I watched this live the night it happened! Jackson was an innovator who pioneered many dance moves and different sounds. One of my favorites is the “anti-gravity lean,” shown here in the “Smooth Criminal” video.

“Billie Jean” is from Michael Jackson’s 1982 album Thriller, but the performance that permanently transformed the song into a cultural phenomenon came at the Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever television special, recorded on March 25, 1983. Michael, only 24 at the time, was initially reluctant to participate but eventually agreed after Motown founder Berry Gordy and the show's producers persuaded him to take part. He chose “Billie Jean” to showcase his new artistic identity rather than simply revisit the Jackson 5 material that had made him famous. Michael's performance combined precise choreography, his distinctive vocal style and a dazzling stage presence, culminating in his now-legendary moonwalk during the song's performance. The move itself had existed in various forms before Michael adopted it, but he had learned and refined his version with dancers including Jeffrey Daniel, turning it into one of the most recognizable dance moves in pop culture. When Motown 25 aired on May 16, 1983, it attracted more than 47 million viewers in the US.

DO You know that MICHAEL JACKSON was not the first person to do the Moonwalk dance. In 1982, Jeffrey Daniels of Shalamar stunned audiences with his legendary moonwalk on Top of the Pops, HIS performance was so good that they asked him to come back and perform it again the following week. Not long after, he went on to choreograph for Michael Jackson and even taught him that very move. Michael was just lucky to have popularized it. Now that’s a dance revolution! 💫
