“when life leaves us blind, love keeps us kind” || my life basically revolves around Linkin Park, Dead Sara, @bolognafc1909 , Supernatural, and playing bass.
Billie Jean is from the album Thriller (1982), the best-selling album in history, but the moment that eternalized the track was the solo performance in the special Motown 25 recorded on March 25, 1983. Michael Jackson, only 24, hardly wanted to participate in the show. Berry Gordy had to insist a lot. He chose "Billie Jean" because he thought the other tracks from when he was younger didn't match his new style. Michael performed the song with impeccable choreography and, in the middle of the track, debuted the moonwalk for the first time on world television, a step he had learned from street dancers years earlier.
This performance changed the history of music: it was the moment when Michael stopped being "the boy of the Jackson 5" and became the King of Pop. The special was shown in May 1983 and seen by more than 47 million people, to this day it is considered one of the greatest live performances of all time.
