No matter what jokes have come out since, and no matter what may or may not be true legally speaking, in the eighties, Michael Jackson was IT. His “Thriller” album, as I recall, only had ONE song on it that didn’t hit the charts. Everyone was trying, and failing, to do the Moonwalk. This video, “Beat It”, was one of his most famous. Gotta face it, that boy can dance.

Even Weird Al had to get in on this, and he did a great parody song that most of the nation played till they were sick of it…. “Eat It”. Really, when you compare the two videos, Weird Al did an incredible job. I used to have this album, and I distinctly recall a thanks to Michael being printed on the sleeve somewhere.
