I have this relationship with music. I always have. I love it! I listen to every note, every background vocal, every instrument. When I hear something I like, you can be sure that I’m listening to it over and over again! I have been sharing my love of music with my kids. From jazz to pop, they’re listening to it. I love that they request their favorite songs! One of their favorites is Pharrell’s “Happy”. That used to be our get up and get moving song in the morning. NOw it’s this Michael Jackson song. They want to hear it over and over. I LOVE this song. It reminds me of the old Michael Jackson. It reminds me of the MJ I was crazy about. I want my kids to get to know THAT Michael!
My son has watched a few videos of Micheal Jackson performances. He stands there with his arms folded and watches every step. He says, “that was so cool!”. He asked me who that mans is. I told him it was Michael Jackson. He said, “who is he?” My response? Only the greatest entertainer ever! Enjoy this feel good song with me. It’s time for a dance party!
What’s something you love that you’re sharing with your kids?

My boys have inherited my love of Michael Jackson. He is/was so amazing and I listen to his music all the time 🙂

I loved Michael Jackson in his early days… then he got so different that I couldn’t handle him… he still could belt out a good song though.

My son loves Usher and Pharrell. He loves most upbeat music (and we share that interest in our house.)
That’s super cute…we are trying to share our love of sleeping with our son but it’s not catching!!! Happy weekending!!!
We love music and dancing in our house. Mostly, we listen to country.

I have a love for music as well. I like it all from grunge to opera.
I haven’t heard this song yet but now I need to. Right now I’m sharing my love of ice cream with my daughter!

My kids have definitely inherited my love of praise and worship music. Tonight as we were walking through the local mall, I could hear my 5yo singing one of our favorite songs softly. It was touching.

My boys love music as well and I enjoy introducing them to some of my favorites. I also enjoy introducing them to my favorite foods and local hangouts.

Do you know Michael has that effect on every kid?! I had that same energy when I was a kid and its good to know that even after death kids are still loving him even though they didnt know his work before death.
I love MJ but that hologram performance at the Billboard awards freak me out! Love live MJ in our hearts!
I love Paul Simon and now my five-year old will say, “Play Paul Simon on the iPad.” There are a number of likes I have that have been instilled in my boys. I think that’s so important!
I love sharing my favorite books with my kids. My daughter loves books so it’s fun watching her read my childhood faves.

Thanks for sharing this video. I have never seen it before. Love the combination of Justin Timberlake and Michael Jackson.
I had the pop music channel on in the background one morning when this song came on. I was in another room and I remember thinking, “Wow, this song sounds like Michael!” I had to run out to check the track title and artist and sure enough! I love me some MJ!

I have songs that I can listen to a million times over. Music is always there to either calm me, entertain me, or excite me. Great song! I’ll always love Michael Jackson!!

Pookah loves and is obsessed by MJ! To hear him sing it in his sweet voice makes me a proud Mama Bear!

I enjoy music also but reading is my thing. That is what I share with my son. We love going to the book store.

I am a big music person myself. I was fortunate to have a lot of musical training as a child and the things I learned have stuck with me throughout my life. I love the video because I have a weakness for JT.

Nia’s obsessed with MJ too – even when she was just 1 and 2 years old she couldn’t get enough! In her mind he’s alive and relevant and my husband and I talk about how sad she’ll probably be when she grows up and learns his full story. For now we just love watching her dance to her heart’s content to his music and try to copy his moves!
I think Friday Dance Parties are always a good idea! Even my baby girl loves dancing to MJ

I love this! Thanks!
My kids all love Michael Jackson. I think it’s funny because I was a kid when I liked him so I find it hard to believe they like him now, so may years later.
I love a good dance party! I have been rocking out to Beyonce’s Love on Top lately.

I love some MJ! I may not have agreed with everything he did personally, but he was the greatest entertainer.

I was a huge Michael Jackson fan as a child, but grew out of it when he got older and I got older. I am addicted to music, every night about 4 or 5pm, I am in the kitchen cooking and making school lunches with the music on!
