Something that was really great to read on Reddit, and (at the moment) has 11,000 upvotes and counting! So this user had been deaf since he was a child, and only recently got a hearing aid for the first time - allowing him to finally hear his first song ever. In his words: "He played the song "We are the world" by Michael Jackson. It was overwhelming at first but I couldn't help but fall in love with the singer's voice. His voice somehow comforted me. I experienced the peace I never knew existed." He then went on to ask what other songs he should listen to. I know it's not just an MJ song, but this was really really awesome to hear! He then said later on in another comment, about other songs: "Most of them didn't give me any feeling except the confused feeling but whenever I listened to Michael Jackson songs, I got goosebumps (and sometimes I get scared) and I felt like my eyes could see more clearly."  You should all go check out his other comments - it's really cool to see someone experiencing the magic of Michael Jackson - and the inexplicable beauty that is music in general - for the first time  www.reddit.com/r/CasualConversation/comments/cdmcr1/i_just_heard_music_for_the_first_time_in_my_life/I could just cry! I'm lost for words. It's not just about MJ. I love hearing stories like this. That life can provide miracles sometimes. It reminds me that "life's still worthwhile" Good for him! |

I've been working in Seattle for the past few days. Last night I went to get drinks with some co-workers at a place called Lot 3. Soon after we walked in, I heard The Way You Make Me Feel playing.
I thought that was cool enough, but then a couple hours later right before we left I heard the Immortal version of Man In The Mirror. Needless to say, I prepped to play the air piano on the breakdown as soon as I realized which version it was lol.

Cute. This is Trottoir Caffe in Onesti, Romania.
I always find it amusing how much of the world doesn't give a shit about Leaving Neverland.

I know BTS are big but I don't know anything about them other than they don't shy away from being influenced by MJ. Doesn't surprise me that they don't give a fuck:

Absolutely and not to brag, but I KILLED it on air piano when the breakdown hit. |

Doesn't surprise me that they don't give a fuck: They were to contribute to an MJ song last year or so, I believe. One of Blackpink, Lisa, wore an MJ Thriller cover t shirt last year in a performance. My daughter loves K Pop and I'm always seeing thos acts doing little MJ moves. |

Yeah it's no different. As a fan it can still be a bit cool, but I don't really think it's as impressive as if it happened naturally y'know? Regardless of fanbase.
