplasty
shortly thereafter. Jackson never recovered from this
injury. Pepsi settled out of court, and Jackson donated
his $1.5 million settlement to the Brotman Medical
Center in Culver City, California, which now has a
"Michael Jackson Burn Center" in honor of his donation.

10. • nlike later albums, Thriller did not have an official tour to
promote it, but the 1984 Victory Tour, headlined by The
Jacksons, showcased much of Jackson's new solo
material to more than two million Americans. He donated
all the funds (around $8 million) raised from the Victory
Tour to charity.He also co-wrote the charity single "
We Are the World" in 1985 with Lionel Richie, which was
released worldwide to aid the poor in the U.S. and Africa.
It became one of the best-selling singles of all time, with
nearly 30 million copies sold and millions of dollars
donated to famine relief.

12. There comes a time
When we head a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
And it's time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift of all
We are the World
We can't go on
Pretneding day by day
That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
We are all a part of
God's great big family
And the truth, you know love is all we need
[Chorus]
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
Send them your heart
So they'll know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us by turning stone to bread
So we all must lend a helping hand
[Chorus]
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
When you're down and out
There seems no hope at all
But if you just believe
There's no way we can fall
Well, well, well, well, let us realize
That a change will only come
When we stand together as one
[Chorus]
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day

13. • Moonwalker, also known as Michael Jackson:
Moonwalker, is an American film released in 1988 by
singer Michael Jackson.
• Rather than featuring one continuous narrative, the film
is a collection of short films about Jackson, several of
which are long-form music videos from Jackson's Bad
album. The film is named after the dance technique
known as the moonwalk, which was one of his trademark
moves. The name of the dance move was dubbed by the
media, not by Jackson himself; however, he did choose
the title of the film himself.

In March 2009, Jackson announced in a press conference at
London's O2 arena that he would perform there in major comeback
concerts titled This Is It. The shows were to be Jackson's first major
series of concerts since the HIStory World Tour finished in 1997,
and had been cited as one of the year's most important musical
events with over one million people attending in total. Jackson
suggested possible retirement after the shows; in his own words it
would be his "final curtain call". Although initially a 10 date concert, it
was increased to 50 dates after record breaking ticket sales.
Jackson rehearsed in Los Angeles in the weeks leading up to the
tour under the direction of choreographer/director Kenny Ortega.
The concerts would have commenced on July 13, 2009 and finished
on March 6, 2010. Less than three weeks before the first show was
due to begin in London and with all concerts being sold out, Jackson
died of a cardiac arrest.

On June 25, 2009, Jackson never woke up from his evening sleep at his rented mansion at 100
North Carolwood Drive in the Holmby Hills district of Los Angeles. Attempts at resuscitating him
by his personal physician were unsuccessful.[164] Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics
received a 911 call at 12:22 p.m. (PDT), arriving three minutes later at Jackson's location.] He
was reportedly not breathing and CPR was performed. Resuscitation efforts continued en route
to the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, and for an hour after arriving there at 1:13 p.m.
(20:13 UTC).[164] He was pronounced dead at 2:26 p.m. local time (21:26 UTC).[The memorial
was held on July 7, 2009, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, preceded by a private family
service at Forest Lawn Memorial Park's Hall of Liberty. Jackson's casket was present during the
memorial but no information was released about the final disposition of the body. While some
unofficial reports claimed a worldwide audience as high as one billion people] the U.S. audience
was estimated by Nielsen to be 31.1 million, an amount comparable to the estimated 35.1 million
that watched the 2004 burial of former president Ronald Reagan, and the estimated 33.1 million
Americans who watched the 1997 funeral for Princess Diana.[171]
Stevie Wonder, Lionel Richie, Mariah Carey, John Mayer, Jennifer Hudson, Usher, Jermaine
Jackson, and Shaheen Jafargholi performed at the event. Berry Gordy and Smokey Robinson
gave eulogies, while Queen Latifah read, "We had him," a poem written for the occasion by
Maya Angelou. The Reverend Al Sharpton received a standing ovation with cheers when he told
Jackson's children, "Wasn't nothing strange about your Daddy. It was strange what your Daddy
had to deal with. But he dealt with it anyway. Jackson's 11-year-old daughter, Paris Katherine,
cried as she told the crowd, "Ever since I was born, Daddy has been the best father you could
ever imagine ... I just wanted to say I love him ... so much.]

On August 24, multiple news outlets quoted anonymous sources as stating
that the Los Angeles coroner had decided to treat Jackson's death as a
homicide; this was later confirmed by the coroner on August 28. At the time
of death, Jackson had been administered propofol, lorazepam and
midazolam. Law enforcement officials are currently conducting a
manslaughter investigation of his personal physician, Conrad Murray.
Jackson was buried on September 3, 2009, at Forest Lawn Memorial Park
in Glendale, California.
