Michael Jackson: HIStory on Film - Volume II

Michael Joseph Jackson (born in Gary, Indiana-1958) was an American singer, songwriter, record producer, dancer, and actor. Called the "King of Pop", his contributions to music, dance, and fashion, along with his highly-publicized personal life, made him a global figure in popular culture for over 4 decades.

Michael Jackson was inducted onto the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1980 as a member of the Jacksons and in 1984 as a solo artist. Throughout his career he received numerous honors and awards.

Jackson's awards include many Guinness World Records (8 in 2006 alone), including for the Most Successful Entertainer of All Time, and 13 Grammy Awards. Estimated sales of over 350 million records, worldwide, made Jackson one of the best-selling artists in modern music history.

In 2009 - Michael Jackson (50 at the time) died from heart failure due to medical negligence. Criminal charges of "involuntary manslaughter" were brought against those involved.

History-on film volume II was given to me as a gift when I was about 11 years old. At the time Michael Jackson had disappeared from the public since the birth of his 2 children.

This video was so cool and is unforgettable. Tracing back to the day's when Mj first became a mega star after his performance of Billie Jean on the Mowtown special to his amazing short films from the History album. You will be absolutly mezmorised by every music video especially (Well im my opinion) the 1995 MTV awards performance. This is an absolute must have for any MJ fans. 10/10

It does show some of the same stuff from Volume One, but it shows his best videos from his wonderful C.D. History. If you enjoy his music, then you will surely be grateful for this video or D.V.D. To Michael Jackson: The King Of Pop!

10/10

I will do this review on a video by video basis,

First of all I really didn't like the "teaser" because it made MJ look like a demigod and there was no real purpose to it except an ego trip 0/10.

video 1: BILLIE JEAN (from Motown 25h show) good performance of MJ being MJ 10/10

video 2: BEAT IT good video not enough MJ dancing 6/10

video 3: LIBERIAN GIRL what's this all about huh? MJ friends 4/10

video 4: SMOOTH CRIMINAL very good video. MJ at his very best 13/10

video 7: SCREAM (With Janet Jackson) strange video 5/10

video 8: CHILDHOOD okay song worse video 2/10

video 9: YOU ARE NOT ALONE can MJ become any whiter 6/10

video 10: EARTH SONG a okay song but a silly video a better one with a simular message is MAN IN THE MIRROR 4/10

video 11: THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT US (BRAZILIAN VERSION) 7/10

video 12: STRANGER IN MOSCOW sad video 8/10

video 13. BLOOD ON THE DANCE FLOOR (refugee mix) bad song/video 0/10

extro: BRACE YOURSELF CLIPS MJ concerts and things

video grade 85/130 or 7/10

A video of Michael Jackson songs . From the Billie Jean Motown performance to the effects of Thriller, they are all here . However as the tape goes on and you get to present day Jackson , there is an obvious fall in standards of the videos, especially the new ones .

And Jackson with full make-up and lipstick on for the final video , 'Blood on the Dancefloor' . Strictly for Jackson fans .
